In prominent German scientific jour
nal called Prometheus occurs the following
notable admission: To-day materialism is
already a conquered standpoint. The ex-
clusiveism so common in modern scien-

since been recognized that natural science,
philosophy and religious emotion can well

of ignoring a realm beyond the limits OF
science, it is distinctly accepted"

contended, Tor science is grand in its place.
But its place is not as a substitute for God
and the bible and the soul.

into the light? All, let us go to God and
ask Him TO keep US from secret SINS. Go
to Him and ask Him to root out of you
the mischiefs that you do not know are
there. Live humbly and enthusiastically,
and feel that!your strength is this: "Hold
Thou me up, and shall be saved"

Do not believe those who too lightly say
nothing succeeds like success. Effort,
honest, manful, humble effort, succeeds by
its reflected action, especially in youth,
better than success, which, indeed, too
easily won and too early gained not sell
