Post-election comment in the United States clam- ors that both political parties face a |presidential election with no great dgure in sight. The church never suffered more than today from a dearth of leadership. In all walks of life the story seems the same. Overseas the two outstanding figures in authority are Lenine and Kemal, both menacing established order. Turn %o the New Testament story, and what do we see? The Leader ot the ages training other leaders to carry on His work. Thereds a lead- ership of ideas and there is a leader- ship by organization and Christ waa preeminent in both. He has domin- ated the centuries by His new philo- sophy and life, and He still heads the most effective and widely-diffus- od of all organizations, the Christian churon. Despito the muddled-mind- edness of mankind, despite the new trend toward anarchy and bolshevism in publig thinking, there is no deny- ing to Jesus His place of leadership in the world today. ? Multiplying to "Carry On." This Leader made leaders. That is the first fact to reckof with, Je- sus trained disciples to carry on after Him. He gave most of His time to the development of the littlc group whom we call the Twelve. To them He unfolded His message and mis- gion. Upon them He impressed His personality. Into them He breathed His Spirit. There were no lengths to which He did not go to embody His will and work in these compan- fons. With a whole world waiting tor His salvation, Jesus yet gave the bulk of His time end powers '0 this unpromising little group, who were, oh! so heart-breakenly slow to under- stand Him, They were so little and He was so great. Stil, that was the principle "hat the Master adhered to throughout: --*Make disciples." It is the law of leadership, Every leader is bound to train o'her-leaders. No great ex- ecutive is wholly fulfilling his task unless he is making himself unneces- sary, One of the greatest Christian organizations in North America is in a grave condition today because for a generation past it has been a one- man movement. With a brilliant ex- ecutive at its head, who has had no gift for associating with himself other strong men, it has now come a point when the end of this man's leadership is in sight, with nobody to take his place. The success of the organization has been sacrificed, all unwittingly, to the success of its highest official. : Everybody knows the story of the Talmage church in Brooklyn: crowd- ed while Dr. Talmage preached, col- lapsing when he left. He like many another minister, had failed to make disciples, and to build up an organiz- atton to do greater works than he had dome, Occasionally we see a church, not otherwise notable, out of which many young people have gone to col- Joge, and a succession of students 'nto the ministry, There we may al- ways find a pastor who has caught the Jesus art of making disciples. What is the highest reward of Sun- day school teaching? It is this, that a man or woman may make disciples who will do a far greater service for God and the world than thé teacher himself could do, A really great teacher definitely and skillfully de- votes himself to this very object, the making of disciples. Thereby a nreighhorhood, a community, a church, even a generation may be changed. There is more of meaning for every one of us than we common- ly discover in the wise words of the grentest Leader, "Go ye, and make disciples." Out of the Common Clay. Bafore the war there was a world- wide tradition that aristocracy was justified because it furnished the only adequate leadership for mankind. That delusion perished in France. While tens of thousands of the sons of blood and privilege died gallant ly at the front--many of them, we now eee, needlessly sacrificed to quix- otic traditions---nevertheleas the race learned that qualities of leadership and nobility spring up from the most unexpected places. The potentiality of the common man was proved by the war, It was a demonstration of democracy. And in the nations wherein the greatest changes have occurred: since 1914 the effectives have sprung up from the soll of the common gpeople.

