I. The Origin of Sin (Gen. 3:1-24). t<'
Mau was placed on probation in the
Garden of Eden. The means used In QJ
the testing of man were most simple. fjj
God issued just one prohibition, and
alongside of the I t ee of knowledge of y
good and evil was placed the tree of j n,
life. To this tree man had access, j ^
Satan, a personal being, appeared in ^
the guise of a serpent. He induced
Eve to doubt both the Word of God ^
and the love ol* God and then appealed
to innocent appetite. She gazed n1
up??n and lusted after that which God 10
had forbidden. Following her yielding ef
to the suggestion of Satan, she induced n
Adam to disobey God. We see from this st
that so far as the human race is conccrr.ed
sin originated in the free choice ci
of the head of the race and through ni
the law of heredity passed upon all
mankind. ?
II. The Universality of Sin (Ituin.

By the use of many quotation! 'c<
from the Scriptures, Paul proves unit ot
inxaritti ?l lilt! r.'lCC IS gUllt.V Of J?
SiU. C(
Ml. The Destiny of Sinners (Con.
6:5-8).
Man's rebellious disobedience to God a,
was followed by Ids resolution to dcctrcy
the rice- f?!T? ?l' Mm ..
earth. God's holy nature is such that L*
the sinner must be punished. The only ^
escape from the wrath of God !s J
through the Savior who was provided
by God in the person of his Sou.
IV. The Divine Remedy for Sin
(John 3:14, 15; isa. 53:4-9).
The sinless Sou ot' God took the ^
place of the sinner by becoming ineorporated
with the nice through the m
incarnation. As a human being he ^
rendered perfect obedience to the law P1
of God, fulfilling every demand and
on the cross of Calvary made a vlcarl- F
ous atonement for sin. Just as the \\
Israelites who were bitten by the gi
venomous serpent were healed by look- c?
ihg to the brazen serpent lifted upon cc
the pole, so Is the sinner saved from
sin by looking to the one who was b(
made a curse for sin in his sacrifice on n.
Calvary (11 Cor. 5:21). tl'.
V. Repentance Necessary (Acts '
The one who hears the gospel message
and receives the crucified Savior
not ouly has forgiveness or sin; but ^
turns from sin to God and thus repouts.
On the Day of Pentecost Pe- sc
ter's gospel message, which centered 111
in the Lordship una Saviorhooil of b?
Jesus Christ, convicted the people of b<
their e?**? The evidence of their faith Vi
in Christ was manifested in their con sc
vicliou of sin and their penitence was pi
shown in their confession of Christ in b;
baptism. tt
VI. The Forgiving God (Luke in
15:11-24). ci
The center of things in this parable ai
is neither the prodigal son nor his oi
brother, but the "certain man who
had two sons." Lie who fails to see
the heart of our Father God will miss
the purpose of this parable. 4 t
1. The con'a lne?hftp4Jnnt*An fv io\ ^
The son's desire for freedom moved ^'T
him wilfully to choose to leave home. es
2. The sou's departure (v. 13). Llav- 01
ing uiade the fatal decision, he went
posthaste to the enjoyment of his
cherished purpose.
3. The son's degeneration (vv. 13, er
14). From plenty in his father's house
to destitution in a far country
uns a short Journey. The sinner real- (
izes his destitution when the very powers
which minister to his pleasures are 1
burned out. I
4. The son's degradation (vv. 15,
10). When his money was exhausted, \
he was driven to hire out to a citizen j
to feed swine. It is ever so. that those ' t
who will not serve God arc made j i
slaves to the devil (Rom. 6:1Q). ; r
5. The son's restoration (vv. 17-24). | t
a. He came to himself (v. 17). b. He j c
made a resolution (v. lb), c. He j
made a confession (vv. 18, 19). d. He j
acted (v. 20). e. Reception by his .
father (vv. 20-24). j f
The father had not forgotten his t
son. So anxious was he for him that t
he ran to meet him and fell upon his
neck and kissed him i

