Jesus. The question is not, do / love
Him, but how much 90 I love Him? DO
| love HIM more than myself:
In conclusion we may state one gen
eral principle. Giving is the true test ;
it applies to all. "One thing thou
lackest;" some are lacking in one par
ticular, some in another; but the all
important question is, what determines
our action? love of self, or love of Christ?
If there is one thing which we love
and enjoy that is contrary TO self forget
fulness, it is contrary to Christ, rad
ically contrary to his spirit. One thing
we lack is the power to give up our
idols but the spirit that demands us to
give them up is all conclusive. The
man who forgets himself and lives for
others, lives in accordance with Christ S
teaching.

the close of the parade, the band halted
in front of the Wright House, and after
it had played number of patriotic airs,
