uninteresting book, and though they
read 1t occasionally; II Is not because
they enjoy 1t, but rather from sense
of duty. Is II possible for anyone to real
ly enjoy the Bible so that they will
prefer this book above all others? Sure
ly 1t Is, and any one who will accept
the following suggestions will soon
find the Bible has become the most
precious Of all books.
In order to enjoy the Bible one needs
to be born again. The various books
of the Bible were written by godly
men, and for the use Of godly people.
While Its stories are always interest
ing to children, and its sublime senti-
ments and literary beauty appeal to
all classes, still the book as Il whole
does not interest ungodly people, part
ly because IL is a constant rebuke to
them, and partly because 1t is nd
dressed chiefly to those who love God.
A person who has not been born again
does not enjoy spiritual things, be-
cause he has not a spiritual nature. As
soon as he accept Christ, however, he
becomes partaker Of the divine ma
ture, and at once the Bible becomes
necessity to him. II answers his ques-
tions and satisfies the cravings of his
new spiritual nature.

Sign Of the New Heart.

One of the first ana surest signs Of
new heart is a relish for the Bible.
This Is what the Apostle Peter refers
to when he says, "As newborn babes
desire yc the sincere milk of the word
that We may grow thereby" A book
on lodge matters can hardly be ex-
pected TO interest one who does not
belong to that particular order, neither
is railway guide very attractive TO
one who does not desire to travel. Let
man join the lodge, however, and at
once he Is interested 20 learn all he
can about the order. So If he Is plan
ming n trip to Europe he finds great
pleasure In reading Baedeker's Guide,
because IL describes the countries
where he Is going. For the same rea-
son the Bible Is interesting To Chris
tlan, because It is Il series of letters
addressed to him personally by his
Heavenly Father describing the coun-
try where he is going, and giving full
directions as to how to reach II.
Another condition requisite for en-
joying the Bible Is that we recognize
the real object OF life, which Is To be-
come acquainted with God. "And this
is life eternal that they should know
thee the only true God, and Jesus
Christ whom thou hast seen" (John
II :3). If the real object of ones life
is to know God, the Bible at once be-
comes the book of all books, because II
reveals Gods character and purpose as
no other book does. David's opinion of
1t Is expressed in the words, "Thy
Word Is lamp unto my feet and n
light unto my path" and Gods esti-
mate of II is given in his injunction to
Joshua, "Thls book Of the law shall
not depart out Of thy mouth, but thou
shall mediate therein day and night"
Revelation is progressive and neces-
sarlly slow. II has taken God many
centuries to reveal to the race what
is contained In the Bible, because sin
has so blinded our vision that we are
slow to apprehend spiritual truth.
Furthermore, the Bible has to be re-
vealed to each human being separately,
as II there were no other person In
existence. Since the Bible is the prln-
cipal means by which God reveals his
character and purpose, 1t is evident
that our acquaintance with him, which
began at our conversion, will progress
just In proportion to our study and
practice of the word of God.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
Hindus Delights lis Audience

Morris fiindus,a young Russian Sho has been a number Of years in this country, opened the school entertain ment course last Friday evening with a lecture on the New Russia. Simple in his manner unaffected in his speech and delivery, fofeetul in his style, MT. Hindus held the undivided attention of his audience from the moment his address began until he had finished.
 After carefully tracing the events that have forced Russia into the war, the speaker dwelt at length on' Rus. sia's present condition, likening it to loss of blood, yet fighting desperately 1, in self defense against an attacking foe. He repeatedly urged his audi ence to rest assured that Russia is in the war to finish, and that all talk of separate peace between Russia and Germany is absolute falsehood.
 Vigorous and charming are the two words that best describe Mir. Hindus ana his lecture. To have missed hear ing his talk is to have lost something Of more than passing value.
 The Debating Club held a meeting Thursday, Oct. 10. After minor affairs were considered, Miss Keith gave a talk on augmentation and the form of a debate. Questions were considered  for the coming interelass debates.
