It sug­ gests that so for as possible the a- mount of this special offering be set a t one dollar for each member. Of course, no pressure of any kind is being exerted.

Inspection invited. CLINTON ROUSE St. Route 64, N« W, of Urbana, O, (4m-ll-2) Dr. H. N* Williams DENTIST Yellow Springe, Ohio X-RAY EQUIPMENT “Hazards in the use of alcohol in • machine age”—this is the topic assigned for our lesson today. It is a good one and worthy of the care­ ful thought of every intelligent citi­ zen. With automobiles .alone kill­ ing over a hundred persons a day, and the obvjous connection between alcohol and death on the highway, we might say much about the folly of trying to cut down traffic acci­ dents while we are. licensing more and more “ taverns’1 along the rqad to fill the drivers with the destruc­ tive stuff. There is much that might he said about the social havoc that is being wrought by alcohol. It is bad enough that a man pays 25 cents for a drink, but even worse, that he gives 25 minutes of hiB life for each in­ dulgence. But the liquor industry covers that up under a mask of fes­ tivity, making booze look like a de­ sirable adjunct to congenial and suc­ cessful living. It does not picture the bleary eye and the babbling tongue of the drinker, nor does it present the broken-hearted moth­ er, the devastated home, the ragged children, and the empty cupboard. Liquor is one of America's major problems. Let us face it. ' The Scripture portions assigned for our lesson rightly emphasize fundamentals, the first being a call to awake from a false sense of se­ curity, the second emphasizing that this is a spiritual battle, and the third pointing the way of victory as being in holy living. l . Foolish Security When Sur­ rounded by Danger (Amos 6:1-6). Surprise attack is always effec­ tive. Satan would lull us all to sleep in the assurance that “God’s in his heaven -all’s ■well with the world.” God is in heaven and it is certain that ultimately Ho will reign over all, but just now the world is in the hands of the Wicked One (I. John 5:19). The people of Amos' day, to whom the message was addressed, had come to the point where prosperity had made them at ease when they, should have been active, foolishly secure when they should have been sacriflclally serving their fellow men who were in need, The pic­ ture is astonishingly up-to-date. To­ day in our own land the Gold Coast and the slums ruh elbows, but few of those who have plenty are con­ cerned about those who have not. In the eyes of most people the pur­ pose of gaining possessions is to re­ lieve one from the necessity of work and to enable one to evade life’s responsibilities. America needs to awaken to its dangers, and we repeat that not the least of these is the liquor question. We must either win a victory over it, or it will destroy our people. II. Spiritual Warfare—While at Peace with God (I. Pet. 2:11, 12). “Fleshly lusts, which war against the soul” (v. 11) are the object of serious concern on the part of every sincere Christian. There is a battle on, and the enemy of our soul knows how to make the abuse of the normal impulses and appetites of man his strong ally. The rush of modem life, the increasing use of stimulants, both naturSl and arti­ ficial, the very luxury in which many live, these things tend to give th e ' flesh and its desires undue promi­ nence, and not infrequently cause even God’s children to fall into sin. We are called to a holy warfare, but that does not mean that we live in a constant turmoil, We are, after oil, pilgrims and strangers in this world. Our citizenship is in heaven (Phil. 3:20) though we live on earth. In the heart we have peace, and that enables us to fight a good fight against the world, the flesh, and the devil. m . Doing Hie W1U of God in a Self-willed World (I. Pet. 4:1-5). Essentially there are two opposing principles' operative in the lives of men—we either are controlled by God’s will, or by self-will, The flesh- is really man’s personality con­ trolled by his own self-will, It re­ sults in the kind of life described in verses 2 and 3. When a man be­ comes a Christian he should move over into the will of God. Such a man may be regarded as strange, but as a matter of fact, men will recognize, his godliness (See I, Pet, 2:12). Df. Will H. Houghton tells of “a soldier who ultimately was made a Christian be­ liever through seeing his compan­ ions make fun of another soldier, who was a believer in Christ, The thing that impressed him was the fact that though they made fun of this man, they left their money in his possession for safekeeping!” Do we have that kind of a testimony? When He Doesn’t Worry His Satanic majesty never wor­ ries about the man Who has come to the conclusion that there is no devil.
