Sin is like a spreading branch, and the miltiplied little sins are terrible as the locusts in troops.

Think of the little meannesses that render at the last a character ignoble; of the weak- nesses and indulgences that disinteg- rate the fibre of character and lead to ‘moral catastrophe. ‘We speak of little sins, but we do not see them in their far-reaching effect. God measures sin by the inward disposition. The meas- ure of the flood is not when it is safely confined behind the dam, but with the dam broken away and rushing head- long to its work do we see the true measure of the flood. Thus it is with hate, covetousness, lust.- ey are to be measured according 10 their natura: tendency and outcome. And the ju ness of this measure is seen in some sudden fall from a great height.

It is the current confined but now finding the line of least resist- ance. There is then the geometrical pro- gression of sin by the law of habit, tending to benumbed senstbilities and a weakening- of the will. Of the litue sins there ty-/be S0 many that one finds himleg ‘ast and bound like Gui- liver in the land of the Lilliputians. One kind, of sin comes not alone, and one sin may then invotve in a’very ‘abyrinth of vice. Sin tends to form se tissue of character and propogates by germs and we have to leara to beware of the germs of moral evil, the little things. We may well take some note of the little things and see which way we are going. We may be headed to a ercat moral catastrophe through thesze little things in our lives, these little things that are the beginnings of great wrongs. Sin is a moral disease witn the possibility of growing worse, but there is also the possibility of better- ment if we seek divine aid with the will to receive it. His help is prom- once to him we still have need to watch and pray, always with our will braced by his cross, always with our soul filled with his love.

He is anxious to have a chance to show his new work to a Norwich au- dience and Lebarre can be the sub- ject for the exposition, if the French- man wants a geturn match, and his manager, Fred Charbonneau, will post the money.
