the words of Gen. Lew Wallace in
Ben Hur." after describing the
orgies in the Grove of Daphne:
Better law without love than love
without law"
These vague and sentimental no.
tionS of the Supreme Being are.
without doubt. responsible for the
widespread moral collapse of the
past Is years. If God does not
hold man responsible for his acts,
and if every one can do as he
pleases. without fear of conse-

traditional moral restraints? The
common slogan OF our day has
come to be. Obey that impulser

love must be welded to law Love
cannot do aught in violation OF its

parents either loving or wise who
let their children run wild. A
father is a good father who re-

pline. No less does God show His
love by insistence upon loyalty to
those moral qualities which are
inherent in His own character.
Were the Divine standards of life

word for human friendship. the one
for good will and the one for good
works. This is the pure. divine and
exalted term used by Jesus TO por-
