(Ma wa. e Los Angeles, Cale Dee. 18.—In this bookinaldng age, and particularly at the season when presses are turning out the largest of the ,year's literary output, the. preacher In this sermon gives emu timely advice as to the eilekiee of books, The text is Ecclesi- astes .*ii., 12, "Of making many books there is o end." - Wendell Philips for may years went up and down the land deliver- ing a lecture entitled "The Lost Arts," That lecture was in most re- spects a glorification of the past. If, however, we should halo the present and deliver a new lecture entitled "The Found Arts," almost without exceptionmost sit us would cata- logue the art of bookmaking as atnong the greatest of all rupdern accomplishmentsin our egotistic self -complacency many of us hai e. long supposed that the ancients lotew but little about books. We look up- on the groat English and American and French and German and luesian libraries as inoderri developments which would be just as ineomprehena sibie to our ancestors if they should suddenly- come to life as would be the telephone or the telegraph or the electric \car or the modern steam eu- gine. Thus, wisen some of us to -day hear the words of my text we are amazed. We say to each other, "What did . 1Cing Solomon mean when he staid, 'Of -making neanY books there eo end, aad much study is et weariness to the flesh.' Were there many books in King Solomon's time, or was he in prophetic vision hear- ing the bengings end the crashings of. the Modern twentieth century printing- press?" No, Kin" Solomon_ Was not hearing the bangingS and crashings of the• modern printing preSs: He was lie - toning, however, to the ecretehiugs of the scribes' pens. The bookmakers, were then. eery bupy everywhere. They must have been busy at that time, Homer, the greatest of all poets both living and dead, certainly lived and wrote not more than a few years after Solomon. died. Thucy- didest, Aristophaties, Demosthenes, Herodotus and Solon, whose writings are placed among the elassies of the ages, wrote their thoughts only afew hundred years after King Scailmon iived.i Five infildred years Odors Soltinion was born the Lord said to - Moss, "Write this for a -memorial in a book." That Make -was well quail- , eed ,for the task we have abundant probe 'Long before his day men had -written books, curabrous productions in baked chtie that as a boy in Egypt he had laboriously conned. The practice of writing, books -was continued, and the ancient authors had becterne so prolific that the au- thor of Ecclesiastes felt as Most of ue do in tryin.g to dig our way out from amid the avalanche of the lit- etie Lure Of the present day. "Of peak- ing many books there is no. end,'" the wimest of all melt dried 3,000 years 'ago. "Of -making many books there Is no end," we cry in the beginning of thie twentieth century. Myriads of books surround us. Books, books, books, books, books .everywhere—books in different . forms as newspapers, books as magazints, books meet:ding the history of na- tions, beaks as :biographies, books in fictitious story or in novel ferni, -books izt-rhythMiC Metre or as poet-, re-, books in sermonic and theologi- cal dissertation,. books as essays! There are millions and millions of therrt--good boeks and bad ',books. Now comes the practical question, What shall we do with these books? They come to us to assist or retard, - to reinforce or to enervate us in the struggle of life,- How shall we use them? How shall, we decide which are helpful end which are injurious? ' A man's library in the first place, should be like the sanctuary of his heart, into welch' he admits only hie best friends. It should have room for only a very few and a carefully, thosen collectiOn of books. These should be read arid re -road and read again. Like our dearest, friendsthey should enter into the very warp and • woof of • our being. Their thoughts should become our thoughts, and .their teaching ehould be, translated feta thearctiOne of our lives. They should not be mere per- sonalitieS with whom. We have only a speaking acquaintance. They should not be those half strangers to Whom we have to be re -introduced every tienet, We meet them . away from our homes. They should' become integral parts of our mental, moral ancl spir- itual being. We should be. so sure of their wisdom that we can accept them as our guides, to inspire us to right thinking, riglit speaking and right acting.

We have read how the great masters. a literature loved their books. Dr, Gelkie tells (US that "wean Henry Thomas Buckle, the distinguished historian, was dying his last words on earth were, 'ely Poor books; iny poor books!' " Wbeu Leibnitz died he died with one of his precious books in his hand. • When death mane to call Robert Southey he found him an old, white haired man, kissing and stroking the books he was too week to open and too blind to read, Cicero's greatest de- sire on earth was expres.sed in the wordie, "Oh, take all that 1 have, but leave me my booksi'' Could there be a better picture than that which Cunningham Geikle drew of, the love which these masters in literatere bore their books? Should that love be greater than the love Christians ought to bear the book of books which God gave to us to show us the way of info? If spiritual books are essential for our mental food, sh4eiuld 'wewhnooitlyfervilupon this book, wchis I want you to class boolcs among the best of friends and the worst of enemies. As ',viola the wouniled sol- dier of Xortune became Loyola the soldier of Christ by „ reading "The Lives of the Seines," so 1 want the good books to lift you and purify you and make you a gospel messen- ger among men. As bad books are the worst enemies of . mankind, I want to enlist your help in fightine them at every step. ,"If ever the devil had an agent on earth, 1 have been one," spate the dying author of a pernicious book. "Oh, that I could destroy that book!" I want you to /fight these evil books wherever you go. I want you to see that your library shelves are cleared . of -the "lepers:" I want yeti to see tbat your .children never are allowed to touch a, bad book. And furthermore I want you, by the help of God, to' scatter forth the copies of that one book which shall yet ti ample over all evil books, because it is the "teamed of the /Spirit," which shall never fall. God teach us One and all to pillow our heads upon the premises, and live as Christ would have us" live, because we love the "old book," . and -slip it in through t1i.e crack of the open door into ,that young man's hands.

And am 1 going beyond my right when 1 state that one of the reasons, -aiid the thief one, that you are not what you ought to be in Christian character is because every little while you 'allow yourself to revel in scenes of ;wickedness and riot conjured up by the imegination of some licentious author?. There you assoctate with characters of that writer's creation so vile that you would shrietk from a:intact with them if you weeintroduced eto t4m ie the flesh, but you are fascinatd by, the galmour with which they are clothed in his pages. ° do not mean by this that the books we admit to our hearts and homes must be limited • to distine-- tively religiouti books. We must read • for instruction' and • for entertain- ment, Meta:imp a .book is not dis- tinctly a religioils boot that is no reason why necessarily it should be debarred from coining to our reading chairs. Some books we should select because they are books a travel, some because they are the biograph- ies of men and Wornen who were the great leaders and makers of the world's history. The higher the mountain peak upon which you stand the wider the range of your horizon; We shoule select sonie books because they teach us the geographieal and geologeeal or aetronomical or atmos- pheric or biological construction •of the animal, /vegetable or mineral kingdom, whether theeeeptudies be in- side of the world or abovethe world ot upon the surface of the world. "In the beginning God created the havens and the earth, the sea and all that in them is." It is our duty to learn as much as possible about God's creations if we can do so with- out curtailing the work for which God created us. But though vee should select books of travel and of fiction, if the right kind of fiction, we should also select certain books as lifetinie companions because first and last and Averinsically they were writ- ten to treenh us the duties of the spiritual life. We should read them because they were written to teacb us how to love the Lord our God with all our- heart and soul and mind and strength, and our neighbor as, ourselves. "Limit my reading to books writ- ten,- for spiritual edification.". Says some one: "That is- unreasonable.
