Pleasing results are following an op- eration to his arm which was perform- ed a week ago on his fractured arm.

A Christ, The Unmeasured Man, His Topic Before Men’s Meeting. Christ the Unmeasured Man was the topic for the address by Rev. P. C. Wright at the men's meeting at the Y M. C. A. Sunday afternoon. Gen- eral Secretary F. R. Starkey presided and Assistant Secsetary J. E. Ely of- fered prayer. President James L. Case led the singing, and there was music by Swahn's_orchestra. Rev. Mr. Wri~*+ read v.rses 1 to 19 from the 12th chapter of St. John. The people of that time, he said, did not realize the true worth of Christ. Neither his friends nor his enemies were_able to measure the man. Mar- tha believed that he was the Christ, that he had power to cure the sick, but what _he wished her to realize was that his life was eternal and that by faith her life might also beco~-~ eter- nal. When he raised Lazarus from the dead the crowds gathered as they would In our own day, to see Jesus and Lazarus, and many believed In the Christ. They cast their clothes, branches and palms into his path on his entry into Jerusalem and called him king. but the- did not appreciate his true significance; they did not measure the man. Christ came into the world as a man among men, amongst the poor and ignorant, into all sorts of conditions, in the midst of evil. Thus today truth may be in our very midst and yvet we may not see it. The remedy ever needed and longed for may be at hand. The Pharisees feared that Christ would bring down the wrath of the Roman empire upon the Jews, so they sacrificed him. Christ went, but he took the world with him. The world followed him because he can cure hu- man ills. He can cure human ills to- day just as he could when he stood in Palestine, if we have faith. Christ brought the world more life. The world follows Jesus Christ because hé& brought hope into the world. I feel that the world is filled with paim, sor- row and suffering, but Christ brought into the world hope which makes us victors over our troubles. Greatest of all Christ’s gifts is eternal life. Death is certain to us all, but the hope of eternal life takes away the shadow of the grave. The world follows Christ because he brought to man the things most needed. . Christ is, was and al- ways will be the unmeasured man un- til-we stand beyond the grave and see him as he is. OBITUARY. Dr. Orrin F. Harris.
