TODAY’S TEXT: “Forsake the foolish and live."~—Proverbs iz.6 By John Roach Straton, D. D. New, York, P ST AR SR e Y The foolish are the fool-ish. They are described in many connections in Holy Writ. “The fool hath said in his heart there is no God.” (Psalms xiv.1). Therefore, we should forsake the unbelieving fool. Again, “The way of the fool is right in his own eyes” . (Proverbs Xii.15). Therefore, we should forsake the self-righteous fool. Agaln “The fool despiseth his father's instruc- tion.” Let us for- sake the vain and disobedient fool. *Again, “As a dog returneth to his vomit, so the f'o‘?l returneth to s DB. STRATON. fertiOS ey xxvi11). Let us then forsake the com- fianionahlp of the immoral fool and ve. Indeed, we cannot do better in this short sermon than to let this divine- ly inspired wise man who wrote the Proverbs speak to us and draw his own contrast between the folly that kills and the wisdom that brings life. Hear him say: Doth not wisdom ci And under- She standeth in the top of high plxlces, by the way in the places of the paths. She crieth at the gates at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors: Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice s to the sons of man. O ye simple, understand wisdom; and ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart. Receive my instructions, and not silver: and knowledge rather than choice gold. For wisdom is better than rubles; and all the things that may be desired are not to be com- pared to it. By me kings reign and princes decree justice. My fruit is better than gold, vea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silve: The Lord possessed me in the begin- ning of his way before his works of old. 1 was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, 1 was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth: while as yet He had not made the earth, nor the flelds nor the highest part of the dust of the world. When He prepared the heavens, 1 was there: when He set a compass upon the face of the depth: when He estab- lished the clouds above: when He strengthened the fountains of the deep: when He gave to the sea His decree, that the waters should not pass the commandments: when He ap- pointed the foundations of the earth: then I was by Him, as one brought up with Him: and I was daily His de- light, rejoicing always before Him rejoicing in the habitable part of His earth; and my_delights were with the sons of men. Now, therefore, hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways. Hear in- struction, and be wise, and refuse it not. Blessed is the man that heareth me, watching daily at my gates, wait- ing at the post of my doors. For who so findeth me findeth life. and $hall obtain favour of the Lord. But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul; all they that hate me love death. (Proverbs viil.1-5; x.11; xv.19; xx1i.36.) Surely the choice between faith and unbelief, wisdom and folly, righteous- ness and sin is the greatest choice of life! (Conyright. 1926.) Message From Mrs. Bill.

Preacher. 08to This is a perfectly simple proposi- tion. There can be no debate about it. The writer of this proverb gives ad- vice. Let him who would live hunt out sensible peo- ple with ‘whom to ' live. You will be made by the com- pany you keep. Every one who is over 40 will im- mediately endeav- or to apply the proverb to those who are under 30. It is the open sea- son for age to prey upon youth. For things, you know, are not as they were when we were young. For that matter, of course, things never were. 1 imagine that the writer of the book of Proverbs, were he living to- day, would be among those who feel very badly about “this younger gen- eration.” It has been chronic, that viewing-with-alarm business, since the days of Adam, and before. It is com- forting to older people to have some one to look down upon. It stiffens one's self-respect and gives one a sense of great goodness, “This younger generation” is doing a great deal to shock the people who have settled down by their firesides it seems that they enjoy amusemen and go to the theater and ce. | Some of these theaters are bad, and some of the dances are worse.' So it is argued. Therefore youth must be going to the devil. Yes and no. Things are probably just about as they alwdys have been. There are bad people and good ones, and a good many of the bad ones think themselves good. It is a mix- up world, and only God can be quite certain as to which are bad and which are good. I doubt whether even God knows. “This younger generation” is hard to understand. It is noisy, flamboy- ant, restless. It fails to respect peo- ple and institutions simply because it is ordered to. It carries hip flask and bobs its hair, and smokes cigar- ettes, and laughs at the wrong places. It drives automobiles too fast, sits up too late at night, goes to entirely too many show: It experiments with tried and tested conventions and gen- erally disturbs the peace. So it is charged. Some of the charges are serious and some exag- gerated. Critics always exaggerate other people’s sins. “But “this younger generation” f{s honest. Sometimes it leans over back- ward in order to stand up straight in this matter of honesty. It is 2 part of the recreation from the silence of the Victorians, a silence which was half reticence and half sham. The proverb is perfectly sound. One lives by escdping folly. The business of discriminating between foily and sense is the business of a lifetime. It cannot be learned in a month or a year. It is costly business. The tul- tion of life comes high. Age cannot coerce. Youth will find its way as it always has, by the hazardous process of “trial and error. There are no short cuts. Age can_in the meantime cultivate patience, a saving sense of humor, and refresh its memory. By doing so it may possibly resurrect its waning tol- erance and indulge in a little saving charity. DR. HERR! EPISCOPAL. {BIBLE SCHOOLS ENDING SUCCESSFUL COURSES Most of Vacation Studies to Be Finished July 30—More Than 17,000 Attending. Preliminary reports from the 22 Daily Vacation Bible Schools conduct- ed in the churches of Washington and vicinity show a total registration of more than 17,000 children, with five denominations represented, according | to the vacation school department of the Washington Federation of Churches.
