C-STANDS for seriousness. Life is
an earnest, essential. vital affair
~ Many men act as though they had
many lives and could afford to waste
one. We have only one life, and II We
make a failure of that one life II
means the failure of all To make
success of your life, act as though the
world had waited for your coming and
expected you to perform grand part
in it.
U-stands for uprightness- Unprin-
cipled men win success. Swindlers roll
in wealth. Tricksters are crowned
with public office and scoundrels cum
ningly manage to keep out Of the
clutches Of the police This democrat
izing puzzle is a fearful temptation
before which come young men are not
strong enough to stand. This is true:
great trusts may be sought by scoun-
drels who sometimes find them, but
great trusts never seek unprincipled
men and the services of upright men
are always sought, and they are not
found in shoals, but in clear springs
Though a crooked age, yet men are
asking ''is he honest? 81 Let man get
the reputation for uprightness in his
dealings and he will be sought, while
ter what his other merits are. Will
finally find that honest men will have
nothing to do with him. The world is
always on the lookout for men who
will stand for the right. though the
heavens fall. Capital is not counted
by what man has. but by what he is.
Character is capital Honor is success.
Stained success is failure.

We focus our attention upon one OF the

this wonderful book IL associated In pub
lie thought with the incident told therein
Of the great fishes part In providing
transportation and safety IN the storm for

Of Gods love for humanity is overlooked.
It is a tragedy Of literature that the most
sublime revelation Of God in the Old Tesla
ment which Is recorded in Jonah, should
be lost in studying the details of the
story.
II We turn aside to consider the various
questions that have arisen from the study
Of this little book to perplex the earnest
scholar and reverent scientist, we too will
fail to behold its great truth that it 80
wildly reveals, Of how God granted re-
pentanoe and life to the genti1es Of Nine
veh. The narrative. for it is not book
Of prophetic discourses, contains spirit
ual revelation OF Gods attitude toward
the nations of the earth that gives 1t
place among the works of the prophets.
Its central figure is Jonah, whose preach
ing during the reign of Jerehoam II en-
abled the latter to restore the ancient
boundaries and prestige of Israel. The
prophetic statesman Is reputed to have
been the son Of the widow of Zarephath.
who cared for Elijah in his extremity. His
father was Amittai. Tradition tell. US
that Jonah ministered unto Elisha. whom
he succeeded, and that he was the
prophet who anointed Jehu.

What effect does repentance, fasting

Are Gods rewards and penalties ever

How would you distinguish between
