The address Wednesday evening was
on Personal Responsibility" by Rev
Iohn Barstow, MedIord Mass.
The measure OF your success in the
Christian Endeavor movement depends
upon how you grasp the thought OF indi'
vdual responsibility. Mr.. Webster said
"the greatest thought that ever came
into my mind is the measure OF my
responsibility to God. "
We love to talk of freedom. The spirit
of freedom was born in US; but there is a
truth we need TO I, member, where exists
the largest liberty there you find the
greatest responsibility. Responsibility
comes early When the child can make a
choice responsibility begins, 1t touches
every department of lite. What is oul
responsibility as Christian Endeavorers
1t is tremendous. We are rearing every

eternity. Every Christian Endeavorer il

81 do not mean that we are to cater to
the worlds whims or despise opinion. If
your heart is right you cannot be cross
and mean and selfish. You are person

men have of you.
All problems of the future are to be
met by the Christian Endeavorers Of
today. How? By each one of them
assuming their personal responsibility.
when in Rome we must do like the
Romans is a cowardly thing carried
into practice. There are wrongs in
social, industrial and political life that
must be righted before Gods kingdom

There is a still deeper problem. The
