The Sabbath Recorder A Seventh Day Baptst Weekly Publshed by the Amercan Sabbath Tract Socety, Planfeld, N. J. VOL. 100, No. 10 PLANFELD, N. J., MARCH 8, 1926 WHOLE No. 4,227-- aq God, we would reve1ence thee n all th), manfestatons! We pray for grace to conquer our. prejudces, for the ablty to see thy sprt n those from whom we dffer. Teach us to walk humbly and sncerely!. "Teach us to lve co"sstel~t lves! f we profess and call ourselves Chrsta1JS, may our lps and lves demonstrate the ;trfl.th of our professon! Make us good and k1jd and true! tlwe thank thee that thou dost not leave us to drft along the currents of lfe, but callest us to control our lves and to consecrate them to 1teW and hgh purposes! Help us to spen.d ourselves n the servce of others! n Chrsts name. Amen." The Blt;slSecl Te Everyone must be made That Bnds glad and gven new courage f OT our good cause whenever he reads such a sweet-sprted, nsprng report of church lfe as appears n the Home News today, from Welton, owa. Welton s one of our small country churches, wth only forty-two resdent members, and reports but sxteen famles. t was organzed n 1855, and durng the seventy years of church lfe t has gven the denomnaton no less than sx pastors, besdes one who became an Adventst mnster. f we count another who was born n Welton, whose grandfather was one of \\Teltons frst pastors, but who was converted n North Loup, Neb., that would make seven Welton boys now n the Seventh Day Baptst mnstry. A better record wll be hard to fnd. There are mportant lessons n ths whch our people wll do well to heed: (1) The people at large do not seem to realze the mportance of our small country churches as feeders for our denomnatonal lfe. Here are sx or se\fen mnsters now n actve servc~ as pastors or mssonares as the outcome of the Welton.Church lfe. The tome News from that church today reveals somethttg of the Chrstan brotherly sp r t by whch a church can produce such fruts. We shall never cease to thank God for the Van Horns, H~rleys~,Loofboros, and others, gven to our mnstry by the Welton Church. (2) am surprsed myself when. go over the lst of pastors, mssonares, ard secretares now n the work, to fnd, that nearly all of them came from the smaller country churches. The pastors of West-, erly, Ashaway, New York, Planfeld, New Market, Shloh, Marlboro, Alfred,. Second Alfred, Adanls Center, Brookfeld, Leonardsvlle, Mlton, Mlton Juncton, wthout mentonng several mssonares, all cam~ from small country churches, some of whch are now extnct. -., The secretares of our two boards, and the presdents of two of our colleges came out of three of our "backwoods" country churches. One lttle church n the Western Assocaton has gven no less than fve mnsters and as many mnsters" wves for the work.. (3) may not be able to ndcate from memory all the helpers gven the denomnaton by what we hav.e,always. regarded a~ small churches; but we can see enough f we look just a lttle to show the great m..;, {ortance of our country churches, and that to let them de would smply cut off our man source of supply for both out.. pulpts and our general work. ~ - ( 4) What rlo(!s all ths lead ~to? Smplf ths: the pastors of today _ should,notun~. derestmate the mportance of the work n ther small out-of-the-way, ~untry parshes.. Such pastors may nqw be dong a greater work for the successful future of our de~ nomna.ton than are those who" are n the larger churcl:es." Dear pastors, servng n what may seem to you to be unmportant felds, where lvng s hard and where the pr~sent outlook seems dscouragng, ypu can not see far ahea.d; but just one lttle look behnd to see what God has done through hs fathful ones n felds no more promsng than yours, ought to cheer your hearts and gve you new courage to do your v~ry best n the Chrst sprt~ sowng fathfully the. good seed and trustng God to brrg the,harvest.- More than, forty of our. mnsters and teachers of. today -have Come from church~ no more promsng artd n()more mportant,. ~;,.

