THE ALLIANCE HERALD, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1921.
THE PARSON'S CORNER
By Rev. B. J. Minrt. Pastor of
the First Baptist Church, Alliance
FINDING FAULT.
In Luke 9:54 we read that John the
disciple came to Jesus one day and
complained that the disciples of John
the Baptist were lining the same work
that Christ and his di.sciples were
doing, but they were not following the
methods that Christ and his followers
did. This fault finder was so cnthu
sdast'c for "the cause" that he becamo
a volunteer defender of "the faith," to
the extent of being willing to call
down fire upon the men vho did the
some kind of work he was doing. He
asked Christ for the privilege of call
ing down fire.
John, in this case, represents a large
class of men who cannot see a thing
done in a different way from what they
do it, without finding fault. They lay
more stress on methods than upon re
sults. We live in a day of results; in
a day when men are expecting us to
"put it across" and have little tlmo to
quibble over methods.
"
Now, why did John find fault with
the disciples of the Baptist, who, ac
cording to John's words, were doing
good, but who did it in a different way
from Christ? It was not that John
the Baptist was not doing good, or not
preaching the Gospel, but that he did
it in a different way. Now this critic's
tribe has not all died out, yet perhaps
it would be a blessing if they had. We
have them with us. Let a man get
away from the old beaten path, wheth
er it be religious, or in other work,
and a storm of protest arises from
every quarter where the followers of
John exist.
The cold fact is that every man who
has made his mark in this wtorld lias,
as a rule, been a man who has depart
ed from some old fogy, mossback, laid
out road that has brought men no
where. Young'man, you who are just
beginninj? in life, may I point out to
you a rule of life that has brought
numberless blessings to the writer, and
that has "put it across" in many
ways ?
Listen, instead of whining about
the success of your competitor, find out
his weak points, and capitalize them,
not by being personal, but by filling in
the gap he leaves open. Say little
about it, but get busy and work as
hard as you can to supply the neel
that by his neglect is created, and you
will come out ahead of him every time.
This has brought thousands of men to
the top rung of the ladder. In the
ministry this rule has never failed.
This is what has brought Dr.
Matthews, pastor of the First Presbv?
terian church of Seattle, who i3
preaching to more people than any
other man in that denomination, and
whose chufch is one of the out.stinding
churches in the country. The tame is
true of Dr. Russel Conwell, who
preaches to nearly ten thousand people
every Sunday.
Billy Sunday became a world re
nowned man. How? Bycapitalizing
the failures of the preachers over the
country. D. L. Moody became great
by the same rule. God will invariably
bless the man who will use the good
points of his competitor, and mekc the
competitor's mistakes or, failures, in-

stead of objects of criticism stepping
stones to higher attainments.
I There are faultfinders who are so
busy finding fault with those who
u, vw vii li wici ui ii nine M fiv
complish anything. We found uch
men while we were on vhe road nftcr
orders. One man comes to my r:ind

who did got the orders. It ! veil to
Fludy the methods of successful men.
In fect, we would advise a careful
study of their best points, and even the
failures, not to find fault, but to
avoid the same mistakes.
Why is it that an outside evrmtrolist
will stir up such an inteiest in a
church that before his coming was
dead? Because the wise evangelist
gets a lineup of the failures of the
pastor, and then capitaliies these
faults, which usually makes a hit with
the folks. Think this over ami see f it
is not so. We are writing from exper
ience in that work.
So dear reader, have you a competi
tor? Don't think that you iil ttop
his progress by finding fault, and talk
ing to others about his methods, but
study his failures, and take advantage
of them by replacing them by your
strongest points, and success is yours.
Usually the "crabbers" are folks who
would have success, but it inu ;t come
without effort on their part. To be
plain, success comes to him who is
willing to pay the price. Power comes
to nil' who wish it enough to do the
necessary things to attain it. In the
next issue we shall develop this more
fully, under the topic of "The Trice
of Tower.'
Dear reader, may we wirb you a
Happy New Year? You have Been
patient in going through these ser
mons, and we appreciate the many
good things you have said about them.
Oh yes, I made you angry sometimos
and it did you good, didn't it? The
coming year I shall try to do even
better and to make this comer more
interesting than ever.
TOTALLY OBSCURED.
A certain callow Chicago swain had
an amazingly large mouth which he
contorted into an all-pervading smile
when he wished to make a good im
pression. His sweetie had persuaded
him to "ask father" and the youth
was determined to show himself to
good advantage.
"Mister Jones," he began, stretch
ing his principal feature to the utmost
of geniality. "I have come to ask
for the hand of your daughter. I "
"Just a moment, young man," inter
rupted the old gentleman mildy,
"would you mind closing your mouth
for a moment till I see who you are."

they are resolutions.

Custom of Taking
the Grist to Mill
, Is Being Rcvicd
ScottsblufT Star-Herald: It Is not so
many years ago, as time is reckoned,
that it was the rule to bundle a lad
on the hurricane deck of an old horse,
nlonir with a nck of wheat nml vrn.l
him to mill. He returned with flour
enough for the family bread for a
J couple of weeks to come. It was all
, very simple,, and worked splendidly,
; despite the old saw, "don't send a
: boy to mill."
In some sections of the country this
old custom is being renewed, the mil
lers taking their toll as of old and in
return sending the "boy" home with
an excellent brand of flour. The
farmer is satisfied, and so is the mil
ler, ro everybody seems united, save
perhaps tKe railroads.
In last week's issue of the Hay
Springs News is an item which calls
attention to the fact that many of
the farmers in that region are taking
their wheat to a mill at 1'ine Creek.
One of the Hay Springs citizens
stated that he had 500 pounds of fine
flour as the result of his trip to mill,
mil also averred that while he was
there five truck loads of wheat arrived
from Alliance, and that trade was
commencing to pour in from the Chad
ron neighborhood.
Antioch Man Catches
Eighty-Three Coyotes
Since Last November
Earl Ferguson, hunter and trapper
living at Antioch, has caught eighty
three coyotes since the first cold
weather last November. Mr. Ferguson
so far this winter hasn't done any trap
ing, but has caught all the coyotes with
three half Stag, half Russian-wolf
hounds that he raised himself. He says
they are the best hounds in the coun
try, and judging from their showing,
he's probably right.
Mr. Ferguson hasn't yet sold any
of the pelts, but expects to ship them
about the middle of Janurary, when
the market will probably be higher.
He has been offered five dollars each
for them, but expects to get from
f-even to ten dollars when he sells. By
sending the scalps to the county sent
at Rushville, he would receive three
dollars apiece bounty, but cutting the
scalps off would probably reduce the
value of the hides more than the
the, bounty would amount to.
If this country is to economize with
becoming thoroughness, the cows
should be taught to eat old straw hats.
Some of them have to marry in
haste now td get through with' the
ceremony before divorce proceedings
startt ,
A divorce has been granted a wife
whose husband compelled her to live
in a stable. Right there probably is
where domestic felicity stalls.
