He also has intimated plainly that, unless they comply, Uncle Sam will have to undertake the task. The banks respond only very balk iiy. Admonistrationisrs refer to this as a "strike of capital.” Their view is that the average cap italist an ultra-conservative hates the New Deal because of what he consid ers its radlealisb and deliberately is trying to wreck it by going into hid ing with his much-needed fluid re sources and that he intends to stay in hiding, with that specific idea in mind, until it does go on the rocks. BANKERS’ VIEWS The bankers deny that they are on strike. They point out, with considerable cogency, that, in times like these, they must keep on hand plenty of ready money, to meet sudden demands by large numbers of their depositors. They are afraid to loan it out, they say, with the possibility of runs con tinually hanging over them.

February 24 ** (Read Luke XVIII: 1-8)’ “And Not to Faint" If there is danger in repeating the same prayer too often there is danger also in not repeating it often enough. Os our Lord’s three parables on pray er, two stress tho value of persistency. A common blunder is to give up too soon. Because God does not give us at once what we ask, we lose hope. It is by persever an c e that we build up in ourself the character essential to make us? of, the blessings for which we are asking. The parables of the, churlish neighbor nml the heartless judge represent God.

That) . • Kl “Somewhere East of Suez, Where a Man Can Dinse a Thirst!” WMs* misses the point entirely. The lesson is that persistency is such a mighty force that it often conquers the most despicable and stubborn specimens of human nature conceivable, and that it is certain therefore to prevail in our dealing with the tender-hearted and justice-loving Judge of all the earth. Prayer: O God of patience, have mercy on us yet awhile and we shall endeavor to do better. We confess our fickleness and our unwillingness to wait on Thee. Give us the grace •of holding on. May we ask and keep on asking, kknowing that at last we shall receive. Amen, SUNDAY, February 25 (Read Mark IX: 17-29) ' “Only Believe” Only a trustful spirit can pray with boldness and joy. Doubt cuts the nerve of prayer and blocks access to the heart of God. We must believe not only that God is, but that He is the reward<er of them who diligently seek Him. Wo do not actually believe in prayer unless we believe that play er is answered. Offering petitions is not enough. There must lie replies. The replies must he not only wished for hut looked for and expected. A Christian lives in the atmosphere or anticipation. AH asking and no re ceiving leaves the heart disappointed and hungry. The prayer life of Josus was built on a tremendous belief in God. Nothing in his disciples so amazed and saddened him as their feeble faith. Nothing so delighted him as an unexpected exhibition of daring confidence in God. Even a litlo faith made him jubilant. He was sure that faith small as a grain of mustard seed ►an accomplish results which men commonly reckon impossible. No ex hortation was oftener on his lips than ' .—“Have faith in God. Only believe.” Prayer: O Thou God of patience, ; 'have pity on us yet awhile and we 1 shall try to do better. We refuse to give ourselves up to Thee completely and that is why our victories! are few and our defeats are many. Lord, in crease our faith! We believe, help Thou our unbelief. Amen. Rev. Isaac W.

Nashville, Tenn., Feb. 24. —A fifty dollar bill in circulation, especially in church circles, is considered a mon strosity in these days, though in high favor, it is said. Recently Dr. John D.

However, beginning with the first of this year, Dr. Tripp and his committee were given the right of way for two months to complete ihe task of bringing the club up to its maximum st rength of 100 non mem hers, each paying a. dollar a moinh. over and above, for the denomiu.'t* tionnl debt retirement. Tt is too •eariy yet, says Dr. Tripp, to appraise properly the results of tne special efforts last Sunday, which was designated among Southern Bap tists as ‘‘Baptist Hundred Thousand Club Day.” It is expected that the movement will reach its climax to morrow.
