stand covered with the cobwebs and
the accumulated dust and SCOT of
years, that the light of it comes
through them at all is exceedingly
dim. There are doors opening into
the psalm country, but from long
disuse the hinges have become rusty
and the bolts are hard to draw. We
should make the most of ourselves
and do with our might what our
hands find to do in brushing away
the cobwebs and rubbing off the dust
and so from these windows and the
light which comes from beyond the
morning stars will flow through them
and food the soul with glory.
In Touch with God
I'VE are none of us entirely cut off
from the great God. There is an
electric wire running from heaven to
earth. We may have never used it. but
if we turn the button il will flood
the soul with light. There is means
To telephone communication between
God in heaven and His children on
earth. He may have neglected it and
forgotten it. but If we take down the
receiver and speak into the mouth
piece we will discover that we are
still in communication with God.
Make the most of yourselves. see
that all the materials furnished in
the bundle of life are utilized. When
this is done human being becomes

and brains to make money and some
of the other patterns take neither.
New Pattern.
There is a new pattern coming
forward a the present time-the man
of genius and knowledge. This seems
TO be growing in popularity. The
forty immortals of the French aca-
edmy stand far higher in the world
than the generals of the French
army. The scholars of Germany are
more widely known than her land
granes-the fellows of the Royal so
ciety of England count for more in
the worlds estimation and in the
destiny of the empire than her proud
old aristocracy; the scholars of
America are better known and more
honored by intelligent people than
her millionaires.
"But we cannot get into any of
these patterns all the materials which
we find rolled up into the bundle of
life. In all of them there are ma
terials left over which we cannot ac-
count and do not know what to do
with. In this bundle there is just
enough material of which to make a
perfect character, no more, no less.
If we cannot get all into the pattern
we have made a mistake somewhere.
II. There are powers of body that
need To he developed. We are 10
make the most of this material
framework and i'm it's development we
are TO do with our might what our
hands find to do. But the body * not
that through which man cVcels. If
this was the chief thing. the animals
would distance nina race horse or
greyhound would leave him far be-
hind in running. The crack football
player can never hope to equal the
mule i'm kicking; the goose can beat
him i'm swimming. and i'm climbing
rope and performing agile tricks ON
the trapcze the man is Outclasscd by
the monkey.
Mind Is Superior.
-. Human superiority does not lie
i'm the body. but i'm the mind. I'm the
bundle of life these mental powers
come i'm embryo and need To be de-
veloped. All our schools. ali the OPP
positions we meet are intended to
bring out the powers of the mind.
-. In every human life there is a
package of moral facilities that need
to be cultivated and fitted into the
character. No human life is perfect
without these. Even the sublime
genius of a Bacon is dimmed because
of lack of moral principle. And a
Nero emperor though he was a
patron of learning is fairly loathed
for his want of conscience.
II. There is still another package
in the bundle of life that must be util-
lied before the character is perfect.
They are those embryo powers and
faculties which when developed give
us an outlook into eternity and bring
us into touch with God. There are
windows in the human soul that have
their outlook on the spiritual uni
