She said. in part:
The great war will bring untold
changes in its wake; 1t Dresages a
total change in the status OF women.
/ In Europe, from the Polar circle TO
\ the AEGEAN sen women have risen and
taken the places made vacant by
men, and in so doing they have
grown in self-respect and in the es-

The Great Multitude.


It is difficult sometimes to under
stand and teach our lessons when they
are taken from the book of Revelation.
It is not altogether easy to understand
fully and to interpret practically the
lesson for today; still. some beautiful
and really life-giving thoughts may be
gotten by carefully and prayerfully
studying 1t.
E st. John the divine was ever seeing
heavenly vision and trying by means
of them to lift the minds and lives of
people up to a more spiritual plane.
He also caught, it seems, visions Of
the eternal results of living the spirit
ual life here and now. These visions
have been studied so long, have so
very frequently inspired poet. painter,
and orator, that they form much of
the mental pictures we have of "the
home over there"
Try to think, If YOU can, Of what a
different picture you would have of
heaven If all the visions that John saw,
had never reached your mind through
reading, teaching and preaching. 1t Is
when we try to lay aside all impress
sions of heaven gotten from st. Johns
Revelation that we appreciate the
wonderful part this book has in our
conception of heaven and the great
beyond" Of the Christian.
John always saw things on no mean
scale. when he caught visions Of the
great and glorious future. In our les
son today he saw multitude which
no man could number" and to this nu-
merical greatness was added the
breadth of the vision as ii included "all
nations and klndreds. and people and
tongues" But It is not at ali strange
that John with his nnbounded faith in
the power of the love of God. should
see the fruits of that love manifested
in the saving of such multitude Of
the children Of men; and. after all.
who dares measure the fnllness Of
meaning and power in God SO loved
the WORLD? What a different world
this would be IL only Christians would,
by faith. see more Of the image Of God
in their fellow men: or better stu, If
Christians would only know that a
vast number OF men and women In this
world are clothed upon with His pure
spirit and waving palms OF victory ovs
er sin and self1shness, they walk In His
presence day by day IL such manner
that their lives proclaim TO men ev-
erywhere the glorious power Of the
salvation wherewith God saves man
Rind; and It is the people that know
God through the purity Of their own
lives or through the purity to which
God through Christ hath restored
them--it Is these who constantly give
Blessings and glory, and wisdom and
Thanksgiving and honor and power
and might unto God forever and ever"
Il seems 10 me, however, that the
Christian religion does not look enough

in His divinity is that we shall be-
