SERMONETTE
by R. ASHLEY CAKE

What Is Your Life--James Ala.
What is your life? One of our
familiar poets says Life is what
you make it."
This world is not so bad as some
would like to make it:
Tho whether good or whether bad
depends on how we take it."
Making the most Of life is the
greatest of all arts. It has to do
with the life we are now living
and holds its relations in the life
beyond. 1t is the most valuable of
all possessions, for it means moth
ing less than the ability to do the
works of Christ, which we can do
with the assurance that we shall
be with Him in the glorious here
after.
In other words, making the most
Of life is living with an eye single
to His honor and glory, doing what
He would do, loving what He loves,
going where He would go, and
saying what He would say, thus
being living Epistles Of God, easily
read by all men and Fastening the
day when all the kingdoms of the
world shall become the kingdoms
of our Lord. and Christ shall reign
forever.
We do not know where Heaven
is. do not suppose | will until
after my feet shall have pressed
the green sod, but l know every
true child of God is journeying in
that direction, and my faith tells
me that missing members Of our
households are guarding, guiding,
protecting us, and nothing pleases
them more than to look this way
from the invisible heights and see
us making the most OF life by look
ing away from the vain poInp and
glorics OF the world, and trying 10
dc the will Of God on earth as it
is in heaven.

Our time is short. With some
Of us our work is hard, but ii I
can take the hand of some poor
man, woman or child and be an
instrument in the hands of God
and save them from going the
the wrong way; if | can save some
poor creature from committing
crime, from starvation or drink;
if | can throw out the lifeline to
some poor soul struggling with
his stormy passions, before he gets
so far beyond the breakers that no
one can reach him, shall feel that
I have done what God wants me to
do. and what win create great joy
in heaven.
Dear Reader:-The privilege of
of living noble life is within the
reach of all. If you would have
the greatest joy in your life imag
inable, as far above any earthly
joy as the heavens are above the
earth, throw out the lifeline. Lift
some poor soul out of despair;

but a thoroughly spiritual man.

Mount. Place him where he can

Not First Courthouse

The old courthouse at Cape May
Courthouse will soon be abandoned
for holding of courts, but will not
be torn down, as a result fthe
sentiment OF many people Of the
county as expressed by resolutions
by various public groups. :.
The old building has all the at
mosphere Of a building erected in
Revolutionary times, and many per-
sons have been under the impress
sion that it dates from then. But it
is not the original building, having
been erected in 1850. Ground for
the original building was given to
the county by Daniel Hand in 1745,
and was an acre. 1t was built soon
after.

TWO Routes Now Being compIeted
Berlin and Hamnonton
Two roads that VIII invite motor
lists to escape the congestion Of the
White Horse Pike are now being
rebuilt or repaired and will soon
be in condition for traffic. These
are the roads from Haddonfeld TO

The road by way of Haddonfield

used by motorists from Philadel-

way of Medford is not SO familiar.
The Marlton and Medford pike is
most used by traffic to Medford
from Twenty-first and Federal sts..
Camden. 1t is a good road and
straight to Marlton, but beyond
that point twists and turns until
Medford is reached.
A newer and better route is by

town. This is known as Church
road. and is straight with few cross
roads requiring sIow-ups. From

of life.
Each wasted chance for good
Is your own loss.
Each song you fail to sing
Is your own loss.
You may refuse to serve.
Another may step forth,
And when the work is done,
The loss is yours.
Each soul you fail to save
Is your own loss.
Each heart you fail to cheer
Is your own loss.
Some one will nobly rise
And do that which is right;
The joy will then be his;
The loss is yours.
Each unkind word you speak

Each heart you cause to bleed
Is your own loss.
Others will bless and save,
Others will help and pray.
And at the Judgment day
The loss is yours"

The Griffs were ordered to en-
gage in a batting and fielding drill
today before taking their days va
cation. Manager Harris is afraid
that the two days loafing may
take off the fighting edge shown
so Enthusiastically against the White

pill and the fielders running and

Murray's failure to hang on this
year is a matter of regret to Man
ager Harris. When the big fellow
came from Mobile last summer he
looked certain to make good and
become winner. At times he
flashed to the front, but he showed
little consistency. This spring he
has seen little service, except as a
relief pitcher, and Manager Harris
decided to waste no more time with
him.
