I doin S this in a small n Quite a number of hearers *V’ t f, e • xcellent habit of noting: in 6* : r Bible texts, from which they e heard sermons, together with ffe 0 f preacher, date, and place. Two such Bibles have been shown *°bv godly women—one in Turin rnC , fBf in Milledgeville. Another habit is to make the Bible p f scrap-book of sermon—re- from the press and, especially, jcrmons which the owner of the Bible has heard delivered. By this mean? these devout spirits obey j^bs* injunction. “Take heed how ye hear." Such readers of our church pre-s. of their Bibles, and such hear- vrf of the -rmon are before my mind as I write thew* lines and hoping thi- -tatement may increase their number. O, that our people, from youth to old age, may become inereasimrly a Bible reading and a Biide-leving nation. “Wherewithal «hal! a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed thereto according to thy word." (Psalm 119:9) “O God, thou hast taught me from my youth: iri hitherto have I declared thy w drocy works. Now also when I am cd grey-headed, O God, forsake Kt; until I have shewed thy power to everyone that is to come" (Psalm 71:17, 18.) Now, hear God’s asswer to His child's piteous plea “Fear thou not; for I am with thee; be not dismayed; for I am thy God I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteous- nesf' (trustworthiness .dependability reliability, fidelity, integrity.) Isaiah 41:10.) God is the rock-foundation outh, maturity, age. See Isaiah 40:11, Psalm 19:14 (margin Strength”), Deut. 32:31, Matt 7:24- i. Matt 16:18, Rom. 8:33, 1 Cor. 10:1. Any other foundation is sand snd will destroy all men or nations who build upon it II. Salem Mean. “Peace” The word Salem means “peace" and is found in many combinations ir. the Bible, the chief example of which is the word “Jerusalem.” When the fathers, one hundred and fiv .V'-ars ago, named their camp ground, th*y evidenlty hoped it w’ould be means of bringing many souls to know "the peace that passeth under standing" (Phil. 4:7). Their holy wish has been granted, for, .during its century and one lustrum of ex istence. many have been saved, re claimed. and advanced in grace. Bish ops Andrew, Pierce, Haygood, Cand- nd Dickey, together with other notable men, not a few have pro claimed with power sent down from n. the Gospel from “the stand” beneath “the arbor,” here. Creditl for this "genuine spirituality” is due only to the faithful pastors and •ut preachers, but to the con- aerated men who compose the board °I trustees, the present chairman be- W. S.
