Those who are old have passed over
their course Of life. Ifthey have lived
well, they can rejoice in their attain
ments and achievements. Il they
have failed through neglect, careless
ness. Incidence OF sin, it is too late to
retrieve their losses. But young peO-

within their reach. Ii should fill
young hearts with enthusiasm 10 look

much Of possibility for them.

evidence that your neighbor is insin-
cere. lfthis were not true, then all
smart men would belong to one party
and all good men TO one church And
If all belonged to one party and one
