To-day" Bishop Freeman con-
tinued, 1--WE have those who are not
satisfied with things ne thew arc,
who want to break away from the
constituted laws and who constantly
talk about their personal rights
IF we want to drink they say, we
will drink. We know where we
can get it and no one can stop US

EPWORTH LEAGUE
Tonic and Blood Eu,Jc1se7.

Last Sunday evening an appropri-
ate program was given by the Lea
guers-after which an illustrated
lecture was given by Prof. Miles
under the auspices of the League. It
was very appropriate for the Easter
Sunday
Thus far the Leagues every un-
dertaking has been successful. Many
very good programs have been given,
which, under the direction of the
Minister have helped many of the
young people to understand and APP
preciate the work being done by
this and other Leagues for the bet
torment of the younger element Of
the church.
The Leagues are searching for new
studies and new attainments. And
into these must enter the understand
ing of play as moral and spiritual
force. They must build programs Of
recreation capable of attracting the
young people of the church--and they
must look far beyond the direct OUT
comes of any given social or enter
tainment. They must seek for
symmetry, for growth in fineness Of
taste and appreciation, and for re-
creational life that will always be in
accord with genuine and definite
Christian experience.
This new possibility Of service by
the League for the whole church has
in it something to capture the ina
gination of the self respecting youth.
More than all else, is the fact that
the recreational work of the League
has gained the attention of the
churches, and more perfect cooper
alton is made possible by the reali-
cation that here is the opportunity
to organize the social life of the
youth, to build program of play, to
prepare scheme of recreation, to
devise methods of amusement
within the church!

THE INFLUENCE OF LITERA-
TURE AND ART

Walk into a home for the first
time and sit for ten minutes wait
ing for the mistress to come in to
talk with you. You at once begin to
stuly the plan of decorations You
have drawn a mental picture of her
character before she appears. This
curious study brings you into more
direct contact with the ideals and &C.
entricities Of your friend, than If you
should meet her personally. else
where EsM
An Unborn curiosity impels you to
ward the bookcase, bright with its
multicolored, leather bound volumes,
bearing burdens Of golden treasures,
like Atlas Of old, on their backs.
Why, then should the curious in
spector be excited when the mistress
appears rather suddenly, and looks
in upon his reticence? There is no
apology which will explain the emo
ton which ensues.
The facts of the case are-that our
young visitor has been attracted to
the bookcase, the physical body sue
combing to the mental suggestion.
When the mistress makes her sud-
den appearance, the mental gives way
to the physical and rather awk-
ward flush appears on the face of
the visitor. Why should this be-?
It is from the simple fact that he
thought he was encroaching on works
which were personal property-and
the possible lack of discretion sug-
xested itself. "
The educated person should not
have felt. this embarrassment. He
should have used this pause to expos
tulate on the discoveries he has
made during her absence.
How many of US realize that our
libraries are as much part Of our
personality as our style in dress :?
Only that which is good wholesome
brain food, should be allowed space
in our libraries. Here might quote
. poem, by one Of my favorite au-
thors, which also expresses my senti-
ment:
Dreams, books, are each world;
and books, we know,
Are a substantial world, both pure
and good.
Round these with tendrils strong as
flesh and blood
Our pastime and Aour happiness
will grow.
Could we, then, include anything but
the best in our select circle of
friends? might go further and
say that an individual may be judg-
