Not Necessary to
Lose the President
To Gain the Future
By the REV. CHARLES srELzIE

By the REV. CHARLES sTELzIE
What shall it proht a man IL
he gain the whole world and loss
his own soul7"
Here are the Stakes= The world"
of sense, of pleasure, of honor. Of
wealth; the sour-oe man him
self, the image Of God in his heart
the divinity that makes him i'm
mortal
And here are the two destinies
ahead: The outer darkness where
there Is weeping and gnashing of
teeth and an inheritance incor-
ruptible and undehled and that fad
eth not away. which is laid up for
US in heaven"
Before we make our decision let's
keep in mind some rather important
facts; the man who loses his soul
loses the future, but he does not
necessarily gain the present The
man whose soul is saved does not
necessarily lose the present to gain
the future
1t is entirely possible for a man
to gain all Of the future and still
retain the best things in the pres
ent. 1t does not follow that every
thing in the present is bad, and
that one must make a choice be-
tween either the present or the
future. The real question we are
called upon to decide is whether.
in order to gain the present we are
willing TO give up the future-and
run the chance Of losing both.
Unfortunately, most men believe
that religion is a solemn. serious,
sour AFFAIR, with no joy in II. They
could not be more thoroughly mis-
taken.
1t does mean that man must
be honest and fair and true to his
best ideals, but any other kind Of a
life doesn't bring very much happi-
ness, even in this world.
You never saw a man who was
crooked and unfair and untrue to
the finest things in life who was
sincerely happy and joyous-he was
constantly suffering tortues because
of the fear of discovery and because
he might at any moment lose his ILL
gotten wealth or position.
And so-take your choice: do you
want to live in the present world

Altogether the Methodists provided a
new kind of show and one that was
popular as well as edifying. It helped
our Middle West to visualize the
needs of far-distant peoples. One
gratifying feature of the whole cen

Such Is Life
As 1t Is Seen
By O. B. JOYFUL

Saturday noon you close your desk
with a bang. you leap for your hat
as though the humidity which has
been so depressing had been shut up
tight for Saturday afternoon and
Sunday in the office safe, and you
tear out OF the building with as
much pep as youngster racing
through the meadows TO the old
swimming hole. You're going to the
lake for the weekend, and your
cares and troubles and worries have
folded up their tents and beat it
hence.
Man, what Joy to doff your digni-
fed duds when you reach the cot
tage and insert your frame into a
pair of overallS, a who-cares shirt
and a pair Of old carpet slippers!
How exhilarating to grab the can of
worms your son has carefully gar
nered for you, snatch up your old
bamboo fishing rod and hasten out
into the lake in the old rowboat that
has about as much speed and general
niftiness as a ten-year-old silk hat
but is as comfortable and easy going
as a pair of last years shoes.
You smoke your old corncob pipe
and lie back in the boat and nearly
doZe off, and every now and then
you make a lazy, ineffective grab for
a passing fly or a stab at a bother
some mosquito. Some OF your old
pals, who are also fishing in the vi
cinity get up enough pep to ask
about your luck and. in a thoroughly
contented voice, you say you haven t
had any.
Say. man. there's nothing like it

mosquitoes, bugs and humidity, even
