Right to Be Strong. “‘We have no right to thank God that we are strong unless we are ready to use our strength in a Christ- like way,” Bishop McDowell “We dare mot thank God that we are rich if we are also selfish and mean with our riches. We dare not thank God for the fullness of our national and personal life if we rejoice in our fatness and close our eves and hearts to the lean and starving sons of men on our Father's earth.

We cannot sit down In complacency and say with the Pharisee, ‘Lord, I thank Thee that I am not as other men are. The world Is in a bad way by common consent. We need not recite the facts that are all too familiar to us. Look to Burope, look to Asia, look any- where, and your eyes will see enough to cause heartbreak. What is our ground of thanksgiving, then, in the face of all this? . “Surely_this, that we know the Re- deemer Christ and can make Him known to the world that has gone to pleces for want of Him and his re- demption; that we know the Teacher Christ and can in His nae become the truth-bearer, the light-bringer, the educator of the nations in that truth that sets men free; that we know the life-bringer, pattern and power of life and can carry to the | world of shallow and shattered ideals | the ideal that is not a dream, but a living reality; that we know that self- | sacrificing Christ and can share His| serviee, fill up the measure of his suf- | {forings for world redemption until| | His kingdom be come.” | Adjacent to Cleveland Park an impressive whole Home closets. lawns planted with early spring. in Attendance Boss and Phelps The Home of Homes THE COIN BOX and HOW IT WORKS The Coin Box Telephone is a simple yet extremely ingenious mechanism.
