giving sermons are being preached this
week about the I lies sings of wheat and

away the refuse of tin* cities. We
should thank him for the water which
washes our clothes and puts clean
sheets upon our beds and gives us
clean knives and forks ami napkin-
and tablecloths for our dining room •
and clean towels in our huthroouiK as
well as for the water we drink tin!

Gleanliness is not only next to godli
Hess, but it is a necessary minister to
godliness, for no man who is dirty can
approach God or man acceptably.
Water and Health.
Rut tin* blessing of cleansing water
has a deeper signitieanee than its at
dietie bendiceuecs. It is the fouuda
tion of ail good hygienic laws. It is
the om great means by which the
boards of public health tire fighting
back and eradicating the plagues which
in olden times used to decimate whole
regions. It is the one great means by
which the longt vity of the human race
is being im iv eed. This fad was pow
erfully exemplified in our Cuban and
Porto Rican experiences. For centuries
Cuba and Porto Rico had been the hot
beds of tin* yellow fever plague. Thou
sands upon thousands have died of this
awful scourge. The plague once start
ed has leaped across the strait of Flot
illa and fastened itself upon the penph
of our ow n land. Rut when the Span
ish American war was ended Major
General Leonard Wood, better known
by his truer title as Dr. Leonard Wood,
the private physician of President Me
Kinley. invaded Cuba and Porto Ri’-,,
with cleansing water. The miasmatic
swamps, nlicre were hatched the dead
!y inoipiitoes which carried the fatal
germs, were drained off. The streets
were demised and the awful plague of
yellow fever was stamped out. The
tropics were made inhabitable for
white men. Water, deansing witter, is
tin' greatest em my of disease of ai!
sorts. Than . God for tin* water with
which we wash. Thank him for the
wilier with whidi we are making titan
;t healthy' animal, able to overcome all
diseases exc ept the fatal disease of old
age.

