C. aa second class mail matter EXCUSES. We folk who arc t busy to he good 'itifiiH xvouhl llkf to find .m me good ""'I lawful ex cuse for our conduct. The other fellow may finl time to go to urh and always lie in his neat, lie get the praise for liin ir a valued churchman ami when he come to. ,pas in his check the prcaen'or will tell about what a good citizen he xvas ami how he lived a life worth to In pattern ed after. J Wit the fellow who is t(!f bu.sy, for varim.s nasotis to give much tiiinc to the church, if hi' could hear the sermon preached over his lifeless form would hear mighty little siH alwuit li iuil sd f. V are not dipose to pick an .argument with the churchman. Iliit. there is .some excuse f r the busy man not being alwaxs iu h'.s .seat at the church, whether you axlmit it or not. ThU world is here to he beautified by man. It is hi.s duty to make it bl hs( in like tin nv' and turn the dessert pla.ces into fertile gardens if pos sible. Man is the tenant. The Creator is the landlord, to u.se a common illustration. The- landlord puts his projer ty into the haiwl.s of the hus bandmen in! tells them to look after hLs interests. Such ..s the illustration iimiI to represent the relations that exist between man and the Cn at( r. Now tin facts in the eae are that tin man who -makes the most rep irls back to headquartei.s is often the very fellow who Ls doing thf least. The man who pets so busy that he noglcct.s to make daily or even weekly reports about his work1 is usually doing something worth while. And when the landlord comes to make the f'uuJ account with his tenants no doubt he will find many i f Iris servants who lie done him ex cellent service who have- said very little about it. 1'os.si.bly the best work found to be d.ne will be tin t of men who have Wen so busy" they have rarely written home. ' It otkM; was the ili a of seme people that the only way to serve the Creator was to git busy in the church. Now many are holding that every man who inaUes better eon litions on the earth is a co - worker with Cod. The man who miiko two hladtn of gras grew where only Pile grew before; the man who! tr'ivis to tin- world a remedy for some die;ie and thus relieve' suffering; the man who tata- the undeveh d virgmm.il at:d makes it rich ami productive; the woman w ho localise of her su 'rior mental an I spiritual train ing gives to the world s ns and daughter! who become valued and useful citizens all these are eo workiig with the Creator f make this old earth a letter place . for man. Aid all this is not said wi'h any intention of discrediting 'he work of the churchman, hut rather to do justice, as we se :t, to the man who is so hty an swering the calls of human :t that he is IK -t able to meet the d nuinds of t!loe who se li'-'e fn 111 a .'.if t'el'ent standpoint. We are made to wonder if Sa:nt lYtcr will t urn a deaf ear to any win has helped to make this Id earth a bct'tV place duriri his tay even if he passed m h s Jeck.s without having met the de mauds of the ehiirchinaii.
