A Sermon for Today
BY REV. JOHN n. GUM.
The Moral Law.

Text-~"unless Thy law had been my
delights I should then have perished."
--Ps. cxixe2.
The law of gravitation never varies;
never for a moment does IL suspend
operation. Its operation Is invariabie
and ceaseless No matter where you
go, it is right there attending to busi-
ness If you jump of the top Of a
building in New York, in London, or IN
Paris, the law of gravitation Is there,
and you get hurt.
The same thing is true of all the
laws of nature. Obey the laws OF
nature, and all is well. Run counter TO
them, and you viii get hurt in some
way. Natures laws never change.
They are no respecters OF persons or
places They are in operation always.
are effective everywhere, and require
the. same obedience of everybody.
There is never a moment anywhere
when ANYBODY can ignore or diSobey
these laws except at his peril.
All this is equally true of moral law.
Let no one imagine that there is ever
a moment anywhere when he can es-
cape the moral law, no more than he
can escape any law Of nature. No mat
ter who YOU are, no matter where you
60. no matter what you are doing, the
moral law is right there on the job.
II never overlooks anybody or anything
When violated 1t never fails to exact
Its penalty.
Unless Thy law had been my de-
lights, I should have perished," says
David. God has established in the
universe moral order. and every one
who runs counter TO that order Is
doomed to perish sooner or later. This
moral order is Just as fixed and invari-
able as the order Of nature. and just
as rigid In the obedience It requires.
co against it, and some time, scne-
where, you will face the consequences.

New Friends.

Shirley has genius for making
friends. Her charm and her vivid per-
sonality gain her dozens Of new pals
every year.
She has dozens of different sets to
which she has belonged at one time or
other. You can hardly mention gay
crowd in the city which doesn't include
some of Shirley's pals past, present ana
future.
Because Shirleys life is round Of
gayeties she doesn't have much time
to take stock of herself and see where
she stands. If she had spare afternoon
this week, she might devote 1t to seri-
Gus contemplation Of herself. And II
she followed my advice she'd very soon
wake up to the fact that she hasn't an
old friend in the world.
All her friends are new. bright, shiny,
dazzling new That's why she's been
attracted toward them. Beside the
brilliance of new friends her former
pals have always seemed bit dull, a
bit tiresome, bit shopworn.
She'd tell me. If l asked her about It,,
that new friends are infinitely more at
tractive than old ones--that they're
more congenial, more easily amused,
less critical.
And the reason for that is, Of course,
that Shirleys old friends know her too
we'll, while her new acquaintances, at
tracted by her charm, haven't begun
to know her yet.
The time will come when they'll be-
gin to understand her a little better.
THEY'LL perceive that she's a bit selfish,
a bit vain, a bit dominating These
faults won't wean them away from her,
but they'll decrease any strong admira-
ton for her
Shirley will begin to be conscious OF
little criticisms. She'll become aware
that she's no longer the bright and
shining star in that particular set.
Oace the crowd gets used to her She
just be part OF them, not the leader she
wants to be.
Instead of unbounded admiration,
she'll receive just the usual measure OF
nattery and attention which is every
girls due.
If she'd stick with the crowd she'd
have A pleasant time with them, She'd
make real friends of the girls and boys.
But that's not her idea of good time
No. while she's out one night she
meets some new friends who rave over
her looks. laugh uproariouse at her
Jokes and make her feel BIG number
once more.
Instantly she is swept away into the
new circle. she loses interest In the
old set. She likes them, yesr-but they're
worn badly After all why should she
stick to a worn-out crowd of friends
when she can always make new ones?
So she goes her way. scorniflg real
vital relationships. clinging to super
fetal ones. As long as she can find new
friends TO make she will be happy in
her own way. But the day is coming
when she'll want some nice Old BUDDY
who knows the truth about her, loves
her for her faults and in spite OF them.
It's silly to give up genuine friend
ship for a superficial admiration. II
doesn't lead to happiness New friends
can replace old ones only for short
time
II you would AL your life with real
friends, hang on to the old ones and
choose the new ones carefully.
