A Sermon for Today
Greater Things to Come.
~ REV. JOHN r. GUM.

Text: Come up hither and will
show thee things which must be here
after. iv.1.
Amazing as have been the scientific
achievements of the past century. we
are only at the beginning of things,
according to a volume / recently read.
Chemistry is still in It's infancy. We
have not gotten beyond the a, b, C of
the possibilities in the field of cleo
tricity. We have only started in the
development of the power resources of
the earth. The discoveries and inven-
lions of the future will be more
startling than anything we have yet
witnessed.
In view of the wonders already
achieved by the ingenuity Of man. none
of us will dare question these prophesies
OF the greater wonders yet to be
achieved. Time was when the world
laughed at the man who proposed
something new and apparently impos-
sible, but the man we laugh at now
Is the man who questions the posi-
bility of anything. We are beginning
to realize that we live in a world of
inexhaustible resources and possibilities
But all this relates to the material
side of the worlds life In the realm
OF the spiritual, as well as the material,
the future will bring TO pass develop
ments and achievements far beyond
our present conceptions. The Bible
prophesies the coming of the time when
the knowledge of the Lord shall cover
the earth as the waters cover the sea,
and when the kingdom of God shall
have universal sway. AS we move for
ward toward the fulfillment of this
prophecy We shall witness glorious
things, Of which the half has never
been dreamed or: imagined.
Let our men of<science lead on But
let US have also men of spiritual genius
able to lead us on TO greater spiritual
life and achievements.

OUR CHILDREN
BY ANGELO PATRI.
Interrupted Play.

''Now you children run along and
play. Don't call me for anything short
of fire for want. to get this work
done. Don't interrupt me. Now re-
member. Yesterday you called me
about SO times for nothing at all.
don't want to be interrupted"
''All right, mother"
The children went out to the vacant
lot nearby where they were building
hut and its belongings-tunnels and
chimneys and gardens and wells and all
the other joyful accessories. Fred was
up on the roof struggling to make two
rolled-out tomato cans into q CHM
ney stack and he had Just succeeded
In making the two edges lap on
one section when his mother called,
"F-r-r-r-redd-eee."
IAN right" Fred struggled on with
the slippery tins and the wiggly wire
and forgot all about chat call.
'F-r-r-redd-ee. Come right over
to call you. Come right over here.
This minute. You hear me?"
I'm coming"
He let go the wire and the tin and
they clattered to the ground. Fred
strobe of in bad humor. What you
want?"
That's nice way to speak to your
mother. And me trying to give you a
treat. Working my head off to get
ready to make you some ice cream for
dinner. And you make yourself deaf
when call you, And grumble. Here.
Go down to the store and bring me
bag Of rock salt. And hurry"
Fred flew. The sooner he got that
salt the sooner he could set that CHM
ney and they simply must make a FIRE
III that hut tonight. The potatoes were
waiting for the roast and the feast must
20 OH.
Breathlessly he delivered the salt and
went back to his work. He had almost
fastened those two tin stacks in place
n-"F-r-r-redd-eee" startled the
calm. Come over here want you"
Muttering dangerously Fred went
back once more.
What you want now?"
Il forgot the vanilla. Run right down
to the store quick. and get me a bottle.
Hurry. The custard is waiting
Is there anything else you want?
Cause I'm not going back to the store
again. For goodness sake. Why can't
you make a list Of what you want and
not keep me running all day for stuff?
I'm not grouching. Well. 1 don't care
II never get any ice cream II I have
to keep running for things all day. Aw,
1 did not"
OF course, that spoiled all the fun
inside the house and out. You cannot
interrupt child's play and expect him
to be tremendously happy. Once start
ed on his idea his whole being, body
and spirit surges ahead full speed
When you stop him it is like tossing a
wrench into the machinery. It is not
to be done save in emergency.
The boy was right to demand that
errands be listed and done in their
proper time. Mother did not want to
be interrupted and forbade the children
TO do SO. but she did not think that
they had the same dread of broken
threads as she had. Plan the day and
let the play time and the work time
go on serenely and smoothly. without
interruption. Interruptions are a pain
in the mind.
