First Presbyterian church, before
large attendance. Roy. Dr.. Paden
spoke from the text 'Bchohld. l set be-
fore you an open door. Rev. III. 8. and
said in parti
st. Paul was a whole exploration
society of himself. His first reports OF
his expeditions We're made by word of
mouth Afterwards by letter. He
asked that the door Of faith be opened,
What he wanted was u good opening
and the courage TO go In and control
the situation. PromptneSs, determine
lion. courage and fidelity are worth
more than ability. Wholesome youth
wants to 80 out and assume response
bility You can remember the first
piece of money you earned; the first
opportunity that was given you 10 Sc
lect a suit OF clothes, You felt the
responsibility. The door was thrown
open and you stepped in. Any one
who can't find an opening in this old
world has himself or herself to blame.
Everywhere you VIII find openings I'm
the form of opportunities There Is
nothing so disastrous for young man
as TO be over placed. 10 undertake
to al place for which he is not fitted
by equipment. The fortunate opening
is the one you can step into and step
from,
THE proper thing to do is to master
your tasks as you go along. Accept
burdens as they came, they viii come
fast enough In life's experience. AL
ways be sure there is an opening some
where. Some times the doors will seem
to be shut Not So Knock and II
shall be opened, seek and We shall
md. Find and make use OF oppor-
tunities and the battle Is won. Life
ought 10 be a voyage of discovery. The
most valuable asset In life is TO find
something to do and do II, II will
avail but little II when the door IS
open your eyes are closed IN sleep
your mind dormant. Roads, how ever
closely hedged, are themselves OPEN
ings. SO long as you have q road You
have an opening. II YOU can't do all
you would like 10 do, do what you can.
There are openings that lead down
ward, lots of them, traps which led to
darkness.
Don't waste your vitality or cripple
your character by following human
Judgment. Listen to the will OF the
all wise Father and choose the doors
that open onward and upward. Walk
upward. You win walk more safely
than down ward The road 10 heaven is
up hill Youths lodgings and aspira-
tions are program OF his life.
Youth stands at the door OF the Fa-
theirs house. You have two-three
score years a whole life to live TO in
vost. Jesus said I am the way; II
any man enters In he will be saved
Young people OF the class OF 1907,
YOU through sacrifice It's stepping
mp or down You have been stepping
UP. You are better thap you We're
four years ago. You've heen stepping
up Keep stepping M In every way.
Keep the way open to the Fathers
house. no one can close that door
which IS llfc. indeed which Is love in
