to tho nHslstnnce of our denr brethren
mid aluters In Christ, of nil denomina
tions, nud to call upon them to Join
with us In u determined stand for
righteousness, for Truth, for God nnd
for his Word.
Wo must hIiow them that Iguornntly

by misrepresentation of his character
nnd misrepresentations or the rent

resenting Ids Word nud Ida Character
Wo hnvo driven away from God and
the Hlblo some of the most Intelligent
of our follows, by reason of the con
tradictory nousenso of our creeds.
The Apostle urges, "Study to ahow
thyself approved unto God." Wo nro
not (o suppose, therefore1, thai Hie
highest of nil science, that which per
tain to the Dlvlno purKse nud the
Ulvlno plnn, can bo acquired without
itudy. Wo aro not In thla claiming
that study nlouo would bring the de
sired reaulta of proper knowledge, Wo
heartily agree In the Scriptural prop
osition thnt "tho world by wisdom
knows not God." Wo nre not there
fore to study nlong tho line of world
ly wisdom, but along the lines of "that
wisdom that cometb from above"
nlong Hid Hues of tho Inspired Scrip
tures. Wo must atudyl Whoever will
not study will not know. "The secret
or tho Lord la with them that rever
ence Him." And rovorcnclng hltn
means the giving of our best thoughts
nnd tnleuui to tho study of his Word,
that wo may "know tho things freely
given to us of God" (I Corinthians 11,
12).
Wo should note further na Hlblo stu
dents that wo must not atudy to bo a im
proved of men, but to hove tho Divine
npprovnl. This will bring to us. na It
did to tho Master nnd his apostles, the
disapprobation of tho worldly-wlso and
uomlnnlly religious. It was tho Chief
Priests nnd Scribes nnd Pharisees, nnd
not the common people of the Jewn, nor
tho Itomnn soldiers, who were guilty
of the crucifixion of our Lord. And
wo must expect similar conditions, be
cnise, na the Apostle says, "As ho waa
ao are wo Iu thla world." The class
who called the Master Heclzchub la the
sniuo clnaa which will oppose his foot
step followers.
God pennltn nil this with wlso and
loving forelntentlon. Nothing connect
ed with tho opposing forces Is In any
sense of the word Interfering with his
great Program. Ho set apart with Dl
vlno wisdom thla Gospel Ago of nearly
nineteen centuries for tho sole purpose
of selecting from tho world "the
Church of tho firstborns" the nntityp
Icnl Prlesta nud Levltea. The restric
tion or his message, the darkening of
counsel, tho clashing of creeds, the ojh
posltlon of tho world, tho flesh nnd tho
Devil, nro nil wisely permitted with
tho forelntentlon on God's part that
thus all through the Age the wny of
tho cross In the footsteps or Jesus
should bo n "nnrrow wny," so thnt
comparatively row finding" It would
care to wnlk In It.
It la those few. that "llttlo Dock"
realoua ror God. ror his Word, for
righteousness. Hint he Is now marking
out na the prospective jolnt-hclra with
Jesus In his glorious Kingdom, which
Is K- bless the world with full opportu
nities for earthly salvation restitu
tion." The trials of the faith, the pa
tience, the love, the devotion or this
"little flock" nre nil designed nud not
accidental. Satin and his hosts may
think to thwart the Divine Plan and
may mislead nnd use humnnlty us their
tools, but It shall yet be seen that nil
or the Divine purposes shall be ac
complished. The Word that has gone
forth out of Jehovah's mouth shall
prosper In the thing whereto he
sent It.
St. Paul declnrod of enrthly Israel,
that they enjoyed "much advantage
every way, becuuso to them were com
mitted the oracles of God." So now.
dear friends. It seems to me that you
and I and all sincere Christians the
world around enjoy much advantage
every way. Looking to the past we
find grent excuse for our dear forefa
thers who, with sincerity of heart, ho
misunderstood tho Dlvlno Word nnd
so misinterpreted the spirit or the
Muster thnt they burned one another
nt the stake. We should uot think so
harshly or them ror this as though
they lived today under the greater nd
vantages which wo possess. We
should sympathize with them. We
should consider them ns blinded by
the grent Adversary ns wits Saul of
Tnrsus, when he. na n member of tho
Snnlicdrlii, authorized the stoning of
St. Stephen. Wo should think or them
sympathetically na St. Peter spoke of
the Jews who crucified the I.ord. lie
said, "I wot, brethren, that In Igno
rance yo did It. na did nlso your ml
era." So nlso we should kindly, lov
ingly enst n tunntle or benevolence
over similar conduct on the part or
John Ciilrln and others or our rorefn
thera. Hut ns we would not go to the
Jewish rulers, unr to Saul of Tarsim
for rtUolou Instruction, neither should
we go to Brother Calvin or others of
our forefnthers who were blinded, ns
he was, respecting tho true chnrnctor
of God nud tho true Spirit of tils
Word.
Only within the past century have
tho masses of God'a people been nble
even to rend the Hlblo. ir they had pes,
fessod It. And only within tho aitme
time have they had tho Illble to read
Our great hindrance has been thnt
with Hlblcs In our hands nnd with
ability to use them, wo looked ror In
struction to our woll-meunlng fathers
Instead of going to God'a Word Itself
Now by God's grace the eyes of out
understanding nre opened. The won
ilorful Hlbles or our dny- with their
marginal references, their concord
anens, etc., nnd other assistances tu
Hlblo study nro bringing us Iu touch
with the whole messugo or God's
Word. Now one passage or Scripture
throws light upon another mid thus
with Increiislug brightness the Word

A B C's of Irrigation
QUESTION
"What is irrigation? v , "V"
ANSWER
Irrigation is the practice of wetting the soil by means of pump
ing water or by gravity flow from mountain streams by means
of a dam and ditches.
question
Is irrigation better than rainfall, and why?.
ANSWER
Yes. It beats rainfall because the farmer can apply the water
just as he needs it. He knows exactly what he can do. The ele
ment of chance is eliminated. Crop failure is reduced to a min
imum. QUESTION
What is the best system of irrigation?
ANSWER "T
Gravity flow, because when once installed, it is there for all
time and tho maintenance expense is reduced to a minimum.
QUESTION
Why is a farmer on irrigated lands, the most independent man
on earth?
ANSWER-
Because he does not have to lay awake night asking these ques
tionsWill it rain? Will it rain enough or too much. Will it
rain at the right time. He gets moisture when and where he
wants it. His strawberries and alfalfa may want water, but the
orchard might be injured by rain just at that time. He is mas
ter. He does not have to PRAY FOR RAIN. Can you beat it?
QUESTION
Why do we make the statement that "the lands of Los Mo
linos Land Company are the RICHEST in the great Sacramento
Valley of California?"
ANSWER
Because it is a fact. The soils are 15 feet to 30 feet in depth, are
of a dark sedimentary loam nature, studded all over with gigan
tic oaks, park life in effect, and drained by several rapid
streams that flow into the Sacramento river, with an abundance
of water for irrigation.
question
Is there any danger of a lack of water for irrigation?
ANSWER b
No. The water supply is from Los Molinos river, which rises at
Mt. Lassen, 10,400 feet high, perpetually covered with snow, 30
miles east of Los Molinos. This river carries more water during
the summer months when the snow is melting "by degrees" and
at the time when the most water is needed for irrigation.
QUESTION
How can I obtain more information about these lands and what
are the prices?
ANSWER
Call on our Agent,
Mr. Frank G. Andrews, NF0ir6sS.h
Office between the "Bunch of Grapes" and the "Jug and Bot
tle," and he will give you our literature.
