EACH OTHER BETTER

Could we but draw back the curtains
That surround each others lives,
Bee the naked heart and spirit,
Know what spur the action gives
Often We would find 1t better,
Purer than we judged we would.
We would love each other better
II we only understood.
II we knew the cares and trials,
Knew the efforts all In vain,
And the bitter disappointment;
Understood the loss and gain:
Would the grim external roughness
Sc EN-. wonder just the same?
Would We help where now we hinder,
Would we pity where we blame?
All! we Judge each other harshIy
Knowing not life's hidden force;
Knowing not the fount of action
Is less turbid at It's source;
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good;
Oh! we'd love each other better

THE STORY OF SAMSON.

The Christian Endeavor lesson for
July p is found in Judges xvi, 20-30.
Samson is one of the sensational per-
sonages Of Bible history. He performed
many startling deeds Of strength and
Valor He slew a lion, the most danger
Gus of beasts. He paid a wedding prize
with the garments of thirty slain Phil
1stlnes. Single-handed he killed a thou
sand Philistines. and when surrounded
in GAIA he carried away it's immense
gates and escaped But the strong man
became weak He was captured by his
enemies, his eyes were put out and he
was compelled to grind the grain Of his
foes, like beast of the field What a
picture OF strong weak man-strong
TO the point Of the miraculous in one
moment, weak to the point of helpless
ness IN the next! Thus it is often with
US in our spiritual lives. At one time
we are strong in the line of duty-strong
against temptation, strong in the face of
obstacles; at another we are almost at
the point of helplessness We are over
come we are disgraced, we are humil
lated.

ANSWERS.


To questions of two weeks ago:
213.@The rule OF the road in the
United States is turn to the right" in
England 1t is the reverse The rule holds
in this country in the case where two
vehicles going in opposite directions meet.
When one vehicle overtakes another the
foremost gives way TO the left and the
other passes by on the "off side" and
when Il vehicle is crossing the direction
OF another ii keeps to the left and crosses
in its rear These two rules are the same
in this country and in England. and
why the rule concerning meeting vehicles
should have been changed 1t is impossible
to say. We find this point of difference
noted by all authorities but no reason
for 1t is ever suggested. Probably, as
II is easier to turn to the right than to
the left, 1t was adopted as the more
preferable custom in some of the early
colonies, and in due time became en-
bodied in local law, and thus was handed
down to later time.

Notable DAYS.

In the ninth chapter IL Genesis we
have a full statement Of the everlasting
covenant with Noah and his seed and all
creatures, of which brief mention is
made In the last two verses of the les
son, and also of the token of the COW
enant. the bow in the cloud. When we
see the bow we should remember that
God looks upon it, too, and will never
again bring a flood upon the earth But
see II. Peter, ILL.,, 7-13, and say if you
believe these things or are you, like the
people of Noah's time, among the scot
fers? The many who helped Noah to
build the ark and could have told all
about it persisted because they were not
in it. You may understand fully Gods
plan of redemption and be able to tell It
and teach it and perhaps be active In
some kind of so-called church work. but
if You are not in Christ by His blood
you are lost. The lesson teaches:
/ There is an end even to Gods pa
tient forbearance.c His Judgments will
not always wait.
2. If men perish. 1T tisR because of their
own folly. God would rather that thew
turn from evil and live
3. AS God provided the ark, so now
he has provided salvation through the
cross.
4. The rainbow and the cross are the
tokens of Gods covenants with men
and of his love for them.
