RY THE REV. CHARLES STELzLE
To the Bible student who reads
the word of God with an open mlnd'
there are given revelations Whlch the
wisest men on earth cannot urpas
1T Is true that the more the student
of the Bible knows about the rules
of Interpretation, about history ana
the more intelligent Will
be his study, and the more eHectlVe
his teaching of truth to others. ~.
But there's no doubt that the
bnmblest man who is led by the
spirit of God will receive knowledge
and wisdom that the worldly wise
can never learn.
But God never encourages q man
RI remain uninformed-he never
places a premium upon ignorance.
Perhaps q good illustration OF the
advantage of general education ana
spiritual revelation is found when
one tries to interpret the vision given
to Daniel. the prophet.
Nebuchadnezzar had a dream
which his wise men failed to under
stand, so Daniel Interpreted for the
Nebuchadnezzar had seen a vision
of a great image-the head was OF
gold, the breast n arms OF silver,
the thighs of brass and the legs were
of iron, while the feet were part iron
and part clay.
And as the king looked, a stone
smote the image upon his feet, and
dashed it In pieces, and the stone
became a great mountain which I'LL
ed the whole earth
And here in part is Daniels inter-
| probation as given to the king:
Thou are this head of gold.
\"And after thee shall arise an
other kingdom inferior to thee, and
another third kingdom Of brass,
which shall bear rule over all the
earth.
And the fourth kingdom shall be
| strong as iron; forasmuch as iror
| breaketh in pieces and subdueth all
| things: and as iron that breaketh all
these shall it break in pieces and
bruise.
"And whereas thou sawest the feet
and toes, part of potters' clay, and
| part of iron, the kingdom shall be
divided; but there shall be In 1t OF
| the strength of the iron, forasmuch
| as thou sawest the iron mixed with
miry clay.
"And as the toes of the feet were
part of iron, and part of clay. so the
kingdom shall be partly strong and
partly broken.
And whereas thou sawest iror
| mixed with miry clay, they shall
| mingle themselves with the seed OF
| men: but they shall not cleave one
! te-another. even as iron is not mix

Such Is Life

Mcmillan, the arctic explorer, says
that dogs and men are not so very diff
ferent in basic qualities of character.
The first time his sledge dogs en-
countered a polar bear, a grand fight
ensued.
Every dog team has its bully. The
bully was expected by everyone to
distinguish himself in the melee.
He ran for a mile and half eve the
ice fields. sat down on a hummock
and howled.
He couldn't be dragged within ten
rods of the bears carcass.
Then there was old Blinky Bill, a
pacihst, he simply wouldn't fight an
othe rdog. His tail was always wag-
, ging, his tongue hanging out.
Blinky Bill climbed over all the
other dogs to get at the bears throat
II was badly clawed and chaWed.
| When it was finisher, ne hid himself
away to lick his wounds. His manner
implied, please don't make o fuss
over met was nothing"
1t is never safe to classify men as
altogether weak, or altogether strong;
as cowardly or brave. Kipling says
hat to every man Is appointed his
especial fear. The man afraid of a
| garter snake may stand cool and firm
before the~rush of a tiger. The wo-
man who e at sight of a mouse
may be willing to expose herself to
the plague if a loved one needs nurs-
ing.
Rabis are risky, after all, applied
to human character.

PLAY, SING AND WORK TOGETHER.

Lorain O.. has community service league whose
activities may be said to have just fairly begun with the
ending of the war; The league has recently hired a
play leader whose job is to teach the whole city how to
play. He will begin with about twenty play leaders, men
from various fraterna and business groups of the city,
Then these will go to their associates and carry on
the play instruction under the direction of the city leader
of athletics Organized athletics and games, heathfu
exercises and recreation walking forpeasure will become
matters Of daily experience and joy to everybody in the
community the plan is carried out fully and progress
made
That is not all the community service is doing 1t has

LOrain citizens, men, women, and children will learn to
sing There will be public concerts and community sings
which everyone enjoy and in which all who wish may
participate.
The idea seems to be that certain amount of sing
ing and playing together is good for the people, 1t de-
veops wholesome social atmosphere and friendly good
will that carries into the workaday routine of life.
In other words people who sing and play together will also
work together This community like similar towns all
