One of these is the potential trouble due to hardness ami brittleness of the blood vessels. "Hardening of the arteries,” has be come one of the popular ierrors. Its im portance is grossly ovrtwtated. I be lieve, but yet it must be admitted there is some foundation for the common fear of its results. As we gyow older onr bone* aud tis sues lose their flexibility and eleastieity. Brittleness is found where pliability used to be. Ainond the parts affected are the walls of the blood vessels. Under the finger the arteries feel like whip l cords. The reason why prisons past 00 or 60 should not. indulge in violent exercise is because of this change in the blood ves sels. Undue pressure may cause one of the brittle walls to crack. Worse than all other accidents of this nature is a break in one of the blood vessels of the brain. This permits the blood to ooze into thh brain substance. How serious tills will prove depends ou the part of the brain involved and the prfssqre produced. All cases of brain hemorrhages are important be cause of the possibility of paralysis and loss of brain function. The best means of protection against hardening of the arteries lies in the sim ple life. Moderate eating. moderate drinking, and moderating iin all things are the secrets of safety./ When tile Train Was Due. Passenger, to negro porter while on train for New York: “What time do we get to New York. George?” Porter: "We is due to get there at 1:15, unless you has set your watch by Eastern time, which would make it 2:15. Then, of co’se, if you is goin' by day light savings time, it would be 3.15. un less we is an hour an' fifty minutes late— which wc is.” - - ■' ■ ' - u 'A'-|7i ~I I [|-mT IN AM) ABOUT THE CITY Im - ------- --- - _ . iHn ' ■ - ■ml in URGES HEARERS TO THINK ' AND THEN TO RELIEVE Rov. T. F, Higgins' Preaches Effectively at Foreot HJU Method** Church San Rtf. Taking as his text “And all that be- I lieved were t(*etber,” Acts 2 :44, Rev. T. F. Higgins, pastor of Forest Hill Method ist Church, preached effectively to a large congregation yesterday morning at the II o'clock service. Mr. Higgins urged ' his hearers o ttjink and lielieve and to put their beliefs into practice. , Mr. Higgins is one of the new Con t r ' or <l pastors, haying been sent here last November. He has become very, popular in tbe city since his arrival and is , doing a very fine work at Forest Hill . The text of,his sermon is os follows: “We are often ]>ointed to the Day of ' Pentecost as being the greatest day in , the history of the Christiah Church. Truly it was a great day. The great ness is many times lost s : ght of, however, because of the vague interpretation that is placed upon the teaching. Something happened on this day. People were mov ed out of the settled formalistic form of life into new actions. Borne people call ■ it the work of the Holy Ghost as it manifest itself in the lives of the people. - This.no doubt, is true. Thera were, how ever, certain things which prepared the i people for the experience through which ■ . they went. ' “Peter the disciple who was the' spokesman of the Jmur. paved the way. It was due to the change of theological • viewpoint in Peter that caused him to f boldly go before the erowd who had call 's ed out 'crucify Him, crucify Him,’ awl - there flraaeh to them a Gpd of love. Pet er the mat) who had been following the Master lor most three years, bad not ! learned t(ie real meaning of Christ and His miss'on in The world. Through this time he had been thinking along tbe Hue of Jewish tradition aud Jewish theology. He had been called blessed by bis Master but he bad not put full meaning into the name which the Master gave him. "His Master had been crucified and the task of making the church function rested upon the disciples and as he fac ed the task he had! to think through it and get the heart of the work which was to be done. His thinking soberly upon what was fundamentally and real in the gospel gave him a new theology, and lijy was a new man atul preached a now mes sage. “His message was that God through love had made his best revelation through Jesus. This mode of God's revelation and activity you have absolutely rejected. Now this sime God in the activity of the Spir't is ready to help you in the right, therefore you tyid better save yourselves and see this God as one who loves and as one who is doing His best for you in all the conditions of life. . “Thus three thiugs were carried out 1 which caused the day to be a great day for Christianity. These three things will cause Christianity to have still greater days. “I. They began to tlrnk. This was a bold act ou the part of Peter to come before this mob who had jffst put an end to the work of Jesus and there boldly de clare that Jesus was the mode of God’s activity for them and that they had ab solutely rejected it. I "This caused the jteople to begin to think spt-iously upon the real significance of Jesus. The more they thought about I his interest in. humanity the more of the i love of God they saw. Then shall we say that they had no right to think about what God has done through Jesus? We! are veryßpt to throw up our