. )laced God before His. mother, , be-|
, v fore Hi? business, before His father
and before His pleasures. Some of
w never think of God until we lay
upoa the flat of our badk? in illnes&
or misfortune,' or until the black
clouds of financial distress gather.
\ Then wanting to pay' our bills, and
not knowing how to do it. we raise
, our eyes to heaven and say: "God
help me."
What were your first thoughts
? when you arose this morning? Did
you thank God for your abundant
health, wholesome food and many other
favors. Thousands are blind and
think that they are the whole show
and never have to thank God for the
" - blessings they have.
Christians should thank God for another
glorious day of service, should
ask Him. what His program is for
. thenv this day. There are those who
? insist "on having their own way and
will. Are you greater than God?
. k Can you trifle with Christ? Is Chris.
-first in your home or in your businesf
interests ? I am pleading with you to
jet the finest in your rule. Are you
. following Him? Is He first?
'./ - .The* man who is a true follower of
Jesus is he who loves and obeys Him,
and* in this obedience enthrones God
first, before his business, before his
- pleasure, and he that does this will
hot lose. 'Anyone that does not follow
Cmist is not a Christian. Be honest,
be big enough to do big things. Those
Christians who cannot place Chris,
first in everything should go to their
pastor and ask to have their names
stricken from the church roll.
Jesus was saturated in prayer. We
read where He withdrew from the
multitude to pray. His most thrilling
moments, His most momentous
achievements.* Christ retired to some
mountain and there sought the solitude
of prayer, praying for hours at
a time. Yes, He was saturated with
the art of prayer. The light of God
is in man's soul, only as the man lives
in an atmosphere of prayer.
My father, Gipsy Smith, Sr., preach<-d
for 45 years and he only had five
weeks' schooling in his life. -He was
signally honored on five continents,
and I know that much of the grace
that came to him, was through the
medium of prayer. The first time he
hoard the story of Jesus was when he
was a lad of 16. Then someone crave
him a Bble and the young nomad, unlettered
njid untutored, did not know
when he held the Bible upside down
Cfi not as he could not read a single
uord, but he clasped the Book to
his. heart, and on his knees he prayed
that his heart might be filled with the
s pirit of God.
1 believe that the reason he was so
blessed was because he cultivated the
spirit of prayer.
Let me ask this question: Where
are the elders of this church on prayer
meeting night? Where are the
deacons ? Where are the Sunday
school teachers, the ushers and the
members of the congregation, where
pre they on prayer meeting night?
They can go to the club, the theatre
in moat any meeting except prayer

church is the prayer life.

