at the Passover, they remembered that
they had any leaven in their houses
they were required to go back and put
1t away before they could acceptably
offer the gift. Giving a new depth of
meaning to this, He said, not if they
have any i'll feeling in their hearts to
another but if the other had any ill
feeling to them, they must go and get

SUBSTANCE, NOT SHADOW.
So we see how Jesus insisted on the
substance instead of the shadow, on the
realities instead of vanlties, on the
spirit rather than the letter. on inward
rather than on outward worship. More
church membership with Him counts
for nothing The man who observes
vigorously the forms of worship, and
yet is guilty of conducting his business
on tricky lines and by questionable
practices, is not a follower of Jesus
Christ He is a libel instead of the
Bible he should be.
The one thing the Men and Religion
Movement stands for is reality in the
religion of men; it demands of men
that they be Christians in the sanest
sense seven days in every week. 1t de-
mands that men make Christ the King
of their lives, and that every relation
ship of life--business, social, family
and church--be conducted by the reali-
ties of Jesus Christ. BY that it de-
mands that every man and woman, boy
and girl, shall be given the best oppor-
tunity to know Jesus as Lord and Sa-
viour, and that anything and everything
that pulls down shall be done away
with.
There is but one way to live this real
haf DC. he n
his neighbor hath fulfilled the law"
Thanks be unto God, this love can be
shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy
Ghost, who is given unto us.

made me decide 10 write.
I am not church member, but can truthfully
say that ] have a reason for not being one, and
know that God sees aud understands.

black sheep OF a family when the services are
over and all the members begin 10 shake hands
Nobody shakes hands with me and | begin to

Now. why should there he such a difference?
l want TO tell you how q Chirstan( y treated

community during a protracted meeting. She
didn't mind talking to anybody she met with
can tell you After a weeks services a young
man TO whom she had been talking carried me
20 the haptizing. just as soon as we arrived
she talked 10 him fully five minutes before she
ever saw me then she held out her hand and
said. lyon are Christian3'f / told her r
wasn't what she would call one. She drew her
band back IL she had touched something poi
son. and walked away. During her talk to the
young man she told him he didn't realize how
easy II would be TO give the preacher his hand.
I'm afraid there are too many who think that
way,
Isn't everything lovely now? The dogwOod
trees look like patches Of snow among the pines
And the snOwballs and spirea are indescribabe
