Clayton, selected as his subject The
Man OF joys.

made Him the Man Of Sorrows he said.
also furnished the capacity for great joy.
Even in His deepest grief He was sus-
tanned by the anticipated JOY which
would stream from His self-sacrifce on
the cross.
Because He was so devoted 10 human
ity and TO His Fathers Will He was
'anointed with the oil Of gladness above
all His fellows The tragic sorrows Of
Gethsemane and Golgotha were turned
into the lasting joy Of the Easter-mes-
sage and achievement"
There was no regret. no word 10 be

with the consciousness of guilt or IN
worthy behavior. There can be no perma-
rent peace in a breast tormented by an
uneasy conscience. but when conscience
IS al rest. JOY that flows ike a river
Ellis the heart"
In conclusion the pastor said:
Finally. He enjoyed being with the
crowd; He enjoyed His popularity with
men Not for the petty reason that they
praised Him, but because through their
affection for Him He was enabled TO do
them good without limit He enjoyed
His popularity because Il furthered His
work OF seif-giving 10 mankind"

Our Glorious Fourth.

OuF 1toftouS fouFtns
"Seems to be you are beginning your
preparations for the great and glorious
Fourth little early" observed the fat
clubman to his thin brother when the
latter took from his pocketbook what
appeared to be half dozen tiny flags.
Fourth of July nothing! I'm going
for weeks fishing"
"Where do the flags come in?"
''That's where the fish bite, | hope"
smiled the thin man. 'They are flies,
as carefully made as any grayhackle
or Silverton you ever cast"
"Do you dope it out that the Adiron-
dack trout have taken on a patriotic
streak?" asked the fat man, taking one
of the American flag novelties and ex-
aiming it. Whose idea?'
1.-THE first one," explained the owner
of the flies, was made for the British
Fly Fishers club and presented to Am
bassador Choate at dinner which the
club gave him. 1t was just conceit,
a pretty compliment, and no one
thought of really using the fly. Then
one of the members tried it on the Tay
and got rise after rise for the Amer
lean flag when the fish had scorned
everything else. If British trout will
bite simply out Of their regard for the
new hands-across -the-sea spirit, what
won't the Americans do for their own
emblem? Anyway, I'm going to give
them a try. and We'll hope they have
sense enough to follow the flag-swal-

VOIy
Spread your bunting: hang your wreaths
Let your banners be unfurled.
Shout until the welkin seethes
All about the deafened world
Get your old time speeches out,
Cheer until you split the skies,
But be careful while you spout
OF your eyes.
Drag the ancient cannon forth.
Load it to the muZzle's brim.
Let the east, south, west and north
Echo with Its blim- blam- blim!
Let the crackers hiss and spit,
Rocket STICKS come down kerplunk,
But be careful how you sit
On the punk.
Let the Roman candles flare
All the darkened heavens through.
Let the mortars fill the air
Full Of stars red, white and blue.
Let the fluent red lights flow,
Dimming both the moon and sun,
But be careful how you blow
Down your gun.
Roar, rejoice and speedily
Go through all the bag of tricks
With which now we glorify
Heroes of old seventy six,
But, no matter what your glee
Mid the roar of bursting bombs,
Careful, oh, most careful be
OF your thumbs!
Liberty blessing is
Worthy to be glorified,
Worthy of the fiery whiz
OF nation full of pride,
But it seems a bauble vain,
Empty, useless thing of chance,
When there follows in it's train
An ambulance!
