EpWORTH LEAGUE DISCUSSION.

| Romans. We must feel so deeply the
sorrows of the others that we shall
weep with them-and il is just as true
sympathy to feel so deeply the joys of
others that we shall rejoice with them.
| Second, we must root out the weeds,
such as Indifference. ingratitude, I'M
the "selfshness family The weeds
j., must be not only uprooted, but must be
| kept out, or they will choke and kill
the plant of sympathy. See how incom-
patible with sympathy these are. There
| is indifference-laZy when tasks are to
| be done and careless when extreme
care is necessary There is ingratitude
! the besetting sin of America, And
unkindness-so common and yet so
| unnecessary
Third. we must have showers of
| blessings to water the soil in the gar
den of our hearts. that is we must an
preciate the fact that we are getting
these showers of blessings If we but
| know it. the dews of God will come
with every passing morn and night TO
help cultivate sympathy in the Chris
| tian's heart
| Fourth we must fertilze and enrich
our hearts soil by the power of
| Christian example. We can make
Christ and Paul and many others offer
US by keeping them before us as
| ideals.
Finally. We must get plenty of the
sunshine of Gods love in our hearts
! The love of Christ. supremely mani
| tested on calvary. is the warming
power that will make sympathy grow
| to full fruition.
| What will the harvest be-
| Blossoms and fruits will result from
the cultivation of sympathy. A deeper
Christian consciousness cannot help
but bloom in life if the sympathy of
the heart be like Christ's. We shall
enter anew into His experience, and
| through His victory be conquerors
ourselves. We shall appreciate the
meaning of charity as Paul described
it in the thirteenth chapter of first
Corint hians. and that love which is the
more excellent way will be our choice
possession and the chief motive of our
| lives.
! The fruitage of this sympathy will
! be compassionate yearnins Tor others
the new birth of a hope that they,
! too. may enter into the JOY of an ex-
/ perience like ours.

Strike" Story Discredited.

threatened to strike" should any
punishment be given the captain. who
is held responsible. inasmuch as he
was in charge of the company. Mr..
Kramer discredited any idea that the
BOYS would attemUt to strike and
said that since the affair he had heard
all sorts of rumors. many greatly eN-
aggerated and without foundation. He
refused to believe, he said. that the
boys would even consider the pos
SibilitieS of a strike.
According to the information now in
hand the boys. who were compelled to
wait for many hours before they en-
tered the parade. rushed into store
to make some purchases, and in doing
so created slight damages. which
brought about a controversy with the
proprietor. A superior officer of the
cadets made a report of the trouble.

Of Washington market, in New York

appear behind his counter with high
hat, and it was thought bad taste if the
meat seller at the end of a prosperous
week failed 20 destroy the hat. The

broken hats and repair them for their
