living, as well as to convert the bar-
barian and the Hottentot, and we
should devote our energy and talent
to the solution of problems of our
own locality, rather than consume
our energies in fighting vice and ig-
norance beyond our borders. It is as
important that we discuss from the
pulpit, the building of macadam
highways from the church to our
homes, as that we preach of the gold-
en streets of the New Jerusalem. It
is as much a part of the duty of
the pastor to exhort us to own a
home while on earth as to in-
spire us to build a mansion in the
skies and that we should construct
Christian character in our own com-
munity, rather than that we fight
foreign sins in other lands. We want
a religion we can farm by as well
as die by; We want sermons from
the fields, songs from the birds and
prayers from the stars that are with-
in the horizon of our daily lives.

of rural communities and we want

profitable pleasures and instructive ;
amitsoments. Too often we find the
gau’cs of our young people a search
for a suggestion in immorality and
a & ?ppiiig-stone'to sin. The pastor
should supervise tire growing lives of
young people, approve their amuse-
ments, create expressions of jov and
pleasure that make of Christian
character and bless their lives with
Christian modesty.
Tire farm is the nnrsery of civ-
ilization, and the parsonage of all
religious denominations. Too long
has tjhe farm furnished the cities
with theig great preachers, until to-
day the rural church is the gangway
to city pulpits. The current should
be reversed. The power of the pul-
pit is most needed in the country
where the fundamental forces of hu-
man life originate. The farm is the
power-house of all .progress and the
birthplace of all that is noble. The
Garden of Eden was in the country
and the man who would get close
to God must first get close to nature. I $
