Who Is My Neighbor?

Exodus 20:12-.l- September IA.
Thou shalt love thy neighbor
as thyself. Luke 1927.
The Ten Commandments delivered TO
Moses Were written upon two stone tab
let's. One bore the first four command
ments. appcrtaining to God the other,
the remaining six, appertaining to hui
manity. The essence of these last six
was expressed in Jesus words, Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.v
Whoever loves his neighbor will not In
tentionally injure him in act, word or
thought. Hence, love expresses the full
measure of the requirements of the law.
(Romans 131O) Love is a tliberty to do
more than the law requires. but cannot
do less
While only Christians are credited by
the Lord with fulfilling the requirements
of the law-because of the allowa nee
made for their Weaknesses on account cf
their relationship with Christ-neverthe-
less, the Jews and many others have oh
tanned partial blessings in proportion as
they have endeavored to fulfill the law.
Hence it is wise and proper always to lift
high the divine standards.
Honor Father and Mother
All parents are deserving of considera-
ton from their children. Yet, of course.
the kind or degree of respect must de-
pend upon the character of the parent 10

ents rank and rampant everywhere, it
may seem hard saying, bur we believe

is due to the parent or the guardian.
The child may have been i'll born. Dis
content and rebellion in the mind OF the
mother during the period of CESSATION
may have so marked the child before It's
birth Athat no amount of training may
ever fully recover 1t. In such a case. the
parents may well be patient and long
suffering with such unhappy, disobedient
dispositions in their children
Perhaps the parents were only partially
to blame. Perhaps their minister did not
preach the laws of God. their human op-
Grafton and the penalties of their viola
ton, but gave iiowery essays and anec-
dotes containing neither food for the spir-
itual nature nor assistance in understand
ing and combating the weaknesses of the
human nature. Perhaps the fault was
not wholly the mothers. Perhaps the
father forgot that he, too. had duty TO-
ward his offspring, chiefly served BY a.

SOCIETY AND HOME TOPICS FOR WOMEN

sisting his wife to thoughts of kindness
gentleness. nobility, etc.
The conscientious parent has a wonder
full task to train the perverted child in
the nurture and admonition of the Lord.
Those who strive faithfully in this direc-
ton cannot be too much appreciated and
encouraged. More and more should we
think of esteeming the parents of every
Noble man and woman of our acquain-
tance. AMI. If strangers should appreciate
the parents, much more should the child.
The Effect of Sunday Schools
A modern writ II of force and influence
holds that Sunday schools while accom-
plishing good In one direction, may have
done considerable harm in another-hy
awakening the respect of children for
their parents, and by releasing parents
from an appreciation of their responsible
ties toward their children. The parents
are. in the divine arrangement, .he
priests of Cod particularly in respect to
their children.
To whatever extent parents shirk this
responsibility or ignore this honor their
Influence over the child is lost. One hour 5
time per week in a Sunday school class
cannot take the place of Il continual
parental supervision
Statistics show that boys from 16 to 20
years old constitute about one-third Of
all the dangerous criminals, and that
their proportionate number IS Increasing.
Hence all benevolent people should be
or the alert for the right training of the
rising generation. All should especially
cooperate with the divine command by
urging and encouraging parental author
ity and obedience thereto.
