Mrs. War­ ren was before marriage to Mr. Aaron Warren, Miss Grace Morton, daughter o f Mrs. Anna Morton o f Xenia. Death was due to heart trouble. A t this writ­ ing no time has been set for the funeral. We received a communication yes­ terday from Mrs. I. Scandrett o f Rock bridge, HI., asking that we send a copy o f the Herald to her mother, Mrs. E. V. Heiner at Greenfield, 111. According to the letter Mrs. Heiner is in her eightieth year and was born in Cedarville and she longs fo r views and some information from her child­ hood home. We shall mail her some back numbers including the one with Rev. Foster’s historical sketch. Word has been received here that Rev. W. W. Iliff has been the means of stirring up Erie, Pa,, and causing a number o f raids on the bootlegging places in the city. Several Sabbath’s ago he preached a sermon from his pulpit that stirred the city. He spoke in plain terms about non-enforcement o f the law. As the mayor was mention ed we understand this official has at­ tempted to defend his actions by bring ing a suit against Rev. Iliff for $50,- 000. Another official has brought suit for $25,000, Meantime the state police have been sent to the city and the town is being raided from one end to the other. Safety, “ yes," said Mrs. Pluglelgh,.

THE SPIRIT OP PRAYER LESSON TEXT- Luke GOLDEN TEXT—The sarritlceB pf God aro a broken starlt; a broken and contrite her.rt, O f?ed, thou wilt not despise— Pa lm 51:p', REFERENCE MATERIAL—Matt. 5:5- 15; Luke 1B;20-2J; John >i. 1'AIMARY TOPIC—How TWO Men •Prayed, j u n io r TOPIC—How to pray INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Prayer that God. Answ era. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Secret to Prevailing Prayer, I. Men Ought Always to Pray (v .l). Prayer is absolutely necessary to the spiritual life. It Is to the spiritual life wlmt breathing is to the physical life. Men ought to pray under every variety of circumstance—-in times of .sorrow and burdens l’or strength to endure; lu times of joy and success for grace to behave aright; Prayer ought to bo persisted in even when the answer is not immediately seen. God does hear and answer prayer even when we do not understand the mysteries of delay. • II. The Urgent Prayer of a Widow (vv. 2-S). The picture here Is "of a helpless widow who was being cheated .out of her property rights, coming to a god­ less judge for redress. Hop only means of getting help was to prove the Justice of her claim by her persist­ ence. Even this did not gain access to his heart, for lie feared not Gtid.nor regarded men. He complied .with her, request in order to get rid of her. ' Tiie point here is not that God is like this unjust judge and etui be teased into compliance, but rather that If such action can be secured on the part of a godless judge by persistence, how much surer will be the help of God to those who cry unto Him day and night. . ' ' > The helpless widow pictures the church in this age suffering the de­ privation o f her rights, It is not the church praying for vengeance upon her enemies, but suing for the pos­ session of her rights by virtue of her covenant relation in Christ The in­ heritance of the church will be actual­ ized at the coming of Chrljst. This is why the truth concerning the com­ ing of Christ is so vital to. Christian­ ity, and why such disastrous conse­ quences follow the loss of the Blessed Hope. The apparent delay in the vindica­ tion of the church may dishearten som e.and cause others to mock (II Peter 3:4). Jesus’ question should be a solemn warning against allowing the apparent delay of the coming of the Lord to crowd out our praying. Though many may giye up we should be assured thai^. genuine faith will abide, and that the divine promise Con-' coming the coming o f Christ shall be fulfilled. We can be sure of God, III. The Prayer o f the Proud Pharisee (vv. 9-12). 1. He To6k a Striking Attitude (v. 11). The Jewish-custom was to stand while praying, -but the word “stood” implies the assumption of an ostentatious position'. '/ He was self- righteous and trusted in himself. 2. He Prayed With Himself (w , 11, 12); He used the name of God, but It was really a soliloquy/ He pretended to he ‘ thanking God when really he was rehearsing his own goodness— complimenting himself. His whole thought centered In himself. He con­ gratulated himself for (1) his morality (vv. l i ) . 1 He thanke<l God that he Was not as other men are, such as extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as the publlcnn who was stand­ ing afar off. (2) His Religious Merits (v. 12). He fasted twice a week and gave tithes of all he possessed He thus Informed God that he did more than was required, implying that God was under obligation to him. IV. The Prayer of the Humble Publican (v. 13). In striking contrast with this sup-, posed saint stood the publlcnn whose shame kept him from even looking up to Heaven, beating upon his breast ns a sign o f anguish of soul, crying out to God t i be merciful to him, a sinner. Ho took his place as a sinner and called upon God1for mercy. V. Christ's Testimony (v, 14), He declared that the publican went away Justified rather than the Phari­ see. The one great and urgent need on the part of men is a confession of sin and a willingness to cry unto God for mercy.
