MISSIONARY WORK.

There are reasons, doubtless, why aid

There are and will be. however, numer-
Gus variations from the rule.
IT viii be asked what about children
who on reaching years OF maturity or
OF full understanding OF right AND
wrong. viii not follow the admonitions
OF their parents and teachers, but Will
persist IN evil doing. in spite OF all et-
forts for their guidance and reclama-
ton and their own experience as to
consequences? The answer Is. the
children are responsible for their own
doings. The principle has been revealed
that "al truth is Independent in the
sphere In which It is placed and all In.
telligence also It Is for this reason
that all mankind will at some period
be Judged according to their works
Responsibility springs from individual
agency The right and power Of choice
are inherent IN the soul. Environment
instruction, the influence Of other per-
sons, all have their effect upon tho in
dependent creature, But they do not
deprive him of his agency or the pow
er Of determining his own course. Re-
ribution Is founded on this quality.
The doctrine Of rewards aud punish
ments depends upon II. II would be
wrong to reward persons for good acts
and punish them for wickeduess, X
they had not the power of choice, ana
Of the will was not In itself superior TO
the influences which act upon IT. The
weak will may become strong by cul-
tlvatlon The power TO resist evil may
be increased by faith and prayer The
strength TO do right viii come with the
determination to conquer temptation
and overcome Inducements TO do wrong.
Pity should be extended to the weak
and aid to the fallen. Mercy is as oter-
nal as justice. They run parallel and
each has It's own sphere. Neither ls
permitted to rob the other. They are
seif-exlstent, everlasting principles.
They are fully developed In Deity and
need to be cultivated IN man. But after
all, each Individual soul viii be that
which It has made itself TO be, and in
the many mansions" OF the ALI
Father place will be found for every
ono to mingle and associate with its
own kind, and after justice has claimed
its own. no matter how long that may
take, sweet mercy VIII step forth IN the
spirit Of salvation.
The salvation Of souls Is made posi-
BILE by the redemption wrought out by
the Redeemer. But obedience by the
creature to divine law IL essential in
every instance. The Gospel OF Jesus
Christ Is the power Of God unto saliva
ton. II Is the only way. II Is an active
agency. II requires submission to right
and the practice Of holiness. Sin, which
Is the violation OF law, must be forsak-
en- and righteousness be practised. Par
ents cannot in this respect take the
place OF their children, nor VIII they be
punished for their children's uansgres-
slons, II they have set a proper exam
pie and have given right instruction
and training and have performed par
ent's part In all respects. Parents were

large numbers OF children growing NJ

warning voice, TO the Latter day Saints

their neglect. They should see 20 10
that they establish wholesome rules
for family government that they watch
over their children; that they keep
them from the streets at night; that
they inquire into the association OF their

around them restraining influence
