BOYS AND GIR1.S CLUBS.
No movement having for its object
the betterment of rural i ff i;s worthy
of more* encouragement and support
than that of forming and ma:ntaining
boys' and girls' clubs. It ia gratity-
ing to observe that the movement is
spreading rapidly and that more than
half a million young people on the
farms of the country are enrolled in
clubs sponsored by the Federal gov
ernment alone.
In a recent review by the depart
ment of Agriculture it was shown
that civic bodies, fair committees,
bankers and individual business men
in many States are talcing notice of
the club movement, and are foster-
ing it through the offering of prizes
scholarships, trips and other rewards
for efficiency shown by farm boys and
girl3 in carrying out the various proj-
ects included in the club program,
Club activities not only serve to
prepare young people 1'or. their lite
work, if they choose to stay on the
farm, but tht conducting of then-
own meetings develops qualities ot
leadership and confidence in them-
selves. Even those who enter °ther
pursuits are better fitted for then
future careers by the discipline^and
training which are inseparable irom
club membership.
Every rurol community should co-
operate with home demonstration
agents and other enxtension workers
in promoting boys' and girls' clubs.
It is a splendid enterprise, which will
have a most beneficial effect upon
farm life in the future.
ROUGH RIDER DIES
A Short Sermon
By Rev. S. L. Ball, Sherman, Texas
Text: "For man looketh on the out-
ward appearance, but the Lord look-
eth on the heart*" I. Sam. 1G:7.
In fnv Inwt "r-hort sermon'" I cnll«\}
."it'.or.tlcr. rojr.cthir.s thr.t St. Pa;,
had to my cor.ewnir.g th? "old man"
and cho "r.cv.* man,'' er.d thr.t tho "old
m'cr." is corrupt. I have not soiccted
this text to talk about Saul and his
fine appearance and his reject ion
from being king over Israel, nor the
election of David as king of Israel,
nor the • fact that good old Samuel
looked on the outward appearance of
EHib the line looking ron of Jesse,
and thought Unit, he must be "the
Lord's anointed" when he was not.
But I have selected this text to call
further attention to the fact, that God
is concerned not so much for thrf1 out^.
ward appearance of a man as he is
for the purity of his heart. Man was
created in the image of God and of
his likeness. It has been said that
there are two features of the divine
image in which man was created—
one is called the natural image, and
the other the moral image. The nat-
ural image consists of spirituality,
intellectuality, immortality and free-
dom of the will; and the moral image
consists of "righteousness and true
holiness."
Man is fallen. When Adam sinned
in the Garden of Eden and thereby be-
came a violator of divine law he was
expelled from Eden and sentenced to
eat bread in the sweat of his face and
finally to return to dust. In this act
of transgression he became a sinner
in the moral government of God. And
when lie was expelled, he and his
bride, mother Eve, went out as sin-
ners, and they forfeited the moral
image of God—''l-ighteouness and
true holiness." They did r.ot forfeit
the natural image cf God—they re-
tained their spiritual nature, their in-
telligence, their immortality and their
freedom of will, but they were not
righteous and truly holy. They
were sinners anj their children were
all bom without the moral image
of Cod. So have all children been
born without the moral image of God,
except our' Savior. It is stated that
Adam "begat a son in his own like-
ness, after his own image" Gen. 6:3
It does not say that he begat a son in
tho imago cf God.
~-t Christ c.-.ir.o to esoV ar.d to enrt

-■pj "acnficc ho ^revision f?!'
tho ro;tcrctior. of mar. xo tho mor=l
imsge of God, to "righteousness and
tMM hoiin-rr." That was th« p;ir-
apose of liis coming to destroy the
works of the devil and to restore man
to the image and favor of God.
The all-wise God wa3 able to see
"11'! to 111■1" IN if. l1 ii"vi would ma?-*
better kino than his Una hjoklnc
brother, Elitib, would, though David
had in his nature also what Paul call®
the "old man," the "carnai mind."
But God also foresaw that David
would meet conditions by which he
would be delivered from this evil
heart and become "a man after God's
own«heart." God selected David, not
for what he yas then, but for what
he knew ho would become. And in
after years he uttered many remark-
able prayers, two of which I w:sh
to mention, or rather two statements
iy the same great prayer in Ps. 51.
After David had fallen into a great I
sin, on,-j after Nathan the prophet had
rebuked him, and conviction had seiz-
ed upon him, and he realized the aw-!
fulness of his sin, and began to see
himself as he really was in the midst
of several earnest petitions of pray-
er he bursts out with this exclama-
tion: "Behold, I was shapen in in-
iquity, an in sir did my mother con-
ceive mo." He now realized that the
"old man," which is corrupt, was in
bint, that he was vile an,j mean, and
he continued earnestly in prayer and
bursty out in these words: "Purge me
with hyssop and I shall be clean; Trash
me, and T shall he whiter than snow.::
There should l>e no doubt that God
answered _ h:s prayer, washed away
every stain of Kin and gave him a
clean heart arid a right snirit and re-
store,! him to the joys of salvation.
Many of us in our day need to pray
this prayer and obtain the answer.
Then we could rejoice in the hope of
the glory of God.

WASHINGTON, D. C„ August 16.
•"We shall see a Secretary of Edu-
cation in the President's Cabinet with
a major division of the department
devoted to educational research," said
M:ss Cornelia S. Adair, recently elect-
ed president of the National Educa-
tion Association. She estimated that
the membership in the national asso-
ciation would mount to 200,000 or
300,000. It will be the nation's ef-
fort, she added, to establish in the
coming generations righ standards of
citizenship and appreciation of the
finer things of the past ages as their
rightful heritage. It will be Am-
erica's contribution to the progress of
civilization.
Major General Leonard Wood, gov-
ernor general of the Philippine Is-
lands, who first rose to fame as colo-
nel of the "Rough Riders" regiment
in the Spanish American War, died a
few days ago in Boston at the age of
67, after a distinguished though
stormy career.
General Wood was educated for the
medical profession and entered the
arrriy as an assistant surgeon in 1886,
serving in Indian campaigns in the
Southwest. His apittude for military
duties manifeted itself early, and he
frequently did duty as a line officer
in addition to looking after the health
of the troops. When the Spanish
American war began in 1808, lie was
a captain in the medical department,
stationed in Washington, where he had
become closely associated with The
odore Roosevelt, then assistant secre
tary of the Navy.
. Wood and Roosevelt secured per
mission to organize the Rough Rid-
ers, Wood becoming colonel, and
. - Roosevelt lieutenant colonel, and saw
service in the Santiago campaign, in
which, contrary to popular impres-
sion, the regiment served on foot, the
horses being left behind in Tampa
Wood was made a brigadier general
of volunteers at Santiago, and Roose-
velt became colonel of the Rough
Riders.
General Wood served as military
governor of Cuba prior to the estab-
lishment of the Cuban Republic, after
which he spent several years in the
Philippines. The refusal of President
Wilson to send Wood to France dur-
ing the World War, although he was
the ranking general of the army
aroused considerable controversy, and
the alleged use of large sums of mon-
ey to secure Wood's nomination for
the presidency in 1920 involved him
in another unpleasant incident. In
1921 President Harding appointed
him governor-general of the Philip-
pines, which post he held unt'i his
C. death.
Hi3 administration was marked
with many clashes with Filipino pol-
iticians, who unuccesfully put for-
ward demand for complete independ-
ence, but on the whole his work in the
islands was highly creditable. His
long and distinguished career in the
service of his country is deserving of
grateful remembrance.
