Choir rehearsal at First Methodist Church Eternally An 8-Year Old Boy The mortal mind can not comprehend why the hand of God reaches out and takes the breath of life from the body of a happy 8-year old. The sadness of such a tragic event Is relieved by the sweetness of knowing that these things rest In the hands of God himself, beyond the capacity of human understanding. One great blessing of faith Is the knowledge that God has His divine purpose. Of such Is the tragedy which has touched the family of Hubert Anderson Bourne of Murphy. The little boy died In Georgetown, S. C. in the midst of a carefree vacation with his family. One second's change of time, just a small turn of a boy's hand with a Roman candle, and a family's bereavement ? shared by all who know and love them? would have been spared. But God's design would not have It so. It must be of lasting comfort that death found him within the loving care of mother and father, and even with the ready care of a physician. Little Hubert was partaking of a joy that should belong m every boy ? the sharing of youth's happiness with loving parents. The compassionate heart Is torn with sadness at the passing of his short life, yet soothed with the rem embrance of our Lord's wonderful words: "Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for such Is the Kingdom of God." The life of Calvin Coolldge was stricken with a similar tragedy while he was President of the United States. This man of faith. In his grief gave expression 0 an assurance which applies as well right now. Hubert Bourne will have the everlasting joy of living through eternity In heaven as an 8 year old boy.
