CITES CATHEDRAL
AS CHURCH AGENT
DR.. c. Stanley Long Dis
cusses Truths Taught by
Mt. st. Adams Structure.

The national cathedral being erected
at Mount ST. Alban was declared yes
terday by DR.. c. Stanley Long, dean
Of st. Luke's Cathedral of Orlando, Fla,
speaking at Peace Cross, to be one of
the great agencies of the church in
overcoming the "unattractiveness' of
Jesus Christ, and in bring men to the
message of the cross"
The luna of Jesus to
worldly men, DR.. Long said, was caused
by His holiness, which "scares and
affrights men, by it's intense and search
ing light revealing sin: by the mystery
Of his personality. which to many was
stumbling block: by the AUTHORITY
Of his claim" and by the message of
the Cross
Most Searching Experience.
This latter. DIR. Long said, comes
with its condemnation of the life man
lives, loves and excuses. II comes with
the requirement of repentance. and that
is the most searching experience the
heart can know"
When and how is this unattrac-
tiVeness overcome? asked DR. Long"
IL is overcome in that moment when
men eyes are open to see our Lord
In His redeeming grace. and their
'ears are open to hear His words
There is q day when Jesus Christ
takes every man aside. A silence
falls on our lives. Then his voice
rebukes US. but as he speaks with us.
the light dawns on the soul and we
begin to see what those saw in Him
TO whom He became their desire.
Bears Witness to Truths.
Men who have labored to erect this
national cathedral have seen this
light. Here in the capital of the land
TINS shrine Will bear witness to the
central truths of the Gospel: !:
t.e diVine presence among us
or the triumphant Lord and Master.
VINO claims our obedience and .devo-
tlon; beacon which shall penetrate
INTO the darkness and indifference of
the worlds hostility to the message
OF tne cross; house of quiet, where
inc humble and 1oWly Of heart shall
indeed realize the attractiyeness of
Jesus Christ"

JOHN-A-DREAMS
XXxI. WHEN WILD BEASTS RAGE IN YOUR SLUMBER


 Of wild beasts was my dream.
 I dreaded them because there
 was foolish fear in my heart.
 But To, they did me no harm
 and where they stood good grew
 from the ground to comfort me.
 Thus runs the old prophecy. And in the Book of Dreams that has come from my pen 1t stands writ ten that to dream of wild beasts in an indistinct. barely remembered manner, means honors and the pro- tection and friendship and favor of those placed high in the affairs of this world. True, there are excep- tions. Much depends upon your ac- ton and those of the dream creature; but. in general way, the appear ance of one of them is good, a desirable omen.
 We dream often of tigers, lions. bears and elephants. For some req son which I can not explain, the smaller beasts of woods and plain are rare visitors. When you dream that you are being attacked by a ferocious beast. watch well how you meet the onslaught. If you turn and run before the creature can reach you, fine opportunity will soon be offered to you but you will fail to take advantage of 1t and then spend days and weeks deploring your lack of enterprise. If you en- gage in a struggle and are beaten down this means that, in a matter of rather considerable importance, you have undertaken too much and had better save your strength and your effort for tasks to which you are equal. But If you down the beast duty will sit lightly upon your shoul- ders, success will crown your labors fruitless and useless will be tht
