Giving Thanks For the War. Very evidently the majority of nian l.ind have an insutliiieii'-y of knowl--.:ire of God. of the Iiible. and of the I ovine I'lan therein set forth, to thank God f .r the .resent state of war. Hut to the Ghurui:, whose eyes of nnder ta ndiim have been opened and who ;ire able to see the lengths and the luead hs. the hi IzhU and the depths, of God s I.ove in the Message of the Iiible. St Paul writes: "In everything iziw thanks:" Kipe ( 'hrisi ia ns have learietl to rive thanks to God for the adversities of Ido in their own experieioes. convinc ed ih.it under God's supervision the dive: of 'a initios may lie overruled foi jiort r i Hi people and for ylory t His name. !iut only the advanced, the 1 f I at fi-i'.fd.

Therefore all his biidren share by heredity his Iin P'-rfe tioiis and are lii;ewise hnperfe'-t - sinie'rs. ns St. I'aul explains.

Hut "the scret of the Ird is with them that far Ilim. :ind He will show them His Covenant." This Mystery is that God has pur posed that the blessing of the world should be accomplished hy our Savior !n association with a select class jrath red out of the world and especially prepared in the School of Christ dur ,, the Go-pel .;re. iMirins the cen ti;:ie reju:red for the tindinc of this saintly class for whom the Lord has been searching with the magnet of Truth, various false theories have sprung up and found acceptance in the world. One of these Is that God does not love the world and has never pur posed its salvation: hut that, on the contrary. He has predestinated all ex cept the saints to suffer eternal tor ture. because Ue wished to have it so Another of these false theories is that whilst G'd wished to save the world. He is unable to do so. because handieap;ed by human self-will and by Satan's aggressiveness. This tiie ory declares that God loves the world, ineltnling the heathen millions; that He longs to have the Gospel taken to them, but cannot do so except through human agency; and that He is baffled and disappointed lecause those who profess to be His people fail to raise sufficient funds. To rational minds these theories are no longer satisfactory; hence many are turned to infidelity. Hut leaving these errors of the Dart Ages and going back to -he Scriptures, we tind their teachings consistent: namely, that as soon as the Mystery of God, the Church. Is finished, the IMvine blessing u;il piO'-eed through The i'hrist Jesus the Head, and the Church the Ih.dy to tlie world. As it is written. "In thy Seed shall ail the families of the earth be blessed." The Mxstery of !Gud is that the spiritual Seed of A bra ham is not the Lord Jesiis only, but ulso His members -the Ci, us-.wr-G a la thing 3 :S. Ii'..

Tlie merit of Christ will then be applied on behalf of the billions who have gone down into the prison house of ileal L- Shod. Hades, the grave. The Chirch will constitute the First Lesurrcrtiom Ah t-haring in it will attain life on the spirit plane. Later, durins: the Mil lennium, the world will return from the tomb, "every man in his own or der." The pro ess of i esurrert h n will continue with them, in order tit:: t the will ins arid obedient may rise gradual ly tow M'ds et fei t ion on tlie human plane and t'.na.ly attain it. Meat. time the earth will be rejuvenated and be come the promised 1'aradise restored. "Cive Thanks. For He Is Good." Iokill' down into the future, the Psa!tiiist exelaims. in view if the Kin'd 'ui blessings remised the wo; !1 ' iriv e thanks unto the Lord: for lie is gi od I for His uerey endureth for ever!"

Hut these very oji porumities the Lord's conse.-tatt d ones jmssess. As it is written. "Hiessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear." Not onl so. but t the extent that any sees and hears of the gr:e e of God he has responsibility. To possess the know.edtie of God and to disdain it is to reeei'.e the gra -e if God in vain. God s people not only give thanks for future h!esii:i:s te eied lew l y faith, but add.tlotially t le-y appnwiate bless i:;i:s -ranted them in the present li'V. and ive thanks for these.

