article which Is reprinted from a ter.

until something better offers. This
Is exactly the reason that salaries are
low. just as long as teaching Ii made
q stepping stone 10 matrimony or to
some better position, the salaries
won't get much higher. Especially Is
this true In view Of the fact that the
Normal schools are turning out about
twice as many teachers IS can be
provided for and that thousands upon
thousands Of unframed teachers are
offering their services for what they
win bring.
1t is a fact. the worthy writer of
the article In question TO the contrary
Notwithstanding. that a surplus of ex.
cellently trained teachers are crowd.

from an indignant demand for higher

increasing The salaries OF teachers
throughout the United States Is to.
limit the number by raising still more
the standard OF qualification. In
scarcely a state In the union Is even

What Has Christianity to Offer?

We are Ewing in a day when emphasis
is placed upon values. Never IN the
history of this world was there such
emphasis placed upon value 4, real or un-
real, sound or unsound, as at the present
time. Religion enters into this general
competition and bases its claims upon
the value basis. What shall it profit
a man if he gain the whole world and
lose his own ~soul?" Or, What shall a
mar give in exchange fer his soul!
Great stress has been laid upon the advan'
tages offered by Christianity on the side
of a continued existence beyond the grave.
And that fact has always appealed with
more or less force to the human mind.
But Christianity offers values almost as
great for the life that now is. The cor
p~oration of the kingdom Of heaven pays
surrenders to Jesus Christ and becomes
an heir to the kingdom.
What Jesus lived, the Christian religion
teaches. We interpret the gospel
through Him. I feel, therefore. that !
am warranted iE proclaimine q gospel
that includes in It's scope the enjoy
ment of the present world to its fullest
extent. The world is ours. because Christ
is the centre of It. and every pure JOY,
every wholesome pleasure Is centred IN
Him. Christianity would not rob fol-
lowers of one note OF innocert laughter,
one ripple of sparkling merriment. one ray
of gladstone light, one drop, OF sweet hon
cydcw or one throb Of rightiul pleasure.
/ doubt if long faces and mournful voices
will make earth more heavenly or lives
more holy. All things are yours and
We are Christ's and Christ is Cots

Subjects OF Thought.

Life without toll would be without
triumph.
True greatness lies not in never falling,
but in rising every time we fall.
Poverty Of possession need not be dis
creditable; poverty of life always is. .
Trust not to appearances; the drum
which makes the most noise is filled with
wind. ..,
When you pay the price of success you
do not always get as much change as you
expected.
If you would not have a person. deceive
you, be careful not to let him know you
mistrust him.
There are two freedoms-the false, where
q man is free to do what he likes; the
true, where q man is free to do what he
ought.
Your destiny will not depend on any
chance of the moment; you are fixing 1T
yourself in Il choices and acts, in your
habits and life.
Let those who live under the sam roof
see that YOU have gladness in your heart,
and words OF gen:sl kindness ever flowing
from your lips.
1t must be borne in mind that our intel
lectual as well as orr moral nature is ever
liable to be powerfully affected by habits
previously formed.
