Prefacing his talk on the Sunday
school lesson to his Bible class in
the Strand theater Sunday morning.
Judge John C. Kay took occasion
to pay a tribute to the late Dr. J. V.
Reed, who had died the night he-
tero.
“There, died laat night.” said
Judge Kay, “an old neighbor of
— mine; a man whose life had been
[ filled with good deeds, and years
f and honor, gone to his reward. It
to a great thing to live a useful
life. It is a great thing to serve
men as he did. And when you
think about his life, you must re-
member thet he was not a boarder
here. He took hold and lifted and
helped."
Referring to the musicians who
" had just played for the class, no
said: “It always makes me a little
i envious when I Me a musician.
■ Musto to probably something that
A the gods let drop down and leak out
from a brighter paradise than this.
J It may be that it does not belong
1 here, that we do not know much
■ about it.” -
I Judge Kay's declaration that he
I would like to discuss the literature
I going into the homes of the people.
■ that he would like to discuss the
I different magazines that are print-
■ ed in this country—what they mean
1 and what they stand for-was
■ greeted with applause.
[ Taking up the discussion of the
■ lesson he said:
1 "Now, the lesson this morning is
■ about the Savior healing the son of
I a nobleman. The Savior did not
i have any blocs and clubs. He was
Zdor the poor.He was for the rich,
tNot because they were poor or rich.
For educated, or ignorant, but be-
I cause they,were men. That was
■ the whole of his teaching.' And
1 where He came to a man He said. 1
■ thin'S ‘This man may be rich, he
I may be poor, he may be educated.
I he may. be ignorant, he may be
■ good, he may be vicious, but here is
I a human soul, and that is the way
—for you to think about your neigh-
■ bor, your friend and the stranger.
True Nobility.
I ‘So, this nobleman came to him.
■ We cannot have such noblemen in
■ this country, because the constitu-
I tion of the United States has pro-
1 vided that no patent of nobility
I shall ever be granted by this gov-
1 ernment. Bat we can have them.
I Every man who is clean, every man
I who is charitable, every, man whose:
Alife is filled with' good deeds. is a
nobleman, because that is all that It
fever took to make one. So this man
came to the Master and he said that

■ your digestion Is good, when your
I finances are good, when the air
I breathes right, you may become in-
I different about religion, and about
I finer things. But when the wife,
— the baby, seems beyond human help
I and beyond the dripping of human
I tears, then it is that we cease to
I rely upon our own strength. And

broad-shouldered fellows. He did
not stop to say: What was the re-

J ratherf He' did not stop to ask
1 him whether he had been paying
■ tithes, or any of these things, but
I out of the great majesty and love
1 of-His heart He said: ‘Go home;

"Now, that is a religion that man

kind of a man or the kind of a
woman that God ought to entrust
children to ?

years ago. That was one of the
Savior's first miracles. Are you in-
terested in that? Not only as
proof of His divinity, and as proof
of His power. The Christ that you
. would know-the Christ that I
would have you know. Is that Christ
that can heal your boy today. Not,
perhaps, the fainting Christ who
climbed with Hie wears load up to
the heights of Calvary, but that
— Christ who site at the right hand
of the Father, and is able to forgive
sin, and heal your boy, and mine;
The question - of Questions.
“It is no wonder that John, In his
great vision on the Isle of Patmos,
writing as never man has been able
to write since, said: I am he that
was dead and Is alive forevermore.
Unless Christ means that, he means
nothing to you. So, let us think
about Him, not as the historic Christ,
although we must think about that
also, but what does He mean in
your life, and in my life today-
even now? Do you live, do I live,
as if there were a living Christ to-
day? Now, that in the question of
all questions. Am I, are you, walk-
IM down the read of life, and
taking each and every step as if the
eye of the Master was upon yont
That to the question of all the
questions. Does He heal men to-
day? I think we see it all about
us.
“The Savior sought for, struggled:
for. fought for, died for, the emo.
tional, spiritual side of man. Now,
I think that is worth thinking
“I am afraid today that we grow
like the German universities, no
system of education, merely trying
to exalt pure intellect; merely to
find the depths and heights of in-
tellect, to come at last to lie boun-
dary. Not so with the old schools.
We have got to have schools in this
country: we have got to have par-
ents in this country, we have got
to have homes in this country, that
teach, the youth of our land that
the finest cultivation Is the culti-
vation of the spirit. ------—-----—
“A man goes out here and talks
about justice. He says: ‘I want
justice. I want to give my neigh-
bor justice.' It is cnly the spiritual
side of man. It is only his emo-
tional aide. It is only the heart
side of man that can ever teach
him the difference between right
and wrong. A man might under-
stand all of astronomy, and all of
psychology, land he would not
know much when he did understand
that last). Psychology is Just like
sticking your finger in the mill
pond, and pulling It out and look-
ing, at the hole. Now, if there is
anybody feels like he is offended
at that statement, we will have
what the old-timers call a Jint de-
bate” here sometime, and I will show
you. The reason I say. that le be-
cause no two psychologists haye
ever agreed. But, what I am say-
ing to you today is that it is the
spiritual side of our children that
must be saved. That it is the emo-
tional side, it la the heart side, that
must be cared for, it our civilisation
itself is to be saved. Think about
that. You do not have to be rich,
or poor, or strong, or weak, or
famous, or unknown, to be saved.
Because .He said that God is no re-
specter of persons. It is no use to
come to heaven’s gate and say: ‘I
was a great man down in Texas.’ It
will boot you nothing to come to
Heaven’s gate and say: 'I was
mighty poor and had a hard time
down there in Texas,” These things
are neither here nor there. The
thing that I think will be asked
you. 'Did you have, In Texas, a
consecrated heart, and did you live
a consecrated life?
