Mr. Massey read from 4th Philip
ians, and his text was from Isaiah,
27:5. “Take Hold of My Strength”
was his theme, and for about 30
minutes held his audience at rapt at
tention. The words of Jehovah to
Isaiah. God gives his people assur
ance, as a father to a child.
He speaks with authority and
force. The appeal is for men to
know the Lord. “Be ye reconciled
to God.” The backslider ask to re
turn. God’s people to put first things
first. Confess our sins, and go back
to Bethel Christ, our all, and in all
Spiritual work must be done by the
spiritual. These are serious times
financially, socially, in our families,
and in our churches. We must face
the facts, but remember God still
lives. Be optimists, not pessimists.
Told story of the Mother Eagle
testing out her young. Set not our
hearts and affections upon things
material, but things above. We must
not limit the possibilities of the Holy
One of Israel. God made us for a
specific purpose, and all will be well
if our faith fails not. Let’s find our
selves, and work for Him. Khe had
no purpose for us here, He would
take us. Let’s do as He commands,
and obey His will. Spoke of Caleb
and Joshua. Also, of the lost mo
tion in some machinery. Let’s apply
ourselves whole-heartedly to His ser
vice, and all will be well.
At the conclusion of the service,
Mr. Massey was greeted by many of
his old friends.

Sneezers Begin Annual
Hunt For Remedies
Washington. Between sneezes
and snuffles, hay fever sufferers are
taking their pens in hand to ask the
public health service what to do. -
An average of fifty letters daily
are being received and the number
will probably show a sharp increase
soon, since the head villain in the
hay fever tragedy, the ragweed, has
just begun to pollute the air with its
pollen.
The barrage will begin in force
about August 15 and will continue
until frost. Incidentally, the com
mon belief that goldenrod is one of
the victim’s arch enemies is errone
ous. The health service says it is
almost as innocent at it looks.
Some sufferers are asking where
to go. Government physicians are
extremely conservative in naming
sections but generally speaking the
ragweed does not grow east of the
100th meridian.
It is estimated that it causes about
95 per cent of the hay fever to which
approximately 5,000,000 persons in
the United States are susceptible.
Nor does ragweed grow upon the
Atlantic, Pacific, or any other ocean.
A cruise on a yatch would help.
There is comfort also for those
who haven’t the time or money, to
leave home until frost.
Serums, or rather extracts, have
been developed which neutralize the
substances causing the trouble as
effectively as-a good mask does the
common varieties of gas.
They gre widely available and
most of the rose-cold clan —rose-
cold is another name for the same
malady—know their favorite brand
of extract.
Some have several favorite brands.
Persons are known to be susceptible
to grass pollen, thistle pollen, tree
pollen, dandruff from various ani
mals, feathers, dust, orris root, wheat
flour, foods, some kind of face pow
ders and other things as well.
Life for them is a succession of
sneezes and vaccinations. Ordinari
ly, immunization is good only for
one season. After a few years, how
ever, there is a noticeable diminution
in the virulence of the disease.
