Years ago. during his student days,
the writer heard the late Prof. Drum

Love. the Greatest Thing in the
World" which it will repay all to
read in connection with this lesson.
In that message he called attention
to the fact that, just as a scientist
takes a beam Of light and breaks it
up into its component colors by pass
ing it through prism. so Paul. by
passing love Through the magnificent
prism of his inspired intellect" broke
it up into its elements. The various

not one that might fill one with van

are controlled by the compulsion that
is in love differences in Christians
will all disappear. Civilization DOM

airy forces was due to their love Of
liberty and home. They entered the
battles, which brought an end to the
conflict. not with songs of hate upon

stroying the spirit of hatred that war

in the Transforming power of love.
1t will be a disgrace. now that victory

PRINCIPLE OF SCOUTING.

Scouting Is becoming an important
factor In the successful raising OF
boys to manhood The scout move
ment develops the sense OF duty in
the youngster that enables him to
probe within himself for the manly
characteristics. It's man-slze job to
be done In mans way. and w. A.
Perry. the editor Of Scouting. offers
few lines on that subject:
II am not Interested in scouting In
high-priced school amid landscape
gardening. and statuary. and drinking
fountains-all made by somebody else
i am Interested In a forest far from
civilization, where / must either con-
quer nature-or confess myself a
weakling. 1t is fine thing to teach
boys to stand in line with spotless uni
forms and win the applause of crowd
gathered to witness dress parade.
But | would rather develop boy, so
that he could walk alone into world
of wickedness, conscious Of the great
laws back of it all. with spirit which
would make him forget self and fight