Am Sorry For. n these tmes of PastorleasChurches scarcty of men avalable for pastors, whenever a dear old church has to lament the gong of a good p~stor, my heart s strred and can not help wshng were young agan and able to heed such calls and help such churches. The happest days of my mnstry were spent n what, we call country churches, or lttle churches wheren" my salary ran from fve, to seven hundred dollars a year. As look back upon those tmes, can see that the experences whch came to me then were among the best.educatve ones, preparatory to. future work; and that there, too, all unconscously / to me at the tme, thngs were ~ beng done whch were to result n wonde( _ ful help. for our denomnaton n the years to. come,. Among the most, frutful years of my o~-mnstry were those when a feeble ~hurch had to be helped $100 a year by the board tq splce out a salary of $500 n all; but could not then see what God was leadng xjje for, and all the harvest to come from ~hat seed~sowng.... The lttle church at Salem, W. \1 a., n 1890-nearly forty years ago-was as help- less and dscouraged as some of our c~urches are now, wthout a pastor and feelng tmable to support one. From my heart was sorry for them. The task dd seem hard; but where there are a few br!ve,. true-hearted, God-fearng men and women, ready and wllng to be led n the Masters work, no rpan can tell wqat God can do wth them. t was mpossble durng the frst two years n that dear church to.. foresee the outcome of the works just be gnnng then. 1 suppose that the experences of years gone by have, much to do now wth my sympathy. for churches n the country when, ahnos,t,dazed wth sorrow, they fnd them- selves pastorless. There s the dear old church, n Lttle Genesee-. where my boyhood days were spent-tt the days of Elder Baley and,of the early years of E~der Brown-.. now.f?cng ach~nge of pastors. -,;Read the story n poetry:()tl. another.page of. ths> RECORDER, a,nd.you,wll feel lke,.. c,,,.. ". ~ ".,... prayng that God wll lead the rght man to.. accept hs work n that feld. There, too, m:ay be a chance for some consecrated man to do a great work for the future of our dear people. B~ Not Deceved have often notced the dfference be~een the ways n whch good Chrstans express themselves n regard to ther relgous experences. Some seem to rse to the heghts of ecstatc emoton and have tmes of enthusastc devoton. Others never seem to be greatly moved by feelng, but always talk n very practcal ways, gong forward constantly n the work of the kngdom from prncple. People of very dfferent temperaments thus often come together n evangelcal work, and, fear, may sometmes msunderstand each other. Some persons can not take part n relgous or <levotonal meetngs untl they feel the thrll of emoton. They become ecstatc under strrng songs of redeemng love, and sng and speak as though unceasng ardor must characterze the true Chrstan. To sucb persons the one who shows lttle or no emoton, but serves n practcal ways from prncple, may be regarded as wantng n relgon-as a cold and ndfferent Chrstan. We must not deceve ourselves by thnkng that relgon. s a matter of emoton, pure and smple, for t s not. t s rather a matter of prncple. admt that t would be we! f the fervor of love always accompaned relgol.!s actvtes; but ths s not the man thng. The real thng s to keep steadly, unceasngly conscentously at the work whch belongs to the advancement of Gods cause on earth! There s a chance for frends on both sdes of ths queston to be deceved as to the real thng. f the emotonalst thnks the one who shows no feelng s not a. true Chrstan, he s mstaken. f.the one who sees others have the ecstacy whch he has 1)ot~ should fe~r that hs own relgon s not genune, and therefore, gve up, he too.wll Jlake a sad mstake. He would also deceve hmself f.he should thnk hs ~motonal brother has no real Chrstanty-or f h~ dscounts the genuneness ofhs brother ~ " relgon.. Tl1e one -who serves God from prncple.whle, as yet he has lttle. enthusasm may yet reac~ the place where he.wll.,enjoy real heart-fervor that flls hs own soul wth the sunshne fof heaven. The man who determnes from prncple to stand true to God, however he may feel, wll come to have the evdence of Gods approval. recently read of a conscentous young man,who was beng examned for church membershp. \\Then asked f he loved God. he hestated, sayng, "That s what s botherng me." He feared that he dd not love God, because he could not feel toward hm as he dd toward hs mother. Nevertheless, he sad that he was ready to do just what God wanted hm to do, whether he lked to do t or ~ot. The fact s, he thought God w~nted hm. to be a mnstez:-the very last thng he felt lke choosng for a lfework. Yet sad he: "Of course, f God wants me to be a mnster, wll be one; but t s hard for me to say love hm, f you mean that must feel toward hm as do toward my mother." That purpose to do Gods wll, whether he lked t or not, settled the queston wth hs church, as to hs ftness. Hs people thought that one so decded to serve God n any capacty from prncple, would, f he kept on n that way, soon come to have all the feelng he needed. know of no command, "Feal and he sa ved"; but there are plenty of teachngs, "Beleve and be saved." The actual dong of the thngs God requres s what convnces the world of the genuneness of our relgon. No More Football notce, by the J;Vesterl1 n Bethel College Recorder, that B e t h e College has decded to dscontnue the game of football, gvng fve strong reasons for the move. t s also stated that the step was concurred n by "trustees, faculty, and most of the students." Fve reasons are gve1\ by the presdent of the trustees: (1) The game s too rough and tends to produce heart troubles, whch c~t short lfe. (2) Too expensve n both tme and money. (3) The game s comng to be a "comnlercal club" game rather than a college sport. (4) t savors too much of the sprt of revenge and tends to "almost any knd of foul pract~e." (5) tunfts!or study for some tme after a game "and. mterferes Wth the best work for whch the college s ntended.

