OPEN MIND ASPIRES TO QUIT LIMITATION OF FRACTIONAL LIFE

"We all live a mere fraction of a real life, and the fraction we live -when recognized as such holds unlimited possibilities of reaching up toward perfection! Thus did Charles M. Woodman at the West Richmond Friends church. Beek to point out life's limitations and its possibilities, in the first of a series on thepersonal life. Sunflay. "We walk like children playing at blind man's bluff, groping our way toward truth," he declared. "We see the world through spiritual glasses that are blue and everything is going wrong; we see the world through yellow glasses and all of life is perverted. Few have learned to see life whole. " 'We know in part,' says the apostle. All knowledge is partial. There is always more to learn. We pass from astrology to astronomy; and from" the atom and the element to the electron. We are like children, but children are

not 'little men' or 'little women.' They have a way of their own and a life of their own. Their life is a fraction of what it later becomes. Discerns Real Values

Two of the best known and most able speakers identified with Christian Endeavor work in the state and nation have been secured to address a rnnferPTiPO of RifhmnnH v-mn cr

fraction of the whole faith all men Neople, to be held afternoon and even-

should aspire to possess. When a man

has a faith that functions relative to the past and gives him forgiveness, and a faith that functions for the future and assures him of heaven, hut fails to function in such a way as to effect his conduct he lias only, a small fraction of a real faith. -When a man has religion enough to demand that he make honest change and give honest weight and measure, but. will not prevent him from putting shoddy into his goods or Felling impure milk he has a faith that at best is a mere fraction. "For the open minded and growing man the fractional life Is indicative of the -whole life that lies just beyond his reach. To get this he must keep his mind always open to the constantly enlarging conception. If he fill3 his life with a given idea and then seals It up against any further consideration of the Bubject he has closed his mind against development and has shut off the possibility of the whole life. He has stopped growing. Revelations Still Coming "If a man reads his Shakespeare under the smoking light of the pine knot it Is Inconceivable that he would not change that crude light for the tallow candle and the coal oil lamp when they were available. We pass from the ethical standards of the Old Testament to standards of Jesus revealed in the Sermon on the Mount, which is still beyond ouj- grasp. And Jesus said that there were many things yet to be 'revealed to Hi folowers. The Book of Revelation is still open, God Is still speaking to those who have ears to hear. The perfect is yet to be; we have but. the fraction now. "Faith v.ill pass pway, because faith

will be lost in sight. Hope will vanish, for hope will be lost in reality. Love will abide forever, for love is eternal. Iove is of the very nature of God. Good will, kindness, mercy, selfsacrifice and service abide forever. Love is great because love alone can change the fraction of life into the life that i3 whole."

ENTHUSIASTIC DAY AT THIRD METHODIST A day of enthusiastic church activity was enjoyed Sunday at the Third Methodist church under the leadership of Rev. E. L. Gates. - Nineteen new members, nine decisions and nine"1 baptisms are reported as a result of the evangelistic, services which the pastor has been conducting. Rev. Gates preached in the morning upon the eubject, "God Is Ixve." In the evening he had for his theme,

"The Judgment of Man Versus- the Judgment of God." Rev. Gates brought out the fact that man's judgment conj cernirg religion, hell, sin, repentance, and salvation must give way before the judgment of God." Rev. Gates quoted scriptural references to bring God's judgment on each of these TrArti a

Fifty-two new members were present at the evening meeting of the Ep-worth-League. These members were added as a result of the "Win-One" campaign which the organization has been conducting. The campaign will be continued throughout this 'week and several more new members are expected to be added by next Sunday. The annual roll call of the church will be held next Sunday morning and Rev. Gates will preach a sermon appiopriate to the occasion. At the evening services the pledges will be given to all the new members of the Ep-

It's just Jesus, that's aJJL You cannot destroy Jesus. You can kill the man, but you can't kill the spirit. Reading the Bible is God's way of talking to us. And isn't reading the Bible an act of the will? "God has made provision for man to have plenty of material food. If any one starving it is because we have thwarted the plans of God by war and destruction. Why is it we just starve to death spiritually In. the

PRAYER, BIBLE READING AND EXERCISING - IS WAY TO GROW SPIRITUALLY, STAMPER

ATTENDANCE URGED . AT ASHER MEETINGS

- A large attendance Is requested for the meetings of the Virtrinia Asher Business Women's council, Tuesday noon and evening. The members of the Women's conservation? committee especially are invited to be present. The noon luncheon will be served from 11 to 1:30 at the Red Men's hall.

