A contemporary essayist, E. S. Martin,
has freshly expressed the place of this
belief in life.
Beliefs of great strength and influ-

responsive to surface questionings;
but accessible to the deep probings of
great crises. So it is likely to be with
the belief in our ability to survive.
death. 1t is the natural belief of peo-
pie of our race and religion. We are
born to it, and unless we wholly neg
lect it, or have taken thought long and
deeply to eradicate and reject it, we
live with it and die with it,
And it is an invaluable item of our
inheritance, an indispensable asset Of
our civilization. Men do not go along
through life just the same, whether
they believe in future life or not.
The perspective is different; the I'LL
who counts himself immortal, or able
to attain Immortality, is bound to have
a larger patience with earth, some
what mitigated appetite for earthly
valuables. He is bound to care little
less for the things he must leave be-
hind and more for what he may take
with him.
And what is true of man is true
of race or a civilization. 1t is the
spiritual substance that is really
tough, and the race in which spiritual
ity most persists and best tempers the
ardors of acQuisitiveness and ambition
is the race of greatest promise, not on

those of earth. What makes Christian

it puts spiritual things before materi-

world and to clear and soften and iusti-.

The mood of these men blinded their

truth through all sorts of weather was
not theirs. Only rare souls have this
capacity. AS | write these lines sit

The Talk BY the Way.
For the stranger who joined them
in their walk, in the easy, familiar and
democratic fashion of the plain peo-
pie. was none other than the risen
Christ himself, though they knew it
not. He slipped naturally into the
talk, with few searching questions,
and they told him all--their hopes,
the tragedy of the crucif1xion, their
dependency, and the unsettling ru-
mors concerning those who had been
early at the grave, which they found
empty.
Then, to their amazement, and Joy,
this new-found companion began to
widen their knowledge by showing
from the Old Testament that it was
thus the Messiah should die and rise
again. These men belonged to the
large company of Christians unfamiliar
with the study OF the Bible. Like
many others, they were discussing the
profundit1es of religion in ignorance

Two. men are walking with lowered
heads toward the west. Their feet are
heavy, as If weighted. Detection is
written in their face, their attitude,
their tones. The fresh gray of the
olive orchards by the roadside has no
beauty for them. They are blind to
the effulgence of the spring flowers
which carpet Judea's hills. A mood
of depression Is upon them, like a
black cloud.
Behind them lies the city of David,
where they had expected to see, at this
contamination of the hopes of the ma
ton. the assumption of Nngly power

must go back to Emmaus, their village

It was like the ride home from the
