Turning to the fifteenth chapter of Corinthians, the 26th verse, we find these words: "The last enemy; that shall be destroyed is death." " . Again, in the fifty-sixth verse, we find, "The sting of death is sin." , Death and sin are the twin vampires that fasten them selves at the throat of humanity. Time was when they were not, and time is to come when they shall not be. . The history of man reveals to us that they appeared together, and to gether they shall disappear. The sting of death, came only when sin came into the world, and ever since, 'the human race has been in the toils of a relentless, undying toe and the battle always seems to end in defeat. It was that that des troyed the several 'splendid systems of philosophy! developed by the early philosophers. Yet Plato stood ; vVry high, and almost pierced this cloud that overshadowed the jearth. He did not, however, because he failed in the sublime conception of a great eternal world beyond, where everlasting life awaits all who merit it. , I Some students of nature have come to the conclusion that she is red in tooth and claw, and that she doel not care whether the blood stains are of the guilty orj innocent. Huxley, one of the greatest exponents of this phase of nature Lhas stated his conclusion in somewvhat this form: "I see no reason why things may not go on eternally as they are, and I often hope, for the coming of a great comet that' will ex tinguish life on this sphere." I ' There are other students of ftature who have! observed this same phenomena that Huxley has palled at ind have come to the same conclusion. They find nature ret ; in tooth arid claw. They note the evidences of the strugglt "for life. But they have looked, too, beyond, and discoverec another struggle just as powerful, if not so evident. ' Son i-one has expressed it as "the struggle for the life of others." Every plant that spreads its leayes beneath rays of the sun, every flower that in beauty divii fragrance to the kisses of passing.zephyr, pp ' - its life by seeds, and in the fulfills ' Every bird thaLXu'.U.-. a ,v for its eggs, and in brooding tenderly over tu .. . iving up' its hope of another summer that the birdlings j..ay go out into the sunshine and sing their songs to Nature's God-- .; -The savage gorilla sits beneath the tree whose branches shield his mate and their young and listens for the dreaded cry of the prowling enemy of the jungle in search of food, and it knows if danger comes its life must be given in combat to save its little ones. Here is the struggle for the'life of others. . - - The savage goes out and .seeks for game, and, hungry as he may be, touches it not, until he hafc brought it back to the child and mother waiting in his wigwam. Love began when the first human child was born, when thought and care for the child took precedence in the mother's heart, when selfishness gave way to self-sacrifice. This love is the deadly enemy of sin, and as love's kingdom waxes strong the reign of sin is weakened. All real advance in civilization is an advance in self- sacrifice. It has long been a debated question as to whether we are really very much beyond the civilization of the Greeks and Romans. It is discussed today in the school-room and n the public forum, and we may even hear a hearty defender of our times, expressing his opinion of our civilization,'hold- ng up our Schools and Colleges, our well-paved streets and ailways, telegraphs and telephones. But these are not the measures of our actual advance. We have made great strides beyond the culture of the Greeks and Romans; we have and still are advancing in the breaking away of classes, In the putting of all men on an equal footing as children of a com mon Almighty Father; in beneficence, kindliness and self sacrifice in a word, in placing altruism where selfishness once held sway, ine strusrirle for seli-liie crivinir wav to the struggle for the life of others. It is by belief in the power of love that sin will be'eon- luered. St. Paul tells us to "overcome evil by good," because he knows this is the only way to root out evil and place the standard of right securely in our hearts. It is this hope in the final triumph of good that, after all, makes this universe seem worth while. Talk of its vastness, and this brings no relief. Tell us of its grandeur, and there is still an unsatisfied desire for something that rises above it. But when we realize that this earth, just as we find it, the best battlefield for the growth of character, and that beyond and above it, stand justice and truth, hidden only for a time, but surely coming forth greater and grander than all el.-e besides, then will fresh hope pierce the darkest cloud that ever sheltered the earth athwart, and the triumph of love over sin be accomplished. Then will we fill our appointed place in bringing forward the great Judgment day, when all our efforts will be measured in the light of self-sacrifice and love, and our reward will be to see our Pilot face to face, wno after His great sacrifice of love on Calvary's crest, rose from the grave on Easter morn and pro claimed, "I am the resurrection and the life." Go to church tomorrow and seek to become fervent fol lowers of the risen Christ. - ; :r j ' . TENNESSEE HIT BY A T ORNADO (By Associated Press) Lebanon, eitn., April 15.