HOME NEWS FRENDSHP, N. Y., PASTORS MESSAGE. -The call to be your pastor for 1926 came as a surprse to me. The feelng of responsblty grows upon me as "go n and out" before you. Yet ths feelng s accompaned by a much greater growth of sympathetc encouragement on your part. r look forward wth you toward a good year for our chu,ch. Your pastor plans to present a message on the subject of "Relgous Educaton n \tnerca" Sabbath day, February 13. So let us have n mnd a few of the features of ths therpe. The three agences responsble for the educaton of chldren are the home, the Church, and the State. \Vhat about the present relgous nstructon for chldren n the home? For your boy? For your-grl? The stress on the part of secular educaton s along vocatonal and practcal lnes, and rghtly so. Although the publc schools deal to a certan extent wth orgns and ends, they do not gve them a relgous nterpretaton. n the frst place t s not the busness of the schools to do so, also the teachers do not have the tme. We are convnced that, by far, t.he majorty of publc school teachers beleve n a personal God. We can not beleve that Church and State are meant to develop wthout co-operaton. Every A.mercan chld has the rght to a knowledge of the Bble and to tranng ~ the Chrstan relgon. Ths rests upon the Church. Week day relgous educaton wll help the Church meet.ts oblgaton. May the Church put the chld at the center of ts educatonal program. Yours n the work of the kngdom, HURLEY S. WARREN, -1 n P ep-o-grant.

WEST To gve one an dea of the work and responsbltes that come ~frequently to mssonares, wll tell you some experences of one of our number n Shangha, the,ncdents of whch occur,red over a perod of more than three years. _ Peter Chang, a Korean, n order-to escape from that Coulltry, embraced Chnese ctzenshp, and came wth hs famly, Consstng of hs wfe and four chldren, to Shangha. Judgng from appearatlces, they were apparently n comfortaple., crcumstances whle -n Ko(ea... Mr., Chang Was well.. equcated.and ~ha~.~een. pa~~or ~t:a church. After comng to, Sh3:nghat he held THE SABBATH RECORDER 301 some poston under, the prov~()nal ~ gover~ n~r o~ Ko~ea, who wasthe~n hdng n. ths Cty. Later he taught n a Korean. school and preached for the Koreans. At ths tme the fnancal resources of these people were at a very low ebb. Many of them were dependent on money from the home staton. Sometmes t was forthcomng, and sometmes not. t had to come through "by so~e one comng down to Shangha, as they dd not trust the mals~ They were often wthout for months and \ had to depend on the charty of frends n Shangha. Durng the vacatons Mr. Chang sold embroderes and Korean and Chnese trnkets, thus helpng n a small way to eke out the scanty lvng. < The oldest son, about fourteen years of. age, was put n a boys school n Hangchow, whle the ~ext two, a grl of nne and a boy of seven, were asked. by the father. to be allowed to come nto our Grls School. At ths tme there was n the school a lttle Chnese boy, the son of our younger Bble woman, and Wnthrop Davs. These three boys, though not havng a common language soon,hecarre bosom frends. What one could not thnk of to do the - oth~rs could. The frst wnter these chldren were. n school they were very thnly clad,,and when we found the parents were not able to pro~ vde anythng dfferent, we gave Mrs. Chang old cjothes to make over f~r them, for whch both parents wer 1ost grateful. Sometme later Mr. Chang had the opportunty to go to Hawa as pastor of,a Korean Church. Before he went he. asked the prvlege of sendng money for the expenses of hs famly to Anna. Hs wfe could speak nether Chnese nor Englsh, and moreover was nothng o~ a.fnancer. l So would Anna please act as hs agent? She. could not refuse ths smple request, and for a tme all went well. Themoney came regularly and was promptly rurned over, to the wfe.... After a few months he wrote. askng Anna to send, hs famly to. hm, and enclosed passage money. He wrote that hs frend,.mr~ L..,: a Y.. lv.. C.. A. secretary, would. arrange. fo.r tckets and passports. Afterseveral unsuccessful attempts to get ~n touch wth. Mr. L.,she fnally found he was ~oon,to,go home on furlough and would be able too do.but very lttle for them..,

