COMMl'NITY CHRISTIAN CHCRCHj
“Mooting the Challenge’* was the
subject of the sermon last night, the
text being the words of Paul: "Where
fore, I was not disobedient unto the
heavenly vision.” The operation of the
military draft law has tested the pa
triotism of many citizens. It has call
ed for a concrete response which de
termined whether a man is at heart j
loyal, willing and ready to respond |
with sacrifice for a great cause ori
whether he is as heart a slacker. The
kingdom of God has also its loyal citi
zens and its slackers. 1 he rich young
rul^r, Judas, Delmas, morally up
right as they appeared, showed them
selves at heart slackers, when the real
challenge came. Paul responding to
the heavenly vision, Moses to the the
burning bush, each forsaking ease,
popularity and temporary prestige to
identify himself with a lowly and des
pised people for their redemption, met
life’s supreme challenge as only great
souls can. They fellowshipped with
Chhrist in bearing a full heart bur
den of human failure and spiritual
poverty. Every unwholesome moral
condition; every weak and failing fel
lowman, every willful sinner presents
a standing challenge to the citizen of
the kingdom of God. Jesus calls us
to burden our hearts with the spirit
ual needs of our friends, of our
brotherhood. Do we respond with sac
rificial effort or are we slackers? “As
the Father sends me, so I send voir.”
METHODIST CHURCH
Rev. Patton spoke Sunday morning
from the theme, “Christ’s Medicine
for An\iety.”
The pastor said that all who begin
to study the Scriptures are soon im
pressed with the fact that God Is in
terested in the welfare of his children.
The sacred pages are replete with
promises of guidance and support.
This at once reveals to us that our
Saviour has great pity for those who
undertake to bear their burdens and
cares alone. How many there are who
carry not only today’s, but also the
prospect cares of tomorrow. Jesus

CAPITALISTS
ON THE WAY
Party From Los Angeles Leaves
Seattle On Alameda for
Seward
John E. Ballaine and a party of men
from Los Angeles, who are interested
in a building company for Seward,
sailed north on the S. S. Alameda
Sunday. Although the members of the
| party have not been announced, it is

says in Matthew 6134: “Be not there
fore anxious for the morrow: for the
morrow will be anxious for itself. Suf
ficient unto the day is the evil there
of.” In the thirty-seventh Psalm we
read, “Fret not thyself, it tendeth
only to evil-doing.” In Romans 8:28
we iead, “And we know that to them
that love God all things work togeth
er for good, even to them that are
called according to his purpose.” To
day’s text: Philippians 4:6,7, is not
only an exhortation to trust God, but
also a promise. Let us write it in
our hearts. “In nothing be anxious
* * * And the peace of God, which
passeth all understanding, shall guard
your hearts and your thoughts m
Christ Jesus.”
