8X. PAUL'S EPISCOPAL.
CHURCH
(By Rev. Frank E. Pulley)
"For the bed Is shorter thaa
that a man can stretch himself
on it; and the covering narrower
than that he can wrap himself
in it." Isaiah 28:20.
>< Jjfc# leading statesmen of
Jsata^'a day are urging the peo
Jtfe' tit sign up with Assyria and
iSg/pt In # "foreign alliance" for
military protection. Isaiah does
<fc0& agree with them. He aays
that Judah can make herself
stronker only by returning to a
strong faith in Jehovah, absolute
ly relying upon Ood in all crises.
By the somewhat humorous
mental picture of a man trying
to go to sleep on a bed too short
for him and to wrap himself in a
covering too narrow for him,
Isaiah Is Illustrating a man try
ing to live by,a short-lighted and
Godless way of life, If
Recently In Caltforaft a woman
put this question to eight boys.
"If you were an aviator, about to
take part in an air race, the win
ning of which would bring you a
large prize and much glory; and
i if by accident you discovered un
guarded the plane belonging to
your closest rival, the person
most likely to beat you in the
race, would you damage that per
son's plane so it could not com
pete with your's? If not, why
not 7"
Four of the boys said they
would damage the plane. Two
said they would not but only be
cause they were afraid of set
ting caught, and the other two
dodged the question.
A teacher In a Baltimore girls'
school put the same question to
sixteen girls. The girls had had
religious education, while the
boys had not. Every one of the
sixteen girls answered "No."
True, one or two of them showed
mere fear of detection, as for In
stance one who said: "No, it's
not right. You would get put in
Jail." A typical answer, however,
of the girls: "No, beaause one's
life means more than money,
fame, and glory."
I do not believe the girls show
ed up so well because they have
higher ethical values than boys,
but mainly because their parents,
and Sunday School teachers, had
taught them honesty and the
sanctity of a human life. The
boys would have done Just as
well If they had had religious
education. Among unchurched
youth today there Is a lack of
appreciation of the value of hu
manlife. Like Isaiah's text, any
phllMophy of life which excludes
honsaty and reverence for peo
ple's lives, is Indeed a "bed too
short- for a man to stretch him
self ?n it, and a covering too nar
row to wrap himself in it."
Tbe Biography of the Naiarene
shows Hia feelings on the subject.
"But who so shall -offend one of
these little ones which believe in
me, it were better for him that
a millstone were hanged about
his neck, and that he were drown
ed 1q the depth of the sea." The
doctor who exerts himself to the
utmost to save some injured was
trel (we call him), gets his idea
that every life is infinitely pre
cious, not from his Science, or na
ture, or evolution, but from
Christ. Aa (or honesty, look at
the "rewards" Christ offered His
prospective follower*. Floggings,
betrayals, hatred, exIlA,' poverty.
More than any' 6th0r 'one thing
needed today lb oar hour of tran
sition, are homes In #&lch there
lis a stronger emphasis upon God
ly living. More of us must de
clare "aa for me and my house,
iwe will worship the Lord." Or
> say with Solomon, "Better Is a
dinner of herbs where love Is,
than a stalled ox and hatred
therewith."
The Immortal Twenty Third
Psalm could never have been
written by a man who thought
of Ood only In the synagogue on
the Sabbath. Hla canvas Is the
great out-doors where he followed
his humble occupation of mind
ing sheep, and back of tbe lyrical
poetry of the Paalm there are the
eternal verities, the sure founda
tlon-stone of confidence.
How aeldom do we find today
such a note' of cnfldence as David
i strikes three times In those brief
i verses: "I shall aot want," tell
ing of hla utter confidence In
Ood'i ability to provide all neces
sities "I will fear no evil," b*
? cause David knows he baa conse
crated every ounce of hla body
I and soul to the service of the
King, and that the King will

today but for eternity. He has
weighed all other ways and found
them inadequate. ;
What a contrast there is in
Ihfs great hymn of peace and
strength to Isaiah * parable of a
man tumbling and tossing around
upon an unsatisfying course of
life, trying vainly to cover him
self with a covering too narrow
to fill his needs of a loving, eter
