In the Third Chapter of First John have very
remarkable expressions, and they just what they say
John says:
Behold what of love the Father hath bestowed upon
Us, that we should be called the sons Of Cod
GoDs WONDERFUL LOVE ExEMPL1F1ED
The only expression that occurs to that would help any
body to understand this the following:
Suppose that great ruler send word the diriest
little urchin there is to be found and should say him. Il will
adopt you my and make you the heirs of my
kingdom"
10 take that step and to transform that child state
OF little urcn to the position Of member Of the rulers
hoda in the family and heir-would require very
great love- would it not?
God looked down upon humanity sin and disease and dirt
and th and He made possible for them become His sons
Therefore the excaaton Behold what manner of love the
Father hath bestowed upon U.s. that should be called the
sons of God!"
What wonderful love the ruler bestow upon the

BYERS REPORTED ILL.

report comes from Iron River
that Lieut.. Isaac w. Byers is in
hospital in France and that he writes
he may come home unless his health
improves. Our informant doesn't
know the reason for Lieut. Byers be-
ing the hospital IL may be because OF
wounds or ii may be from illness.
No participant IN the present strug-
gle is worthy OF more praise than is
Lieutenant Byers. A man Of fifty
years OF age he went to the officers
training camp upon the representation
that he was a much younger man. lie
had prepared himself for the camp or
deal by several months OF home train
ing SO that he withstood the rigorous
training season well. Young men who
were in camp with Lieut.. Byers say
that he was the admiration Of the en-
tire camp membership because of the
grit that he displayed
Soon after completing his training
he went to France and as was learned
from his published letter in these
columns a few weeks ago II is not In
the bullet proof Jobs that he shines
but right out in the front line trenches
where the going is the hardest. There
Is no shirking for Lieutenant Byers
and In this he Is simply playing true
to an old characteristic, he never was
shirker.
We all hope to see Lieutenant By
ers spared that he may come home

left in Iron River when he went TO the
front, home to the circle OF friends and
admirers who have watched his course
all these many months and are proud
