Writing, in an upper room in Jeru m, this seems peculiarly a place lesson, although it is a season- able word for all the world. The story of the weman at the well, and her in- terview with Jesus, is local in its set- (ting and in its spirit; for this is the center of antagonism and bigotry. It is general, because this is the day wherein the world is glimp- Sing a new and larger conception of the God who is a Spirit, and who ht be worshipped in spirit and in When this befuddled time of ours gets its ideas about God straighten- ed out it will find that many other matters have likewise been cleared up. Although they do not realize the many "liberal" persons nowa- days have conceptions of the supre Deity that are as narrow and inad quate as those of the earliest Hebrews who worshipped their God on these hills. The modern misconception consist- ed in regarding God as a Social Pro- pramme, or Economic Higher Law, or a vague Spiritual Urge, or a Supreme Necessity for keeping the lower classes in order. It is no exaggera- tion to declare that multitudes of edu- cated men and women have no thought of God except as a factor in social reconstruction. He is that, but he is infinitely more. A Highbrow Blunder. God is not 'a Social Programme. God is notya Special Partner 'with the American Kagle, or the British Lion, any more than with the Prussian Eagle. He is not a citadel for capital- ism nor a banner for Bolsheviem. To regard him as a mere adjunct of poli- tical and social reform is impiety. There is need for clear thinking here. While God has a relation to everything human, he is first of all and above all else, the Eternal Deity, the uncreated Creator, the Ruler of the universe, the King of kings and Lord of lords. He is so exalted in his character and rights that he is entitled to worship from all his creatures. Man can have no other relationship with Jehovah until he bows down before *~ | him in adoration, With all its defects, Mohammedan- ism has done one thing for two huud- red million agmibers of the human race: it has tRught them the great- ness of God. The Moslem is reverent, | ; whatever else he may not, be, majesty and supremacy the one God breathes through all the thought of Islam, No Moslem ever cheapéns God. He canfiet conceive of the in« effable One whose name is holy and reverénd, as being a mere aceessory to any scheme or plan of mortal. They understand that our God is not a little God, but One whose ways, through past finding out, are always right. Men's attitude toward the League of Nations, and upon the Peace Treaty matters less, infinitely less, than their views upon God. Society is shaped by its sense of the Supreme. Every- Ji we are or do is affected by our dens of God. When we lift up the proper attitude toward the exalted- ness and holinéss and justice of God we are adopting the most direct means of serving our time. This is why the Church is a more important presént factor in our troubled life than any political party or organ- ization, or any economic 'movement.

In center of Sinai's sublime and simple grandeur, 1 found the monks spending four or five, hours a day, amid innumerable lamps gnd icons, incense and forms, worshipping by an ancient ritual. It was impressive; but not so much so as the and majestic nite mountains wherein God spoke to Moses and to Elijah. Likewise, there is something really repellant in the of ecclesiasticism Rope Bn Je em, where the spiritual 8 hidden by the formal. An American missionary said to me last evening, "The more I have seen of formalism and ecclesiasticism in Jerusalem, with its superstitions and its sites and its strife, the more I believe in the sim- | ple, spiritual faith of the Quakers. . Every reverent heart has at some time or other longed to visit Jerusa- lem: yet from Jerusalem 1 repeat that "God is a spirit:.and they that wor- ship him must worship him in spirit and in truth!" Not the place, but the purpose; mot the form, but the faith; not the words, but the will, de- termine acceptable worship. Where All Wants Are Met. All Americans abroad have a wist- ful interest in the homeland. With the meagre facts in their possession they consider and discuss the trend of events back home. A few of us were recently about the praiseworthy get-together campaign of the churches, and the coneerted movement to raise all their benevolent funds as ome national budget, Said one who is wise in the things of the spirit as well as in the ways of the world, "America's real need is not for more money for religion, or for bet- ter ways of securing monky for re- ligion. In our mission work we un- derstand as perhaps the folks at home cannot, the need of money. But there is something more important. It seems to me that the churches are magnify- ing organization and appliances and wealth, whereas it is a spiritual re- plenishing, a spiritual ' rebirth, a spiritual passion, that this hour re- quires above all else. One great voice calling the people back to a sense of God, would worth more than any new organization." What was that man's opinion, spok- en quietly amid the clamor of an or- ental cafe, except a modefn version of the words of Jesus concerning "living water"? Our day's. thirst cannot be satisfied at any of our modern wells. We int for the living waters of God. All lesser wants are included within our need of God. Not his works will satisfy; but he him- self. Until we fifd God as a. living, bright reality, m personal to" our souls than the dear ones by our side, we shall miss the spirit of true wor- ship. As said David--perhaps when looking out upon the very hills to which I turn my eyes at the mo- ment. "And. now, .Lovd,, what wait I for? My hope is in thee."

What is not generally understood is the reason for the un- provoked invasion of India by the Afghans, their declaration of war upon Britain at a time when Britain 'was readier for war than ever she was before in her history, when the Afghans had not one chance in a million of accomplishing any object but killing a few soldiers or mur- dering 'a few settlers, and perhaps paying the price of their indepen- dence for the exercise. Ignorance is the : explanation. The Ameer ' of Afghanistan thought that Britain Was war weary, that she had no heavy guns in India, and that if he made a successful sortie the Indian population would rise in rebellion. Maybe some Bolshevist or German agent told him; maybe he saw it in a vision, for the Ameer is subject to dreams. . The story of the antecedents of the rising is told by Mr. J. W. Me Loughlin, of the Joust Engineering Co., who has been in Jelalabad for a year supérintending an installation. The trouble began with the staunch loyalty of the late Ameer to Great Britain. He resisted all efforts of the war party, who desired that advane tage shquld be taken of the European war for an invasion of India. Habi- bullah remained firm, however, and 80 a plot was laid to assassinate him. The Teaders in the conspiracy was Aminullhah, the present Ameer, and second son of the murdered king; his uncle, Nasrullah Khan, the comman= der-in-chief of the army, and a num- ber of high oMBers, belonging to the powerful S8haibar family, of which the commander-in-chief also is a member. But it appears that the Ameer had got wind of the plot and was able to take care of himself for some time, or until those too close to him were seduced. Nasrullah immediately proclaimed himself regent, and the eldest son of the murdered Ameer, Naidullah, had to acquiesce, for he was stir- rounded by enemies, and if he had protested would have met his father's fate. The body of the late Ameer was then buried by the plotters on & waste piece of ground in Jelalabad, trodden on by every passing coolie, and grazed over by wandering cattle. The eldest son protested, and as a slight concession the body was ex- humed and buried on the golf course.' Now, thé Ameer had been very fond of golf, but the game was detested by his entourage, whom he had in- sisted should algo play, gr. it not play, act as caddies,~ and' perhaps their idea was that if the Ameer was 'I buried there no Afghan would fre- quent the course. Then Aminullah the second son, valled the nobles of the kingdom to Khabul, officially in formed them of his fathers death, and announced that his uncle, Nas- rullah, must henceforth be recognise ed as Ameer, , {But the nobles appear not to have fy in the plot. They asked ques- tions about the assassination. They demanded to kpow if Nasrullah or . | Naidrullah had made any efforts to discover the murderers.

"What's the tter with making Aminullah¢ Ameer?" demanded one noble with a long white .
