President of Union Theological Seminary, Virginia, at the First Presbyterian Church Sunday night. The expression of many was that a more scholarly sermon has never been preached in Kinston. text was taken from HI. Timothy 4:13, "The cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with them, and the books, but especially the parchments." Paul, the greatest man of his day, was in prison and writing to young Timothy, who was soon to make a visit to the great apostle to the Gentiles. He expressed the desire three things: The cloak for his bodily comfort.

He longed for the old cloak at Troas with which to comfort his body in a Roman dungeon. Chained in the Roman prison, and undergoing, physical torture, not only desired clothes for confort of his body, but asked for books, with which to nourish his "Picture a man with the scholarly mind of the Apostle Paul chained in an unattractive prison without books to read!" The greatest desire of the apostle as he wrote the Roman prison was for the parchments which contained selected parts of the Old Testament. The cloak he wanted for the comfort of his body, the books he desired for the nourishment and comfort of his mind, but the parchments he intensely desired for the comfort of his soul. "In books, we read from the minds of from the Bilbe we read from the mind of God. Under a starry sky man may see the glory of he God beholds displayed; the in wisdom the of laws his of Creator; nature but in neither of these does man find the will of God which is most important for him to know.

The greatest concern of man is not the glory and wisdom of God, but it is to know the will of God and the sinner's relation to His attributes of mercy and justice. Only in the Bible does man find this relation expressed. Therefore, unless he i sa Bible is to the book for the first exercise of his mind, The busy rush of the age is crowding out the word of God which contains that which is most important for man to know. As Paul, the greatest man of his time, desired to Keep the Bible in the forefront of his life, so we today ought to place it first in our reading and elevate it to the most important place in life. It is the one according to Sir Walter Scott, which brings us comfort at the approach of death.

It is the only book that is carried to the house of mourning. It ought to be. the only book to shape the ideals of American life." There will be a regular communication of St. John's Lodge No. 4, A.
