MAKING THE COMMUNITY
CHRISTIAN.
Galatians, v.13.25.
Temperance Lesson.
Golden TeXt-Have no fell
lowship with the unfruitful
works of darkness, but rather
even rel them. Eph. VII.

Making the community Christian is
task for every follower of Christ.
The Galatians freedom was i'm
perilled by certain teachers insisting
that they should comply with the
Judaistic requirement of circum-
cision, which would lead according
to Paurs teaching to the adoption of
the whole system and the abandon
ment of Christianity. In his efforts
to preserve the personal liberty that
they had secured through faith in
the Lord Jesus, Paul warned them
that they had been held in the yoke
of heathenism, and that If they de-
parted from the apostles teachings
that were in danger of being held by
another yoke through the persuasionS
of those, who were unsettling their
faith in the cross of Christ. he
sought to confirm their confidence in
a salvation by faith and tried to
develop a spiritual religion that
would be powerful in helping them
to make their communities Christian.
Paul opposed the teachings that en-
phasized the use of external con-
straints in ChristianiZing commu-
nifty. Many excellent and devout peo-
pie have sought to use this method in
their efforts to promote civic right
eousness without regard to the Mas
ter's attitude and the teachings Of
the apostles. Zenos has pointed out
the error of that method:
Constantine and his successors re-
sorted to legislation designed to en-
force Christian ideas Of religion and
morality. In consequence, while the
church grew in numbers, it lost in
vitality. To the extent that it gained
outward prestige it lost inward
power"
Puritan Influences Fail.
In our own land Puritan influence
secured the enactment of laws that
sought to make men better and that
resulted unfavorably. Any attempt to
make a community Christian by law
leads either to the prevalence of
hypocrisy or to violent reaction toward
laxer and non Christian ways of liv-
ing" 1t is only through the infusion
of the spirit Of Christ in the life Of
true Christians, whose lives reveal the
gospel they profess in way to infiu-
ence others to initiate their life and
heed their criticism of the iniquity,
immortality and intemperance existing
in the community, that any neighbor-
hood can be Christianized. No COM
munity can be made righteous by
law. 1t calls for evangelization of
each member of the community, their
education in the ways of the Master
and intense effort to create a public
sentiment that will protect the neigh
borhood from all evil practices.
Personal liberty, that every Chris
tan has found through his faith in
the Lord Jesus, does not destroy our
moral responsibility. In fact, it in
creases it. We are given freedom
that requires us to remember that we
have no right to do what We please.
but as servants of Christ, we must
exhibit His spirit through love, that
has always been the moving, vital
principal Of Christian activity. A
Christian is not compelled to do any
thing, being free to do as he will.
This is contrary to the "behaviorism,"
the new fad in psychology, which in

SUMMERTIME
By d. @. PEATTlE.


When the Pilgrims discovered
America, and their children started to
overspread New England. they named
every flower they saw and every bird
they encountered after some real or
fancied resemblance to a flower or
bird in the mother country. But
science has shown that most OF the
flowers and birds of the eastern United
States are not identical with the Eu-
ropean species.
While many of our plants belong
to the same genus, such as Rosa,
Viola, Delphinium. Ranunculus and
the like, few are of the same species.
But one plant there was which is
the same in both continents. Early
surveyors of the Far West found 1t
as abundant there as in the East. And
that Is yarrow, lover Of the Old World
and the New. and beloved by both.
I often wonder why it Isl that this
pretty weed has made such a success.

ton of modern plant life. 1t is not

by birds. 1t has no thorns to drive
away those that would destroy it. 1t
Is rumored that 1t Is poisonous. es-
pecially to browsing animals, but am
far from sure of this.
However that may be, yarrow is

once beautiful and common-the com.

Everyday Law Cases
Is Surety Discharged IT Creditor
Releases Security Lett By
Debtor?
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

John Wade borrowed $500 from the
Star Finance Co. The loan was safe
one for the company, for John had
left as security his two $500 Liberty
bonds, and his brother, William, had
become surety for the loan, agreeing
to pay it if John defaulted.
Two months later John. in need of
money again, asked the finance COM
pany to return his two bonds. Know
ing that the guarantee signed by his
brother was ample security for the
loan, the finance company complied.
When the loan fell due the finance
company. unable to locate John Wade,
notified his brother and demanded pay.
ment. William agreed to pay it. in
structing the finance company to sell
the two bonds left by John, and for
the first time he learned of the COM
pany'S action in releasing the security.
Because of this fact William offered
to pay only $500 of the loan, insisting
that the finance company had no
right to release the bonds, and that.
therefore, they would have to bear the
consequences of their mNjudgment.
The finance company, however, re-
fused to accept less than the full sum,
as William had signed as surety for
the entire loan, and there had been no
understanding or stipulation regard
ing the security deposited.
The company brought suit for $500,
but the court held the surety liable
for only $500, stating:
"a creditor holding security Is
chargeable with trust regarding the
same for the benefit of the surety,
and if he, without the knowledge of
the surety, surrenders such collateral
security so as to impair the risk of
the surety, the surety Is discharged
to the extent Of the security so re-
leased"

noon and evening are so variously
cut that we find the demands vary
accordingly with the slips we are to
wear beneath them. A slip that may
be just right for an afternoon gown
may be too high for an evening one,
and vice versa.
Problem Solved.
The solution to this small but i'm
portant matter is found by French
women. in having adjustable straps,
entirely detachable from the slips.
The slip has buttons on it where
the shoulder strap should come, and
the strap has two sets of buttonholes
in each end. The strap is buttoned
on high or low, according to the type
Of gown with which it is to be worn.
Advantages.
There are several advantages to
this kind of strap. A light strap can
be attached to dark slip, and will
show no cross lines Of dark material
over the shoulder, giving more
pleasing effect. A pair of shoulder
straps is often the first part of a
