ton and the more or less separate ends
to which the different denominations
seem TO be working have the tendency
Of engendering doubts in the minds Of
men ana women. as 10 the reality Of the
facts Of religion The speaker stated
that IN every community there can be
found a great number Of upright, intel

from an churches. and that sectarian
division Is the sole reason why Chris
tianty' has been soandalized and dis
credited IN their eyes.
Anyone who has followed the relig-
lous currents In the world knows that
this Is true. He Is aware that the
wrangllng about words, the anathemas,

the Prophet Of this dispensation was

for this should not be difficult to UNI

fact that the"dlvlslon"with all rs conse-

IS LIFE NOTHING ?

An exchange, speaking Of the value
Of human life. takes occasion to OBJ
serve;
TT Is worth remembering that the
world Is but an atom. that n century
Is an indniteslmal space of time ana
that the llfe Of one human being Is
nothing. and he no more than ny or
ant. The death Of one man may mean
a great deal to his relatives and friends,
but II Is nothing to the world, much
less 10 the universe"
Further on, in the same article, the
writer says 1T Is the duty Of every
man and woman 70 make the most Of
their lives, to develop themselves to
the utmost, holding 70 life in spite OF
all difficulties. Life Is nothing" vet
It is our duty 80 make the most Of
lt'-make the most Of nothing, and
hold on to nothing" in spite Of all
difficulties"
That sounds absurd, but II Is actual
ly the essence Of a philosophy that re-
lies on force and matter, for an ex-
PLANTATION Of the origin OF the universe,
In which, Of course. there is no room
for an Intelligent designing Creator.
How different is this cherries view
10 that Of the Scriptures, and, In fact,
Of both ancient and modern revelations
on that subject II human beings dare
to accept the teachings OF the Master
and look up TO the Infinite as to their
Father, their lives cannot be so insight
hcant as some modern philosophers
have thought
a king may have many palaces with
rooms furnished in the most elegant
styles, ne may have thousands Of
servants and millions OF subjects: but
his children are still the most precious
Of his possessions. The child can never
be insignificant in the Fathers house
Its life can never be as nothing
Christian philosophy rests on the
fact that human beings are children in
the house Of the Almighty Hence the
revelation given through the Prophet
Joseph Smith In 1898; "Renounce wal
and proclaim peace, and seek diligently
to turn the hearts Of the children e
their fathers. and the hearts Of the
fathers 10 the children" The relation.
