The tendency of men has;| ever heen to hayve a narrow view ¢ God, to limit Him in His operations and fail to catch the vision of His uni- versal kingdom. “Let us banish forever from ourj iminds the false and foalish notjon | that Gad can do wondrous things in | mission fields, in large cities. and m big churches, but that He can not da j equally wonderful things in our midst. Our Lord is here, the power house is right among us, only necessary things —trust and obey. III. Again, wWe note that the fores of nature act beneficently. Men, with their lack of insight, have repeatedly dwelt upon the fact that Nature is unkind, but the reverse is the case. When a stubborn, rebellious, wicked hearted king, Ahab, ruled Israel, God | laid his divine hand upon rain, and | for a season did not permit it to fall and the land was changed into des- crt. Doubtless before this the people had complained - frequently of too much rain. But now when no rain fell, and eyves were dimmed with tears, all hearts were heavy, and the future seemed hopeless, because not a drop of rain fell. But when in answer to Elifah’s pravers, the heavens grew black with clouds and the rain fell in refreshing showers, what a heavy burden was lifted from the nation, How joyous were all hearts. It mat- ters not whether we think of the air wo breathe or the heat that comes to us from the sun, or the food stored up in the soil for the nourishment of plants and trees and shrubs.. Across all we see clearly written the un- changing message of Ged's goodness, And if the hand of God at work through thel forces of Natire is seen | to be good, how much more is his goodness manifest in the outworking of all those spiritual agencies which He sets in operation for man’s eter- nal salvation, As Christ Jesus, the One in whom all spiritual forces are centered, steps into the midst of humanity—what do we hear him declare? He says: “Y am come to scek and save that which was Jost.” He sa; “I am come that they might have life and might have it more abundant He declares: T am the good shepherd, the good shep- perd giveth his life for the sheep.” His assurance is “All things werk to- %'hm‘ for good to them that love God.” “I go to prepare a place for you, that where I am there ye may be also.” At any cost, even by the agony of Calvary's Cross, He comés to re- deem and s Overwhelmed by a sense of His perfect love and good- ness untold millions have been loyal to Him and said with Paul “Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?’ Eter- nity will be too short to repay Him for our savation from sin and death. Take my life and let it ‘be Consecrated Lord, to Thee hecomes not merely a song of the lips but the deep expression of man’s soul. Finally we see' 2 marvellous har- mony and unity of action between ail | the forces of Nature. At times the | forces of Nature have seemed to be at war with one another, resulting in | endles¢ confusion. But this is far from being the real case. Sun and | wind and rain and the fertility of the | soil, all combine to produce the fruit | and flower and ripened grain. Take away any of these forces and the rest would be a complete failure. Take away the rain and we have no har- vest. Remove the sun, and again no harvest is possible. Subtract from | the soil its fertilizing power and no growth ig possible. »'s forces must and de work and the fine result is that the physical needs of the untold mil- Jlons of eurth are supplied from year to year. And this law of co-opera- tion, which we see 8o beautifully ex- | emplified in Nature, God is ceaselessly seeking to call into existence in hu- man society,—so that a blessed har- mony may prevail in every home, that the school may be guided by this | great principle of unity, or the indi- vidual congregation and the chureh | universal may be one. “Our goal i harmony and unity What is to be-done? Fit yourself to | the plan of God in universe. This is your main task in life.,” ROY-WOODS, wedding was solemnized at 9 o'cloek this morning in St. Mar: ! church, when Miss TRKatherine A. | Woods became thé bride of William | F. Troy of Reading.

It reveals how four years’ experience with 60,000 cars has enabled Hudson en- gineers to free it from many of the annoy- ances regarded as inevitable to all cars. It embodies the qualities which men said would make it the greatest car known. It Is Worth Waiting For Production on large scale is now un- der way. Dealers will have their demonstrating cars within a few days. You must not fail to see the new Hud- son Super-Six. Think of the history of earlier models. They have made a place in every branch of motor car use that has not been matched. The first Hudson Super-8ix, four years ago, increased motor power by 72% with- out added weight. It retained all the sim- plicity of the six. It minimized vibration. Proved In A Thousand Ways You remember how endurance was proved. Nothing to equal Hudson Super- Six records of performance had ever been known. Most of those stand today as achievements that no other car has been able to match. But one thing those feats did, you per- haps do pot know. They showed ways for deveiopment of subsequent models that find their expression in the new car soon to be offered. Hudson Motor Car Company Such a car could not possibly have come from any other organization. It takes years of experience to learn and develop the qualities we now offer. The same engineers responsible for the first Super-Six have watched it in its service for 60,000 users and now offer the new Super-Six as the expression of their greater knowledge. . Isn’t such a car worth waiting ‘for? Watch the papers for the arrival of the new Super-Six, then go see it. The New Price Is $1975 Hudson production will be twice as large this year as last. Because of that the new price for the 7-passenger phaeton will be $1975. Without the experience we now have such a car would have been impossible at ‘an earlier time, regardless of the price at which it sold. Still, as you know, the Super-Six has always been one of the world’s finest cars. You hear that on all sides. It has led all other fine cars in sales. There have never been enough to equai the demand. A like condition must surely obtain this year. But those who buy early will get early delivery. They have the records of every Hudson Super-Six as an assurance of its value. If you are on the point of buying a new car, go or telephone to your Hudson dealer. Perhaps he can tell you when you may see the new Hudson Super-Six. Detroit, Mich. Distributed by the Following in This Territory: o S, & Fo MOTOR SAILES CORP. 155 ELM STREET | Tel. 731
