the greatest thing Of all was love.
He said afterwards, Now abideth
faith, hope, love. these three, but the
greatest OF these is love"
That is about the hardest thing
in the world for people to see. Quite
unmindful OF the example Of Paul
protesting Christians continue for
the most part to put their theo-
logical notions above the obligations
OF love. We need not look toward
the prosecutions Of the past for the
evidence OF that. We see these evil
dences all too widely in American
life today. Men Of different relig-
ions and denominations assume to-
ward one another attitudes Of sus-
picion and distrust. In some in
stances there is bitter antipathy and
a hostility that breeds injustice.
This could not be II to be a Chris
tian meant to pass through Pauls
experience Of discovering that love
is greater than faith, and that I'M
orthodoxy in relation to the redemp-
tive love OF God is far more impor-
tant than unorthodoxy in relation to
the dogmas or practices Of some his
torio church.

be love and truth in seeming unor-

TONIGHT.

Paul Stark Seeley, member OF the
board of lectureship Of the First
Church of Christ, Scientist, Boston,
Mass. lectured this afternoon at the
Second Church of Christ, Scientist
Delaware and Twelfth SITS. Miss
Antoinette Ernestinoff introduced
the speaker. He will also lecture at
8 p. m.
His address, In part, follows:
Christian Science shows us that
men have been trying to solve their
human problems by clinging in
thought to a supposedly good God
and a frail. oftentimes bad, or sick
man as constituting the real order
Of existence.
This is like reasoning that the
sun sends out shadows instead Of
rays of light. Reason is abandoned
when we say that an altogether good
cause can create an inharmonious
and sinful man. We shall have to

fession is confused with a censori-
Gus, distrustful, prosecuting spirit
and practice.
A Lesson for All
Let each man bring this lesson
home t. his own heart and life. If
he is like Paul in honesty and earn
estness is he like Paul in finding the
meaning OF love? Does his outlook
need changing? Is he on the wrong
track?
The thing Of first and greatest
Importance is to be loving-to be
dominated by the spirit Of Christ.
Zeal and energy may do harm unles
they are guided by love. If we are
going in the wrong direction the
first thing is to get going in the
right direction.
This is conversion. A great many
people need TO experience 1t who
have never thought of themselves
as vile sinners. and whose neighbors
have never thought of them In that
way. But the man who has been
along the wrong way. however con-
scientiously he may have been mis-
taken. when he had found the true
way OF love and light. understands
how far he has been from God and
from his fellowmen, and he learns to
think of himself as Paul, the proud
PharIsee, learned to think OF him
self. as 1.-THE chief Of sinners"

God, and a God-like man."
THAT is, we must come to think

as possessing a nature and qualities
that are consistent with the nature
of God. Is there anything illogical
in asserting that a good God must
make godo man, and not an evil
one?
Every thought OF unselfishness.

TIE ERE is one of the greatest
III stories in all history.
Probably next to the birth
of our Lord no event has been so
significant, or so important in its
historic effect as the conversion Of
Paul the Apostle.
We call this event the "conver-
SION; in reality it was the enight-
ening. In a sense Paul did not
change. He had always, as he tells
us himself, been a man of good con-
science, earnestly striving to live
up to the light that he had. But his
very earnestness and intensity were
driving him in the wrong direction.
It's hard to stop man like that.
But Paul was arrested in his course.
He saw the error OF his way, and
he turned into the right path.
1t is not always easy to- see the
error Of ones way. Ones faults,
sins aid shortcomings are often
more easily perceptible, and are
more readily acknowledged. But
bigotry and prejudice, or some
higher sense of loyalty, seem bind
men to certain ideas or to a certain
course OF action. A man will con-
fess wrong himself. while lie will
defend his group, his church and his
party.
Saul, to give him his Christian
name, was a good man pursuing a
wrong course. He had to make a
clean break with his environment.
He had the wrong outlook. the
wrong set of principles and funda-
mental ideas. He was hidebound
against new ideas. He resented
change and progress. He was furi-

He did not see that truth is ever

So he was a prosecutor. His blgot.
ries and preJudices made him a po-

the garments of those who stoned
Stephen-despite his effort to be

Curiosity and Fire

If you were to get d letter in the
mail with one corner of the envelope
burned off, wouldn't it arouse your
curiosity? One day not long ago about
1000 people in certain community
all got letters which came in enve-
lopes that bore marks Of fire. The
lower left-hand corner on each had
been burned away. This unusual little
thing attracted much attention. A
merchant about to send out circular
letters to the 1000 people on his mail
ing list wanted to he sure of getting
,}eople to notice the letter. Searching
the envelopes did the trick.

Morse Gave Name to Ship

The word "smack" in fishing smack
is of Morse origin. The Danes and
Norwegians called their vessels "shek
ka'' or shake. These were long, lean
galleys, and the resemblance was
further suggested by the dragons or
snakes head which often formed their
tirure-head Later "a in history, when
The Dutch became the great seafaring
people, the word passed into their Ian
guage, slightly altered Ito suit their
tongue) to "smak." The Dutch boat
was of different build, being fat and
hroad-heamed. We in turn took the
word from the Dutch, and turned 1t
INTO our own smack. using 1t at first
or the small sailing cutter which used
to act as a sort of passenger tender
for sea-going ships. Now, when steam
is almost universal, we contine the
word almost entirely to the fair-sized
open sea fishing boat which works by
sail.

triumph, set up In conspicuous place
at supper, and often kept in the farm

other parts OF the country the doll
was supposed to be representation

Hertfordshire the final handful was
called Mare" and the reapers

mare! A mare!" was the answer.
This custom, called "Crying the Mare, y
refers to the time when the corn, be-
ing grown in open spaces, was often
trampled down and spoiled by wild
mares. In Devonshire the last hand
full was called the Mack, and the Gerry
