LOCKHART JUNCTION

Lockhart Junction, Oct. 9.-When
this writer lay down last night it was
clear with the stars and moon shin
ing bright and beautiful. This morn
ing when he awoke it was raining.
So we see how things change. Oh,
how quickly, we say, but God works
In mysterious ways his wonders to
perform. Is there anything that will
not change? Yes, there are two
Things that will never change-God
and his word. He is the same yes
terday, today and tomorrow and al
ways; his words abide forever. How
many of US stop to think about al
ways, forever or eternity? The life
we spend here is short if we live three
score years and ten. Then have
you thought about where are we to
spend eternity when this life is ended
mere! This is something to think
about. Have you ever stopped to
think and look around at things hap-
pening in the world and how things
are going? What are we ,ioinr to
make the world better? Are we at
tending church? Do we rc to Sun
day school or prayer meeting? What
is the cause of so much dissipation
IL might be on account Of not going
TO church and Sunday school end
prayer meeting? How often do you
make your preacher feel proud by
fllling your place in the church and
telling him that was a fine sermon
ana then inviting him home with you
to break bread, then pay him thai
assessment? You know then thai
will make him feel still better. We'll.
it may be that I have run nv subject
far enough, but these are my thoughts
and | am writing them. Some might
say this is not news, but l think they
ought to be more letters on subjects
IKE TINS, Take the preacher from the
pulpit, the superintendent from the
sunday school and the mission from
his work, then don't you believe there
would be more dissipated lives than
there are now? The poet describes it.
Go, see what | have seen and feel
what L have felt" Pardon me. 7 re-
member the first Sunday school I at
tended when boy. 1t seems as if
there was a cord tied to me that has
never been broken. | am still going.
