QUESTION ALL MUST ANSWER
Time Comes When Every Man Will
Be Asked as to the Harvest He
Has Reaped.

Earth shows her harvest in pride Of
fullness or regret Of bitter poverty;
what is ours-we who also have had
our year7 As the old phrase has It,
What fruits have we brought forthf
Man is not bound to the seasons as
titled land is and needs no barn to
gather his soul in when autumn comesi
but, with the same plainness, he
either does not yield the values by
which mankind truly lives. When fall
closes down on summers parting the
greatest and the least Of us have
either helped or hindered the perma-
nent welfare Of our race. Mans own
business is to increase justice and
kindness; to make more of patience,
humility and courage; to see to it that
evil loses and that good is strength
ened in the unending conflict Of those
forces. For the souls harvest home
1t Is either tares or wheat; there IL no
fallow ground. The sowing Is unseen
Of others, and the reaper, also, but the
care and thought that 60 to the grow
ing of the crop are much the same.
But mans own harvest is fnflnity and
eternally more important than that
which he wrests from the feld.-Col-
lier's.
