MY CONCEPTION OF AN IDEAL
HOME

10 begin Win let me say III snOuiu
be every boys and girls ambition
to attain a home. What shall we
use as our definition for home?
Most Of us are accustomed TO think
Of il as merely being a place where
we may eat and sleep. Many Of us
would say that the ideal home was
based on wealth. Perhaps this is
partly true. but the fundamentals Of
an Ideal Home" are, unity Of pur-
pose between man and wife. love,
selfmade fortune. and children. II
matters not where family lives.
they may live in the white House
or they may live under the cliff, but
this one thing is certain, that where
ever the above mentioned funda-
mentals prevail the home is glori-
fed.
Our first requirement for an ideal
home is unity OF purpose between
man and wife, or in other words they
should become as one. This means
that a saint should not marry an
jnfldel, that a Christian should not
be joined To a Mohammedan. a wise
man should not choose a foolish
woman for his life companion. be-
cause there exists between the
saint and the inldel a wide gulf OF
opposing beliefs which will
prevent their becoming as one.
There is also gulf between the
Mohammedan and the Protestant,
and between the wise and the foolish
woman. Because Of those wide dif-
ferences there can be no unity Of
purpose. Show me home with
out unity Of purpose and I will
show YOU a home in which there is
unhappiness.
Love must not be lacking il you
would have an Ideal Home" BY
this Love | don't mean that narrow,
shallow. hair-brained statement.
I'm crazy about you" but I mean
the practice Of the Golden Rule and
not. IAN eye for an eye and a tooth
for tooth" Love means under
standing, for il has been rightly said.
Where there is perfect understand
ing there is perfect love" No two
persons can be friends long who
will not forgive each others misdo-
ings. No two persons can be friends
long who constantly suspect each
other. II there is perfect love the
Golden Rule will be practiced and
thus you see love TO be an impor-
tant factor in making the home.
In order 10 have the best home
possible ! dare say that the hus-
band and wife should make their
fortune together. for when the f.
nance is held by the man alone he
says 10 his wife, 1--WE got the money
you can do as you please" This
same statement is hurled at the man
when the woman holds the purse.
Let them make their fortune to-
gether by sacrifice and undergoing
hardships then they will be on an
equal base and will realize them
selves as one.
Last but not least OF these fun
damentals are children. Children
make the life Of the home. No
broader smile has ever been seen
than that OF a father smiling on
his first born son. Children furnish
a common interest between the
mother and father. Parents live for
their children and not for them
selves. Many OF us cannot bear noisy
children. but no man is a man until
he has learned TO endure their noise

To Whom 1t May Be of interest
Rev. w. E. Bennett of Colorado
Springs, Colo, has just closed a two
weeks campaign in the Mckinley
Memorial Methodist church which
has stirred the church and communi-
ty to its depths. No revival in sew
years in this city has attracted 81
many people and been blessed with
such marked results. Ninety-fve
people have given token of conver-
sion, and many who were drifting
have returned to enthusiastic Service
in the work Of the kingdom.
Brother Bennett attracts by his
Eenial'ty; his strong and fearless
messages; his clear statement of the
truth, and his absolute faith and con
sequent optimism. He has no sensa-
tional methods, but his earnest and
Interesting appeals draw ever enlarg-
ing congregations and ever deepen
ing interest and conviction.
Perhaps the most emarKable ser
vice which he held here was the aft
ernoon Bible Study which was at.
tended at first by few of the most
faithful; then by all the members who
could get the time to come, and bv a
number of other pastors of this part
OF the city; then by the membership
OF these other churches brought by
their pastors to study under thi.
masterful leader the plan of God 70,
the enrichment of His children. And
all who came to this ever growing
service were richly repaid.

success to his efforts in every place
