the more fully recognized the need Of
personal adaptation to the circum-l
stances in each case and would con-
form himself and his acts to the re-
quirements of the time. This counsel
is no warrant for unreasoning and I'M
seasonabIe zeal. 1t does not counte-
nance the substitution of persistence
for responsiveness.
1t requires as much knowledge to
discern when not to do a thing as to,
discover when to do it.
To attack when there Is no reasona4
Die expectation of success is poor STRAIT
egy in religion as we'll as in war; The
course Of wisdom is to be ever pre-
pared to attack and then, whether it is
the recognized season or not, strike for
victory when there is the right chance
There are many Epworth League
members and not few Christians of
HloIe advanced years and experience
who will speak in meeting, but never
utter word to any individual regard
ing his salvation outside the walls of
the prayer room, They never find just
the right opportunity. The trouble is
not that conversation with their un-
saved friends would be unreasonable
or resented. Oftentimes n these very
friends are hungry for some words of
Christian counsel and wonderfully
nothing is ever said t0 fhoDo
ally if Christ is so precious.
The trouble is that the alert spirit
is lacking in the disciple of Christ and
not the opportunity to exercise it.
