| PAGE EIGHT ~ FIRST SERMON DELIVERED BY RADI TW WYOMING THE WONOROUS WORKS OF GOO, BY JM. CROME ‘Taking for his text, “And the heavens shall praise Thy Wonders 0 Lerd.” Psalm 8935, Dr. J. M. Cromer, Sunday evening delivered from the N. BR. Hood station the first sermon ever broadenst by radie in Wyoming. The message was particularity significant with respect to the discovery of the radic and follows in fall. There are two worlds, the visible continent? What more could we }ts abie and mighty ‘tual man helping to make it bold of the unseen hand of him who to save and or physical amf*the-tnvisible or «pir-] want?

God inten@e man to-mequtre the knowledge of beth worlds For the knowledge of the visihle or physical img intellect, an inquiring mind and an inquisitive disposition. For the knowledge of the invisible or spirit ual world God tas given man a spir. jtual and worshipping nature, and a burning and longing desire to know more of God, and spirit and heavenly things. The facts of the visible world lay open before the eyes of man almost challenging bis investigation, and re sponding to his study and research in a measure almost without bounds. From the very beginning man has been Mmspired to increase and inten sify his research by constant discov- cries. His rewards tn this study have been so great as to cause him to doabie his efforts until in our own glorious day, the wsole world stunds entist has driven him into the bowels of the earth, to bring up its secrets. and from em to sea, gathering the golden sheaves of knowledge climbed into the air with our ma-/ chines of transport riding threogh the air ‘on its own filmy cushion?

The reverent and devout spirit slways been turned to his God upon every discovered secret of nature.! And so great have been these discov. cries that the thoughtless student ot nature has himself been touched with| a sense of the presence of an Al-| mighty spirit in and through and/ above nature. It is a significant fact that man's first attention was drawn to the heav- ens. The astrologers were scientists. The truths of the visible earth about him, were naturally more familiar to him and more easily dis red. He thought that he knew much about nature, and:never dream- ed of the treasures just beyond his} common grasp. Plant life and antmal| life yielded up their simple secrets| every day, but in reward for his every | effort, and many times by accident, his fund of natureal knowledge ever | increased, until at Inst he came to and man penetrates universe getting nearer as and down world recog: thiags a We nend not go all the way to find God.

He reaches across the great chasm of} space nd binds together its outmost) bounds, and joins them to-the tion of more real things. It ts not our purpose, however, to try to catalogue the great discoveries} of nature and to follow out the slow plodding process which made them possibie. We do want to ascribe all honor to the students of science for their wonderful success; and we do want to acknowledge the wonder of the genius who led to the discovery of the marvelous radio system where- by the invisible ether is made to pass on from one infinitestimal particle to another the wave of ‘sounds with lightning rapidity as through one con- tinuous tube or wire. It is the wonder of this achieve- ment that drives us to the very sum- mit of effort to appreciate, that turns our hearts and minds toward God the creator and author of all. We have said, there were two worlds, that God was the author of | both, and that man was created to| learn the mysteries of both. And t we desire first of all in this tn- 8 in the use of this new rvice, system, is to make it a means of helping us to a fuller knowledge of that other 1 spiritual world with which this m has brought us in such close contact. I declare to you that I never have felt the thrill of the divine pres- ence in the achievement of any act of man or in the unfoldment of any natural mystery as in this. Christ said on one occasion to those who would know more of him, “Thou are not from the kingdom of And I confees to all who hear voice, I have never been led to such a conscious closeness to God or of God's nearness to us all, by any scientific discovery or human achieve ment, 80 far God.” my I have by this most myster. fous discovery of making the ether bear our me e in its own y Was it eno’ when the elec tric wire carried c the It’s Nerve Force From | Nuxated Iron that helps make STRONG, MAGNET- IC, FORCEFUL MEN, who make their over-mastering presence felt the moment they enter a room, | a | NUXATED IRON contains the principal chemical con-| stituent of active living nerve force in a form which most nearly resembles that in the brain and nerve cells of man, It also contains organic iron like the iron in your blood andwike the iron in spinach, lentils and apples.

Tins ether is the very spirtt of nature! But we must also say that as we go on in our study of nature we are re- warded more by getting an under- standing of those physical forces al- ‘ways belfeved so mysterious than by the practical use to which we put them. What I want to plead ts that ‘we ought to be getting more accus- tomed to those things called mys terious, and if the mystories of na- ture do not deter nor discourage the student of nature, ought we still re- main so discouraged and inactive in pur study of spiritual things be ase of their mystery? But here we must confess that God has purposely hidden the truths of the spiritual world, and made these mysteries @ reason fcr revealing him self. After all wint God wants us to know is Himrelf. And so great is the knowisdge ¢. a personal God that he must revesi himself. God couldn't wait for the slow process of man's study and investigation that he might at last come to how God, even if this were possible. God wants his creatures to know him now, here on earth, at once. His great heart of love yearns for the return love of his sinful creature.
