MODERN SLUGGARD

In youth / did not care to play
Or study, dance or sing;
What others did from day to day
Bored me like anything.
| did not like to shoot or fish,
Or round the girls to smirk
And this was still my earnest wish
"May not have to work.
The drama was to me a bore.
Books held for me no charm,
And labor in shop or store
| view with wild alarm.
| only loved to sit and dream
With idly folded hands,
And try to figure out scheme
To dodge all tolls demands.
Well, that is why I'm sitting here
Within my sumptuous den;

In using other men.
While others used their muscle, |
Used them to gain by pelf,
have one valid reason why

1 Time fails Is 20 begin 10 repeat The
evidence 81 Liaeon's increasing faith
/ in those days when bis soul was tried
as few men have been tried. Mr.
Henry c. Whiting Ia his Life on the
Circuit with Lincoln, is authority for
saying that Mr.. Lincoln told Coy. Ed
ward Stanley. military governor OF
North Carolina. that she earnestly and
oft times prayed oGod in these idcnti-
cal words Father If il be possible. let
this cup pass from me" But IN vain,
and then he issued the emancipation
proclamation,
In closing il may be sufficient for
the purpose Of this theme, Lincoln,
the Christian to repeat the words of
Mr. Lincoln's Washington pastor, Rev.
Phineas d. Gurley d. d., when he said,
Il have had frequent and intimate
conversation with him on the subject
of the Bible and the Christian religion
and | considered him sound, not only
in the truth Of the Christian religion,
but on all its fundamental doctrines
and teachings. And more than that,
in the latter days of his chastened and
weary life, after the death of his son,
Willie, and his visit to the battlefield
of Gettysburg, he said with tears in
his eyes that he had lost confidence
in everything but God and that he
now believed that his heart was chang
edand that he loved his Savior, and if
he was not deceived in himself, it was
his intention soon to make profession
Of religion.
And in answer to the direct question
Of an Illinois clergyman: "Do you love
Jesus ?" Mr.. Lincoln solemnly replied:
"When | left Springfield asked the
people to pray for me, ! was not
Christian, when | buried my son, the
severest trial of my life, was not
Christian. But when went to Gettys-
burg and saw the graves of thousands
of our soldiers, then and there conse-
Grated myself to Christ Yes, / do
love Jesus"
For those who knew the spirit and
the life of him who spoke these words
there was sufficient evidence of his
faith, but for many it is satisfaction
to have on record the direct statement
of his own lips. If ever man walked
with God, that man was Abraham
Lincoln.