hands and! say that no one hits a right to ask ques tions, about Jesus, and that, the turst fmj-i daraental thing to do is to aceept Him. | No! repeatedly no: tbe first fundamental 1 tb ; hg tq.,do is put accept Hint. I re-1 ’ joitc fvhcu I see some person whp is | willing to think qnd ask questions about j Jesus to see if He had something worth while. The thing needed Is th.qt which < wc are doing very little of and that is j thinking, in order that our deeds may be better: i I "We have certain gifts from God. and the mind and reasoning power is the one ] gift which must be used or, it ceases to | fuuetiou. Wheu the mind ceases to func-; ! tion there is it® will, for the mind is the 1 force that puts will into action. To our. | regret there are certain forces working' I over our country trying to stop the work i of education aiul man's efforts to under-] stand life. What we need Is more se-1 riotts and sober thinking, thinking aud that so guided that it will always bring man face to face with life and light. I “There lias never happened in the Hfe : time or knowledge of any of us where the' Holy Ghost has picked up a lunatic and made a first class Christian man or! woman of that person. YVhy. because he could, not think. : '~J. They began to believe. In our' day there are two. extremes to which we may turn. We may go out with the at titude that it does not matter what you believe just so you lire right. Hera wo see the trouble comes back to caceless thinking. When ■ a person thinks little, be believes less. I had rather see people . take a half truth think it over and be-] ' Heve it aud tbeu go out aud pnt it into action, than to see people take a truth > sit down with-it. not think about it. uot , believe it and never put it iuto practice. ' “Belief is always the outgrowth of • what you have been thinking. Take tbe person who thinks little about moral principles, he believes less and practices! none. | "Peter caused his hearers to think' about God in love, doing what He did in Jesus for their good and they began to believe u Jesus. Talk to me about be lieving in a God of love, no rather lead ,me to the. Inge Jesus had ter humanity , atxl there I see what love God has. Let me hear Him say “Go thy way and sin no. more.’ then I understand His love. Let' me hear Him say 'He that is without siu let him cast the first stone.' then I un derstand His love. Thinking about Him cleayly uud -soberly causes ope to believe in Him more. And when I say believe in H ! tu Ido not mean belief about Him. ' There is a difference in belief in and belief about. "When I came home from divinity school, a lawyer cumc td me and asked me if I came back believing in the Bible. I replied. I surely «to*t*flevc the Bible , more than ever. He then asked if l, believed it from lid to IM. phmiuation ! and *U. I said no, for it has gone through numerous, translations and re- i TUP nAhmn __ v THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBuNB Rather it must . be used for spiritual [I guidance in nobler living. This same|j man told me that J was going to tbe dov-U U. A lew wee** before th*s he had fixed ij up a note which was to have forced at] man to pay to hi* wife and five children j] a yearly support find instead of fixing kJJ so that he wauhj/havc to pay the amount H be arranged the note so that the fellow H could get out without ilaying anything. Ig Money bought Hu off. and. now the wifelS and children at*' having to make thewfl own way in the world the best way they 11 i possibly can. Did he believe the funda-|| mental teaching* of the Bible? If so he 1 failed to l»Jt it' Into deeds. ; “Therefore we come to see that think- 1 ing gives a basis for belief and that he- 1 lief that is actuated by clear thinking | causes man tp go into life doing such | deeds ns will build the kingdom of God i and not the kingdom of deception and Bin. 1 The more we hoMoti.v think the more we j have to believe and the more be ism- I seieutiously believe the greater will be I the deeds. By thinking clearly and be- I lieving positively .this church can be i together and do the- task that is upon us j to do in building the kingdom of God.” I Several x)>eeial, numbers were rendered j by the choir.

There is no cost I to a community for this service, no adver- 5 tising and no propaganda. , , j Mr. Southard, Who is a business man.; 1 not a doctor nor an eye specialist. pre»: aented the subject from the -viewpoint of’ the necessity of normal sight iu order to: get an education, as at least forty per; cent, of knowledge is gotten through thfi eyes, and of having normal leyesight to: see. when the child goes to work. The subject was presented with the aid of lunteru slides. On Saturday evening Mr. Southard! showed a moving picture to a packed au-j ' iltence in the Y\ .M.

With the slide he howed how wrong lighting of factories, Store*, business buildings, schools and homes lead to eye strain and wear out the neSvous system by "glare.” He urged parents and business men to co-operate with tec. school authorities in drilling children Rtto the habit of cariHg for eyesight. t Today's lectures were under the direc tion of A.
