To the "Bluejind White."I would like to offer a few weirds

of commendation .on your excellentpaper. I find the "Reminiscences"rery interesting, and hope they

will be continued. Though wemay not have been acquainted inlammonton in those days, it is a

pleasure to read of the progress theschools have made. It is com-meudable to the pupils of thosedays that the "honor plan" seemsalwayA_tQjbay-e_taken_thej>laceojfa monitor. If the hongr plan wasmade more of in controlling. andgoverning our Town Council meet-ngls, the saloons and pool rooms

would\soon close their doors, andtend greatly toward making moreworthy citizens in this'pur "town>eautiful."

The essay on "Education" Ithink especially .goodi-and-containswonderful inspirations which aresnre to rise in the' thoughts andicarts of all of us.

Even though our school daysmay have passed, there are alwaysmany valuable lessons to be learnedrom the school of life, and present

opportunities for good are count-

sincerelysiinfe the questions, andabide by the outcome.

(a) Who can show wherein^Christsinned?

Viewed by ordinary standards, andcompared with other earthly careers..the life -of Jesus was entirely freeIronr the vices of human nature. On.the basis of the Decalogue, the Moral:Law, any Intelligent code of ethics,one must.decide as did Pilate,-He is'without fault. His relation in thisrespect to other religions Is striking.'Mohammendanism simply . absorbsHim. Tho contact of Hindirtsm withChristianity has led to reforms in

jlndfa, Confucianism is delighted tofind It contains resemblances to themoral code of Jesus. Modern scepti-cism in the persons of Renan, Napo-leon, Goethe paid tribute to Hisblameless life.

i But Judge 'Him- by the far higherstandard of His own teaching. Givethe Sermon on the Mount Its high-rfst idealism, and it will still show no•spot or taint In its author. His su-premo Inve IB nli that even the Imag-ination can ascribe to a sinless char-

/ficter. HU code of ethics seemft'-now,as It did 1,800 years ago at the hori-zon ot humanity's journey towardrighteousness. Who ran convinceJesus Christ of sin? What fault wi l lyou find In Him? In what detail, notsimply of.practical l l fo, hut of life asIt*'might be oven In heaven, did Hofall short? But If to err la human,Inerrancy Is divine.

1 (b) His second question, In WhichHo bids them search Ills life andteaching tor falsehood, IH perhapsmop diff icult for us (o apply. Wo

'are.so accustomed to accept true anduntrue, by jiroportlomi and relations,that the moro thought of nnstandard of 'vorlty In vague.

We?;go back then to our questions.A sinless man arid one who, speaksthe perfect truth. What will you. .dowith Him? He asks you the ques-tion He g»ve to the children of Abra-ham. If 'He Is without fault if Hegives us pure truth,' He Is the Son ofGod! Will you believe In Him asyour Saviour? N. R. M.

WHAT ONE LITTLE GIRL DID.

When Mr. Wnitfield was preachingIn N"ew England, a lady became aChristian, and her spirit was drawnout in prayer from others. She.could persuade no one to pray withher but her little daughter, about tenyears of age. After a little whileGod saved the child. In a transportof holy joy she then exclaimed:

"O, mother. If all the world knewthis! I wish 1 could tell everybody.Pray, mother, let me run to some ofthe neighbors and tell them thatthey may be happy and love my Sa-vior."

"Ah, my child," said the mother,"that would lie useless: for I supposethat, were yoii to' tell your experi-ence, there Is not one within manymiles who would not laugh at you,and say It was nil a delusion."

"O, mother!" replied the girl, "Ithink- they would bollevo mo. Imust go nv.er to the shoema-ker und tell hlni; he will belloveme," (

She run over and found him at| work In his nhop. She begun by

lolling him that ho mum <l l<> ,nml that lit! wan a Hluner, iindthat. Hlu! was u nl i incr , but that her

all that was to come. Its nobles were-luxurious and proud. They oppressedthe poor. There was no Justice in.the courts. There was heathenism oft '

'.nvery hilltop. .There -was licentious-ness in every valley. Israel, thathad never risen so'high, had neversunk so low. The iniquity that hadsmoved the (laming rebuke of Amos-and"Micah,- the Inlqulty.against which,Isaiah made his ~offer,T "Hereajn^I;send me," moved Hosea also with hotindignation and profound grief.

It Is easy to be angry ••with evil; itIs not so easy to.be pitiful. John's-"Little children, love .one another"was more difficult than his summoningof fire from Heaven. Our Lord'sdivinity shines forth more clearly InHis tears over Jerusalem than in His-whip of small cords; less in Hisj"Woeunto you, Pharisees!" than In Hts ,.:''Father,'forgive them!" Hosea wasallied t° mercy, rther than Judgment, ..jand thus he IB one of the greatestand noblest of the. prophets, j

It "ought to be easier, for us thanfor Hosea to imagine God's sorrow forhuman sin,"since we know-so muchmore of what God has done I or the-world. The long-processes of crea-tion antecedent to man, the bound-intricacy of^the universe, the bound-lessness of design, the endless evi-dence of loving thought, all tills wasquite unguessed by the Hebrews ofold. . - -• .

Hut a loving heart can uiidt rstand 'love better than the shrewdei t an*best-furnished head; and such a heartwas Hosea's. He had put himself, asit were, I n - t h o place of the Almighty.He had thought, "If -these wejchildren who had thus transgi •ossod.
