When st. Paul had learned that les
son he was at an altitude from which
the prosr<et Is magnificent.
AS h<looked down on the restless
world FeethIng with avarice and envy
and 1fishness. It was with inexpres-
81 pity that men will work SO hard
and so long to get so little at last. He
could be happy In surroundings which
make most OF us miserable He had so
mastered the true philosophy of life
that he did not want what he knew he
could not have. He could be more con-
tent with nothing than many of us
could be with everything. His source
of peace was In his own heart, not In
his environment. He was the proud
possessor OF faith that could not bs
shaken. OF thoughts which are worth
more than a mine Of gold. and he lived
not In world of mans making, which
ever heaves and tosses like the ocean

is consistent with a noble ambition,
with heroic deeds and with a knightly
endeavor to wrest the victory from adj

enjoy when honestly won.
Let me illustrate what / mean by

that though his ultimate object Is to
reach the summit, he should enjoy the
prospect at every step. If he worries
because he is not already at the top
and envies his fellow travellers whom he
sees on a higher level, his ascent Is a
constant and painful effort. He spoils
the present by thinking overmuch of
the future. His business is to do the
best he can and to get as much pleas
gre out OF the journey as possible. To
ruin the satisfaction of having accom-
plshed something. however little it
may be. by the bitter thought that his
path has peculiar obstacles Is neither
good philosophy nor good sense. Let
each day bring its own comfort, let him
forget the more favored, and find hap

God as well as his. If you can look on
your little corner. with its sterile soil,
as part of His vineyard. and on your
self as a steward from whom much will
