a — THE HOPE OF JESUS CHRIST Rev. Dr. Briggs Delivers Last of Series of Six Interesting Sermons. Rev. Dr. Briggs concluded his ser- ies of six sermons on social Chris- tianity and social problems Sunday, using for his subject “The Hopeful- ness of Jesus Christ.’ His text was taken from acts 10-18: I beheld Satan falling as lightening from Heaven. The purpose of the sermon was to show that the words dispair and fail- ure were not known in the vocabu- lary; of Jesus Christ, and that he al- ways brought the softer tints of life to the attention of his followers. The reverend doctor said: “Christ had sent out seventy of His disciples, two and two before His face, to go imto every city, and when they entered a house they were to say: ‘Peace be unto this house,’ and they were also instructed to heal the sick, bringing to our notice the fact that his teachings all tended im the direction of securing peaceful and happy homes for everybody. The sooner we can induce our rulers to bend their energies for peaceful and happy homes, the sooner will we have greater national stability and nat- ional progress. When these men returned to Christ from that mission, they reported that even the devils had been sub- ject to them in the mighty name of Christ. Christ, in commendation, used my text: ‘I beheld Satan fall as lightning from Heaven.” The victories they obtained were the sur- er pledge that the day would come when evil would be altogether con- quered When Jesus spoke of Satan, he described him s ficantly enough as the prince! of this world. There are some men who boast they are men of the world. If they are men of the world, and if the devil is the prince of this world, as Christ says then he nec rily follows tha he is, ) of the world are subjects of the devil, inera are some persons who laugh to scorn ‘the idea of the ex- isiance of a persoual spirit of evil. F. D. Maurice in speaking of perscnal devil ut it is the onty rational view. As for an abstract principle of evil—who cares for an Z act principle of evil? That will ne hurt you or me. All the evil which I have ta do with is found in human beings, and unless you are prepared to deny all personal exis- tence except that of human beings there is no reason why we should not accept the statement of Christ as to the existence, of the chief spirit of evil. “Wiho ts tan? Milton says he is the eternal egotist, the incarnation of selfishness, the worshiper of power and force. He (Satan) believes the chief thing everywhere is to look after number one, and he also believe the battle is to the strong. Now Jesus «a Christ believes the exact opposite. fie believes the best thing is to se- cure, not your own, but your neigh- ors welfare. He believes also that the meek shall inherit the earth, He never agrees to any compromise with the devil but always assumes an attitude of absolute irreconcilable op- Its not the opposi- position to him. AO A RET NEON ¢ REO ART TLNESS |AD RTISE STATE’S OPPORTUNITIES ment to Give Clearer View of State’s Resources. , Urging the necessity of more ef- fective state advertising, the Consoli- dated-Publicity bureau of St. Paul has sent a memorial to Governor Eberhart which has received the chief executive's endorsement. In its me- morial the bureau says: “The necessity of more effective state advertising work has for a long time been apparent. The larger cities are able to do and are doing such ad- yertising as fit their particular require ments. Nothing is being done for the settlement of our farm lands, our va- cant agriculture lands, our cut-over dands and our state lands, except through the activity of private in- viduals and firms. “Settlement is now pouring into Montana at a remarkable rate, but only very slightly more than the usual moderate quota are coming to Minnesota. If the state engages in active, efficient, well thought-out and economical advertising along right lines a movement can be started to Minnesota. How except by such me- thods are the rural districts to in- crease in population, giving market towns increased business and gener- ally heightening the prosperity of the state? What the big cities are doing, the smaller cities lack money and expert men to do im most cases. “Agriculture i& our business in Minnesota. State-wide and general- ly increased prosperity can come only from heightened agricultural pro duction and settlement of agricul- tural districts At the same time industri expansion, that we may malxe the thousand articles we are now buving in the east, is extreme- ly desirable. “The larger cities should assist this movement, because they can grow only as the state grows and their reward for any effort