we will be merciful. The Ameri- 
can working man wants justice not 
eharity. Some people think that 
the way they spend their money will 
justify the. way it is earned. The 
end never yet justified the means. 
The means must be correct—must 
be just. What is the value of money 
if it has been gained at the expense 
of life. Beyond justice there must 
be merey and loving kindness. 
3. In the third place Christ requir- 
es that the modern employer walk 
humbly with God. 
Some people will say a business 
man cannot be a Christian, cannot 
walk humbly with God. There are 
three ways to walk humbly with 
‘God. (1). By determined efforts. It 
is useless to rush into modern in- 
dustry regardless of God and reli- 
gion or merey and justice, for if one 
does the chances are one will never 
walk humbly with God. But if a 
man puts his mind on God and right- 
eousness he will come out strong and 
he will forge ahead. 
(2). We must remember the heart 
of the universe is moral. We can’t 
see God, but if we could only see, 
we would see Jesus here this morn- 
ing, to bring mankind to a know- 
ledge of God. Jesus Christ is work- 
ing in this world to give us strength 
to overcome obstacles and tempta- 
tions im modern industry. (3). 
To ac! nowledge Jesus Christ. If we 
try to enter the industrial life with- 
out Jesus Christ we will fail to walk 
humbly with God. We must have 
Faith in Jesus Christ because he is 
the way, the truth and the life. 
If we take Jesus Christ into our 
lives he will illumine and give light 
where there was darkness. The em- 
ployer and employee in all places in 
life are face to face with Christ. He 
is interested in you. He is working 
for the moral good of this universe. 
Listen to him and his’ word. 
After vou have recognized him God 
grant that the great Captain of in- 
dustry.’ shall say ‘‘Well done, good 
and faithful servant, enter thou into 
the joys of thy Lord’’. It is only a 
few years we stay here, others will 
enter into our walks of life. Let us 
see to it that we are faithful to our 
responsibilities, so that we may hear 
Christ sav when that last grand day 
comes, *‘ Well done, well done.”’

without having two or thrée wheels left over does not make a man 
a watch maker. 
If you want to have your watch properly repaired by men who

H. G. Nichols has an announce- 
ment in another column of the sell- 
ing out of his stock of dry goods and 
gents’ furnishings. Mr. Nichols 
bought out the store of George F. 
Allen several years ago and since the 
removal of the Old Corner Store he 
has been occupying a store in the 
Postoffice block. Last spring Mr. 
Nichols took a position as manager 
of a similar business on Mass. Ave., 
Boston, and his store here has been 
in charge of a manager. The Boston 
business has proved so successful 
and the opportunity being given Mr. 
Nichols to purchase he has decided 
to take the step there; consequently 
he is selling his business in Man- 
chester, and for the next month or 
so Manchester people will have the 
opportunity of buying goods such 
as are found at his store, at cost
