He who has had no trials to overcome has missed the real joy of this world, “We should thank God that we live in a world in which we must strive. The savage of the South Sea islands is a good example of the ultimate ef- tects \of ease, “We should instead emulate the spirit of our forefathers who met their hard- ships and sufferings by cheer will pow- er and fairly wrench their homesteads and comforts from savage nature. “One of the greatest causes for thankfulness is that out of the great war will ‘probably come church unity. !