9 ,, "j,.. ;,.., :. " 302 S9 tll~ brunt of th:e burden fell upon Anna. /he,,-frst thng was to fnd out wh~n a steamer ~~ould be gong, n that drecton and then about passports. She found the pa~sports stpulated that Orentals must be free from both trachoma and hookworm before Uncle Sam would allow them wthn hs boundares. And then the trouble be- gan. The famly must all be examned for,these dseases., the boy n Hang-chow as welt as the others. They were examned, and, both trachoma and hookworm were found.,they were gven strct njuncton as to what to do to rd themselves of these nfect~ons, and soon John was sent for. ",Word came then from hs prncpal that he was n dsgrace and money must be forthcomng to settle several debts whch he had ncurred about town. The sum named was sent (by Anna of course). But t was found that was not enough, as more debts had come to lght n the meantme. Of, course all ths drew on the passage m<>ney. There was money due them from Korea; and the fa~ly were optmstc that t would come n tme. So preparatons went on and passage was engaged. But at the last mnute t was found that the passports requred that three consecutve negatve tests for hookworm must be passed and testjfed to by the physcan n charge. These could not be produced n that sllort tme, so the steamer went wthout the Changs..The,next tme passage w,as appled for there,was no room on the boat for them. Every berth was taken., ~ Then word came to the famly that a, relatve n Korea was very ll and not expected to lve. John 4 as a representatve of the -famly must go to hm. "How about yo~r fare to Korea and return?" Anna asked hm. "Oh, am sure f you wll gve. \ me enough to get me there my relatves wll re!:1nd, that and pay my way back," he reph~d. There seemed to be nothng to do but to let hm go, gvng hm strct njuncton to return as soop. as possble, to be n readness for the next boat, whch was dlle n a few weeks., Agan passage, was appled for. "There s no roo~ on ths boat," was agan the reply. Hut Anna was persstent; and fnally, a promse was "gven that the steamshp company would, f, possble" make room for th~.,s~ the, fa~1y were urged to be r,readness for the salng. The day before THE SABBATH RECORDER the boat was to leave, word came from the steamshp company that they mght go. Then there was a grand hustlng to see f all the requrements had been compled wth n regard to trachoma and hookworm, Anna never dreamng but that they were anx ous enough to go so they would take every possble precauton to make, themselves ready. There was delay. n locatng all the members of the famly, so there was but scant tme when they were fn all y rounded up. Then t was the same old story, they had not compled wth requrements and both Trachoma and hookworm were stll present. Ths steamer was the last one salng before new regulatons n regard to the admsson of Orentals nto the U nterl States came nto force. But there was nothng to do,but wat. Later nqury revealed the fact th&t Mr. Chang could not brng hs famly nto Ha :-va untl he had been a regstered pastor n that country for at least two years. Ths meant a wat of another year, and of course was a great blow to all concerned. Upon request from Mr. Chang, John was taken nto our "Boys School, and lfe went on as before. N ow the famly comes forward wth other uses for that precous passage money. Many thngs had been put n pawn to rase money whch t seell,1ed to them they must _ have. These must be redeemed - ther wnter clothng, old famly jewelry, the fathers watch, etc. Ther money n ths way was reduced by nearly ffty dollars. Soon requests began to come to Anna from Mr. Chang, as to thngs that should be purchased n Shangha to take wth them to Hawa. Of course there had to be many consultatons. These were requred mornng, noon, and nght, n season and out of season. The mother not speakng ether ~nglsh or Chnese, must needs brng the httle daughter to act as nterpreter. Often she knew not when her errand was done. One of the artcles necessary to be bought was a baby organ. Mrs. Chang should have t then, that she mght learn to play t before gong to the new home. Of course Anna must make the purchase. Other thngs equally necessary were sent for. " Then Mrs. Chang must have money for ths, and John more for that. And so the ~und gradually dwndled. They were lke chldren n ther use of money, and wthal very generous. For nstance, at commencement tme Mrs. Chang must have $5 to buy presents for the graduates, even though she knew none ~f them personally! At Chrstmas tme she must hav~ $10 for gfts. And all ths tme she could not make the monthly allowance last through the month for the barest necesstes. The presents thus bought were gven, many of them to members Of the msson. - t was about ths tme that the chldren seemed so undernourshed that l\fss Burdck nssted on ther eatng at least one meal a day n the school, wth the other pupls. Some tme last summer, Anna went to the steamshp c()mpany to see what steps would be requred to enable the famly to go to the father n Hawa. She was told t would only be necessary to secure papers from an accredted source n Hawa, cert fyng to hs havng been an authorzed mnster of the gospel n that country for at least two years. Ths knowledge obtaned, she began early last November to secure passports and other necessary papers and, also to begn work agan on the trachoma and hookworm proposton. A dary of her transactons wth the Chang famly from that tme forward would read someth1\g lke ths: November.-Fnd that a boat s leavng for Unted States, December 10. Wll, try to get the Changs off on that. Monday, November 2. - Took Peter Changs papers to Amercan consulate. One n charge was out, but attendant sad the man would wrte me. Thursday, November 12.-Phoned down to Amercan consulate to see why they do not let me know wh~ther the Changs can apply for passports. nformed they can apply, but told to brng only one or two of the famly at a tme., Frday, November Took Mrs. Chang and two chldren to the consulate, only to be told that the frst thng s to go to the Chnese Bureau of Foregn Affars (about four mles from the offce of consulate) and then fll out papers tellng name, heght, age, occupaton (now and prevously), resdence, etc. Found out that each, from mother down to fve year old lad, must pay a fee of $9 gold for ther papers, and that the process s a lengthy one.