Mr. and Mrs. Loren Jones, who are leading the singing at the evangelistic services being held at the First Methodist church, will give several numbers. The women of St. Paul's Lutheran church will serve the luncheon. The evening meeting will be held from 5:30 to 7 o'clock. Each girl is requested to bring a friend. Mrs. A. H. Backus will give a short talk. Mr. Harry Box, song leader at the Grace Methodist church revival meeting, will sing. Following the meeting in the Red Men's hall the council will adjourn to the Grace church, where the members will attend the evening re? rival service.

Method of growth "in the grace and ' knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ" was explained by the Rev. A. L. Stamper, pastor of the First Christian church, in his sermon on "How to Grow," delivered at the church Sunday morning. Taking his sermon text from Second Peter 3:18, where the Apostle Peter commands that followers of Jesus Christ grow in the knowledge of Jesus, just as though growth were a matter of exercising the will, the will, the Rev. Stamper said: "The conditions of growth are acts of the will. We can will ourselves to grow and become strong. It is true in the spiritual, physical and intellectual spheres. We are all babes in the kingdom and we will never get full growth in the flesh. "Some people imagine that when they come into the kingdom by baptism the race is over; but it is only

begun. We then throw off the weights so that we can grow.' The goal is to see Him as He is, for now we are but children. All of God's teaching proves that it is a matter of development to become strong. "Burbank's power in transforming the dahlia from a flower with a bad odor to one with a lovely aroma, and

'Is that any mere strange which Jesus has asked than the way our food is assimilated and becomes a part of our bodies, each element of food going to the part of our bodies where it is needed? "We are asked to feed on Jesus Christ. But how are we to feed on Him? I want to recommend three ways : "First, by prayer. What did Jesus mean when He said, 'I have meat that you know not of?' Did He not mean He was feeding on the strength and power of His Father? I-Ia went early

m the morning, before i daybreak, to feed on the food which made Him strong. When souls commune together they become like each other. "That is the purpose of the Lord's table. " That is the reason "why we gather at the Lord's table so that we

that gave you the true bread out of

A few years ago, beautiful teeth, were seen less often than now. Now millions show them. You Bee them everywhere. People are combating film. " Tooth troubles were almost universal. Now people combat the cause in a scientific way. Won't you now learn what brought that change about? Film the enemy Film is the great tooth enemy that viscous film you feeL It clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. It absorbs stains, then forms dingy coats. Tartar is based on film. That's why teeth lose their luster,

Film holds food substance which ferments and forms acids. It holds the acids in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Germs breed by millions in it They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. That's how tooth troubles come, The new methods Now we daily fight that film, Dental science, after long research, found two effective ways. One acts to curdle film, one to remove it, without any harmful scouring. Able authorities proved those met&ods. Then a new-type tooth paste was created, based, on modern research: Those two great film combatants were embodied in it,

That tooth paste is called Pepsodent. Careful people of some 50 nations now employ it, largely by dental advice. Night and day Pepsodent also tnultiplle tia alkalinity of the saliva, to neutralize mouth acids as they form. It multiplies the starch digestant in the saliva, to digest starch deposits which may otherwise ferment and form acids. Thus it gives manifold power to these natural agents which night and day fight acids the cause of tooth decay, YouH welcome it Pepsodent will delight yon. Note how clean the teeth feel after using. Mark the absence of the viscous . film. See how teeth whiten as the film-coats disappear. Watch these effects. Cut out this coupon and send it for a test It will be a revelation.