lAI'PINESS ... a by-product
There is a whole sermon in a rciark
that Henry Ford's secretary
lade the other day. In Mr. Ford's
usiness creed, he said, if one goes
Lit primarily for profit he misses it,
rofit, like happiness, being a byroduct.
Happiness as a by-product will
trike marv as a new idea: but that
i precisely what it comes to. Ilappiess
is not something that can be caplred
by pursuing it. It is only attined
by pursuing something else.
The road to happiness is the road
f self-respecting duty, of loyalty to
bligatFons, or unselfish goodwill toard
others. Tt may not be- seldom :
- the road to riches or to power, j
he time comes in everybody's life j
hen the decision has to be made be-1
vecn the pursuit of pleasure or the j
iirsuit. of duty.
Exactly the same is true of bus! .
ljss. Business Uiat does not put serve
and quality, fair dealing and hon- i
sty first, never in the long runj
takes a real profit. If profit is the j
>le motive of a business, that bust- j?
Iss lacks the solid basis that will i
lable it to weather depressions and *
leet competition.
ANDIDATES . . . and parade jj
This is the time, a year and half
ttfore the Presidential nominating: \ f
inventions, when each party trots
it its potential candidates for pub-.
c inspection. There wont* be any! c
mtests for the Democratic nominaons,
but all ovei tlie country people '
re asking: "Who have the Republic- '
is got?" jt
The oilier night three men stood on
ic aavr.e platfor!?^iPVl-^sppke at the! c
incoln Day Dinner of the National c
epublican Club. One was Herbert jj
cover My guess is that he would j
tve a very firm "No" to an invitaon
to run again: also that he is not ;i
kcly to Vie asked. Another of the |
iree was Harry Hoffman of New
irsey. Mr. Hoffman is looked on by
any as the "white hope" of his par*.
Much will depend upon how he
^rforms as Governor.
The third of the group was Glenn
rank, president of the University of |
"isconsin, able political analyst,
rowing lately in public regard betuse
of his calm but penetrating
>mmcnt.c: on the New Deal.
There are lots of "prospects" to
i heard from. The one finally nomiUed
will be the one who seems like
le best vote-getter in 193t>. It's goig
to be an interesting game to
atch.
UTIMTY ... of the hour
Not in many years have there been
) mrtr?y utterly futile projects to
ake everybody happy, seriously dotted
by men who ought to know \
'iter. From Hiiey Thong's "Share the !
realth" scheme, through Dr. Town- j
shti's *500 n month old age pension j
an. Father Coughlin's notions about j
inking and finance, and several of |
ic just as wild tilings talked about j
i Congress which would make it a j
*ime for an industry to be big or
t individual to get rich, they all have ]
\e purpose in common.
~inai is pontics.
No intelligent person believes fori
moment that under any scheme j
hich is possible of adoption in the j
nited States, the ablest and smart- s
it would not soon have more than
Le incompetent and the stupid, no j
atter what the laws were. But poli- *
sians, who know better themselves, |
ive found they can fool many vots
by promising the impossible.
VII. Justification the Issue of Faith
Rom 5:1-11).
The one who receives Jesus Christ
9 declared righteous. Ills guilt Is re oved;
he has peace with God
Ordeal*
The hardest of all ordeals for an hon?st
Ulan is to stand arraigned nt the
>nr of his own conscience. He knows
nore than the keenest, the most vlnlictlve
enemy could urge for a verdict
f guilty.
Charity
A man's charity to those who differ
pSa him upon great and difficult quesions
will be In the ratio of his own
mow ledge of them, the more knowl:dge,
the more charity.?Norman Mcleod.

Agnostic Reliefs.
CHICAGO. On his 7oth birthday
Clarence Dcurovv t above), noted
criminal lawyer, talked on Jife,
death and God. L.ong known as an
agnostic, he reaffirmed his conviction
that after life there is "nothing."
DISTRIBUTION . . . faulty
I tried to buy some Northern Spy
ipplcs in o. neighborhood grocery the
>ther day. All 1 could get were fineooking
but?to me- tasteless Western
apples, shipped from 2,500 miles
iway. Northern Spies grow only 25(1
niles from the New York market.
The same day my wife wanted
tome Florida oranges. None of the
learbv stores had any but Callfornias,
vliich we hold inferior. They had
tome 3,000 miles; Florida is only a
housand miles away.
Organized distribution versus unorpmisred
marketing is the answer. Untie
Sam is paying a lot of attention
heso days to agricultural production,
t would be of far greater public
tervice to reorganize the distribution
ncthods of food products.

AliEV IKGES MOKE SILAOE
FOR WINTER STOCK IrE
treading farmers and dairymen
now ; !aiming to produce an adequ
supply of silage for feeding their st
1 next winter.
Cock.! silage is one of the best fe
that can be given animals in win
says John Arey. extension dairvn
at State College, and he is urging
farmers to include silage in their f
raing budget.
Silage is cheap, he points out.
i cause a large amount can be p
. duecd on a small acreage. It loses
Ue food value while in storage, i
; provides succulent and nutritive f
at a time when pasture grass is
available.
i The acreage which must be allot
; to corn to produce a desired tonn?
i of silage depends largely upon
productivity of the soil. Corn tl
! will produce fifty bushels of gr
| to the acre will yield about ten t<
1 or silage, or enough to feed three ;
! crage cows six months.
Although Texas seeded ribbon a
has only 72 per cent of the milk p
i ducing value of corn, when conve
| cd into, silage, it will produce fr<
, 50 to ^0 per cent more tonnage to t
j acre, according to tests conducted
: the South Carolina experiment s
; tion.
Only a few dairymen in this stj
lhave grown the ribbon cane for
| lage, but A.rey believes the results <
jlained will warrant a more gene
j use of it. especially by farmers w
t rench silos. It will pack in the *
| better than corn.
Corn plantings for silage should
' between May J and .July 1. but I
f i best results are obtained from pla
, ings made between May ir> and Ji
'15. Texas seeded ribbon cane shot
be planted between May 1st and M
,: 15tli.
, The advent of the trench silo shoi
j lead to a greater usage of silage
I j small herd owners, A ley states.
, j tliir-i type of silo is easily adapted
I all herd siaes.

o;
are Every farm boy is interested In
animal life, and desires something- of P'
?rj, his own to feed and handle. vV
"One of the best ways of fulfilling;
these natural desires is to buy the; ,
?ds boy a pure-bred, registered calf and;?*
ter. enroil the boy into the 4-H. Club.
lan where he can learn how to feed and
all care for his animal to best advan-jw

specialist at State College.

c" ly every county of the State and the j ^
'ro~ county farm agent or his assistant | ^

nid and suggestions as to proper methods

iv- "If the boy is given a pure bred 4_
calf, his club activity in connection
