Then Jesus said, 'I am tho Ilessurrectlon and tho Life,' and nsked her If she bclloved, She ans wered, 'Yes, Lord, I bellovo that You are the Son of the Living Qod.' That's tho way today.

'Because that by reason of Him many of the Jews went away, and believed In Jesus.' "Here -was Jesus. Ho used to walk down five or six miles to Bethlehem to Lazarus' home. And then He would go up to Jerusalem and preach and once when Ho was a long way off He walked through the field and plucked corn. And the Pharisees saw Him and began to find fault. O, I'd Ilka to have ibeen with Jesus and helped Him. But I couldn't and I'm lighting the same dirty bunch now. Well, ho was a long way off nnd Lazarus took sick and then sent for Jcbub and He re mained for two days and then came up. Martha went to meet Him. and, but Mary, don't forget Mary was loafing on the Job. Jtsus sent for her and when she came Jesus came and asked where they had laid him jond they said, Como nnd see,' and I Imagine Mary looking around behind Jesus' back and asking Martha what Ho had said, because she didn't como to meet Him. And then He said to roll tho stono away. "I'm called to preach; 'Rodey' to sing; Ackley to play the piano; tho choir to sing; you to do personal work. What will Jesus do? Ho will save. And when they saw the body they wept, and Jesus wept with them, Why did Jesus weep? Be cause Ho sympathized with them. He knew He could ralso him, but Ho sympa thized. That's the way today. He will sympathize with you and help you. And Ilo said, 'Lazaraus, come forth,' and he tamo out and Jesus Bald, 'Loose him and let him go.' "Now, there was a bunch of Pharisees there. Some said, 'Thou nrt the Christ, tho Son of God.' But others said: 'Let's kill Him. Let's get Him out of the way, or He'll have everjbody coming His way, "So these meetings make some glad, and others nre damning me and tho meetings and you.

WHEN BILLY SUNDAY BEGAN HIS CRUSADE FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS Young Ball Player, as Mem ber of the Phillies, Drew Crowds by the Fervor of His Pleas. "Billy" Sunday began his evnngollstlo work In Philadelphia nearly a Quarter of n century ago, When ho was tho centra fielder on tho Philadelphia National League baseball team, In ISM, he con ducted services that brought bigger crowds to tho churches than had ever been In them before. Sporting Life In tho Issuo of Scptemb r 13, 1S0O, says! "William A. Sunday, the young evnngol 1st, who Is well known as ccntro fielder of the Philadelphia Club, addressed young men last Bundny evening at the Fliflt Presbyterian Church, Ccntro nnd Chest nut Btrcets, Manayunk. Mora young men nnd boys attended tho First Presbyterian Church on this occasion than wcro ever known thero before, and within half an hour after the doors wero opened ovory scat In tho square, old-fashioned church was occupied. An enlarged choir rendered selected music for tho occasion, nnd uvon tho girls were In a state of plcnslng un certainty before the opening of tho serv ices, some of them Inquiring nnxlously whether Mr. Sunday would appear In full baseball regalia.' "Whan Sunday appeared on tho arm of Pastor Burns some of the boys could hardly refrain from giving him a send off, although thcro was Borne disappoint ment nt the absence of everything per taining to his profession. The famous Chicago sprinter was as self-possessed and cierlcal-looklng as the pastor hlm rclf, and ho conducted the opening serv ices as naturally as a clergyman with years of experience, Sunday took for his theme, Pslam, cxvl, 12 and 13. Among other things, he said: "David was probably recalling his past llfo when ho uttered tho words of tho text nnd thanked tho Lord for tho per sonal benefits toward him. As Inventions benefit the human race, so Christ Is a benefit to tho wholo world. No matter whether tho man bo a drunkard or a for ger, his sin will find him out, nnd you will find men, no matter In what station of life, nro all on the samo stratum when it comes to saving their souls. Bah'atlon for us required one equal with Qod, at the same tlmo a man without sin. Jesus Christ was the only Ono who could pay tho price for sin. Life Is full of perils, and God wants your whole life and de votion. He does not demand lt. It Is frco for you to take or let alone, but you must bo willing to take the risks of either. "You can't live apart from your sins. You can't llvo on this side of tho street nnd rent a houso on tho other side nnd commit all kinds of sin nnd wickedness there. Some try to do It. That's what clubhouses are for. I consider them moral lepers In a community places for men to Bpend their nights away from home and come homo unable to find the keyhole. You have often heard of tho horrors of war, but worse than all the horrors of war, famine and pestllenco Is tho wave of sin that has swept over this country from time Immemorial," PLAN THREE-DAY CARNIVAL Union Tabernacle Prepares Pleasing Program for Celebration.

DOWEY 0 (if eon was a humble man of a humble home, and was engaged in a humble task when the "Angel of the Lord" appeared to him and told Mm he was "a mighty man of valor," and called him to the stupendous task of delivering his people from the oppression of the enemy. Nothing new here, it' is aimply Ood repeating his method of taking the "weak things of tht world ta confound the mighty," History affords ample illustration, from Hoses ta Lincoln, of the Angel of Jehovah calling humble men to great service, Qldeon never dreamed he was a "mighty man of volor" till the Angel told him so, and pointed out a new path of service. He might have continued at his wheat threshing, butt fortunately for himself and hi people, he believed the Angel and followed his direction and it resulted in the eman cipation of a nation. The name of Gideon it now o synonym for faith, courage, power. That same Angel of Jehovah comes to men today, only in a different garb. He appears as the ANQBL OF OPPORTUNITY, beckoning all men to service. A few, like Moses, Qldeon, Lincoln, Garibaldi he calls to liberate a nation; the rest of us he beat to help a brother man. Soul, have you seen this Angel todavt He has surely called on you at your wheat-threshing, at the banking house ar workbench. Through the hunger of one, the tin of another, the tlcknett or sorrow of still another, this Angel of Opportunity, calls you to terve your fellow-men. ' Don't look into the sky for this Angel, but into your brother's need. Oppor tunity it alway't God's call to tervlce. There it a band of "Qideont today traveling men, everybody knowt them.

Most of the converts havo been escorted to tho platform and been presented to the evangelist by devout workers for the Kingdom. One man was overjoyed two nights ago because he had asked a drunkard to the services In Vie tabemaelo and had seen him converted. The Invita tion was given because a little girl had cried and asked' that some per son persuade her father to go to the meetings In aider that he might stop drinking and her home might become happy. Opportunities such as this may be found in every section of this great city. The harvest is plentiful, may the reapers not bo few. PHILLIPS. REY. C. H.
