These things loom up big because they are in the foreground of our lives and they obstruct their vision of things and of greater things but whiih seem to lie In the distance. It is the old story of the cares of this life and the deceitfulness of riches ' hoking the higher and better things, sui h as our personal accountability to fiod for every deed and act; such as our duty to perform the things of a day in its day: such as the immor tality of the soul, the giving of the 'orreet answer to Job's great ques ' 'If a man die shall ho live asain ?'

Two thousand students of the Fnlrerslty of Texaa met FecretarlPs Houston and McAdoo when they ar rived at Austin. Tex., yesterday to hold a regional bank hearing.

TKXT-Exodu 28:38, Zecharlah 14:20, ReTelation 72.L Am these three rerses are quoted, it will be seen that there is a connection be tween them and that all have to do with our theme, "Holiness to the Lord " We are given The Purport of Holiness- Exodus 28:36 reads, "And thou shalt make a plate of pure gold, and grave upon it. like the engravings of a signet, 'Holiness to the Lord.' " This inscription was worn upon the mitre of the high priest, who stood as the representative of Israel. The word used for holiness has as its root Idea separation, dedication hence this inscription meant that Is rael was separated unto the Lord. This word may be applied to Inani mate things, such as the vessels and vestments of the sanctuary: but In the case of men, such separation as the word sets before us will result In moral purity and righteousness. How do we need to be thus set apart to Ood' This separation is to reach the heart and life as well as our service One might even go to the foreign field and yet be unylelded to God, so far as the dally life is concerned. Such separation is expected of all Christians, for In the New Testament all are spoken of as saints separated ones. We have heard of a teacher who called the worst cheat In his class. Honest: the most tardy boy, Punctual; the most Indolent boy. Dili gent. As they were so addressed from day to day. they grew ashamed and tried more and more to live up to their names God calls us saints: let us be saints separated ones. The Permeation of Holiness. Zech arlah 14: JO reads, "7n that day shall there be jpon the bells of the horses, Holiness unto the I-ord; and the pots In the Lord's house shall be like the bowls before the altar." This refers primarily to the happy millennial day j which Is coming. At that flm holi ness shall so permeate life that kitch en utensils shall be as holy as the ves sels of the house of God. Even the horses, which were not commonly naed In Israel because they savored so much of war and display shall be ' consecrated: the very Inscription, once placed upon the priest's mitre, shall be found on their bells Put while this passage looks to the fu ture, we mav even now permeate our lives with holiness. Oor diversions may be hallowed. Many are mad at this point, yet our recreations mav be Indulged In religi ously. In order to better service for the Lord. We, may even conrecrate ' some things which, under certain clr- 1 cumstances, would not be lawful. young man found that the very violin which had been a snare could be used to glorify God: this was like writing on the bells of the horses Holiness to the Lord. Business may be sacred A man was told that his heart was diseased and death might come at anv time. He said fo his emploves. "In the fu ture this huslness will be so conduct ed that If mv master comes at any moment. I will not he ashamed " This attitude towards Jesus Christ will make all business sacred All our work may be sancffled A busy life need not hinder fe'lowshlp with Ood Have we noticed that the Levltes acted as butcherc bakers, merchants, lawvers phvslHnq teach ers, and did manv lowlv h1ni. such as lighting the lamps, sween'ng the floors and preparing the wood for the altar?