These are the experiences f those rip- christians called upon by the Apostle to give thanks unto Got! in every matter and to know that this is the will of (bid in respect to nil who are members of the I'.ody of Christ. Thanks Through Tears. Let us not overlook the fact that our text indicates that we are to give thanks for our sorrows, our trials, our disappointments, as well as for our joys and our pleasures; f- the word everything includes all tilings. Nr is this the only Scripture to this effect. The Apostle elsewhere Urges the mem hers of Christ to reioice in tribulation -nt because tribulation is a joy-pro dueer. but because tribulation works out additional patience, and patience brings additional experience, which in turn brings larger hope, until we are not ashamed of our tribulations, be cause thereby the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts. Until. M; S:.".ri. The basis of all rejoicing as respects both the future and the present is faith: First, that there is a God: sec ond, that He has a noble character; third, that His Wisdom. Justice. Love and Power are perfect and are thor oughly coordinated; fourth, that all those attributes are enlisted in the sal vation of the world: fifth, that this sal vath'ti began to be worked out by our Lord at His First Advent; sixth that it is still working out in the selection of His Church; seventh, that shortly it will begin to take practical shape in the establishment of Christ's Mi! lennial Kingdom; eighth, that through this Kingdom a blessing shall exteml to c very creature of our race. Then let every man to the extent of his enlightenment appreciate and con fess the Almighty God and give thanks unto His name; for He is good, nun His mercy endureth forever. Let those who have tasted of His grace go on. that they may grow in grace, in knowi edge, m faith and in character-like ness to our God Let His saints, w ho are addressed in our text, more and nmre appreciate their wonderful priv ilege, their high calling of God in Christ Jesus to tie heirs of God and joint-heirs with Jesus Christ our Lord. 1 Aivo Kotos John Murtey hal l.u.siness on! ii Tuesday in Lir.- Geo! ire Si. lies o f M unlock was town Saturday.

AND TWO YOUNG LADIES NARROWLY ESCAPE Miss Elenor Cole and Miss Rosa Clint had an experience with a run - away team Sr-turday night that might have been more serious than it was. The girls were returning from town to the Walter Cole farm, which is the former of the girl'.- home and is where the latter stays while she teaches school at Sunny Hill. As they were nearly the bridge just beyond the James McNamee home they met an automobile which frightened the team. breaking loo.-e from control they wheeled direc.lv about, throwing- the girls out, and a few seconds later dashing the buggy against a tele phone pole, demolishing it. After get ting free from the buggy, the horse showed their speed through the town and continued on to the Martin Rich home south of town. The gir!.- were badiv no t seriously injured but shaken up and considerably frighten ed. Weeping Water Republican. E. J. CONNOR, OF ELMWOOD. SUED FOR 85,250 DAMAGES From Saturdays Dally. It is surely hard to tell when two moving vehicles collide who is respon sible for the accident. Suit has been filed against E. T. Comer, of this place, by a man from Lincoln, alleg ing that defendant was responsible for an accident in which his motor cycle was sma.-.hed up and in which he claims he was injured. Mr. Comer is a careful driver and feels that he was in no way responsible for the ac cident. The following is from the Stale Journal: Edward M. Havens has petitioned the district court to enter judgment in his favor and against Eugene T. Comer in the sum of Js.i.2o0, the claim growing out of a mixup between plaintiff's motorcycle and defendant's automobile at the corner of Eleventh end M streets on August 17, last. Ha vens declares that it was all the fault cf Comer, who was at the time violat ing the road laws. It is alleged by the plaintiff that he was going south on the west side of Eleventh street, driving at a very moderate rate of speed and keeping a lookout for other vehicles. Comer was also going south, but was on the east side of the street and was going at an unlawful rate of speed. At the inter sev .ion of Eleventh and M streets Comer turned west on the wrong side of the street, failing to indicate that he was going to turn and sounding no alarm.

SPLENDID ROADS IN THE VICINITY OF MURRAY, A CREDIT TO THE OVERSEER The roads in the vicinity of Murray are among the best in this section of the county, and a great deal of the credti for the excellent manner in which the roads have been maintained may be ascribed to the efforts of Ben Beckman, the road overseer, who re tires this year after nineteen years of service to the people of West Rock Bluff. Mr. Beckman has just finished up cutting down the high hanks along the roadway to the Missouri Pacific right-of-way into Murray and has thereby added greatly to the value of the road in every way and makes it much safer for travel. There are few road supervisors whose going ha-! caused as much regret, and his splen did conduct of the office will be a good example to his successor. John M.
