Theme: A Nation's Warning.
/
Brooklyn, N. V.?Preaching- at the
Irving Square Presbyterian Church,
Hamburg avenue and Weirfield street,
on the above theme, the Rev. Ira
Wemmell Henderson, pastor, took as
his text Daniel 5:5: "In the same
hour came forth fingers of a man's
hand, and wrote over against the
candlestick upon the plaster of the
wall of the king's palace; and the
king saw the part of the hand that
wrote." He said:
This is a weird story- The incijdent
is gruesome. The circumstances
give pause for thought. The picture
is terrific. Belshazzar, the wicked
king, in the midst of revelry and vice,
surrounded by his retinue and the
parasites of a degraded court, flauntj

living God, finds that God is not
mocked, much less is He dead. The
animated hand points the tight end of
a long rope. It emphasizes a clear
warning of Jehovah. And it terrifies
the king.
Belshazzar had cause to fear. It is
no wonder that his knees knocked
and that his limbs shook, that he had
a fit, so as to say, of the ague. Well
he might. For Nebuchadnezzar the
king, his father before him, had had
an exhibition of the power and the
presence of God within the world.
He had harbored wickedness in his
heart and within his dominions and
God had humbled him. Belshazzar
therefore might have learned from
ancestral experience what would be
likely to be the sure result of his
many and perverse sins. Simple reasoning
might have led him to refrain
to try the patience of Jehovah to his
own undoing. But he would not be
taught. He would not even be
warned. And the same night Belshazzar
the king of the Chaldeans
was slain.
This weird tale is as useful as it
is gruesome and as illustrative as it
is terrific. It is admonitory, it
should be exemplary. It certainly affords
food for sober and continued
thought. It epitomizes a lesson that
bo many men and nations in the past
have failed or refused to grasp. The
lesson that a man cannot fool with
laws of morality and righteousness
and with the principles enunciated by
Almighty God and be safe or live for
long.
How often it has happened in history
that men and nations have waited
until the noose has tightened. How
many have flaunted their wilfulness
in the face of Jehovah with a seeming
calm superiority to the inevitable.
How many have refused to heed even
aner me ua.uu nets, tis it ?uc, mmcu
over against the wall of their own
lives. Louis presumed to defy God
and man and to exalt his whims above
the right. Aud his fatuousness prepared
the way for freedom's France.
George the Third moved to thwart
the plans of Providence in the new
world. Eut the political idiocy of
George the Third simply hastened the
ascendancy of George Washington.
America tried to demonstrate the
holiness of an unholy slavery and to
compromise principle. But God wrote
large upon the page of our national
history His ultimatum concerning the
rights of man with the red blood of
the flower of our manhood.
The lesson of Belshazzar is apropos.
It is pertinent. And it is nowhere
more needed than within the confines
of most Christian and civilized America.
To mention no others, it is of
practical value in our commercial and
governmental and ecclesiastical affairs.
For commerce has been made
the creature of the whims and fan
cies of unscruplous financiers. ine
Government has been, and is now being,
made the opportunity for thieves
and malefactors of every conceivable
political stripe. The church has been
dormant. In many quarters she has
been, so it would seem, dead. We
have been remiss in much. We have
been fast and loose in more. We have
deified wealth and permitted godlessness
to strut with little let or hindrance
upon the king's highway. God
knows we have been warned. Let
us trust that we shall heed the hand.
Let us not emulate Belshazzar.
No man may deny that we have
drifted fast toward the rocks of national
dishonor and disgrace in our
commercial affairs. The financial anu
commercial situation is a disgrace to
a free people, not to say of a Christian
nation. And bad as is the story
that comes directly to our ears it is
.not half of what may be told and but
lan adumbration of the catastrophe
that will follow as surely as that Cod
lives if we do not mend our ways.
The spectacle of a panic in the midst
of the most legitimate prosperity that

a far greater condemnation of our
methods and our career than any
sermon. Words cannot picture the
sinfulness of the situation so well r.s
can the fact with which we are face
to face. Any sane man can perceive
the outcome. None but a fool or a
knave would deny the sin. Shall we
shut our eyes to the writing hand?
Fast as we have drifted toward
commercial-and financial disaster we
have none the less swiftly progre-sed
in many quarters, and even now are
moving, toward political degeneracy.
The administration of our cities is a
by-word and a joke among the nations
of the world. As we contemplate
them ourselves we seem almost
to take delight to say that they are as
badly managed as they are. Certainly
many of us openly despair of
reformation and pronounce popular
self-government upon that point to be
and utter and a shameful failure.
The efforts of those who sit behind
the scenes and null the wires in our
national affairs are to accomplish the
discrediting and overthrow o? any
man or measure that is squared to
the unflinching application of the
rule of righteousness regardless of
the consequences or the cost. We
may well thank God that here and
there, especially in the South and
West, the citizenship of America is
bo keen to hear the breaking waves
and to steer the ship of our national
existence off impending shores. For
we must change our course, or we
will perish as the grass.
Similarly the church has been remiss.
The prevalent and profound
antagonism toward and distrust of
j the church upon the part of too large
a proportion of the working men and
careful thinkers of this land is a
warning that we would do well to
heed. We have exchanged leadership
for applause and conviction for ease.
We have become flabby. Multitudes
of men regard us as the protectors
and special pleaders, ior consideration,
of the privileged classes. We
are regarded as too prominently the
preservers of the status quo, the
brake upon a healthy progress. And
it is not strange. For the church has

Red and yellow are the dream colors
if Dr. Havelock Ellis is right.
No other hues come to the dreamer j

that red is the most primitive of col- I m

Red strikes the note of intense "
emotions. It is the color of joy, exultation,
jubilation. Savages paint E
themselves red and rejoice at seeing ,
each other in burning hues. German I
women of the early ages daubed j
their bodies with brilliant red and J
