world famed structures will not avail him LOW he has other and better help at hand. The great architect has glorious plan for ,ach human life, and he has given to every ,ne the talents which, if rightly used, will work out this design. Environment, will do their best to mold, | and man must often combat these forces. Each choice made, each action performed, each word spoken, nay every thought, IS block which will inevitably find it's tway into some part of the edifice. It has been well said. Sow an act, and you reap habit; SOW habit, and you reap 8 character; SOW character, and you reap destiny. |
 History tells us that the architecture ot a period shows the tendency, the real thought of the age. The ''stern" Doric, the "graceful" Ionic, the "ornate" Corin- thian, the Gothic, the expression of minds inspired by solemn and devotional feelings, each breathes the spirit of it's time. So the inner life of the man is revealed by the greatest structure which he builds. Fur thermore, no painting, no polishing, no veneering will hide the defects of the poor workmanship.
 But why talk of defects, of failurea Bring to the work heart eager to learn: u6o Ab U1OCAS R0uoEOuS uASc1ASuu056, HUI mility, sincerity, united to faithfulness, patient perseverance, cheerful courtesy, prompt obedience; follow in every partic- ular the perfect model which God has placed before us; then, working under the guiding eye of the master workman, we cannot fail to build up noble character, the result of noble living.
