person $ existence is a mere accident and
1t is positive fact that man is a reflec-
ton of something higher than mere hu-
mainly. There can be only one thing high
er than humanity and that is Divinity
This in a measure explains where man
came from and what he is He is not
a permanent fixture or part of this ma
terial world as death proves that
These three great questions distin-
guish man from every other form of
animal creation and serve both "a a
check upon sinful indulgence and also
as an impetus to religious activity. If
