A rribut. From M.nehuri..

Rev. A. v. Bryan, writing from Port
Arthur. Manchuria, about the value Of
Christian Endeavor, said:
when l think Of the great help
Christian Endeavor has been to the
church at large wonder that any one,
especially the pastors. can criticize It
It seems to me that the organization
was begun at just the right time.
When l was boy there was no place
In the church for those who were not
born In that church. They were set
aside By the older element and told to
wait Your organization gave a chance
to those who otherwise would have
been lost to the church. And l recog.
nize the great change that has come
over the church when / sec the
younger generation coming out to the
foreign field and see the Christian nur-
ture and culture they have, which
place them far ahead Of what / was
at the same time Of HE. In Japan
there are military academies that are
taking young boys and training them
for future military service. 1t must
b so as long as this country is a mn.
itary power. You are preparing the
future church army, and any pastos
who Is interested, as he should be, In
the spread Of the church ought to help
you in any way he can. II criticisms
are made Of your organization. there
are many who find fault with the
churches. but the only thing to DO h
10 recognize that neither is perfect,
but always striving for better thinss.

accept His plan and not our own.

Over and over again,
No matter how hard work,
] always fine some task undone,
Some duty dare not shirk,
must rise ere the dawn Of day
Is tinged with q crimson stain;
/ must work with win till night falls gray,
Over and over again.
Over and over again,
mush wash and scrub and bake;
Over and over again,
The beds must neatly make;
must mend and patch and sew,
Though weary or Ill with pain,
/ must keep at my work till the sun sinks low
Over and over again.
Over and over again,
long for day OF ease,
To speed away on my trusty wheel,
Or swing meath shady trees;
To wander away through sun kissed fields
And gather the wiidHowers bright:
Or to steal away TO some quiet nook,
which can read and write.
Over and over again,
The tasks have to do
Are all for home and loved ones,
And friends the heart holds true;
SO I'll work away the whole day long,
And never a word complain;
But brighten the day with a sunshine song,
Over and over again.
