A GOOD NEWS ITEM.
Many tales have been told in news
paper offices to illustrate the essen
tial qualifications of a good news item.
Each city editor supposedly has his
favorite assortment to impress the
young reporter, at least tradition has
io equipped him, says the Indianapolis
Star. Probably there are hundreds of
efficient city editors who only have
lectured the cub in rather picturesque
language when that hapless youth was
found wanting in the pinch.' One of
these definitions of a true news story,
as drawn by a New York editor, was
as follows: "If a baby falls out of a
ten-story building and is killed, there's
no news in that. But if a baby falls
that distance and lands unhurt in a
baby carriage, that is a real story."
,lf the originator of the formula is still
alive, he will enjoy publishing an ac
tual happening similar to the hypo
thetical case he had devised. A New
York younster has proved that pos
session of a rabbit's foot isn't essential
to good luck by tumbling six stories
from the roof of an apartment house
and landing only slightly bruised in
a baby carriage. Not long ago he
dropped from a fourth story window
and landed on a clothesline, which
broke the fall and prevented serious
'injury. After surviving two such
thrilling exploits he should exercise
the greatest caution, for he may be
doomed to slip on the wet pavement
and break his neck.
Two Scotch soldiers who steadied
the ment a critical moment by play
ing mouth organs have been given
medals, but not because they didn't
play bagpipes.
The great need of the world of the
present is just a little peace and quiet.
"What is an education?" asks a con
tributor. To know the answer would
, be an education.
The man who works and earns a
million dollars will be a blamed sight
longer at it than the fool who in
herit it and starts to blow.
THE PARSONS CORNEP
By Rev. B. J. Minort. Paster of
the First Baptist Church, Alliance
The Unwelcome Christ! The Solu
tion of the World's Problems.'
Text: "There una nn
in the inn." (Luke 2:7)
No one doubts that the world has
problems. The world has been trying
to solve problems that have already
been solved hundreds of years ago.
Problems are of two classes material
and spiritual. The great problems are
' heart problems. Men are put in this
world to grow in soul, develop in char
acter, to glorify God and enjoy Him
and His people forever.
Howev ron fns'st on -o'ving
these problems by leaving out the one
icmeuy pruvjuea Dy uoti, and without
which they cannot be solved. Men
have room for everything under the
sky but the One remedy that can heal
' and solve them. The churches over
the land are more and more coming
to see that they must adapt their
methods of applying this Remedy to
the world's ills to the time in which
thev live. Tnn nffnn uo ol, t
, the twentieth century problems in the
iciuurjr mruiods, ana me result
is that it has taken a thousand years
to accomplish what could have been
done in a tithe of the time.
There is no more room for Christ in
the inn today than there was nine
teen centuries ago. The church .must
change its methods in seeking an en
trance for Christ into the various
inns that go tp. make up the life of
the twentieth century.
But some will say, "Are we not liv
ing in a. Christian country?" No,
brother, we are not,' as you can see
from an unbiased study of the twen
tieth century activities. It is a well
known fact that the doctors who wait
ed upon George Washington could
have prolonged his life had thev used
right methods. They bled him to
death. They withdrew b'ood when he
was in need of more b'ood. In tha
day they bled men. Today we in
fuse into their veins more blood. Once
the medical men killed men' in order
to make them well. Today they save
them in order to cure them.
Until men recognize that the prin
ciples of the Babe of Bethlehem must
be injected into the problems of the
lnv. we w;U be far from solving the
problems that perplex us. We must
inject His teaching into all the phases
of modern life. Hitherto we have
thought that the religion of Christ
must be kept out, and like the doc
tors of a tew generations ago, we
sought to withdraw religion from all
phases of life. Today we are grad
ually coming to see that we must in-i'vt-
rpjr'on 'nto the problems in or
der to solve them. Christ settles the
world's problems by
First By saving the world from
sin and moral corruption. Sin is the
source of all the world problems. Sin
was at the bottom of the world war.
Sin ha been at the bottom of all the
wars cf history. Sickness, misery, di
vorces all other social evils: can be
'raced to the one word Sin. In Titus
we read that "He gave himself for
w ib"t he miht redeem us from all
iniquity (problems) and purify unto
'umeli a peculiar people (individuals)
zealous of good works." Looking to
the cross of Christ the poor, trembling
sinner can say, "For me, for me, He
died on Calvary." All one has to do
is to go to Christ in penitence and
receive forgiveness of sin, and be giv
en a clean bill of health and power
(not hitherto his own) to overcome all
temptations of life.
A young man came to the parson
age one day saying that he "wanted
salvation." He was pointed to Him
whose birth we are celebrating, and
he found what he Fought His great
soul problems were settled the mo
ment ne accepted Christ
Again, Christ settles the world's
problems by giving it a perfect sys
tem of religion. We make no claim
that Christianity is the only religion;
we do claim that it is the only re
ligion that has stood the test of the
cen"rie-!. It hs' proved its power
to develop a nation from barbarism

The di (Terence between England and

gan religion and the relegion of
Christ. The difference between Spain
and this country is the difference be
tween a country where evpry man has
been given the privilege of worshiping
God aciording to the dictates of his
conscience, and the country that has
not own allowed to exercise freedom
of worship. The difference between
j this country and Italy is the difference
' between a country where the open

that can solve man's soul problems,
Christianity injected into the indus
trial and commercial life would in a
short while solve that riddle f Capital-and
Labor.
. In the third place, the Unwelcome
Christ solves the world's problem by
eiving it the true conception of life.
Before Christ was born, the only con
ception of life, both as to individuals
and nations was that of every man
for himself. Since He came into this
world, sen-ice has gradually climbed
into most departments of human ac
tivities. "I came that ye might have
life, that ye might have it more abun
dantly," that i. not simply exist, but
that men might have the privilege of
enjoying this ld world, with its many
good things. More abundantly means
"to overflowing." Under this system
the wage earners could have a reason
able wage, with reasonable provision
for old age. ' Under this system the
capitalist would receive a reasonable
return upon capital invested, and ev
erybody would be happy. But there
Is no room for Christ in the industrial
and commercial inns of today, any
more than there was in the inn of
Bethlehem.

v"ur u. mere was more room lor
Christ in the inns of today. Christ
solves the worlds problems by giving
to it the One Guide Book, the Bible.
The Bible contains sufficient informa
tion, if followed, to folve all modern
problems. Rodger Babson, the finan
cier, say3 that the greatest need of
Wall street i3 to get back to the Bi
ble; that the great unemployment and
other vital problems could be avoided
and solved by simply Applying to them
the principles or the Sermon on the
Mount. The Bible helps us In our
sorrows, sanctifies our poverty, our
Strupeles. our isolation. It nuts
heart into us when other things have!
ianci. it warns It pleads, it strength
ens, it lights and guides us. It is the
only safe guide book for life, a jour
ney. It is adapted to all of man's
neeiLs as a moral and religious being.
In closing might I ask the reader:
Will you not make more room lor
Christ in the inn of your personal
life? After all, the great problem
that affect the great collective bodies
that we call governments, are but the
pr!siori ot the personal problems.
If all the personal problems were
solved, there would be no collective or
public problems. Listen to His ple;i,
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock,
if any man will open the door 1 will
come in."
