DR.. Rees Asks "Where
Shall | Spend Eternity?'
lCOntinued from PAGE ON

Continued from Page one)
wer comes "the eternity of the past.
With great sweep Of thought we
turn our faces forward, to the time
when "thc elements shall melt with
fervent heat" and the frame work OF
the earth passes away, and we cry
what is yonder?' and the answer
comes, "the eternity of the future.
., my friends, where shall we spend
it? There is limit in numbering the
drops of the ocean and the sand by
the sea shore, but there is no number
ing the years Of eternity. O, that
soundless, fathomless sea of eternity.
2. This is personal question.
Man became living soul: this night
thy soul shall be required of thee:
what shall it profit man if he gain
the whole world and lose his own
soul?' We are influenced by inherit
ance and environment, and we are
thankful for Christian friends and
praying parents, but none of us will
ever center by the gates into the city"
unless we come to personal Saviour.
Your sin, is it pardoned; your death
are you planning for it? your heaven,
are you getting ready for it? Have
you Home" in that country to
which you are rapidly moving?
3 This is an important question.
We must spend eternity somewhere;
it is left to US as free moral agents
to determine where. What is of great
er importance than destiny? How
much time and money, how much
anxiety and planning you crowd into
the question of where you will spend
few uncertain years here, when at
best it is but the vestibule of eternity
1t is not sentiment that demands
that we consider his question, it is
the prompting of a wise man in the |
face of the inevitable.
4 | believe that this life is deter
of the future. 1t is written |
behold, come quickly; he that
unjust, let him be unjust still, and he
that is filthy, let him be filthy still, he
that is righteous, let him be righte-
Gus still, and he that is holy, let him
be holy still" Fixedness of character /
IS taught by the Great Teacher, nd
IS demonstrated by study of HUI
man life. If you live for ninety years
and begin tonight, will you have too
nuch time in which to serve the
Lord, and to help make this world
better? But none of you will live for
10 years, most of US but fraction
If that time. What are you doing in
he presence of this certainty of the
uture? Is the life that you are now
living in any way related to that life
hat you are to live? You think that
-ou have not made decision on this
.reat question. You hace; your de-
ay and indccision was negative de-
ision. You may now reverse your
ecision' if you will. In Christ's par
Bile: Lazarus died, and went to
PARADISE. Dives, the self-satisfed, ,
elfish, inhumane rich man, died, and |
ad funeral" Friend, do you look |
eyond your funeral" and ask with 8
II seriousness, what for me is oe-
ond; where am to spend eternity" :
Now" is the most imperious word in i
he Bible. "Now is the accepted time,
ow is the day of salvation" q

W|DENED
WITH GOVERNOR
State Highway Board Refuses TO
Give in

'Bu Special Correspondent
TRENTON, March 5.-Relation pc
tween Governor Edwards and the
State Highway commission became Iur
Their strained here today when the
latter sent a second communication to
the executive refusing to accede TO MS
request for an abandonment OF the
commissions announced policy to
take over this year all the unimproved
parts of the state highway system.
1.-The commission during the entire
period of it's existence" says the re-
ply, has endeayored TO carry out the
intent of this law, keeping in mind
one fundamental fact,-and hat Is to
give the citizens of the state the
greatest possible mileage OF the state
highway system in the quickest pos
sible time at q minimum cost and has
developed its organization according
ly. 1t now comes to that point where
II Is possible, with it's organization,
to carry on q maximum amount OF
construction each year, limited only
by the funds In hand, and at the same
time maintain and keep in repair the
entire State Highway System. RMS,
we conceive, to be our paramount
duty. This policy has been made pos
sible by maintaining the integrity or
the motor vehicle fund, so-called, ana
also the State-aid fund"
The Governor has pointed o that
the n from the Motor Eehlcle
Fund may be needed to pay for the
Bridge and Tunnel Bond Issue. The
Commissions reply today said these
n came from the autotsts of the
State and inasmuch as they destroy
the highways and make necessary the
repairs to them, 1t seems lnconceiva-
BILE that the funds should be diverted
to any other purpose h that for
which the Commission has applied
them. That fact that 1t will be I'M
possible to complete the Highway
system for the amount of money
originally planned. is all the more
reason to properly keep faith with the
people by maintaining those portions
of the system OF highways that can
not be Immediately constructed.
"a dollar is equal to only 43 cents
now, says the Commission, and when
this Is applied to the State Highway
work 1t does not bring the cost per
mile of construction very much, II
any, over the original estimate. The
Commission concludes by saying 1t
had done what 1t believes to be It's
duty and adds: eve do no feel that
we should be Influenced to deviate
therefrom in the slightest degree"
