C, MONDAY, JULY 3, 1922! '; WHAT THE MATTER IS J -; Don't fail to read the article by Dr. :1 R. C Beaman elsewhere in this ls ; sue; It was written as a report to the 7. Rockingham district conference on The Spiritual State of the Church", uuk jruu may, u jrou vnooae, eliminate all reference to Methodism in it and it will, lose none of its value. It is well worth reading and pondering. It is a vivid portrayal, drawn with a ' masterly hand, of conditions that are demanding the serious, attention of thoughtful people of every denomina tion,; and it is a stirring , appeal to gird op their loins and stem the tide. , Vast multitudes of people have tilted - their chins and are strolling insolent ' ly hell-ward, ignoring every danger signal. As Dr. Beaman sayt . ?the uvns vi vanity air , were never more, gaily decorated and never' more crowded with an eager and careless . throng than at. this, hour. ....We may build a college at every cross roads and an academy on every , hill, until our culture exceeds that of Greece, and pile up money until our wealth reaches to the stars; but if we forget God, repudiate the old Book, tear down the altar and to pray, we are simply hurrying to neii, though we travel in a twin-six upholstered in green plush, or sail the heavens in a sky-pullman reading the latest Marconiorjima n fV. ,,. nothing can save our homes and this republic but the : gbspel of t 'Jesus Christ translated into life, and to this end we urge our preachers and lay 1 - - . . m . leaaers to lift up their voices like a trumpet and .call the people back to God." ww . - ... location is largely a matter of learning what to be afraid of. The child is not afraid of fire until it learns from experience that it will not do to monkey with that beautiful thing. There is an epidemic among older people of playing with vari colored fires.
