No one knows now for the campaign Is still to be made and unless something arouses the pi-ople from their complacency, lite tote in November may be small in which case atty tiling can happen. Much will depend on the war situation, on the campaign, on local organizations and on other hap|>enIngs the next few months. O—O George Ade lived and died a Hoosier. He loved every foot of Indiana, admired her people and was always first for any tiling that would benefit th'tn. He was noted M a humorist and author. His "Fables in Slang" were translated in many languages and will live through the centuries. Born at Kentland in 1886, Mr. Ade became a newspaper reporter, continued his studies and became a feature writer. His talents brought him fame and fortune and the people of this state will be joined by those In every part of America in expressing genuine regret because of the passing ot a great man. —O—O Re-election of Fred Bays as chairman of the Democratic state committee was the signal for the opening of a militant campaign in the State of Indiana under the direction of the most dynamic personalities in the history of Hoosier politics.

Bays' plans call for an educational campaign to enlighten every voter of the grave responsibilities involV4-d in this campnlgn. The campaign will be carried into every nook and corner of the state, and it Is underway now. and will be continued

O—O— They Come And Go: Magazines and newspapers seem pretty substantial, but like all other things human are subject to the hazards of life. This appears from a reminiscence of the editors of “Time,'' listing the popular magazines current wnen this new favorite was born in 1923. Among them were Scribner's, tli e Century. World's Work, Everybody's, the Review of Reviews, the Outlook. Vanity Fair, the Forum, the Metropolitan, and the magazine that once was the most brilliant of them all, McClure's. Then there was the Literary Digest, whose much-vaunt-ed presidential polls killed it when they led the publishers to prophesy an overwhelming Landon victory in 1936. The newspaper field might show

Who to a Christian? One might answer in a number of ways. He is one who has been saved by the redeeming grace ot Jesus Otrist. He to one who seeks to live a life in accord with the will ot God. He is a witness tor God. and so on. But the answer that the whole world understands is a life in which the redeeming love of Christ begets a true love for one's fellow man. 1. An Example of Christian Love (Acts 18:1-4). Teaching and preaching are God's ordained way for presenting the troth. They are effective, but only when done by one whose lite exemphfles the truth. In his letter to the Corinthians Paul gives the greatest discussion of love known to the world, but before he wrote it he had lived that truth before them. The Holy Spirit spoke through him of love, because He had already lived the troth out in the preacher. Two things appear here: Paul was: L Working (vv. 1-3). The world's most distinguished missionary and preacher had arrived in Cjrinth. Where was the welcoming committee of local dignitaries? There was none. Whose comfortable home would receive him? None was offered. His was the lot ot the pioneer for Christ. He had to hunt up i a Jewish fellow craftsman and go to work to earn his bread. Paul, like every other Jewish boy, had learned a trade, something he could do with his hands, fie was a tent and sail maker, and was not ashamed to work at his trade. A more recent follower of Christ put It thus: "My business is to preach the gospel, but 1 pack meat to pay the expenses." But notice that Paul did not let this work become the chief thing. As the Lord prospered him he did not decide to “go back into business." No, for his real business was: 2. Witnessing (v. 4). He began, as was his custom, in the synagogue, presenting Christ to Jews and Greeks. The Jews opposed him (see v. 8), and then Paul addressed himself to the Gentiles. God prospered that ministry and encouraged Pau! by a vision, assuring him that the Lord had “much people” (v. 10) in that wicked city. The love of Christ in Paul thus shone forth as a light in the darkness of sin and superstition. Love was something which the heathen world of Paul's day had ao misrepresented and distorted (even as it has today) that It needed definition and exposition. So we have—--11. An Explanation ot Christian Uve (I Cor. IS). This to one of the outstanding chapters of all Scripture. Its magnificent discussion of the greatest of all themes has drawn forth many choice expositiona. The thought centers around the emptiness of the loveless life, the glory of the life of love, and the eternal unchangeable power of love. We gather It up in three words. 1. Indispensable (vv. 1-3). Without love man's attainments are empty. He may become an orator with a "heavenly" gift of speech, but unless he truly loves, his elegant and persuasive talk is just a meaningless noise How true! One may also have marvelous , gifts of prophetic Insight and a won-der-working faith, and find that it Is all a vain and empty experience . without love. Our world leaders . could well study that verse just now. Sacrificial Interest in the needs ot ; mankind to a fine trait in man, but It must have the love of Christ in it or it too to profitless. As we think of feeding the hungry nations of the earth, let uc not forget to make it worth while by doing it in I Christian love. 2. Incomparable (vv. 4-7). The standard for the lite of a Chriitun is a very high one; in fact it is impossible ot atteimnent apart from the grace and power of Chris). Naturally, we find ourselves to be impatient. proud, suspicious, resentful, etc. The new nature tn Christ is just the opposite, tor love rules. Note that phrase "endureth al] things." We need that in these daya when it to so hard to keep on going, or as someone said, “to keep on keeping on." Love endures all things. I. Immutable (w. B-l|>. All things in life change and pass away. Love to eternal and unchangeable Even the spiritual gifts have their fuMUroent and pass from view but love shall endure through all eternity. God, the Eternal One, is love (I John 4:8, 18). When we shall com» to that perfectness of understanding which is to be ours one day. when we shell know even as God now knows us then we shall see love as Ute. ju. preme gift eternal u> iu po we , vsliflty.