Then, on arrval at some place where lfe was safe, there was frst the effort to place chldren n homes and famles as far as possble. t speaks volumes for the hosptalty of the N ear-eastern Chrstan races that, although these were chldren from a foregrt land and the neghborhoods of ther new ~ettlements were poor and the peoples of ther new countres were lttle famlar wth the thought of publc phlanthropy, over 18,000 chldren were placed n homes or smlarly cared for and taken from the orphanage lsts.

Our topc for today s a very mportant one and am not gong to make any suggestons as to the way each superntendent mght carry t out.

When we have thus begun to better understand that the dfferences between us and people.of. another race are, prmarly, not racal but moral, when we cease to overestmatethe whte: mans place n the world and so -enlarge our nterests that we can see n every man nf~t~ possbltes f~t d~,:,,~opment, then, ort of. a ~()re s~1?a~het1c understandng wll surely gto~ Vtthn,tt~ a new tolerance.vvemay, then begn"to apprecate n other races tho~e,.fne and noble characterstcs to whch we were blnd before. f we are sncere n belevng that God s not partal n hs love for hs chldren, then there must have been a yearnng of the Sprt amongst these peoples all through the ages. Ths convcton wll lead us to be alert to see what contrbutons they wll make to the kngdom of God. Possbly we may fnd n our own town representatves of each race whom we may study at close range. t s sgnfcant to note that some of these attanments,and racal g fts amongst the peoples of the earth supplement the more habtual emphases n western thought and practce. n the Chnese, for nstance, we fnd trats that are full of promse for the kngdom. Note ther rove of peace, ther democratc sprt, ther tenacty of pu1"pose, ther perseverance, ther patence, ther reverence for past values, whch has led to extreme conservatsm n the past, but nevertheless s a wholesome safeguard aganst ll-consdered nnovatons n the future. They have a genus for labor and thrft, whch s popularly emboded n the statement that f you gve a Chnese a foot of ground and a pnt of water he wll manage to get alon~.

We h~ve been ~ulty of desgnatng hm by. unknd ~d undgnfed names, never stoppng to thnk that the "foregner" of whom we thus speak has emotons and deals much the same as our own. nstead we are lkely to sneer at hm because hs speech and mannersm are dfferent fron ours.

