K.' iff' Tnliy First , IrHli.vtrI w Cnrch. fIiTrs Sermon on "Why Foreign Missions?:., . Strong Why Forertgn Misxioun? Was the subject of Rev. Dr. Tully's sermon at the First Pres byterian church Sunday morning. The goal of history is the re demption) of the' race. The Gos pel of God is the power: the Church of Christ - is the Instru ment; the missionary enterprise is the method. We are for foreign missions for a .multitude of reas ons: First, because only five objec tions have ever been urged against them. Men say we need the money at home, but only those who give abroad give also at home. Men say that we need the workers at home, but only those who send workers abroad inspire workers at home. Men say that the " missionaries mate few con verts, but less than half the male population of. the United States ever darken a church door. Men say that the missionaries may make mistakes, but what other class of people make no mistakes? Men-say that other-peoples have their own religions,- but', ft they are not good enough for us, they are not good enough for them. Second, because of these funda mental factors: The soul's experi ence In Christ- In, proportion . as a man is soundly converted ' he wants to see Others .converted. Also,, just as he '"know the needs of the world its ignorance, pov erty and superstition he lOngs to bring to men the power of Christ to set them free. Then, there xis the command of Christ, "Go!" No Christian can disregard that command without being guilty of the heresy of disobedience, which is worse than the heresy of opin ion. Third, Christ can do for other races what he has done for ours. The East is awakening; provincial ism is past; the age of cosmopoli tanism is here. Race relations must be Christianized. The field is the world; the Church must face its whole task". Finally. "Our God is able." He is "able: to subdue all things unto him-j self," "able to save to the utter most,'" "able to do exceedingly abundant above all that we ask or thin.' Iet us take Him at His woVd.'T Let us march forth "In the strength of God. with the banner of Christ unfurled. God had one Son, and made Him a missionary; we are to be like Him.

AlHItt ou have. perhaps, wondered how some store can afford to spend such enor mous sums for advertising.. That is easy to fathom; Their competitor, who doesn't advertise and whose business they take,; pays for their, advertising. Say the 'Jones family is a customer: of your which they intend to spend with you. They read the advertising of your . competitor and are induced to spend their $60 with him instead of it with you. The store makes 20 per cent, or $12, on the sale. They deduct; we? will say, the $ 1 1 advertising cost and have $1 I profit left.
