world opened his eyes in the manger
of Bethlehem Of Judea, there were less
than a score OF people who expected
His coming. While the eastern skies
were resplendant with the glory of a

Old Glory who Is not proud of hts

We can cancel our business Obliga-
tons. A clear receipt will be evidence
that the debt is paid. But when we
take an invoice of our obligations OF
death sorrow and pain upon which we
have erected the present efforts OF hu,
man endeavor and established our
present leadership among the nations
of the earth, we have a debt which we
can not pay in dollars and cents. We
must bring to the affairs Of our country
a citizenship that will command the re.
spect of every people on this earth.
The soldiers, by their efforts, left the
ideals, above home, life and death, and
set new standard of human devotion
to country. Are we worthy sons and
daughters of their flag? The answer
that we must make depends upon our
being ready to do our full duty, in the
hour Of our country's need. No test
has come as severe as the Civil war.
North and South One.
A few years ago President Mckinley
called for volunteers to uphold the
dignity of our flag in the harbor of
Havana That call was answered by
two hundred and sixty-fve thousand of
our young men, who offered their lives
to maintain our honor abroad. At that
time every state north and south stood
by the flag. The influence of united
people in few months drove Spanish
tyranny and oppression from Cuba and
Porto Rico and our victory gave us
new responsibilities in the Philippine
islands and the sons and daughters OF
our beloved land are today placing
wreathes of flowers on the graves of
the sons of Union and Confederate
dead.
The asset of which we should be the
most proud is that of national justice.
Our flag is an emblem of peace. yet 1t
should be sustained with honor and
dignity wherever it floats.
Mexco's Need of Schools.
Mexico Is suffering from her own ma
tional neglect. Internal strife has
brought our neighbor republic on the
verge of national bankruptcy with life
and rights to property uncertain, and
we have been compelled to demand
the protection of our citizens at the
point of the bayonet. If Mexico would
establish a system of education that
would put every boy and girl in the
school room, instead of putting her
youth in the ranks of revolution. a
great change would come to her peo-
pie in ten years. A free government
must live in the affections and intelli'
gence of the people. When the Grand
Army of the Republic marches to the

a quarter one of the greatest nations OF
the earth. If we should close the

forces that keep the fires of progress

extinguished If we as a people dis

fees offered by our soldiers. we would

though cyclone had struck It; he had come
home to dress to go somewhere.
Yesterday mother and the girls received a
hasty peck their cheeks, and In a minute the

True Way Of Life.

10. The application, w. 22-a4.
Jesus then proceeds to set before his
disciples the true way of life from
the positive side. just as in the illus
tration he had set before them the
negative side. Those who are living
in right relationships with God are
not to seek satisfaction in the things
of time and sense, those things of
which their father knows they have
need. and which he viii supply. Phil.
4:19. They are, however, to seek
his kingdom and to rest in confidence
in the knowledge that 1t is his pleas
ure to give to them that kingdom
w. 32). The way to get is to give.
Prov. 1924, 25. This is laying up
treasure In heaven. Every man is the
Judge of his own acts. II they be ac-
cording to divine standards, his de-
cision is wise, II not the Bible char
acterizes that man as fool. 1t Is
our sense OF values which determines
our wisdom.
~. The teaching. Jesus does not
begin In his dealings with the sub
jects OF his kingdom by making COM
pulsory division of their possessions.
In this lesson we can see the false
and the true method by which to
establish right social conditions.
This mans idea was to divide;
Christ's idea is expressed In the
words, "rell and give aims" The pas
sion of this man was to possess, the
passion of Christ was to give, Matt.

does not consist of the things pos
sessed. John 6:27. Things have a
