To His Church? Continued from last week) The new topic is the third, "Man's Duty to His Country." It is well known that no one can live long at a time in a house, unless he must first build the house and then keep it up, thereafter; in thinking of one's duty to his country, is compared as a man planting a vineyard and letting it out to husbandmen or overseers, then in order to make the vineyard function, there will be more to do than just plant it. It must be kept up and the overseer will not be able himself to look after the entire vineyard, for it would take more time than he could furnish; therefore he had to divide this vineyard up into different parts, and appoint other overseers over different parts and then there must be others also, come into the different parts of the vineyard; these we team, laborers; this must be done in order that the vineyard may function thereby. So it is with a man, especially a citizen of this country in which we live, in order to make this country what it ought be and to make it safe for democracy, and that it may be fit in which to live, we must be law-abid- --- --- LOVE for that offense, was put into execution. We should be more civilized in this day than they were in that day; and should therefore take heed to the things that make for peace, and as citizens of a country, take interest in the things of the country, to make it what it should be and a safe place in which to live. It can be done, if every human will make himself a committee of one and get himself right and in the right attitude and in so doing, it will be well with one who endeavors to do, that conditions may be made better for all and not a few. The law may be unjust, but if you stay out of the law, it will no doubt, in the future day, be in far better condition than here-to-fore. I do not believe a man can really be a law-abiding citizen without Christ—We are all human and subject to mistakes, in my belief, the man who has Christ with him, may make a blunder, but will not go very far before he will become conscious of the fact of his blunder and wrong and will check himself up; for Christ is the end of the law to them that believe. Those who believe will obey, that they may not be under the curse of the law. We who are Christ's should help enforce the law, as law-abiding citizens and thus do our duty to our country, not in the fear of man, but of God; in that we may finally, some day get rid of the accursed law, and that grace may abound. The law was not made for the children of God, but for the children of the devil. I am yet dealing with "Love," for without, we are in a terrible condition. As a duty to a country, one ought always be interested in the welfare of another and not to destroy that of another; only an enemy would do that. We should help to beautify the country in which we live, and protect one another as both duty to fellowman and country and prove a friend and not an enemy. If one is intrusted with another's goods as husbandman, or if one has gained confidence enough in another to create trust in the home, that one trusted should not be as a wolf in sheep's clothing to destroy the home. Never deceive a friend or brother. Don't let that confidence be lost. The world is built on love. Love unfeigned and wolves wearing sheep's clothing will shortly be made known.. Hutchinson Gleanings Mrs. Lee Walker and sons are visiting in Colorado for a few weeks. They inform us that they are enjoying themselves. The local masonic lodge will hold their grand Lodge here, Aug. 26th to 30th inclusive and much preparation has been made to care for the folks when they arrive. Dr. J. G. N. Soanes, Kansas City, Kansas, grandmaster, has been here and looked the field over and committees are carrying out their parts in first class. Chester I. Lewis, W. M., is working hard to see that every one has a bill of the affair in their hands, so they will know what is going on and where. Surrounding towns have been invited: Lyons, Great Bend, Salina, Wichita, Newton, Pratt, and many young people are driving in after working hours to enjoy the programs and whatever amusement that might be available for them. The Masons have a quartet that is second to none and will contest any quartet in the state. Miss Mad- Calvary Baptist Church REV. J. W. HAYES, PASTOR M.

Building; as it were one building, as Nehemiah building the walls of a great city, Jerusalem. Nehemiah was cup-bearer of the king and when he had heard of how Jurusalem was left desolate, and that the walls of the city was down, he felt it his duty to do something for God and while he was at his work upon the walls, he met with temptations as would one nowadays; but his answer was, "I am doing a great work and I cannot come down."

Winston instructed all the groups combined and gave some inspiring remarks on the lesson and of his trip to Colorado. Evening worship 8:00 p. m. opened with responsive Scripture reading, 24th Division of Psalms; pastor used for text St. Matt. 5:9; the words of the master, "Blessed are the pencemaker, for they shall be called the children of God." The pastor put a deal of stress on the subject. What makes one happy? Is it money? and how to be a peacemaker that the love of God may abound. There were two added to the church by Christian Experience. The Lord's Supper followed the evening service.

Justice de- manded payment, while goodness and merey pleed for days of grace, God is gaodsv This 1s evident in the manifestation of the Jaws of nature. To appreciate this manifestation, however, these laws must be atudied in the hght of revelation. The retreshing showers ‘that wa- ter the earth and the seperation that comes forth as food for man and beast are manifestations of iis goodness. ‘Lhe’ seasons, the nights and days which make possible continuous hfe upon the earth, are all evidences 0: the goodness of God, Sinful man, in his anxfety to re cetve the gifts from God, througt nature, is apt to forget that iti God’s goodness, which inspires the gift. ue THOUGHTS We do not want justice from God but mercy. Do we really want justice fron our fellowman? Is it God’s wrath or man’s disobe- dience that brings punishment? How much of your own suffering Js due to your own disobedience anc how much to the disobedience o: others? oe Can the laws of God be broken?
