NEXT: Mrs. Roosevelt's JU£e tar Robinson may anticipate a deal of trouble in tbe key position he holds now. and consequently be not unwill ing to relinquish it, if he con look ahead to something else as good or better at the first fair opportunity. Parenthetically, it is gossiped that he covets a place on the federal su preme bench. One also senses the possibility that the newly-dominant Democratic ele ment may have a preference for a senate leader whose views are more nearly its own than reasonably can be expected frorp an individual so dis tinctly of the passing generation as the Arkansas veterans.

Be in your place unless prevent ed by some reason, which you can conscientiously give to your Lord and Master. •J. Pray before you come to church. 8. Pray as you are seated in the church. 4. Never engage in any conservation or act after entering the church, which will tend to divert your tho ughts. or the thoughts of others from worship. 5. During the period of meditation thank God for our Sunday school and pray His blessings upon it. 6. Never carry what you think to be the faults of any of our members, away from church. If tempted to do so look around and see some beauti ful soul, whose life is a benediction upon you. 7. Attend the Christian Endeavor meeting each Sunday evening. 8. During the week call upon at least one member of the congrega tion and speak with that one about his church and its influence on his life. 9. Pray for our pastor every day. 10. Tithe.

(The International I'niform lesson for Deoember 18 is -the quart!)- re-! view lesson, the Golden Text being Luke 9:23, "If any man will come after me. let him deny himself, and take up his cross dally, and follow me.") By *>U ALVJN E. BSK.I, Christianity ought to mean imitat ing Christ Ttoat he intended it to be nothing less than this is clear from his words “come after me” and "fol low me." That He himself is the Christian standard is evident from his claim. "I am the Way." “What would Jesus do?” Is always the de termining question for those who would “follow- in his steps.' The first essential to the Imitation of Christ is knowing him. We can not ini tale one with whom we are un acquainted. We learn of Christ and come to know him through the Scriptures. It Is here that God speaks to us. They testify of Christ. Therein is the revelation of Gods will for man. The human conscience is a safe guide to conduct only as it is en lightened and dominated by the Word of God. The reaction to hearing his word is a deeire to speak to him in prayer, prai.-e and thanksgiving. This completes the devotional life: God's Word to us in the Bible, our Word of God in prayer. There can be no Christian standards of life unless we begin here at their very source. The first area to *>e v.esoed by (he Christian standards of life is the Christian home. Here, as everywhere, Jesus is our best pattern. God dig nified and sanctified the borne by the use he made of it as a training school for his Son. our Suviour. In the home we first begin to learn and U. J. Pariott. superintendent. Wor ship service at 11 o'clock. Afternoon service at Spring Valley church, Sunday school at 2 o'clock. C. B.

Here in the plastic, formative years of childhood Christian standards of life are moie effectively taught and practiced. If theie is failure hen- there can be no success elsewhere. Those Christian standards of life which are first set up in the devotion al life of the individual heart and thence work out to permeate the home and domestic life continue in ever widening circles of influence into civic and even international affairs. The good Christian will of necessity be a good citizen. He uill obey the law* of the state because he has learn ed subjection in the affairs of heart and home He will strive to have his nation find ways of peace and good will toward all othei nations. He will cultivate a conscii nee of the kingdom of heaven and its interests transcend ing all nations. Christian standards munt be ap plied to business and as well as devo tional. domestic and civic life. The Christian wll niot only “live and let live.” but will live and help live. Ha will put making u life afctad of malt ing a living. He will respect the right* of aspirations of others, especially those less fortunate than himself. To him money will never become an end, but always a means. He will always acknowledge Grid's ownership and bis own stewardship of all his poesses sions. The spirit of contentment will always serve as an effective antidote to the spirit of covcteousness. Christian standards of life set up and followed thus far will develop suf ficient momentum to overcome all prejudice arising from racial and so cial differences. If “God is no respec ter of persons" why should we pre sume to be? Jesus drew no racial lines nor should we Nor will the maln tc * r.nce of these Chiistian standards of life rob life of its joy or give it an atmosphere of gloom. Rather it will he found that “the joy atf the fljord is vour strength."