This truth is tremendous. It un- derlies 211 our hopes for the success of democracy. And it is a discovery of Jesus. He it was who slaked Jn- iperdal projecis upon the inherent worth of the common man, When he established his church did he call to his edd the great rabbis of Jewry, the imperial princes of Rome and the famous philosophers of! Greece? Or did he. pillar his New Order upon birth and breeding and education and wealth? Not a bit of it. Jesus chose the commonest of common olay for the fashioning of the foundations of His kingdom. Callous-handed fish- ermen made up the most of his cab- inet. The best of the lot, from a worldly standpoint, was only a tax- collector, The most ordinary of or- dinary men were the ones picked out by the Master to carry on his 'divine mission. We call them the first mis- slonaries; they were that' and far more basides, Anybody who grows discouraged over democracy need but remember the material out of which Christ built His church. He bad faith In man. In the least he saw the best. "He kngw what was' in man:" there- fore he trusted people tc rise to the height of their possibilities. Along- side of the example of Jesus we put the stupidity of some churchmen who cheequiously honor the "best people' meaning thereby the wealthy and the poclally exclusive. 1 have known that argument to be advanced to newcom- ers in 8 community as a reason why they should join a certain church! And I have known pastors who had plenty of time for social intercourse with their rich members, but who were '00 busy" to visit the poor. May the Carpenter Christ forgive this black disloyalty to allihis spirit and teaching and example. The Leader Versus '""The Boss." Ameriean politics has developed an odious creature called "the boss." He seems to be suffering pardal eclipse at present, although the coun- try will be at least a generation in re- covering from his debased and debas- ing conception of public life. Usual- ly the "boss" has been a grafter, holding power by a cynical exploiia- tion of the public and by a dis¢rimi- nating sharing of his loot. Seldom has the "boss" been a leader embody- ing any principle or directing any popular movement, Part of his power has been the secrecy that has sur- rounded his plans and the sources of his revenue, A leader, on the contrary, confides in his followers. He indoctrinates them with his ideals. As Jesus sald to those nearest him, when the crowd was puzzled by certain parables "To you it is given to know." The mind of Christ is clearest to those who are closest to the heart of Christ. In this fat portion of ecripture which is the assigned lesson, we find the Saviour opening his heart to his disciples, showing them how he must suffer and be rejected and killed and rails ed from the dead. Likewise it was those closest to Him who saw the Lord transfigured. This tender personal intimacy of Jesus with his friends was at once their equipment and their reward, as indeed ot is today. The central truth of all missionary efforts, and its one eupreme reason, is that Christ goes forth in the person of his representa tives. He walks on jtheir feet, he speaks through their lips, he minis- ters with. their hands, he suffers in Sheir.. experiences, he triumphs in their achievements. The Old Guard's passion for Napoleon was weak and inaipid as compared with the Christ- fan lisciples loyalty to his Master. And this is the victory that is over- coming the world, the faith of the friends of Christ in the power of Christ to save mankind. All Bible teaching is aimod at life; this lesson says, above all else, that even as Jesus sent out the Twelve and the Seventy to preach and to heal, 80 today the same Lord #s call- ing for friends who will accept an identical commisaion to a world that fs in sorer need than was the Rome of his own time, Copyright, 1922, by The Ellis Service. a MEMORIES OF THE DUTOH.

I had been gassed, and was suffering from shell shock and rheumatism, and was #0 nervous I could not sleep at night. I tried many medicines and doctors, but none of them did me any good for any length of time. I got so bad, in the Fall of 1919, my hands were #80 shaky I could scarcely hold anything, and it seemed as if I had a steel band pressing on my head. The least ex- citement would almost drive me into fits, and my whole system seemed to be in disorder. I had cramps in my legs nearly every night, and hot and cold chills running up and down my back nearly all the time. One day I decided to try Milburn's Heart and Nerve Pilis, and after I had taken six boxes I began to feel better. I kept on using them and after a while I was completely relieved."

They are well worth seeing, especiai- ly as the ordinary globe-trotter doas not take any interest in such things. © I took a native boat and went up the one at Bentota and I have quite a beautiful picture gal- lery in my mind of what I saw on' the banks of the canal. The boat was just two hollow logs with a platform nailed on between them. I sat on a|- box and lay on my stomach when we went under some of the low bridges, but that only made the trip more full of incident. I fished, too, and caught many strange-looking fish. The canal ended in a lake where I saw some exquisite pink water-lilies and a number of ducks and water-birds. In other travels I saw Dutch canals in Weltervreden and other places in the Dutch East Indies, which reminded me of the Dutch canals in Ceylon; they are quite distinctive, and I think I could pick out Dutch work anywhere. Lingering Memories. "There are many little things to remind one of the od Dutch days. There are for example all the old- time names beginning with "Van." My pretty little nurse was a Miss Violet VanDort, and if you look through the columns of a Ceylon newspaper, you will see many old Dutch names. Those old Dutchmen, who went out to Ceylon, were men of good old Dutch families, some of the bluebloods of Holland. , They tried to be very just and fair to the natives, and part of their laws still remain as enacted." "I know a Dutchman, Uncle, and he is a gerat coffee-drinker. Did the Dutch you met drink much coffee." "Why, yes, Teddy, it is the first thing you are offered in a Burgher home in the morning. Black coffee is a.regular Dutch beverage, whether one is in Ceylon, the Dutch East In- dies, or South Africa. The coffse mostly comes from Java now that is drunk in Sunny Lands. "The Portugese Jave left namos behind them too, such as Don Sebas- fan, or Don Pedrohamy, but it re- mained for the Dutch to stamp the {sland as a Dutch possession. Had the Dutch not sided with Napoleon, the island might still be Dutch to- day."
