Mrs. Byrd Harris. Proprietor. Buy THAT GOOD GULF GASOLINE GOD OR GOLD? (L. W. Collins.) Mr. Roger Babson, while on a visit to tlie President of the Argentine Re public, was asked why North America had so far outstripped South America. Mr. Babson waived the question by ask ing that the President answer his own question. The President replied: "Be cause the Spaniards who settled South America came In quest of gold, while the Puritans came in search of God.” The President was right. The Span ish gold hunters intermarried with the natives, developed a mongrel people with low moral ideals and a group of unstable, turbulent states that look to America for protection. The people who settled North America came for religious freedom, brought their fami lies, settled America "for the glory of God and the advancement of the Chris tian faith,” and with a passion for God they founded the American Republic pon the Christian religion and Chris tian education. Their elementary schools were religious, using as text hooks the Psalms, the New Testament and the Catechism. They founded Christian colleges to train great Chris tian leaders. The free institutions of bur Republic and our marvelous wealth are largely due to Christian character and trained minds. Fhall we repudiate Hie faith that made us great and adopt the ideal of gold that ruined the Spaniard and gave to South America weak republics? With in the last half century we have found d our great American universities af ter the German type. They arc perme ated with a materialistic philosophy of life, and through the leaders whom they are producing American edneatioh is slowly losing ifs Christian character and is coming to he materialistic. Tl\e Christian Education Movement n our Church, nlopg with similar move ment in nil other Protestant churches, proposes to break this influence and to restore to this country the Ideals of >ur fathers —the Christian religion and itristinn education. This Movement Is to bring us hack to true American ism. It proposes to us a great system of elementary religious educa tion through the Christian home and an efficient Sunday school, and to • quip and endow strong Christian col leges and universities which will turn out an adequate supply ; of trained Christian leaders to do the Christian •irk of the world and to lead the na tion Into paths of righteousness. Tin* churches of Southern Method ism arc beginning n campaign on May 29th for the raising of $33,000,000 for tltis cause. Tlte future character of our civilisation, of the type of world in which our children's children shall live is absolutely dependent upon the re sponse that is made to this appeal. We are menaced by moral bankruptcy l>e cause of our religious illiteracy. We have the peril of lawlessness at our very doors as wel!~as the peril of Bol shevism on every side of us. There Is no salvation in a Godless culture, as Germany has so well shown. Our only hope lies in the training of our young people in Christian Ideals, in producing Christian lenders like Henry W. Grady and others who shall lead tills nation again in paths of righteousness and peace. Whnt will lie Methodism’s repsonse to this appeal? Shall Methodism do its part in this gigantic and imperative ■tusk? Because the Christian college trains head and lienrt together, it is the only hope of the world. It is once more* a question of God or gold and history will record our answer. Branch Manager Wanted.
