In other words, start right when you are young and when you are old you will not bemoan the fact that you have not lved right. Btart right and you will serve God. The time to start right is when you are young. Most Christians have become Christians be- fore they are 20 years old.. In 'an audi- ence of 1,00 a preacher asked them when they had accepted Christ and he found out that out of that 1,000 893 had become Christians before they were 2 years of age. I was out in a brickyard several years ago and saw them making brick. They would put the clay in & blg machine— something like a huge sausage-grinder— and grind it up fine and then spread it out on a big platform and smooth it out just the thickness of the brick, and then a man would turn a big wheel and the knives would cut up the clay, and fellows would put the pleces In wagons with shelves and carry them to the kiln and burn them. I picked up some of the clay before it went to the grinder and I could mold it any way I wanted to. I picked up one of the bricks after it came out of the grinder and I could etill mold it. 1 picked up some of the clay that had latd in the sun for several days and by try- ing hard I could still bend it, but when I picked up a brick after it had come out of the kiln, try as hard as I might I could not even dent it. It was burnt hard and it would always remaln that way. fol- Children Like Clay. Boys and girls are 1ike that clay. When they are young God can mold them to do His way or the devil can mold them to do his way, but after they are old it is hard to change them. It is hard to change a habit. If you don't think so some of you boys just try it. Try to get up early every morn- in gand wash your face without being told and see if it fsn't hard Everybody wants to live a pleasant life and there is mo life as pleasant as the Christian life. Everyone wants peace and my Bible tells me there is no rest for the wicked. Yon dow't have to be told that an apple is good. You don’'t have to be (told tHat bread and butter is good for you when you're hungry, or that water | is good for you when you're thirsty. You kmow it from experience, you've tried it. T don't need to tell you that religion is good. 1 have had the experi- ence and 1 'w that there is no life 80 pleasant as the Christian life. So start when you're young and you will always feel better. My experien 18 that you will feel better if you live right. A mother in Chicago had a little girl, and shortly after she was born her eyes became closed and everyone was afraid she would be forever blind. Time went on and the doctor told her mother one day he thought all that was the matter was that there were eat on the child’'s eyes, and advised her to o to a specialist. So she took her to the spe- |clalist, and he raid that was all that was |the matter, and he peeled back the skin {and put the medicine in and bandaged |her eyes, and told her mother to keep her in a dark room for three months. At the end of that time, she had put |in the medicine every morning, noon {and night, and the specialist sald she {could take off the bandages, and then |her mother took her out, and she saw the flowers and the trees and the grass, and she sald: “Oh, mother, why didn't you tell me everything was so pretty?” Her mother told her she couldn't describe them to her and let her know of the beauty so she could undefstand, that she had to see for herself to really know. S0 you have to experfence religion to | know the joy of a true Christian life, I can tell you about It, but you won't understand until you have tried it. Lead Useful Lives. You want to lead a useful life. No mother or father wants their children to be usele Every boy and girl wants to be use You can graduate from several colleges and be a professor or a doctor, but unless you're a Christian your work will bo a faflure. You must serve God to do your best. I had a friend who was asked in by a vice president to see him when he was dying. The .vice president was Hannibal Hamlin. My friend went and began to talk politics and money and events of the day, but the presi- dent stopped him and said: “Don't talk of politics and money. That fsn't what T want to hear now. All that confronts me now s religion, and the knowledge 1 am saved.” ‘So ¥ you live and be president and have not been a Christian you have |lived & useleas fife, but if you have lved a Christian life and are not a president or do not hold any office you have lived & useful life, and 1f you have God in | your Itfe you will o to heaven. While I was in the Young Men's Christian assoclation in Chicago 1 was standing on the corner one night and a man came along with his toes sticking out and hada ragged sult on and a slouch hat, and asked me for a dime to get something to eat. I told him I wouldn't give him a dlme because he would go and get a drink. He sa'd: “You would not let me starve, would you?* T told him no, but that I wouldn't give him the money, for him to go to the Young Men's Christian assoclation with me and stay until after the meeting, and |1 would take him out and get him a {#00d supper and a bed. He wanted me to do it right away, before going to the Young Men's Christian association, but T told him no, I was working for some one until 10 o'clock. Ho he,came up to | the meeting and stayed through the after meeting and was very much interested. |1 saw that he used excellent language |and questioned him, and found that he was & man who had been adjutant gen- | jeral of one of the central states and had | |at one time been the editor of two of the | b'ggest newspapers. But he said he got | | tarted wrong. - Instead of going to school | he had played hookey, and instead of 0ing to Sunday school he iiad gone sud | played cards, and he had taken to drink and this had pulled him down to his present condition. I went with him after ! | the meeting and got him a supper and a | bed, and went to some friends and got him some clothes. I asked him if he had any relatives and he said he had | |one son, who was a bank cashier, but he had dizowned him and his pleture was taken from the family album and | his name was never spoken in the house, | {all because he was now down and out {on mecount of booze. I wrote to the boy | and said: “T've found your father. Send me some, money to help him." He wrote |back and said for me never to mention |his father's name to him again, that it | | wasnt ever spoken around the house and that his father was forgotten. I replied: “You miserable, low-down wretch, You can't disown your father and refuse to help him because he is down and out. Send me some money or I will publish the story in all of the papers.” He sent | me 85, and that's all I ever got from |him. I took care of the old man all | winter, and in the spring I went to a | rellef soclety in Chicago and got him a ticket to his home and put him on the train, and that was the last I ever saw of him. He lived a useless life because he had not lived for Jesus. He had been adjutant general and editor, but his life had been useless. Talks to the Deaf. I was out in Jacksonville, Ill, many years ago and was sent to a deaf and dumb asylum to make a speech. 1 asked the superintendent, Mr, Gillette, how | they expected me to talk te them. He speech. They watched him and he told | them on his fingers what I was saying. | And When I had finished and had given | the invitation seven or eight of those that heard me came forward and said ” they wanted to live for Christ. 1 asked the superintendent why they couldn't| | learn to talk, and he said because they were deaf. ' If someone had plugged up | your ears when you were born you couldn't have talked. They had never | heard a word and didn't know what it sounded ltke, and although they had just | as good throats as some of you, they | | eouldn't say a word. A boy came tn about 8 years of age and | I asked him how long it would take him | to learn to talk. He sai§ about seven or/ elght years. Another came in, about 16| years of age, and I asked him how long | | it would take him to learn. He was the | most brilllant boy in the class and prom- ! ised to be the valedictorian, but the wu- perintendent sald It would take him | twelve or fifteen years to learn to talk. 1 asked him if it was harder as they grew ' older and he sald it was, and that after they had reached a certaln age they would never be able to talk, The things I learned when T was a boy I remember, while some of the things 1| learned later 1 forgot. | (Coprright, Willam A.
