every one else has an easier calling

Of doing your days work we'll Exer-
else neighborliness. feel kindly to your
brother man. show an interest In his
success. live and let live. Find pleas
ure in life and interest IN others. 1t Is
our selfishnesS that accounts for much

The Life to Live.
What life Is has been question
which sages have asked and which
many wise men have failed 10 answer
The origin OF life with many is still
more mysterious. The only true an
swer. after all. is that life Is the gift
Of God. Trace IT'S origin as far back
as you viii, you must In the end come
to frst Of all cause and there find
God. who created the heavens and the
earth and every living creature OF the
earth. There is no question. therefore
that the life we should live Is the life
that is In accordance with God or as
God would have Us live It. Some live
solely for the pleasure which they can
get ont OF life. but that is not the beau
tiful life God would have Us live. 9th
ers seek in life fame, knowledge. cul-
ture. all Of which have place in every
good Hfe and yet IN themselves fail I'd
make a beautifully rounded life. Once
the blessed Lord enters mans soul
be not only changes 1t from shame
TO glory. but that glory viii reveal It.
