In I Cor. 15:1 the Apostle Paul writes of "the gospel. . .wherein ye stand" and in Rom. 5:2 of "this grace wherein we stand,"while in Gal. 5:1 he bids us: "Stand fast ... in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free." Perhaps all this is well summed up in his app eal to his beloved Philippians: "Therefore, my brethren, dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown. . . STAND FAST IN THE LORD, my dearly beloved" Phil. 4:1). But the Christian life is more than a stand it is a walk (which in Scripture refers to conduct.). Once says Paul we walked "in NO ANSWER A young man dashed into the electrician's shop, his face flushed with anger. "Didn't I ask you yes terday morning to send a man to mend our doorbell?" he roared, "and did you not promise to send him around at once ?" "But we did, sir," broke in the manager. "I'm quite sure of it! Hey, Bill!" he called to one of his workmen at the back of the office. "Didn't you go around to Park Lodge yesterday to do that job?" "Yes, sir," replied Bill. "I went round all right, and I rang the bell for over ten minutes, but I couldn't get no ansewr, so I guess ed they must not be at home." Veterans with GI home loans or loans on their GI insurance policies may pay the loans off at any tame, in full or in extra part payments without incurring a penalty charge, Judeon D. Delia mus, manager of the N. C. Vet erans Administration Regional of fice, said today. The minimum extra payment a veteran may make on his home loan is the equivalent of a month's payment, or $100, whichever is less. The Insurance loan may be paid off in payments of $5 or more at any time, DeRamus said. The Veterans AAninistration also pointed out that should a vet eran need money for other ex- pepnses or emergencies, the extra payments already made if the lender agrees, in the case of a home loan may be re anpliiii to regular payments in order to pre vent the loan from going into de fault. world news In fcus The Christian Science Monitor One Norway St., Boston, Moss. 021 1 5 Please enter my subscription to the Monitor for the period checked be low.

In his epistles the apostle also bids ue to "WALK WORTHY OF THE LORD" (Col. 1:10), to "walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil" (Eph. 5:15-17). But the Christian life is even more than a walk; it is a race. Sad to say, some Christians whose "walk" is consistent and commend able, have never come to look upon the Christian life as a race. They never put enough into it so that it might be said of them that they are running. Yet the same apos tle wrote, by divine inspiration: "Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin that doth so easily be set us, and LET US RUN WITH PATIENCE THE RACE THAT IS SET BEFORE US" (Heb. 12:1). The word "patience" in this passage points up the fact that the Christian life is not a short "hun dred yard dash." Nevertheless we, believers in Christ, should put into it all that we have. "They which run in a race," says the apostle, "run all," but they do not all re ceive the prize. Hence the admo nition: "So run that ye may ob tain" (I Cor. 9:24). Those who have not trusted Christ as Savior have not even be gun to stand, or walk, much less to run a race for Him. These might as well forget rewards un til they first accept "the gift of God . . . eternal life, through Je sus Christ our Lord" (Rom. (i:23).

Pinkham a nn ui hoom mwwsil Read Psalm 84 Blessed is the man whose strength Is tat thee; in whose heart are the ways of them. (Psalm 84:5) Once I visited a sick man whom the doctors had told that his days on earth were soon to enn. 1 thought it would be difficult to comfort and encourage him under those circumstances. But my experience in tne noapitai room turned out to be quite different. Without any trace of sentiment ality or Belf-pity, the man said: "I have not long to live, but I am content and trustful. I have laid everything in God's hands. He will guide me home." He had no fear of death, just a radiant ex pression on his face. I left the room with a stronger faith and with evidence of the truth spoken ' by the psalmist, "Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee." Soon after we attended his fune ral, hut to me it was like a trium phant journey into eternity. Blessed are those Who know the fullness of life with Christ. Their lives are meaningful and happy. Their evenings are filled with light, and their entrances into eternity is a joy of trimuph. They go from strength to strength, from joy to joy.

He negligently runs in to an old lady and seriously in jures her. May the old lady re cover a judgment for damages from the boy's father? No. A parent is ordinarliy not liable for the wrongful or negli gent acts of his minor child. The family relationship alone does not make a father responsi ble for the wrongful acts of his child. It must be shown that the father has approved such acts or that the child was his servant or agent at the time.

A minor is everywhere liable for torts which are not connected with contracts. If a person has been injured or his property has been destroyed or damaged by the wrongful acts of a minor, it is just that the loss should fall upon the estate of the wrongdoer rather than the other party who is without fault. It is true that a minor may not have money or property from which a judgment can be satisfied, but neither do a great many adults for that matter.