" And now the Jews. n general we do not lke them. \\1 e resent ther ntrusons. They appear ostentatous, affected n dress and manner. \Vhy should a feelng of host 1 ty exst between them and us? Dare we suggest that we object to those characterstcs n another race because they are partly our own? Some one has sad, "Race hatred exsts only when there s a fear of the subordnate race." As long as these other races reman n ther own communtes and confne ther busness to ther fel, low countrymen, we thnk lttle about them; but f we suspect that our rghtful supremacy s beng threatened, we are up n arms at once. Thus, we have no opportunty to see the other sde of Jewsh nature-the quet, affectonate home fe, courtesy and hosptalty to anyone who happens to be n the household. Thrft s a domnant characterstc a.mong them, whch we Amercans mght well emulate. Surely ther racal contrbuton to the world should be apprecated and admred. And how about the N egrd? Has he any gfts for the world? A woman once sad, as she handed over a large sum of money to ad an ndustral school, "Yes, thnk must help the Negroes; they laugh so much.". To laugh-especally to laugh so much--s to do somethng whch needs dong everywhere. Dspostons that are sunny, optmstc, and that can see the joy n lfe; temperaments that are kndly and fnd none nsufferable; capacty for contentment n spte of untoward condtons-how can the world do wthout these? Many hold that the Negro s the only grateful race, as shown by the fdelty exhbted to Lvngstone. And who does not pay trbute to ther talent for musc? There s, fur~hermore, a sncerty and realty about ther relgous ex.perence. They undoubtedly need wse d recton as to the ends to whch relgon should mnster and as to the modes of expresson.

The water upon whch your chp was afloat at frst was only an eddy caused by a lttle curve n the bank. The man,:current moved n the other drecton. You have to look at the nul n stream,and not just at a lttle eddy at the edge, to see whch way the brook flows. 4 And that s the way t s wth mens lves. suppose there are tmes n each mans lfe when, f we looked only. at one. spot, t would look as f he were gong,n the wrong drecton. Lately a fcton wrter has seemed to fnd pleasure n tryng to fpd such a spot ~n the lfe of George Washngton. The man current of Washngtons lfe ran strong and full n the rght drecton.

But what do these lttle back-flowng, surface currents count n measurng the lfe of the great Washngton. t s when you look at t~e man current of hs deep, strong lfe that you can see how rch and full t flowed. He was one of the worlds great and good men. Someone has sad that Washngton was "a good cpherer and a bad speller." That s no sgn we wll be great just because we cant spell. There. are some mghty mean men n the world who cant spell. The only way to know the real Washngton s to learn ahout hs many noble deeds. Peter was one of the dscple& of Jesus and he too was a great and good man. But suppose we were to judge Peter by one sngle act of hs lfe. You_ remember how he went back on the Master once. Peter had felt very brave and had told Jesus he would stay rght wth hm to the end. To make good hs promse he. took a sword wth hm and when he thought the Roman solders were about to take Jesus; and when the tme came Peter/drew hs sword and started n to clean up on the whole crowd.

Then agan the Captan says, "Y ou must follow my way of lvng, for no one can serve two masters." We must have a regular plan of study, work, and play, each day, f we want to be good players n the game of Chrstan lfe. Let us stand up for Jesus, our Leader, and always play on hs sde. AN NSTRUMEN,T OF TEN STRNGS Polly, curled up n the wndow seat, was studyng her Bble verses for Monday mornng school. For ten whole mnutes she sat wth her fngers n her ears, eyes closed. and lps movng noselessly. Then she jumped up and lad,the Bble n her mothers lap. "See f know them now, mother," she sad, and proceeded to repeat slowly, but wthout mstake, the frst four verses of the nnety-second Psalm: "t s a good thng to gve thanks unto the Lord, And to sng prases unto thy name, 0 Most Hgh; :away." suppose you boys and gtrls play To show forth thy lovngkndness n the mornng, -t -too~ remember when the leaders were And thy fathfulness every nght, -takng turns choosng the ones they wshed Wth an nstrument of ten strngs, and wth the 10,play 9n the two sdes, how eager we Psaltery; were to know whch sde we should play Wth the harp wth a solemn sound." ~otl; and when our names were ccvled how "What do you suppose an nstrument 0 f quckly we would answer and step nto ten strngs was?"