sincerely made in behalf of Minnesota will in a matural increase of busi- ness as we have a better settled state They have the resources and should help even if they expected no returns Fill Engagement at Duluth. Earl Morse, pianist and vocalist at the Gem theatre, departed for Du- juth where he will finish a two week engagement at the Bijou. At the completion of this engagement he will return to Grand Rapids to per- manently fill the position of pianist and vocalist. Miss Blanche Dewey will assist at the piano during his absence. Mr. Morse its one of the best motion picture piano players in the northwest and has a well trained baritone voice. In securing his ser- vice the management of the Gem give evidenca of the fact that they are attempting to give a show that is just a little bit better than those of the surrounding villages and cities and the attendance bears witness to the fact they are making good. A special program is being prepared fof| Decoration day, so we are in- formed, and subjects to fit the oc- casion will be obtained as near as possible. Many have asked what tion of dispair, but of bright and confident hope. Christ was the most extreme optimist ‘the world has ever If He could inspire you and seen. me with His optimism, it would be an unspeakable blessing for the world. He has already won such glorious victories during the last two thousand years that we are tired of hearing about the existence of Christ- ianity. Christianity is its own evi- ‘dence.” The reverend doctor went on and spoke of the early boyhood days of Christ, the difficulties under which he labored to present at that time the’ new religion, to the world, of his never swerving from the right, no matter how weak the material with which he had to work and then drew a parallel of the lives of Jesus Christ and Napoleon Bonaparte, how the latter, backed by the powerful armies of France, had declared nothing was impossible, but was finally compelled to face defeat, while Jesus Christ came out triumphant from every con- test with the devil, and Satan, at that time, was so powerful that in every country the workingman was a slave. “Christ forsaw a day of triumph- ant justice and universal brother- hood, He saw the power of evil brok en and shattered. Nothing paralizes our energies more than asecret dread or a half conscious fear, that after all we may be beaten; that darkness may triumph over light, and that sin and misery may deluge the world. (Me moral I desire to point out is that we must never compound with the devil if we expect to win. We must never compromise with hell, we must never admit that any evil is necessary. In conclusion Dr. Briggs said: In the days of divine sympathy, the devil shall fall, and his fall shall be as sudden as it shall be great, and srrdparaplé. the censor board of the Motion Pict- ure Patents company consists and we give the following from the Green Book magazine concerning the sub- ject. “They comprise the city Vig- jance league, the Ethical society league, the federation of churches, the league of political education, the Neighborhood Workers’ association the Peoples’ institute, the Public Edu- cattional association, the society for the prevention of crime. the Woman's Political league and the association of moving picture exhibitors of New ‘York. The films are shown on a screen and if a single vote is record- ed against any particular one, it is destroyed.” This imsures the pub- lic a high class order of pictures. Can Market All Potatoes. Supt. A. J. McGuire, of the North- east Experiment farm, has received advice from the Duluth Co-operative Farmers’ market association of which the Itasca county association ts a ranch, to the effect they will be able to sell ali potatoes the farmers have on hand at market prices. As the potatoes held in this vicinity are Kept in cool cellars, ‘they are in an excellent, state of preservation. Hit the Cop. ,Officer McCormick was at the de- dop Tuesday afternoon to take a man whom the conductor on the passenger had telegraphed ahead was crazy. As the unfortunate stepped from the train he took a “swipe” at McCor- mick, giving him/ a nasty blow on the face. As the latter was unprepared, this took him somewhat by surprise, but he soon calmed the fellow down with the aid of his club and placed him in the county jail. It is presum- ed he will be ‘consigned to Fergus Falls. “GRAND RAPIDS HERALD-REVIEW ECE RE SSS SSO CS SSeS Se tie eS Sere Tenner Tr re Tels Se eee eee eee e ee eee es om, THAT FITS.” o We invite’ your inspetion of our spring line of Lion brand shirts and collars innew coat ey Seegoreng oy Into it, out + % effect. of it like a coat.
