s
thing out of nothing you are off
yur base. God himself has quit
that business six thousand years
ug. If you want to be a man a
good God has fixec it so tjufr you
can be one. But if you want to 6e
little fool then the devil i.s fixing
things in this world so that you
will feel natural in the other country:
You talk about me talking vul-
gar but you give me a decent
crowd and I'll not talk that way.
Ain't my talking as good as this
rovd. I know there are just as
line ladies here as any place in this
world and as noble men but there
are some that are as mean as any-
where. But this is the way with
it . If )ou see me coming toward
you with a grubbing hoe you need
n it- be uneasy unless you are a
grub.. When you promise any-
thing carry out your promise. Be
like the negro was who promised
to Fee a man at a certain time. The
time arrived but the negro wasn't
there. The man went to see his
wif and wanted to know what was
the matter. She said 'Boss you'll
have to skuse Mose 'cause he's
dead.' That's the only good ex-
cuse fQr not keeping a promise.
Brother you can't beat doing
right. It is the best thing a man
ever did. A man of honest you
can't find any other kind of a man.
If he is not honest he is not a man.
Thus the talk continued showing
that men were needed. At the con-
clusion a most beautiful comparison
was made between the old pond
which kept all it got and the beau-
tiful little stream which gave its
little might to the river and had it
returned fourfold while the old
pond dried up and was not able to
supply its own wants.
EVENING SERVICE.
At the 3 o'clock service Brother
Stuait preached on what he called
the most important sermon of the
week aud one which contained the
key to the situation. He. took his
txt from the 18th chapter of Gen-
esis which is the words of God
concerning Christians. "For I
know that he will command his
children and his household after
liini that they will keep his com-
manuments etc. The .Lord in
tended to found a nation on earth
t
thnt he might call his people and
while the world revolved m its
daily course he saw Abraham and
said lie's the man.)1 Why? Be

good foundation cm which to build
and Abraham wds the best material.
ll e point of adr civilization is the
home. Say what you please but
every bad liian in the United States
came from scone misguided home.
I don't soy that y&u haven't a good
fer or a good mother but
mother may be good aud not know
how to mmage a home. A father
may be good" and not know how to
control his boys. David was a good
man but he didn't train or treat
Absolont right. Eli was a good man
but be didn't treat his children
right. So father or mother can
5-ave their homes without they hold
familv oravers in the h'ome. If

the magnificence of a home that

The home question is everything
in the happiness of a country.
Henry Grady the eloquent Geor-
gia orator told in burning words of
his first impression of Washington.
As he looked at those maye
buildings those government build-
ings apober public pr.oportyin
that ciiq? trje thought came to hind
wa8' centre of the
tftujed' States. fijere was the life
aud padrone of the country. But
time passed and he parsed the
night with an old farmer. After
supper thejfarmer culled his family
took down-his bible read a chap-
ter and had family prayers. Gra-
dy said when he went to his room
that night he thought he was mis-
taken about Washington being the
foundation of the country but the
real country was formed from
homes like this old farmer's. This
country is the men and women of
the country.
There is something sweet about
a little child something sweet
about a home. I believe the big-
gest part of heaven is made up of
little children. I said this was the
most important service of the meet-
ing and it is. If I cant reach your
heart through the children I can
only say may God help you.
Trajn your children right. Mrs.
Wesley had nineteen children and
it is a historic fact that not one of
them ever cried after they were two
years of age. Why? She says
because she didn't give them any
thing for crying. You take a child
that obeys his mother and he will
obey the laws of God.
A woman came to me once and
said she was uneasy about her
child as she couldn't keep her
from attending Germans. I asked
how old she was. ShVsaid "fif-
teen." I told her she ought to
take her to the attic lock the door
and wear her out. "My! My! I'll
tell you how I stand on that ques-
tion. My girl shall neyer go to a
dance and if she can't be persuad-
ed any other way J car interview
her in the attic. I believe in the
old scripture saying: 'Train up a
child in the way it should go and
when it is old it will not depart
from it.' It won't waiitto. I am
going townee the devil oulENof my
home and I "won't let a.ny biMhe
instruments of the devil inside that
fence. If a dude or dudine comes
fooling around my girl Fll tell
them to tend to their own little
business.' I don't know how to
tell you to rajse children I wish I
did. I haven't" hud any "'experi-
ence. - .
Then followed an interesting!
chaptej from his own life showing
that by giving up a trip to the
holy land and obeying his. mother
his own life had been spared to be
used in God's service.
NIGHT SERMON.
Bro. Jones preached from the 24
and 20 verbes of the first chapter of
Proverbs. "Because I have called"
and you have refused" etc.
If you only knew it God is only
calling you to be better and nobler.
As you go the breakfast table and
see tho faces of your little ones you
are reminded that you ought to do
better. As you go to your work
the sun in the east looks down upon
you and say 4I am rising over the
hill of life growing brighter and
brighter. How is it with you?' At
midday the sun says 'I have how
reached the meridian of my jour
ney and will soon pa8 out of sight
on. the other side.' How is? it with
vou at midday? Have you reached
the meridian of life and are you
soon to begiii tho descent and are
you ready? As it sinks into th
pillow of clouds at sunset it says
'1 am ready to pass away.' ion
too are nearing the tomb and will
soon stand on the other side. '
He then said that everytlung.
