REACTION TO THE PEOPLE

There is a fascination to the crowd
for most people, a desire to be a part
OF it, This desire is in a large part
impulse. And yet there is a reason
for the inclination. There is no doubt
that man is a social being, but that
does not necessitate. ones choosing
to be with many people at n time
and all the time. A man may be
sociable and be with a lew at a time.
Man is more than sociable, as is evil
denced by the half of the people OF
our own country living not in cities,
but in rural districts. The desire to
be independent and to have room is
in a large measure the explanation of
that phenomena. OF course n may
be independent and have all the room
he desires in the midst of a mass. But
few are able t o be independent in the
crowd, and one may become very
much cramped in his ~satisfactions
with room, or rather contracted. The
desire to be with the crowd Is said to
be strongest with the young. And yet
the habit of thinking II Is necessary
to be with it may grow on n that
the old often have the desire 80
strongly that they cannot live, or they
! think they cannot, which amounts to
the same thing anywhere except in
the midst of a great city.
Again one may become so anti
sociable that he has an aversion to
all people. The people no doubt hay
| ~, ,.ntltp ar o.. do uyith sYIph n hnVQlnn-
ment, but the reason for such a turn
in the likes and life of a person is
more likely due to the way one lives
and thus to his outlook IN life.
II is interesting to notice that Jesus
semes to have been ruled by none OF
these motives in his attitude to the
eoule. He sought their companion
ship and he separated himself from
them. But these movements OF his do
not seem to be for any thought he had
for his likings or dislikings OF the
people. He had aprrpose for them
, and hiatt was the life purpose he had
in being in the world and living and
working in it. He did not merely
like, he loved the people.
Jesus was SO much OF the time IN
the thick of life and in hte conflict
of life because of his insistance on the
essentials of life for hte good of all
the people. 1t was his i~nsistance on
these essentials and his effort to put
formalities in their right place thai
brought him into conflict with the
men who were in authority in his ma
ton both in religion and civics. He
waged no battle with formalities and
literalities where they were in the
right proportion TO the essentials Of
abundant life. He took the course
that every one who would succeed
must take at times. He withdrew u
the mountain and thus to solitude
But You may not think of his doinf
so in snlkiness. II was that he Nigh
keep himself fit to carry on his baltl'
for the people to a victorious end.
Most often Jesus withdrew into thu

the multitude and straightaway a
ing them and going into the fastness
of a mountain. In some instances 1t
was after having done a great work
Of healing them OF all kinds OF dis
eases and Affections TO their bodies.
He deliberately went away from the
midst OF that kind OF work, because
they did not understand him.
The action of Jesus in this respect
was not because he moderated the
Importance Of a mans having a whole
body, but because he knew that there
is something more important. Some
times the crowd followed him into the
mountain, but more often he was en-
tirely alone or had with him his dis
cipIes or what became his apostles,
the twelve. When they came to know