Our Water Highvways.
lint we have still another reason wh.,
the American nation should is* thank
ful for its water. It produces the grain
and the cotton ;.,.d turns the wheels of
the factory. It also furnishes Ihegrt*:.
highways over which the eoinmoditie-
vf one part of tlie country are trim-'
ported to other parts of the country,
and this Iilessing is nut eontiuod to oar
long coast waterways w hich the Puna
tna i . rial w ill soon ( oiineet, but it also
cnual olillgated itself (<• pay the vast
sum of iSoM.!mKt.imhi. When tlie eauul
was flnlshed there was a national hol
iday of thanksgiving. Yet tin* Erie ca
nal Is only a small part of the huu
dreds of miles of inland waterway over
which today great tleets of ships
crowded with passengers and millions
of tons of freight an* annually carried.
Then study your vast Mississippi
water system 'l in* recent trip of the
president of the Fnited States down
this river visiting the great cities
which line its hanks lias illustrated for
the public mind what thD river and its
tributaries mean to us as u nation.
What would Vicksburg and Gairo and
Memphis and St. Louis and Kansas
City and Keokuk and Davenport and
St. Paul and Louisville and < im iuuati
and Wheeling and Pittsburg do with
out this vast system of Mississippi \va-
1 ter way sV This river and its trilmtaries
i founded these cities as tin* Mi' higan
lake made <’hi ago. That river i- one
of the great arteries carrying the life
blood of our nation.
The Coast Waterways.
Then open your map again and study
the vast waterway system of our coast
fronts. What today puts Maine in
commercial touch with Texas and fills
the factories of the Mcrrhnae with cot
ton from New Orleans and Mobile bay?
Tlie railroads? No; it is the
i boat. Why are the harbors of the
Golden Gate and San Pedro crowded
with lumber boais? Because Oregon
and Washington states and California
are one by tiie pathways of the seas.
And. though tiie Fnited Slates govern- ;
nient is to spend over 83**0,000,000 to
bring New York and San Francisco
nearer by cutting tin* isthmus of Pana
ma in two. yet it is worth all the cost,
for where we transport by water the
business men and farmers have their
expenses reduced to a minimum. Then
cities and towns will not only increase
In the west, but there will i«* more
goods to be iitad)*, more oranges to lie
grown more prosperity everywhere.
Thank God for the rivers and the lakes
and the miv n highways, whieli have
so helped by their transportation op
portunities to make our national pros
perity what it Is.
Again, let im thank God for the At-
lanti can, w hieli i- on tin* east of us,
and tiie Pacific ocean, which is on the
west of us. which separate us from all
tin* entanglement- of European polities
and from tin* Asiatic embroilments of
interna time! I jealousies and contests.
It was the custom of the ancient earls
to surround their ensiles with moats
filled with water. At night tin* draw
bridge would be lifted, the castle gates
closed, and the inmates were prac
tically safe frniii any at'urking foe
Well, God has dntn* for us as a nation
what tin* earl did fur hi> castle, lie
lias placed a tnoal three thousand miles
wide on the eust of us. which we call
tlie Atlantic. Me has plueed a moat
more than leu thousand miles wide on
the west of us. which we call the Pa
cific. And in military or naval par
lance these moats are practically Im
passable. our nation is not so much
protected by ihc guns of its warships
and the fortitie.-iiions of it- harbors as
by the immense masses of water that
separate us from an invading foe. ’Tls
true we must have a navy. It is also
true we must h.ave the skeleton of an
army. Rut tin* greatest guarantee of
the future of the Fnited States govern
ment H not our war guns or our coast
fortifications, but these immense bodies
of water surrounding u- on tlie east
and west. Now that we Ire soon to
have the Panama canal marry the two
seas no foreign nation on earth could
successfully invade u> We may de
stroy ourselves. I nit we ran never be
destroyed by a foreign foe. Thank
God for the waters that create our na
tional prosperities. Thank God also
for the waters which defend us from
foreign foes.
Water In the Deserts.
Lasily. | thank God not only for
what he has done for tliis country by
the power of water, but also for what
be is going to do by the same power.
If you have ever traveled across oar
continent, you have gone days and
days thrungh w hat an* called our des
ert- Those are not deserts of sand
like tlie Sahara. They are deserts that
will prove to be the finest and richest
of soil if wo only irrigate them and
bring wat -r to them. Let a rain fall
upon Ari'/una -oil and within a few
days tba * I: ml is covered with grass
and w iId ;!o.. rs as far as the eye can
see. No conservatory is as wondrous
ns that Inch God plants in the Ari
zona de erts when the rain falls. All
these di.-er!- are soon to be redeemed
They are to form some of (lie richest
garden- at I farms of the world.
I was never more impressed with
this fact than when reading lately an
article b William Gi*i,rgi* showing
how Australia is being redeemed by a
system of artesian wells. Some of
those wells have o be sunk more than
two thousand feet Rut If they nre
sunk deeti enough
teslan wells, by pipes and reservoirs,
by the storing up <>1 (lie rainfall, oui
deserts nre yet to hlo-som as the rose.
Theodore Roosevelt well said in one of
ids public addresses, "The forest and
water problems ate perhaps the most
vital internal (piesiions of tin* Fnited
I States." J liese questions an* daily fl
ing solved Mote and more the Aineri
can people are being enabled to co,.
(pier lin* soil which ha heretofore bee.
supposed to be useless and forev
! dead to tic* magic touch of tin* eulli
va tor.
\Yliiie # I was writing this sermon 1 .
had Ihc* strangest of companions to !
help me. Perhaps that is one of the j
reasons why 1 was so thankful when j
writing it. My study is on an open |
porch whit h overlooks my California !
garden. I meetly across this garden
strelehes a telephone wire. Then*, day j
airier u:i.\ a ittie ni->- i.ing bird comes |
and si;- rmi ings. No sooner do I i
eonniii i ■• to ' rite than he tiles to thi-
i wire ami pen lies there. Then lie see;::
to say : "At your Thanksgiving seriumi ;
ngiin? Well, 1 will help you t » sing
your praises of water.” , l'li««« In* lift-
up his pri tty head, and the most beau
liful notes come forth from that little
throat, and he turns and says: "Is not
! that song pretty? Well, I will singy-m
another.” Then off he starts to ting
steam- anothet musical masterpiece.
On tliis last day of my labors there
