Bradiey preached f third sermon in the special â€" Iukten‘t Caiich on Susder mon Andrew‘s Church on evenâ€" ing. His subject was ‘"Sports and Betting,‘‘ and the text was taken from 1st Corinthians 9‘24, ‘"Know ye not that they which run in & race, run all, but one receiveth the prize," â€" ard _ Romans 12:17, "Proâ€" vide things honest and in the sight of. all men.‘" Mr. Bradley said in part: I do not know whether the Aposâ€" tle Paul ever ran in a race or no%, but sports had made a strong im pression on the mind, as we see in the many allusions to them in his illustration of divine truth. I do not know whether he "fought with beasts at Ephesus‘‘ or not, but this I do know, if he did, the beast came out second best. Paul was the type of a manly man, and belioved in a sound mind in a sound body. Manly sports I desire beartily to commend, and betting I wish to as strongly reproâ€" bate. Every manly sport that.takes you out into the pure air, and helpsâ€" to build up your bodily powers, Iâ€" wish to commend, only let every game be played honorably. Whatever it may be, whether crokinole or football, scorn to do anything unmanly, . orf take an unfair advantage of your opâ€" poment, _ be honorable in all your sports, _ and if defeated take your beating like a man. _ sB The man who loses on a bet is spending his money in a dishonest and immoral way. He gets nothing for it, accomplishes nothing with it, it is a shear waste, serving no good purpose. No man has a right to spend money in that way. Money is stored personality. It‘s the price of life. To waste it is like drawing life blood and flirging it upon the ground. Often the money that is spent is not a man‘s own. I know a man in Toronto who has to mortâ€" gage his property to pay the debts of his son, who had lost heavily in betting. He had used the money of the company that employed him. This is filial treason. . :; mmvmw:nr'“""' be| the tracks of the Grand Trunk by er | last week on mvwsm e :.n-. Engine No. 080, -g 5.;'3‘ was . cfl'lldcll bm» x and caboose. s But, if it is immoral to lose money by betting, to make momey by betâ€" ting is equally so. ‘There are only two ways we car get money honestâ€" ly, first, when we receive it as & present, and second, when we give an equivalent for it. Betting and gambling are demoralâ€" izing, debasing, degrading, they deâ€" stroy the knightly instincts in man. When President Garfield‘s life hung in the balance, gamblers bet upon the issue of his life or death. When the doctor arrived they refused to let him bleed him on the plea that it would affect the fairness of the bet Supporting the team by betting on it.â€"Betting is supposed to be. . the life of sport. Nothing is further from the mark. Nothing brings true sport into such disrepute in the es= timation of the sane, upright, honest minds than the gambling that @câ€" companies it. The man who bets on sports is not the true spottsâ€" man. He loves sports for the money he can make out of it, and not for sport â€" itself. Speaking from the standpoint of the player who entets the lists to play for the honor of his college or town, such a young man is worthy of consideratior. To put uwp money on the players is to reduce them to the level of the fighting cock, the bull terrier, the prize fighter. When men stake money they are willing to do disâ€" honerable things to shape the reâ€" sults so that they will win. Betting is therefore the deadly foe of sport. No money stake was allowed to corâ€" rupt the conflicts or debase the purâ€" ity of the sports of Greece. When Matodonius, the Persian before the battle of Salamis, heard of the, sports of Greece, ‘"‘Heavens,‘" he exâ€" claimed, ‘"they have brought us to fight against men who strive not for money, but for honot.‘" Betting enamors men of the idea of getting something for nothing. Here the trading stamp business was soundly condemned as fostering the same idea. The authority of the )| jurist, W. the philosopher, tal io Sov the hnonlllqm and quoted to degrading tendency of betting. o: | men were urged to be honest, upright. To walk with God â€" and make their lives tell for righteousâ€" t|ness in this world. _ _ __ .. ___ bews _ ‘The subject for next Sabbath eveâ€" ning will be: Living the manly life.
