How many pause to think that it was not a 1 ittle thing, hut the Joy an<i (Jlory of Hea ven itself that the Lord gave up for each of us. I imaginr t*iere are Arch angels in Heaven who can sins: far better than any of our noted artists, and yet Jesus Christ forsook their music and heard instead the jeers of the mob'at Calvary because he rared for, loved us. The great trouble wiih the modern young folks, they get half truth and imagine that it i* the whole truth. A Lent for instance which consists of giving up things just for the sake of giving them up, would not* please Cod, because it would be such a silly thing. And Cod does not like silliness, even holy silliness. Service is what Christ • alls for from His flowers, and there is always something else which goes with service. Last Summer we all recall the great activities at the Military Trair ing ramp at Piatt, burg, hosts of the prom inent young man of a great many cities speiit their \ac;itions there under the rT,'.-t rigid military discipline a i ! that I it-cause it was r.ece-sary for the sue - I'f'S of the training. he< ause there wa so min-h for the buv s to learn :* service to their country. • I>id you ever hear of the Church be intr called.

Lent is a I 'la t i. urg i.imp fo. Christian souls. NHw a man who g< es into tiainiiig for the army is noi allowed to pick and choose which regulations of the training camp he will keep and which he will neglect. He gets his orders 1 rom those in ( harge of the army and he keeps them whether he likes them or not. If the orders say he shall eat army rations and nothing else, he eats army rations and nothing else even '.hough he has a very great dislike for beans. If there is a lecture on tac tics kouif? on nc is present, and it me lump is supposed to \>e drilling he is at drill. If the greatest singer of the ajce yavo a concert in Plattsburtf and the soldiers are ordered to .stay in camp ho must stay in camp. K specially this year it would seem that the Army of God ouirht to he tflad to k<> into training. This year the whole world is under a jrreat strain.
