What should be the aim of church

Without a moments hesitation and
with all seriousness he answered,
"Peace on earth, god will among

had been reached that interested him
deeply. for he spoke earnestly of his

Deepening International Sympathy
I ventured to remark that the ma
tons were more tolerant than for
meriy. Yes, but tolerance Is not
enough, we must get beyond toler-
ance to understanding and sympa-
thy. Formerly different bodies of
PROGRESSED Christians used to fight and
put each other to death on the slight
est pretext. Then they began to
tolerate each other or suffer them to
exist without acts OF violence, but
with no friendly spirit; now they are
coming to understand each other and

SOMEBODY'S SISTER"
ny MRS. HOWARD CHANDLER CHI RrsrY.

Don't you remember in the hng ago
How you carried her books through
the wind and snow
To the little white schoolhouse far
back on the hill,
How you taught her to skate on the
pond by the mill
Your little sister,
All! YOU do Tenaefa ber--theHgh the
years have flown
And your boy has sister of his own,
And you've taught him well to protect
her name
From every breath of shadow and
stain
His little sister.
And that boy OF yours. the other day.
He came to you in dread dismay
And whispered tale that made you
afraid;
stiil--she was merely a serving
maid
But--she was somebody's sis
ter.
For boys will be boys" LIS what you
thought,
And YOU didn't remind fsira OF what
he was taught,
because, after all, you only meant
lhat all his chivalry should be spent
On his own little sister,
So the world lies crushed meath its
weight OF woe.
And ever and always Ii will be so
TIL men shall learn to protect from
snares
Somebody's sister as well as theirs!

Saviour, let thy giories shine
In this darkened heart of mine:
Let thy light reveal the way,
Bring my soul to perfect day,
Let thy mercies reach to mo
In compassion fun and free;
Take my guilt Of sin away;
Let thy promise be my stay.
Let thy word new strength impart
To my faint and wav'ring heart;
BE thy counsel my delight:
Make me perfect in thy sight.
Take away my sinful pride:
Let thy love In me abide.
May thy word to me appeal
And the truth divine reveal!
May thy spirit ever dwell

Grace and truth on me bestow;
Quicken me thy will to know.

And the victory Is won.
Let my soul in triumph rise,

EASTER

EASTER
A mighty earthquake rent the tomb
In which the Savior lay:
An angel from the courts above
Rolled the great stone away;
The guards were smitten to the
ground
Like dead men prone they lay
Before the shinings angels face
At Joseph's tomb that day.
TWO sorrowing women from the town.
: With faltering steps drew near,
When they saw the angel there
Their hearts were filled with fear,
The angelic fern with brightness
crowned
Spake to them and said,
BE not afraid, ye tiEnid ones,
Your Lord is not now dead.
Come and behold the open tomb
In which your Master lay,
He Is not here but risen
The first fruits from the dead,
Lot they saw an empty tomb
The place where He had lain!
Heavenly comfort filled their brests.
And theirs was joy again.
Let us rejoice this Easter day
In Christ our risen Head,
Who conquered the Kink of terrors,
Bringing life to all the dead.
Well pay Him our tribute
I Who "a by Heaven and earth adored,
Our hearts and lowing service
Yea, the best we can afford.
