the list showed losses OF IL to Is

The early trading probably would
have been more severe judging by
the comment over salca of but 1000

for the fact that too much rain fell

OPPORTUNITIES

Are given to all. The Lord fits the op-
portunity to the work required. He
also provides the means essential to
success and gives efficiency and GER
tainty to the effort.
But they are neglected by MANY and
so are lost. We lose them uncon-
sciously and while busted here and
there with many minor things. Sad
is the story-a charge neglected, a
duty unfulflled, bitter loss sus-
tanned, fearful doom incurred.
Lost opportunities bring loss of hap
piness, while the consequences will
be eternal. Gone! o what regrets
You can recover some trusts. Lost
health may be recovered; alienated
friends may be won back, but there
are some irreparable failures in life.
The boy or girl at school who waste
golden hours in pleasure or trifing
that should have been given to study,
will go through life handicapped by
the misspent hours of youth.
A young man grieves fond parent
by his waywardness, perhaps wan
ders off and by neglect brushes the
heart he has so deeply Swallowed.
When he comes to himself, he says:
III go back home and make up for
the past" but he reaches home only
to find the broken hearted mother is
gone forever and he has no chance to
atone-to her, at least-,for his neg
lect; no opportunity for kind words;
no deeds of repentance can now
brighten the life he had saddened by
sin and through the halls of his dark
ened life there echoes the wailing cry,

come back? There is a tradition that
he did and in that early church he
played his part as an almoner to the
needs of men. 1t is just as satisfying
a solution as the persistent refusal to
obey and serve.
THE PROPERTY MENACE.
IF money is the root of all evil,
most of us is willin' to grub bit for
EN-" Yet neither Jesus nor Paul
rallied at property but at the passion
for it that dulled the finer sensibili-
ties. The disciples were shocked at
the action of their Teacher in the
first place and astounded at the state
ment that followed the sending of the
distinguished visitor away. Wealth
had always been held the measure of
Gods approval and to have it mark
of piety. Had not Job been rich
Had not Abraham been the Croesus of
hi shines? Had not al 1.-The patriarchs
possessed vast f1ocks and herds? Had
not David piled up gold and jewels,
and had not Solomon dazzled his royal
visitor with the splendor of his court I?
What unheard of thing was this that
property was a menace to everlasting
life? Yet it is the truth that needs
new assertion today that if it be given
first place in mans life or thinking
for the tramp may be avaricious and
the millionaire-his case is a hopeless
one. Only as he regarded his possess
sions as a trust to be administered
for the arger good, only as he feels
himself steward of Gods bounty
can he be real follower of Him who
held even life in trust for humanity.
THE PROMISE TO THE TWELVE.
Peter was looking out for the main
chance, and if there was any impli-
cation of failure through putting mon-
ey first, certainly there should be a
return for the placing of Jesus in that
position, What are we to get %
was the query that revealed as sell
fish, as bargaining an attitude as any
one can imagine. Yet it is not so for
eign from the twentieth century as
one may think. Religion for reward
