Hilarious Purse.

All giving should not only be free. but
joyful. The Lord loveth a cheerful
giver." Biblical scholars tell US that the
original word here rendered cheerful lit
orally means hilarious.
Is there any greater joy than that
which giving produces in a pure and
generous heart?
1T is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive." It is better to the purse, better
to the heart. better to the life of the
giver. than the gift can possibly be TO
the one receiving it. Then how freely.
fully and joyously we ought to give.
..Give! as the morning that flows out of heaven;
Give, the waves when their channel 10 risen;
Give, as the free air and sunshine are given;
Lavishly. utterly. joyfully give.
Not the waste drops OF thy cup Overlooking
Not the faint sparks Of thy hearth overlooking
Not a pale bud from the June roses blowing

nature of real gifts should be instilled
In the minds of the young.
The great lesson for all to learn is the
grounds for giving; that what we have Is
not our own. that our possessions. what
ever they may be. are gifts to us, and
are TO be used in the unseltsh spirit that
impaired them to our keeping
Freely ye have received. freely give"
But what or who are we, aias
That we in giving are 50 freet
Thine own before our offering was,
And all We have we have from Thee
For we are guests and strangers here.
As were our fathers in Thy sight;
Our days but shadow Like appear.

The new nation must be buttressed

"shabuoth has gained a stronger and
a more impressive hold today by en-
twining it's symbolism about the Inn
questionable child. Confirmation is the
ceremony expressive of religious CON
secration. We publicly affirm by this
ceremonial that our children, the first
ripe fruits of our religious schools
shall stand morally and religiously in
the same enthusiastic and receptive at
titude as did their fathers at the foot
of Mount Sinai.
"Shabuoth has distinctly modern
and Indispensable appeal to the in
dividuai. 1t teaches. first of all. that
religion, as a necessity of life, is the
actuating motive and sanction of per-
sonai. social and national character.
Secondly, it champions the cause of re-
ligious freedom as the most highly
priced privilege and possession of the
human race.

conditions have been studied and expert
ments with new methods have been
made.
Leaders in these studies declare that
the product or output of the churches
of America can be doubled without in
creasing the cost dollar If only better
methods be employed. American people
give 100000 year to maintain
Christian churches. 1t is claimed that
with scientific management all that is
now attained can be accomplished on
$500 600. 600, leaving the other $4,000 .0OO
for advance work.
New York Episcopal laymen report that
$12, 100000 a year is required to maintain
Christian work in their city. all religious
bodies. or about $3O0J.0OO a year for
Episcopal churches alone. They aim to
show how, in their church alone, twice
as much work can be performed without
increasing the outlay. Committees are
already at work on convention plans.

The Mighty Dollar.

This is the age Of great wealth. 1t
is, 1 believe, Gods appointed time for
a converted and consecrated purse.
Hundreds of millions are expended in

The call for generous gifts rings
clearer as the ages advance and mate

need is not money, except as means
to reach the higher wealth of the mind
and soul. 1t is to this end that the God
given spirit of generosity in mankind is
consecrated. The time is coming when
all hearts and all purses will be con-
verted and when both will spend and be
spent for the cause of Him who alone is
entitled to the wealth and the dominion
Of the world.
But what about now?
Are your heart and purse converted

Jesus invariably adapted His methods to
