THE WORLD GODS
PRIMARY SCHOOL
Rev. Johnston, Of PhiIadeI-

in SiIVeTbrOOk Church

This world is Gods primary school,
said the Rev. c. b. Johnston, Of the
Philadelphia Conference. during the
course of his sermon in Silverbroo< NJ.
E. Church yesterday morning. His
text was Matthew l6: "a; "Then said
Jesus unto His disciples If any man
viii come after me- let him deny HIM
self. and take up his cross and follow
me-"
Mr.. Johnston said to the congrega-
ton: you and 1 are the ignorant
children i'm Gods school and when He
gives us hard tasks we must perform
them We may not understand every
thing about Heaven and earth. but we
must have hearts that will trust Him.
1t was not until near the end that
Christ tcld His disciples In natter
of-fact- way that He was to meet
death on the cross, He did not tell
of this before in such plain terms be-
cause he had concern for their weak
ness. His utterances previously on
this subject had been like so many
riddles"
The minister said that Peter, acting
as spokesman for the disciples. refer
ring TO the coming crucihxion, said:
Lord this shall not be unto Thee.
/ Jesus in substance said IL must be and
then uttered the words of the text.
Or. Johnson stated that the self
denial spoken OF I'm the text was to
deny ourselves anything that was
WRONG no matter how pleasant. We
might not have 70 go through fro like
somo of the martyrs OF old but ",

EARTHWoRMS.
They Can Move About only When the
Ground Is Damp.

ney Ian Move ABOUT ONlJ Wuch Anc
Ground Is Damp.
Ever since Darwin wrote his remark
able book on earthworms the general
public has taken an interest in these
lowly creatures. Everybody has OBJ
served thousands Of them on the ce-
ment walks during and after n rain,
but the true'cause Of these remarkable
wanderings is not often written about.
The fact is that earthworms can move
about only when the ground and the
grass are wet. The truth Of this is cas-
lily shown by placing an earthworm on
some dry sand. when the dry grains
win stick to its Shiny skin and make It
helpless.
All living creatures are endowed
with the instinct TO move and spread
over the earth. Human beings, higher
animals and birds prefer to move
about in fair weather. To the earth
worm aud other lowly creatures, like
frogs. salamanders, slugs and land
snails, rainy days are the only fair
days for travelling When the sun
comes out and dries the roads and the
meadows. they withdraw into their
hiding places. As earthworms cannot
see clearly. they crawl about in an
aimless sort of way. If they happen to
get ON a board or cement walk, when
the sky clears they soon die and shrivel
up.
When a dry season or winter ap
prOaches. the earthwOrms burrOw deep
er into the ground. At depth varying
from six inches TO two feet each worm
coils up into a little ball. BY aid OF
secreted slime it makes a case Of dir
round itself, and IN this state It re
mains dormant until abundant rains oI
the spring thaws call it back TO a more
