grief cannot restore to life the in
animate form of loved one--a life
long sorrow cannot undo the errors
! Of our youth,-bu they can and do
destroy vigor and take from life the
JOY that is our rightful heritage.
When we have arrived at an nuder-
standing Of life's lesson, which alas !.
is often when the day is far spent
we see more clearly than is at all
pleasant, that the greater part of our
time has been wasted in vain sorrow
ings and regrets. II is not yet too
late to clear away the trembling
structure we have erected and resolut-
ely place the stone--so long re-
jected--in the new foundation: what
peace will be ours when this stone is
put in its rightful place! No inscrip-
ton will be needed, TRUTH does
not have to be tagged
How rich is life because Of the rev.
Citations Of Truth; we have rolled
away the years Of weary struggle and
fruitless toll, and stand before the
Father eager and waiting to be guided
into life more abundant. Nothing can
stand in the way of realization for
what has been promised will find full
fillment. Do you ask how we have
attained to this state Of happiness ?
Through Thanksgiving or Praise
which is but another name for
Prayer.
You will remember that we are told
Whatsoever We desire when We pray,
believe that We receive (presont tense)
and we have already" 1t is very hard |
to keep this idea wildly in
our mind when using the ordinary |
form of prayer,-but if we will
change the form for that Of Praise, in
other words give thanks for as if al
ready received, we are able to pray
believing we have received" Praying
thus, and remembering the words of
the Apostle James; "He that waver-
eth is like wave Of the sea driven
with the wind and tossed. Let not that
man think that he shall receive any
thing OF the Lord"-we shall not
pray in vain. Even the sorrows that
seem to enguf US may be transmitted
into happiness as we'realize that "He
hath put new song in our mouths,
even praise unto our God, and with
clearer vision we shall be able to give
thanks with joyful faces.
Most Of us have travelled a pathway
made hard and stony by countless mil
lions who have trod it before us--be-
fore coming to the place of transfgur-
alton; we are very apt to look at the
generation following US with censure
or wonderment that they cannot or do
not take our word for these things
which mean so much to US. Is there
a reason for this indifference? What
shall we say? Have we made re-
ligion beautiful thing to them Have
we taught them from infancy up that
one must return thanks to the Giver
of Gifts in order not to miss the most |
wonderful gift that He can give
Have we? II not, let US lose no time
before making this thought live in the |
minds of our youth. Let us have not
one day only out of the three hundred |
sixty-fve, but every day Of our lives |
TO give thanks to God, the Giver Of
ALL GOOD. A. N. d.

"REMEMBER BELGIUM"

Cruel tales of population absolute
ly dependent upon charity and on thu
very verge Of starvation come to u.
from Belgium. The heart of America
has been touched by the sufferings Of
these poor people who were snatchec
from their prosperous days and hurl.
ed into days of great want and suf-
fering by the gross injustice of gov
eminent which felt itself justified in
the doing because it had the might 70
do, and we are sending as much and
as fast as we can, but the want con-
tinues and will continue and the suf-
fering will not be greatly abated for
a long time to come.
Germany refuses to do anything for
the people she has so grossly injured,
and ON whose rights she has trampled.
60 far as Germany is concerned, the
pelgians may starve, and perhaps she
would like to have them starve; it
would make it so much easier to in
corporate the kingdom into the empire
in the event of victory. And so to.
day Belgium lives on the charity Of
the world
Now is a good time to recall the
words Of the German chancellor de-
livered before the German Diet Au
gust last: "The French government
has notified Brussels that it would
respect Belgium neutrality as long as
the, adversary respected it. But we
know that France stood ready for an
invasion. France could wait; we
could not. A French invasion on our
flank and the lower Rhine might have
been disastrous. Thus we were forced
to ignore the rightful protests of the
Of Luxembourg and Bel
GUM. The injustice speak openly
the injustice we thereby commit we
will try to make good as soon as our
military aims have been attained"
The admitted injustice Germany
would try to make good. Food now
wouldn't make good the injustice, but
it might serve to make ultimate JUS
tice possible by keeping the Belgians
alive so that they could receive it on
some future day. Germany boasts Of
having stores of grain and foodstuffs
to last for over two years and in the
same breath boasts that she will be
victorious long before that time. Why
not give the surplus to the people to-
ward whom she has acted with in
justice-admitted injustice?
The chaneellor's words constituted
simply another German promise, and
the world today knows how much a
German promise is worth-not the
piece of paper on which it is written.
She promised to keep out Of Belgium,
but, having gone in, she promised to
make good the damage-and she per-
mits the Belgians to starve. At the
outbreak Of the Spanish-American
War the cry on the lips Of all Ameri-
cans was Remember the Maine" The
world may now cry Remember Bel
gium,' and surely it ought to be re-
membered until the curse Of Prussian
militarism is crushed into the ground
never again to raise its awful head

John C. Phelps of Pownal, died sud-
denly Monday morning last week
about 8 o'clock after an illness OF
about three hours duration. He retired
Saturday night, apparently in his
usual health, but was taken violently
i'll about 5 o'clock Monday morning.
Despite all efforts to relieve him, he
died just before s o'clock. An autopsy
was performed to ascertain the exact
cause of death and It was not known
whether heart disease or acute indI-
gestion was responsible. 1t was re-
ported that he ate a quantity Of fried
cabbage before going to bed and this
is thought to have contributed largely
the cause Of his death.
