thoughts is to do yourself more injury

enemy to do you.-Mason.

We build our strong and solid nests;
But where We seek to dwell for aye
We scarce take heed a stone to lay.

three kinds: All they have had, all
they have now. and all they expect to

next year, is organized by all the mis-

organizations. There is to be an
Eskimo village, Japanese temple and
garden, an African village, an Arab

will be an interesting representation of
the Home Missions in Alaska, Cuba,

Boston will be the initial performance
in movement that Is destined to

Only better members can make a

of the Endeavorers. Where the young

1t is not possible for me nor angels
to take a more solemn pledge than
that signed by every active member of
the Christian Endeavor Society-to
do whatever he would like to have me
do" When we come to surround the
glorious throne of God, and with I'M
limited powers to serve him without
ceasing, we shall not be able to do
one lot more than is comprehended in
the sacred Christian Endeavor vow.
The awfulness of this pledge that we
have taken should be felt by all of US.
Heaven sets small value on mobs.
Not quantity but quality is the eternal
standard. Until we cease our needless
haste, and devote our attention to
making better members we cannot
have an ideal society. 1t is not the
society with the longest roll that most
honors the Master, but the one whose
members are living closest to him.

Whenever the affairs of the society
lag, it is because there is a reason for
it, and the reason can be discovered.
Do not rest satisfied until you have
discovered it. If, for example. your
prayer meetings are spoiled by the
mischief or the careless indifference of
sons. Look deeper. Perhaps the meet

make them so. Perhaps the society is
not in sympathetic, vital touch with

The young peoples society is a
training school. Its value lies not so
much in the present work that it ac-
complishes as in the preparation that
it gives for the service in future years.
Christian Endeavor is designed to
make useful church members. If it
does that it succeeds in its mission.

In conclusion let me remind YOU
how it has come to pass that so intel
Elligent, quick-witted and brilliant a,
people as the Irish have never been
caught and captured by the glare of
pseudo-theology or the glamor of
false philosophers. Yes, let me tell
YOU why it is that this fascinating

has never welcomed to its schools or
even offered cold shelter, to Jansen
ism or Kantianism, or Marxianism or
Nietzscheism: let me further tell YOU
why it is that no form of modernism
or mundanism has ever succeeded in
finding foothold on Erin's sacred soil.
The reason is not far to seek. If Ire
land today is the most Catholic land in
the civilized world, if Dublin of all
Catholic capitals in Christendom is the
most intensely Catholic, the secret of
this her glorious privilege is an easy
matter to reveal. Ireland today is
what she is because her sons and
daughters say their prayers and 20 to
the sacraments. Let us go forth, re-
solved to do likewise, and we, too. like
them, will remain unspoiled by mod
ernlty' "unspotted from the world"
The antidote for modern, up-to-date
life is the Eucharist.
