out all cigarettes before discarding
them.
We knew a blind man who smoked
cigarettes, and on many occasions re-
member his care in handling fire. Every
match he struck would be felt to be
sure it was extinguished and then
broken in half. Cigarette butts were
ground out under foot. This man knew
the danger Of carelessness with fire.
Man invented fire. Nature, excepting
possibility by lightning, creates no fire.
Man must take the responsibility, or
rather, the carelessness of man, must
assume responsibility for destruction
by fire.
Under present conditions, we urge
extraordinary precautions, and pray
for natures aid to relieve the present
hazards.

Personal Trust
Lesson for April %, 1863

Many signs have been sug-
gested to help tell the difference
between genuine religion and
limitations. One of the best takes
the form of an old saying: RE
hgion is never real till it gets
into the first person singular. F."
That is to say. religion at the
talking stage, if that is the only
stage. is not yet vital. An athe-
list and the Pope could talk
about religion till they both
were tired; but the Pope would
be talking from inside Christian
experience and the atheist talk
ing from outside it. So even if
the atheist were a better de-
batter than the Pope, his argu-
ments would not be worth much,
because he is talking about
something to which h himself
is a stranger. Religion to be real
must be uved, personally lived
Personal Trust
There are three essentials for
personally experienced religion.
l. Personal trust. 2. Personal
pledge. 8. Personal performance
These have to be essentially per
Sonal or they are not genuine.
This weeks study is about
that first point: personal trust.
The two Psalms selected, % and
46. both breathe a strong spirit
Of confidence in God. But OBJ
serve what this conf d e nc e
means. It does not mean aSsur-
ance that no harm will come to
the believer. It does mean con
fldence that whatever comes to
the believer. he can take it, be-
cause he trusts in the God who
is over all. There are two kinds
Of freedom from fear; one rests
on an assurance that there is
nothing to be afraid Of, the
other rests on the assurance
that although there may be, and
probably will be. fearful things
ahead, with God by our side we
may be sure nothing is going to
be stronger than He. The writer
of the 23rd Psalm knows there
is a Valley of the Shadow of
Death. The writer of the 18th
Psalm knows the kingoms of
the world may totter and the
earth melt. But neither Psalm
list turns pale or trembles at
such thoughts. Il will not fear
for Thou art with me-" says one.
THE Lord of Hosts is with u.s."
sings the other. If your fears
are your own, so is your trust,
II it is real.

Longwood College is the outgrowth
of Methodist College, which was in
operation in Farmville when Virginia

More Care With Fire

E1RE has destroyed more timberland
and young woodland this year than
in the past several years. Hazardous
conditions in the forests, created by the
unusually dry Spring, are no excuse
for the destruction of property by fire.
Carelessness of man causes fires. Under
hazardous conditions man should be in
telligent enough to exert extraordinary
precaution.
One fire started near farm pond 1t
is possible that someone fishing at the
pond fllpped a lighted cigarette into
the dry field, resulting in fire that
destroyed hundreds of dollars in farm
income. The careless acts of humans
cause fires not nature.
Another fire is believed to have been
caused when a passing motorist flipped
a lighted cigarette besided the road.
One can not be too careful in snuffing

Fear Of Death

The one disaster facing us all,
the one dark experience of
which we may be certain at
every moment of our lives, is
that one day We each must die.
II this be cause for fear, then
we must live all our lives in
fear. Some other calamities we
dread may not come to pass,
but our own deaths certainly
Will. Now both these Psalm
lists, Of Psalm % and as, knew
death awaited them. The first
one uses the words "all the
days Of my life" This is an
other way of saying IT'LL the
day l die" The second psalm
list draws a kind of picture of
the modern world. does he not?
with wars and earthquakes and
TIDAL waves. a world where sud
den death is common. Yet
again neither poet is disturbed
or alarmed. The 23rd Psalm in
particular appears to point be-
yond death to forever" with
God.
