REGRET.
There is no moral man who has
not felt the tremendous signifi
cnnce of the word "regret." No
nge escnpes it. It is the henrt s
sorrow for pnst offences. Have
you ever stood by the grave of one
denr to you and been compelled to
remember how much happier you
might hnve made Hint life which
has now passed beyond your
rencb? Hns n hnsty or unkind
word ever come back to you and
repeated itself so ninny times that
you would hnve given nny of your
possessions to have been nble to
recall it? Hnve you ever acted
disrespectfully townrd any one
and then were sorry for it? Some
mny say that it is useless to regret
such things and that what is done,
is done and can't be undone. It
is true that they cannot be undone
but it is by these regretnble things
thnt we cn.i improve our daily ac
tions; regret keeps the conscience
alive in man. ,
The thing for us to do is to be
kind to our friends while they are
with us and not wnit till they are
gone to find out their good quali
ties; the best way to escape regret
is-by forming the habit of doing
our whole duty and avoiding im
pulsive actions. Some one may
snv that he intends to mnke it
right Jnter. But human life is so
uncertain that it is doubtful
whether you will hnve nil oppor
tunity to do so or not.
Another regretnble thing that
frequently confronts college stu
dents is the fnct thnt they did not
apply themselves to their school
work as they should. Numerous
other things could be pointed out
thnt lend to n life of regret but
these are enough to show that the
opportunities which we have to
day will not come to us any more
and hence we should make the
most of them now.
Do it. rif/ht —right now!
Y. M. C. A.
At V. M. C. A. Thursday even
ing Dr. ('. O. Meredith led. He
vend the first two chnpters of -lob.
('oniment ing upon the Hook of
.Job he said that it was the finest
specimen of a drama. Continuing
the speaker gave a brief sketch of
the contents of this unusual piece
of Scripture.
lv. Meredith used this vending
very appr pvia!ely lor nis talk, in
which he spoke of how often we
are un,title to see the divine plan
in processes that seem to us only
the handiwovk of the evil one. He
showed how lob was unable to un
derstand why he wns thus afliict
ed. yet Job bore it believing that
(iod would bring nil things out
well. Even his friends tried to
persuade this diseased man to for
sake (iod. hut Job said that God
was in his afflictions even as He
had been in his prosperity. And
.lob was not fooled. The time did
come when he again prospered in
the blessings of (led. "Thus," the
speaker declared, "all men wi'l
realize that (lod conducts all well
if they will only allow Iliiu to l e*i I
them.
Then tlit? leader brought (his
home to us. lie recognized ;hat
none of us is able to see God's plan
in the present threatening condi
tion of Eur pe. Yet he seemed !•
feel that despite the shadows ai. '
gloom which seem to hover over
the world that there should be
confidence ;hat God could turn all
into a blessing.
The attendance was small—
smaller tliiin it should have Ixeii
to hear a man like Dr. Meredith
talk. We realize that these even
ings are very inviting to one tj
take a walk. But is it profitable
for us to allow that light fanry to
overrule our diety to ourselves,
our fellow students and our God?
Let us think of the two and decide
which is the better: to ioaf for
thirty minutes with our thong I, is
running in a shallow channel or
to spend that time in thinking of
things higher than ourselves.
Which profits you the more?
