The Call to Fellowship.

The call to fellowship is vital today
for religious thought and life. Enter
upon a life of companionship with
Jesus and great will be the surprises.
You have sought long in thcOlogies

his personality compels you to acknowl-

judging Moral Worth.

A mans moral worth is not to be
judged merely by the evil he refrains
from doing, but by the amount Of
temptation he overcomes. He is not to
be judged by his victories alone, but
also by his defeats. The virtue of the
victory depends upon the nature of the
conflict and the odds overcome.-Rey.

to bring it UP TO the level OF the female. Only
among the higher species did the male attain to
