It WIS characteristic of the general

their bruised heads being looked at as
a secondary matter.
The unfortunates numbered two, and
they had told the fning and eXultant

Wallace was of not much more than

If it became God to adopt this plan
TO save us, who are we to question its
wisdom or necessity? Who are we to
hesitate in bringing our convictions
and conduct into harmony with his
great purpose? And if the object God
had was to bring sons to glory should
we not earnestly inquire if we are
sons? 1t is said of Jesus Christ in

Christ's Dedication.

Our captain was dedicated to his
work through sufferings, for that is
the meaning of perfect" in the text.
1t was often used among the heather
to signify the initiation of a man into
the mysteries of their religion in order
to become a leader OF others in the
same religion Sometimes these rites
were accompanied by much pain. and
the inspired writer employs the figure
to illustrate the sufferings of our
Lord. These sufferings were of two
kinds. His life sufferings and his
death sufferings. In life he suffered
for righteousness sake, that is through
sympathy with man, but great as this
was. il was very different from his
death sufferings These we're the hid
ing of his Fathers face and the awful
darkness Of Calvary when he bore
our guilt upon the accursed tree. To
some extent we may sympathize with
him in his life suferings. but who
can know anything Of his death suffer
lngs? AS one says, man can paint
the cursed tree. but who can paint
the curse OF lNe LOiQ llldI Hldue IL ~
Man may describe the soldiers spear,
but not the cup of wrath he drained
to the last drop"
And how the mystery deepens as we
read that it became God to do this.
It was not only right and proper, but
It behooyed him to employ this meth
I'd in bringing many sons into glory.
He could not do differently and accom-
plish it. because of the desert of sin
and the unchangeableness of his JUS
tice. He might have suffered all men
to perish in their sins, but once hav-
ing, In love, determined to redeem
them there was no other way In
/ which il could be righteOusly carried
out. Truth failed, and as Isaiah says:
! The Lord saw it, and is displeased

in its comment on the rebuilding of
the streets on Clarke's Island last
week. Then the street between the
main and the slough bridges, had
only been improved; since then the
street from the high bridge has been
put in excellent condition.
Those who were coming to Wausau
by automobiles or going south the
past week were somewhat startled
when reaching the creek, at Cedar,
to find that new bridge was
being built over it. This necess-
itated quite a long ride east, into the

south of the creek.
