memory is dear to the Sunday School world. His influence will last tor years to come. There are not many great men for God, but Marion Lawrance was one. This biography should be in the hands of every S. S. teacher and officer in the country. Inspiring and instructive, it will prove to be a bless ing to other workers who are seeking to advance the Lord’s work. He lived, he loved, he labored, and to his cease less effort the Sunday School is and will be indebted until the Lord comes. (Revell). burdened black man in the United States would hear the true Gospel, if every man whom God has called would answer the call and run ,as' eagerly as did Philip .to obey the call. The great negro race would go forward and upward, rejoicing, accomplishing great things for God and their country. AUGUST 2, 1925 God’s Friendliness as Expressed in Nature Matt. 6:26-30; Psa. 145:16 (An Outdoor Consecration Meeting) God’s bountiful and loving provis ion for everything in Nature is a pledge of His provision for our 'every need, if we but meet the conditions, Matt. 6:33. This verse is very impor tant, the climax of His message. If we make His glory and His kingdom our concern, He will make the supplying of our needs His concern. If a flower is cut off from the earth it withers and dies. If a man is cut off from God, he is also without life. After reading these wonderful promises surely we can trust God. How true are the words of Mueller, “Where anxiety begins, faith ends; where faith begins, anx iety ends.” Phil. 4:6-19. Nature is filled with illustrations of Biblical truths. William Wilberforce called flowers “the smiles of God’s goodness.” Different phases of nature are used as figures of speech again and again in the Bible. Psa. 1:3; Psa. 52:8; Jer. 17:7-8: Believer compared to a tree. . Psa. 51:7: Cleansing from sin to the whiteness of snow. Psa. 23 :2 :' The Christian life com pared to green pastures and still waters. Prov. 6:27, 28: Sin compared to fire. Song of Sol. 2:1: Jesus compared to the rose and lily. Isa. 5:2-7: Israel, to a vineyard. John 15:1-6: Disciples, to branches of a vine.

We can never know God until we see Jesus Christ on the Cross. The revelation of God in nature and conscience leaves men who have never heard the Gospel without excuse.'- (Rom. 1:18-20), “H o w shall we escape” ;since we have the f uller reve lation of God in the Bible.