To make musc on ths nstrument you must practce usng the ten strngs for some one else and tranng them for, useful and unselfsh work." Polly became unusually slent as she pctured to hersel f some of the scales she could learn. Of course, there were always the smple household tasks to be done for her mother, whch would seem less tedous f you thought of them as "fnger exercses." Then she could pant those paper dolls for the sck chld next door; that would be an "Easy Pece for a Begnner." Sewng and knttng wth her three lttle frends would become a sort of strnged quartet. "Dck would have to keep hs frets a lttle cleaner," she suddenly burst out, for teasng her brother was one of Pollys besettng sns. Wh~nDck, nvoluntarly hdng hs fnger-nals, faled to retort, hs mother spoke for hm: "Never mnd, f my boy keeps really clean, n the best sense, we wont scold about a lttle common or garden drt." Dck smled gratefully at hs mother, but he dd not go back to hs book at once. He sat sq~ntng at the lamp and thnkng. There were so many ways for a boy to practce on hs nstrument of ten strngs. Dck, who loved hs voln, could thnk of one way after another. Choppng wood, carryng coal, shovelng snow, and cuttng grass-those recognzed dutes, even though he was pad for them, seemed mote nterestng and worth whle n the lght of hs mothers magnaton. And then there were tunes to be played: Tomorrow he would carry the papers for Tom Darby, who had spraned hs ankle. P~rhaps he would have to postpone ndefntely that fght wth Jm Whte-t would. scarcely ft n wth hs mothers dea of harmony. That would be a hard bt of practcng, though.

The. body was dvded nto three groups, ~ch group appoltng a Fndngs Commttee whch reported frod,l tme to tme to the man body, whch b.ody had a sm~ar commttee functonng at the same tme, de _batng materal gleaned ffom reports Of. the, sectonal commttees.,from, the debate upon, ths: materal the ;con erell~e.h6ped to obtan, r a defnte report to present at the ~los~ of the meetngs whch would, n a measl.re, represent the feelng of the delegates UPOfl the subject and whch mght be passe:! on to the churches for ther consderaton. As one would expect n a group of ths knd, there was a dvson of opnon as to the rght course to pursue n tme of war; but the sprt n whch the conference worked together for three days,,- showed clearly that t beleved so thoroughly n peace that t could dscuss such a momentous queston wthout forgettng to practce the precepts for. whch t would have the churches stand., n. the openng address, the charman. Bshop Wllam F. McDowell, of Washngton; threw out a warnng note that there mght be occasons durng the conference whch would naturally lead to heated dscussons. Agan n the closng sesson he referred to hs prevous warnng, sayng he was pleased wth the way n whch the conference had been conducted and wth the absence of unpleasant moments whch mght have been caused by too "fery" speech. One phase of the subject, whch was gven a great deal, of tme for dscusson, was, what would be the atttude of Chrst upon the queston of war. Th~re were those who thought that the blessed Savor, whose whole lfe radated unselfshness and love for others, and who came to brng peace tnto the world, could not n any way look upon resstance as Chrstan, and would not sancton any methods of settlng dfferences except the way set forth n Matthew 5: 39, "To resst not hm that s evl," and agan n Matthew 5: 44, to "Love your enemes." Then, there were others who contended that Chrst taught by hs example of drvng the money changers from the temple, Matthew 21: 12, 13, and that he came not to send peace but a sword, Matthew 10: 34, that t,here were tmes when t ~as rght to use force.. A dstncton between the use of force n polce force, domestc or nternatonal on the one hand, and n war on the other, was clearly defned n the message to ~he chtrchesfrom the conference. Themotve and end of polce force s fourfold-t s nspred by good wll for the common welfar~; t s correctve and remedal ~ ts nature; t s exercsed by neutral partes; and t s strctly lmted by law and has justce for ts am. War, whether aggressve or defensve, s the use of organzed volence n a dspute between natons or hostle groups. Even though one of the partes may be gultless, t creates hatred, leads to unlmted loss of lfe and property, and always nvolves large numbers of nnocent vctms. \Vhle the prme object of the conference was to study n a tme of peace the queston ot war n ts dfferent phases, n order that some way mght be found to prevent natons from engagng n another war; yet, there were those who seemed to have a subconscous feelng that there would stll be wa.rs and talked on the queston of what should be done n the event of another war and what atttude should be taken by the churches. There were those who had changed ther. yewpont snce thelast war and apologzed for havng taken an actve part n helpng n any way to wn the war, whle others thought they had done the rght thng to partcpate and had no apologes to make. The rght of the conscentous observer and what should be the atttude of the churches toward ther members who took that stand, came n for a very lengthy dscusson. There were nstances durng the last war where men who refused to serve ther country because they dd not beleve n war were exposed to rdcule. n some cases cruel treatment had to be endured at the hands of those who were not n sympathy wth pacfsm. The atttude of the Frends who were exempt from servce n the World War because they had as a denomnaton declared themselves as opposed to war, was explaned. A representatve ot a U n\tersalst church went so far as to say that those who clamed exempton on the ground of beng a conscentous ob.server n tme of war should not expect protecton from the government n tme of peace. A Southern educator told of havng taught that some wars were rghteous; and that because of them we ourselves were enjoyng the prvleges that we now have. mght quote at length from the speeches of thbse who tred to llumne the subject by n j ectng reasons why we should or should not partcpate n another war;,but after all would t not be well to remember the old,, " ~. F.,. " adage, that "What we w.ould put tntoa,<tta-, ton, we mu~t frst teach th~ chldren"; and nstead of eljlboratng on certan wars of the past, whch mght have been rghteous hecause they took pl~ce n a perod when men were not so advanced n thought alo,ng other lnes, teach the chldren n the publc schools and n the Bble schools that war, s horrble and that a~guments among natons should be settled n some other way?

