Sam. 17:38-49 Angust 9th, 1908 . Copyright, 1MB hy B. 8. T. Co., ( PMMjaSbreMWmalr. 1 INTRODUCTION TO DAVID. You' will all like that pprt of tbis narrative before tbe 38th verse. Tbe ; youngster coming down from tbe farm see "the fun." His indignation ! that some of the professional fighters , did not stand forth for God and put a quietns on the boasting giant Tbe grand airs 'of his "big soldier brother— "you get right back home to the sheep!" And the littl>fellow's, "Now whatjhave I done?" Don't tt all seem

! so natural and (Drescnt day like? All , '• big brothers and all little brothers | have been in the same situation dozens i of timeg. Then the interview with s King SauL "I'll fight with tMs Philistine." "What, you! why you are ( only a boy." "Yes, but I am a hand • to paw lion and bear fighter. My God, who gaVe me success with those beasts. ' will help me with this one. " How * refreshing to meet a young fellow like this. No wonder God choee a him for a king. Have yoO the same spirit in you to go against the world's Goliahs : and win your kingdom? Rev. 2 : 26 28. "OUR FIGHTING CLOTHES." 39: "I cannot go with these." ' David knew Saul's armor wouldn't do, but he had \o obey the king. How ■ ridiculous be must have looked. So j looks every one in a bigger man's har- ^ n ess. Let the armor be ever so fine , how much better off are you if it don't fit? Suppose you do come into a high position and it is too big for yob ! Takes time to be fitted. David's real , i was his trust in his God and that little leather affair dangling over his shoulder. Both fit. They fit, how- . ever, was not made in a day. Those , long, weary days under the hot sun, on . j the Bethlehem hills with the sheep— , and the lions and bears. Don't ape ; anyone. No coat fits you like your , I own. Be yourself with your homely , j sling. Every fellow has some ad van- , tage. Ever see a sparrow whip a jhswk? God has something individual , 1 for you to do or you would not be here. | [ Get right with God and ask Him what

, | it is. He will use you according to e ability Bnd pay yon according to your . ! work. Matt. 25 : 15 ; Rev. 22 : 12. THE SLING. ■' 4t>: '"His sling was in his hand." - [ David's tribe was famous for il* | , slingers (Judges 20: lfii and David'is j r ! about to add new glory Will you dis- j " tinguish or extinguish your tribe? ! f David s skill not born with him. j . Patient training always counts big j r when the time comes. Improve every " moment with that sling of yours and 1 | be ready when Opportunity challenges | yon. Will Latta was a boy in the 1 tower at Parkersburg. His duty was 1 ! to record passing trains and telegraph I ahead lo the ne.it tower. During ' train intervaiE. instead of dozing or ' loafinv, he worked at improving his j : records. The head man dropped in one , ! day and "sat up and took notice." as 1 j you fellows say. Latta was soon trans- I j ferred to Brosd Street Station and in a , | little while became the General M*na- | i ger of the Pennsylvania Railroad, the 1 1 ; greatest railroad system in the world. | ; David was first of all trusting in God. 1 he took pains in selecting liis scone. Note he "chose" them, not ' grabbed them. Took four more than he ' I needed. In your sheep to-ding down at 1 the office, store or mill, in your odd. moments, do you practice your sline? I If God ever "calls you He will use what ' he finds in your hand John 6 : 9-11. BEWARE THE LITTLES. 1 42 "The Philistine — disdained him. ' | fo- he was but a youth." ] This famous Bible sto*y has forever j I taught the world the uncertainty of 1 | disdain. The old generals "disdained 1 . ! the quiet little fellow whose name was | i Grant. The British generals disdained 1 I the Virginia country surveyor, whose j ! name was Washington. Never disdain anything but evil and wickedness. I That nasty, ill smelling Coal Tar that < folks conld not frive away has proven j be richer than a gold mine. That | vile "smoke" from the coke ovens now yields wealth and power to drive great - engines. Goliath not the last man to down because of contempt for small t things. The am ull fellow pitta God is ( This is oar only hope in

. -■» J life's warfare. Most of as are very ' little fellows, indeed. How few kpow us five miles from borne? But some of you are like Goliath iu your conE tempt for the little fault that comes up out of the valley with Hs deadly sling in hand, the little stake in the game," the "little flyer in the market," the "little fun with the boys" quick, on with your helmet, or • you are loet Eph. 8:jl7.l8. "SOT AIR." 44 : "The Philistine said. I will give thy flesh to fowls and beasts." The historian writes: "It was- an andent custom to indulge in a war of words." As I live opposite the public schools I can testify the custom still 1 continues uwss tbe boys. Besides, I ! have just returned from court doing 1 jury duty ! Cultivate economy of 1 words. Never "blow." Go ahead and ' do the thing. Achievement is the best 1 talker krown. More steel is manufacf tured in the loafing places around town than is turned out ■ in the mills. ! Higher Christian living is done in / ' Young People's Societies. Brother1 hoods and pulpits than is ever achiev-

ed, ^or even attempted, ont in tbe world ' where it ie.so sorely seeded. "Hot 5 air" is slang at the present time, but 1 some slang is so expressive it gets into " the dictionary after a while. Again I j say, never boast. In tbe Christian life, the man who boasts of his strength • is likely to meet the fate of Goliath. • 1 Cor. JO: 12.