ever' vu a day in the history
of the church when we have ?
nad such magnificent church buildings n
uu- we do now; there never was a time h
when we have had such magnificent u
music or mote able ministers in our -j
pulpits of when the laymen have giv- 1
en so much of their means and time, h
Take the buildings, the great ora- n
tors, the beautiful music, the culture h
and consecrate them to the cause of
Jesus, but without prayer they all li
.ume to naught. j:
The placing of Christ before every- ?
thing else is essential. The church i
of Jesus cannot play second fiddle to t
anything without losing out, without f
dying spiritually. t
Do you pray? Are you intimate
with God? It was the passion of i
Christ's life to help the lowly and \
whe afflicted. When he went into a 1
town it was to get hold of the lost J
man, woman or child, whom nobod> I
< Ise wanted to have anything to do i
with. In one instance Jesus stopped |
a woman of ill repute, who was shun- \
ned by all others because of her bao 1
character. He talked to this woman.
She took an inward look and got a t
vision of herself nnd when she left
nhi> went hark to h?>r viIIhcp unrl 1
as the result of the message she took
with her, she caused a revolution in <
the life of that town. When she met ;
Jesus she was a sinner, but when she i
eft Him she was a saint.
And so, the spirit of Jesus has en- i
tered the hearts of hundreds of the '
world's greatest writers, orators,, phi- <
losophers, statesmen, artists and i
poets. i
The Gipsy tribe of which I was a 1
member \\as regarded as the scum of
the earth. No ministers ever came "
to our tribe and told us the story of i
the life of Christ, but an old Metnl
odist layman, who could not speak a <
half dozen words of the Queen's English
correctly, did, and as a result our
old tent began to shine with the light
of the truth. The result of that unpretentious
missionary work is being
felt today, and five members of my
Gypsy clan are today dedicating their
lives to the spreading of the gospel
in \arious parts of the world.''
Any fool can sing ''Rescue the Perishing,"
but have any of you Christians
ever taken off your coats and
helped to do any of the rescuing? I
tell you that it is downright blasphemy
to sing "Rescue the Perishing,"
and then stop there. Your prayers
never reach fulfillment until you
d;\est yourselves of your coats and
start doing some rescue work of your
cwn.
If you are a follower of Jesus
Christ you will select a day now and
then, drop your work and see if you
cannot bring some young fellow that
is in danger of going wrong. How
many of your Christian women have
put your arms around an erring girl
and said: "My dear, I want to help
you?" More likely you have been
among those that instead of helping
have pushed her farther down. The
Bible cannot be a fire escape for those
who stand by and. see unfortunates
go to the devil.
Iiave you ever gone off the wellbeaten
path to bring some sin-cursed
soul to the living Christ? Religion ,
does not consist only of singing pret- |
ty songs and pious hymns. Religion ,
is in helping to bring sin-cursed souls
back to the Master. (

Too late for publloatluu on the wy*
P*f* latf week, but novertoo lute
be repeated 0d reiterated in the
oet conspicuous place possible, was
e statement of President Harding
Congressman Mondell, published in
e editorial columns of our last issue,
which President Harding, in very
far-cut Sentences, struck straight
ime at unwise drastic financial defla>n
as the cause of the terrific busi.
>ss apd agricultural depression in
81,
President Harding's statement,
bich we repeat, was as follows:
"The national fiscal policy has been
rected to arrest the too rapid defla>n
which had set in, and to this end
ere has been a progressive reduc-'
m of the Federal Reserve discount
ite. As a result of these policies
iberty bonds have progressively risi
in value. The general financial
tuation has steadily improved, and
day the country has a brighter prosset
ahead of ita business, industryid
agriculture than at any time since
ir mistaken program of drastic deition
adopted by those who wert
ten in control of government poliea."
Notwithstanding all the Dower of
te bis financial interests of New
ork to secure the reappointment
' W. P. G. Harding as the head of
le Federal Reserve Board, it would
>t be possible for President Hardig,
after his arraignment of the
lanagement of the Federal Board,
i re-appoint him without stultifying
imself and making such an appointent
the ridicule of the country. Nor
>uld be properly appoint as gover>r
any other man who as a member
T the board co-operated in that deation
work. Indeed, it would seem
lat these men, thus vigorously repuiated
by the president, should imediately
resign, unless they are sad.
lacking in the sense of what is
roper under the circumstances. This
ation may, therefore, rejoice that
me of the men who by unwise mangement
of the Federal Reserve
oard brought about a deflation which
vept out of existence not less than
iirty billion dollars of value, which
ankrupted hundreds of thousands of
irmers, which caused the suicide of
undreds of people driven to despair
y reason of hopeless indebtedness,
in possibly be appointed as governor
T the Federal Reserve Board in the
ght of the denunciation by President
arding of the result of that man;emout.
Well may the country take courage.
Tell may the farmer once more hope
>r a living profit from his labors,
fdll may those who believe that the
nancial honor of the country should
e above reproach, rejoice that that
Lanagement, which has been overbed
and denounced by the United
tates Circuit Courts of Oregon and
Kentucky, and by the Supreme Court
t the land wherever State banks have
ad the courage to fight its iniquitous
:hemes, can not again be in power.
E the Federal Reserve System is to
e saved to the countrv not onlv