Another smlarty may be traced back through the words of the language. The name Esau has come down to the present ether as a whole or n part n many ndan words: for nstance, the asaw n Chckasaw; the syllable saw n Arkansaw; and also saw alone s three n the language of those ndans who nhabted the lower countes of ths state n the begnnng of the nneteenth century.

Can t be ~hat there s one who would want to be left out of such an enterprse? "What s!that n thy hat1d?" God wants to us~ you, and me wth all the powers and possbltes that. THE SABBATH RECORDER we have and all that we may develop. "Present your bodes a lvng sacrfce!" The call of God for ourresources s not smply to those who are to be mnsters, teachers, mssonares, but t s to all. lke the way Dr. S~muel McCrae Cavert puts t: "The nterest of the Church n the vocatons of young people s not merely to secure the men and women who as mnsters, mssonares, Chrstan assocaton secretares, or drectors of relgous educaton, wll carryon the work of relgous organzatons. There s, n prncple, no reason why the Church should not recrut for truly Chrstan lvng n b~~ness enterprs~s or n the practce of medcne as well as 1n the mnstry. The Chrstan socety whch we seek rests qute as much upon havng a noble leadershp n the professons and n commerce as n the pulpt..... To leave n the mnds of the majorty of youths the mpresson that because they do not feel called to the mnstry or msson they are enterng mere secular pursuts and are accordngly free to set for themselves other standards than those of servce, s to do an ncalculable sprtual damage to ther lves." There are men, and beleve n ncreasng nulllbers, who are enterng.nto?~sness, the professons, and even n poltcs, wth the deal of renderng the largest possble Chrstan servce.," Jesus drew no dstnctons whch would justfy most men n workng from motves of self-nteres,t alone, whle the few; devote themselves to human welfare. "-Caverf. "What s that n thy hand?" A queston for everyone who would serve Chrst s: \Vhere can make my lfe count for the most? And we are comng rght back to the slogan ot our copventon: "Make my lfe count for Chrst." _ Whatever ourvocaton may be, our controllng motve must be Chrstan servce. Some of us may serve as mnsters, and pastors, some as mssonares, some as teachers n schools and colleges, some as doctors and lawyers, s()me as engneers and n busness management, some ~sf~!f1ers and laborers n common tasks, some as wves and mothers n the secluson of homes. The knd of work does not matter so much as does the atttpde and sprt of the ndvdual. Let the motve be truly Chrstan, and lfe and, ts task wll be glorfed.., 319 And mqst of us wll prpb~~ly~ftd that our Chrs~an servce,ouf,c()ntrbuton toward correctng the evl wh,thbeset httnlrutty and usherng the kngdom of our God, wll be done n the common-place" routne and relatonshps of lfe..

And perhaps we would not Note- the style of Sster Jones gown, Or wonder f the deacon got Hs har cut out of town; But would lsten to the sermon And would not try to see f t fts our neghbor, But see f t fts me.
