The trouble is that the whole trend and influence of the liquor business is such as to tend to bring it into conflict with the real welfare of the public. Rev. L, jR. Kinnard told of hiB Poster Service. ’He said that each poster was calculated to put across me idea, so tha t “he who runs may ^ e t^ t as he goes”. ■ ■ There are 1700 schools in Ohio, and 2120 cities and villages and towns listed on the road map, These posters are changed every Monday and 6000 poster stations are heeds to cover Ohio. He presented each county presi­ dent with a set of posters. With the return of legal liquor ir city and countryside, American youth, is facing new tests. Dr. George B. Cutten, President, Colgate University, clearly points out that college train­ ing and alcohol do .not mix: “Everything I am trying to build u p ' as an. educationalist, alcoholic drinking tends to tear down. Alcohol unbalances the judgment and disor­ ganizes the emotions. The. natural results of a college education and of consuming beverage alcohol are rep­ resented by-?* divergently opposite poles,” . • If all the young people of state and nation will adopt. the standard , of Youth's Temperance Council, then we can predict the character-of the next generation.

Detro it St. Xenih, O i Teach us to pray! - The request of the apostles was not that He should tea$h them bow to pray, for He had already done that (see Matt. 6:5-7) in the Sermon on the Mount. What they needed, and What we need, Is not so much to learn how to bray, but actually to pray. Prayer is more talked about, than practiced. We discuss the doctrine of prayer, the time of prayer, the manner of prayer, pos­ ture in prayed; but how much do we really pray? This is a very important and plain ' question which we must face per­ sonally, .“Do I pray, or do I only talk about praying?!' Let us not fry to dodge it or excuse ourselves; let us face it honestly, do something about it, and know God’s richer and fuller blessing for our liyes. We have in. our lesson, I. A. Principle of Prayer (v. 9), - The one who has a right to call God his “Father” (v. 2) has a right to come and “ask" God for what­ ever he needs. God expects His children to ask, and many “have not, because ye ask not’’ (James 4:2) Give God a chance to an­ swer you by asking, but be sure to ask aright, not for your own selfish purposes (James 4:3). The real asker is also a seeker—he doesn’t ask and run away empty-handed— he persists. He not only “seeks,” but he “knocks” at God’s door. A knock is an evidence of faith—ex­ pectancy, and often persistency—all essential in real prayer. II. The Promise of Prayer (w . 9-13). . Here is the promise of our Lord. We are quick to claim the promises of our friends, business associates, the government; why are we so slow in claiming the promises of God? Can it be that we have less confi­ dence in Him than we have in our neighbor? Asking means receiving, seeking results-in .finding, knocking brings the open.door of His bless­ ing. Why hot do it? God is our Father. Even a man rightly bearing the beautiful title “farther” is loving and considerate. Will not the heavenly Father then give us every good thing?' In fact; the Holy Spirit Himself is ours in all His fullness, and-in Him there is every other gift, III. A Parable Concerning Pray­ er (vv. 5-8). . The point of this story is that we should be persistent in prayer. Im­ portunity carries with it a sense of being troublesome, bothering some­ one until the desired result is at­ tained. God encourages His chil­ dren to a holy boldness which docs not give up (see Luke 18:1-3; Matt. 15:21-28). If a man who is only a friend will at the impossible hour of midnight supply a need whlch should have been anticipated to feedonewho is a stranger to him, will not our Father, who "neither slumbers nor sleeps,” who knows and loves us ail, meet our deep spiritual need? Indeed He will, “exceeding abun­ dantly above all that we ask or think" (Eph. 3:20). IV. The Practice of.Prayer (w . 1-4). There is no one who can teach us to pray better than Jesus,’ for He “practiced what He preached,” He prayed. It was seeing Him pray that led the disciples to ask Him to teach them to pray. To profess is one thing, but it Is far better to practice. The teacher who does not practice prayer will accomplish lit­ tle in teaching this lesson, but the one who prays, though able to say but little, will cause many to say, “Teach me to pray,” For he practice of prayer, Jesus taught His disciples a model pray­ er. This does not mean that this is the only prayer to be offered, nor that it is the ojnly form of prayer. As suggested, i i is rather a model. This prayer opens with a recog­ nition of God as 'Father, followed by a reverent petition that His name may be hallowed; that is, that He may have glory as His will is done and His kingdom established in the hearts of men. Those who have.that spiritual, life and attitude are ready to ask for the supply of daily needs, and above all forgiveness of sin and deliverance from temptation. Note that verse 4 is not the prayer of the unsaved for forgiveness and regen­ eration, for that is all of grace (Eph. 2:8). ‘The man outside (of the king­ dom) gets his forgiveness with no condition; bu’t\once he is in the king, dom of the Son of God’s love, he lives within the laws of that king­ dom. . Then he does not get forgive^ ness unless he is ready' tovforgivei uniesfc he has .forgiven” (Morgan), “Nothing more surely destroys com­ munion than the unforgiving spirit (Matt. 6:14, 15; Mark 11:25). The fact that we forgive others -is no t. .the ground on which God forgives us, but it is the condition of our en­ joying God's forgiveness (Eph. 1:7; 4:32)” (Bradbury).

NELSON, O. D.f S OPTOMETRIST i v i Jamestown, Ohio ' “ I did not cry until this,afternoon. My leg hurt me so much. I .could hard­ ly stand it. Now, I f eel better”. Robert Montag had been in the hos­ pital, forty-four hours -when he utter­ ed those words. His right leg was broken between the knee and hip, I t wat a new and tragic experience for a twelve-year-old. ‘^Robert, I think you are made of soldier stuff”, said the rural mail car­ rier who is a neighbor and being fond of the boy, called on him. “From what your uncle told me about your acciden I think you were very brave”. Mr, Grandison is very proud of his promising nephew, Robert's home is in Pittsburgh, but most of his time is spent irt the country home' of these relatives. Mr,„ and Mrs. Grandison haye no children. “Your uncle said he did not know what became of the coon”, said the letter man jokingly, “When he re­ ported .you were doing nicely, I asked him abdut the fellow”. “May be he is still up that tree”, responded'Rqjiert dryly. Mr. Grandison and Robert were out hunting. Their dog treed a coon. Rob­ ert offered to climb the small maple, and dislodge the creature. He almost succeeded, when the accident happen­ ed. The lad broke his fall by grasping other limbs, and bis uncle Dave’s long arms were around him as he touched the ground. ' . They were, in a dense thicket about two miles from a habitable house. It was cold. The high wind was raw. It was ten o'clock at night. Help had to be secured to convoy the boy’s 135 pounds to the car at the roadside. The brave youth lay flat on the ground wrapped in his uncle’s hunting jacket. There was no complaint, but rather wishful anxious waiting. After all;, it was a sportsman’s bad luck. . The rescue party had difficulty in locating him. The stormy wind rust­ ling through the trees competed with the calls of the men. Lanterns went out. The one flashlight was very dim. Then, when they heard Robert’s call, one of the men excitedly steppefTon Robert’s wounded leg. - “What did you think about, Robert, while you lay there ?” cautiously in­ quired the mail ,man who is deeply religious. “Oh, I thought, my Uncle Dave would get me out of there. Held have to do my chores. I hoped they would riot take my leg off. Guess that’s about 'all”, responded the young man, “Did you think about God, Robert?”' kindly questioned the interested postal I t is a picture of a° courageous American youth.
