rember 11, 1920: me = - ee eur Thursday, November 14, 1920 *Y NEWLINEFOR : ARNEL LOVE Said to be Going In for a Course of Religious Instruc- tion in Chicago. (Owen Sound Sun) Arnel Love is practically a free man and is now working at thé Queen St, asylum in Toronto, and will be there for another month or 80, when he will spend a few dayr visiting friends in Owen Sound and pomibly Flesherton. He intends to go to Chiewgn in about six weeks and will there train for Christian work, possibly for ovan: gelicsl work, 'The above facts were con- tained in 9 remarkable letter received a few days ago by prominent business man. Anyone reading the letter could not but be inipreased thot Arnel Love was really converted to a Christian life, He orly wants an opportunity to bring the Christian meteuge to as many a possible, and no matter what his walk in¢fife may be, it ia certain that his future life will be an ex- ample worthy of emulation. Some time ago it wus stated that Arnel Love would not be tried for the murder of hie mother for which his father had paid the death penalty. Though he con. fessed to the murder, his confession bad not been accepted by the authorities as con- clutive evidence that he committed the crime, and to bear thie out, noted alienixts have agreed that Arnel Love's confension is the result of « mental obsesion. And their findine is the real controlling force. No jury would convict him on his own evidence with noted alienists giving evidence ogainst conviction. Under these circumstances, the suthorities could not be blamed for not bringing the young man to trial. THE VIRTUES OF GOLF J. Stitt Wilson, formerly socialist mayor of Berkley, Cal., sume up the virtues of golf as follows: "I know of no game eo exacting on trutbfulness, honor, integrity, courage. generosity and friendship in vie: | tory cr defeut.

Jewus Healing the Centurion's Servant, 5-13, This centurion occupied » much higher social position than Jesus, but he recogniz- ed the infinite superiority of Jesua to him- self (cf Lu. 7; 6, 7). If Matthew's Gospel contained the only account, we would get the impression that the centurion came at once himself, but be certainly-did not until after he had sent the Jewish elders and then bin friends (Lu. 7: 3, 6). It was a deep sense of personal unworthiness tut kept him beck frown the personal approach to Jesus, though the earnestness of hiv de- sire for his wlsve opd the thought that be wus not worthy for Jesu to come under his roof sent, him out at last (o meet Him and save Him the trouble of coming further Hin tender care for the slave ia only second in beauty to the «implicity and strength of bis faith (cf.

There was no one else whu could help him but Jesus; but there is nothing too hard for Him, and we can always turn to Him when there is no other place to go. The cen- turion built hiv faith upon what he bad "heard concerning Jesus" (cf Rom. 10:17). He who witnesses for Jesus never knows what may come of his testimony. The centurion's prayer was short and definite, How gracious the Lord's answer, "I will come and heal him." Jesus said "I will come" because He was invited. He is / ; always ready, to accept an invitation to uny home or|heart (Rev, 3:20), 'He is worthy" hadi been the testimony concern- ing him by the Jewish elders (Lu. 7:4).

Just a word would do the work (v. 9; ef. Lu, 7:9), God alone can banish sickness by his bare word (Ps, 83:0; 107:20).'. The /VRoman soldier bad got glimpse of the { [deity of Christ. He considered sickness to \|be an absolutely subject to the word of 'Jesus aa were his subjects to his own word. Thank God the centurion was right about that (cf, Lu. 4:35, 86; Mk. 4:39; Jno. 11: 43, 44). Jestis marvelied at the centurion's faith, He bad met so little faith on earth that to find so great faith in such a quar- jonishis 'He not only ed at)she centurion's faith, He commended it (of. Mat, 15:26), Faith is a very plens- ing thing to Christ (Heb. 11:5. 6; Jno. 6: 29). In the two instances where Jesus commended faith it was s Gentile who was Xhe believer, In this heathen's faith Jesus got a glimpse of the great coming day when the Gentiles, would be gathered to Him (vy. 11). The centurion got something besides commendation; he got what he sought, healine for hia dear slave. He got it be- cause he believed (v, 18; cf. Jan, 1:5; Mk. 11:24). He got all he believed for (v, 13; ef, Mat, 9:20; 17:20; Mk. 9:23; Lu. 1:45) Tl. "The Compassion of Jesus for the 'Unshepherded Multitudes, 9 :35-38.
