The revival meeting which wub Jn

during lafit week closed Sunday night.

possible on account of Rov. U. W.
Dodson's hnvlng other engagements

Ho preached Inst night from the text:
Yo bellevo In God believe also In me
John 14: J. Ho said in part:
..t?.im. id mf Mimcthlni: that is nam
to get Many say: prove Christianity
to mo and I will then believe.' Belief
should come first and then tho proo
will follow. Faith is the baBls of a
things: It Is tho basis of business; ; it
1 tho baBls of scloncc; and It la tho
basis of religion if men did not have
faith in West oxas real estate they
would not invest in It Tuqy have faith
ia the enhancement of its value; thej
invest in it; nud when their investment
SSnito them many fold thoy have
the proof. They had faith first and the
nroo" came afterward. If Columbus
had not had faith In his theory that
the world was round he could never
have battled With his mutinous crew
and persevered until-ho succeeded in
changing the geography of the world.
Science Js based on tho theory of the
existence of either. No man has ever
seen it or felt it yet it forms the hy-
pothesis upon which all science is
built Scientists havo fnlth in the exis-
tence of that mysterious something
then they go ahead and work out their
proofs.
"If a man will 'ut allow himself to
heed the call of tho spirit and believe
In Christianity a knowledgo of its truth
ill fill his soul and he Will lenow its
reality i ' .
MBut vou say: 'I cannot bollovo In
tho divinity of Christ. 1 know ho was
n good and great man but provo to
me that ho Is divine.' I say to you
that if Christ was not divine ho was
not even a good man. If lie was not
CJod he was not oven n truthful man
For ho claimed to be; ho gave away
places in heaven; he made himself tho
Son of God.
"Come with mo and sec a Gahiican
carpenter a tiallilcaii 'block .head' as
they were called standing the door
of a carpenter shop. He is dreaming;
ho is dreaming of a time when the
world will ncknowldego him as the
greatest teachor; of a time when great-
er armies than tho world has ever
known will march In his name. Ah!
an idle dream of a Gallllcan carpenter.
But now look back through tho 1800
years since ho lived in tho form of
man. See him as ho passes along and
says to Gallllean fishermen: 'follow
mo' and seo .them follow him. Seo
him as an ignorant Gallllcan carpen-
ter feeding the thousands with a few
small fishes and barley loaves. See
him as he goes through three short
' years of his ministry and finally up
to tho cross. Ah! that's tho end of It
ho mill of an idle dream of a Gallllean
i.lookhoad. But. hold! They say he has
risen. Tho Gallllcan carpentor risen!
The dream has beeomo a reality; nnu
now 1S00 years after behold a great
Christian tomplo erected in his name
that ombraces Within its walls tho
whole world that numuois as Its mom-
bors mlUlons upon millions of people
who have heard that call: 'Yo bellevo
In God bellevo also in mo.' Behold
the Christ tho divlno Christ"
Mr. Dodson concluded his sermon
with an appeal to tho people to ack-
nowledge Christ and bo enlisted In his
service.

pOWN ON TM 10 RRANOII.
.lake II. Harrison tho Southern Poet
is author of these beautiful lines:
r went down on the branch today
And sat thero in the suu
And thought of boyhood's bygone days--
And all their harmless fun;
And felt again tho gonial warmth
And shelter of tho brush
While all around was quietude
The solemn woodland hush.
Tho red birds came and looked at me
Tho "Jorcpa' came also
And rabbits wondering tho while
Kept hopping to nnd fro;
For I sat quietly and long
My head between my hands
And had tho feelings and tho thoughts
No young brain understands.
My eyes grew misty too sometimes
And sobs came In my breath
As faces fair came back to mo
From out tho land of death;
And trod with mo the patliB of yore
In haunts Just such as thesi'
Down in the thickets on tho branch
Mid briars brush nml trees.
But life was young nnd rosy then
Tho shadows sought the West
The sun seemed warmer than today
The chilly winds at rest;
Tho "Jorees" had a hrlghtor glint
The red birds brighter oycB
And rabbits camo and wept their way
With moro profound surprise.
Tho charm was there though as of
yoro
Tho wind tho warmth tho sun;
Tho stirring leaves the rabbit's tread
The twitter half begun
Of absent-minded "Jorco" birds-
That In the summer days
with gladsome notes that filled the
glen
Camo hero to nest andpraise.
Oh llfo you have your winter days..
But may thoy over bring
The shelter from the chilly winds.
And sweet deslro JsfuV
