Ambition plays a gigantic part in the life of every person. Of the supremest importance is the ' establishment of the proper values for life, for men to be actuated by high principles. Throughout his brief as sociation with his disciples, Jesus ought to create in them eternal prin ciples by which their life could be guided. ft It is hard for us to realize the en tire effect of the contrast between the standard of living followed by Jesus and the high principles of his phil osophy when brought into comparison with the habits and standards of the . 1 1 1. i; i (tueuuie tuiiunK wiium ne nveu. rjven r '.now, when the world has been soften ed and human conduct improved by his teaching, the difference between the two is still immeasurably great. ' Even the immediate group of inti mate associates, who accompanied Jesus throughout his active ministry, were unable at first to guess the full significance of 'his purpose in life. These disciples expected him to estab lish an earthly kingdom, to seize eventually worldly power and glory and they could not comprehend the truth that his kingdom Was not of the present world, Time and again these followers discussed their, own prominence in the future kingdom.

Then it was that he called a little child and explained that except they became as little children, they would not enter into the kingdom. For, said he, whosoever would humble hin.self as a little child, the same would be the greatest in the kingdom. The disciples did not comprehend at all.

C. ably n aftermath of the conflicting ambitions of the twelve, expressed in a mutual discussion. Jesus answered by laying down the rule hat "whoso ever would become great among you shall be servant of all." On the last night of the life of Jesus on earth, these disciples had gathered with him in the upper room at Jerusalem. Again tfyey had been trying to decide among themselves which one would be the greatest in the new kingdom. So, as a part of the answer to this spirit of emula tion and striving, Jesus performed the menial service of washing the feet of each of his followers as they prepared to partake of' the Last Sup per. The events of the week had been crowded and vital. The preceding Sunday Jesus had entered Jerusalem in triumph, acclaimed by the popu larists. Monday the money-changers had been driven from the Temple. Tuesday had seen him teaching in the Temple, engaging in verbal contro versy with his enemiesho sought to embarrass and discredit him. Judas had begun to ' negotiate for his be trayal. Wednesday, Jesus had been in retirement in Bethany. Thursday, preparations had been made for Pass over Feast and it was for this pur pose that the gathering assembled in the upper room where the last supper became the precedent for the ordi nance ob8ervedthroughout Christen dom today. Jesus probably noticed that none of his followers had volunteered to cleanse the feet of the company a sanitaryv requirement because of the dusty, roads and the sandals worn. Realizing that each felt that such service was below his proper dignity, Jesus, conscious of his own royalty and divinity, assumed the office of slave and performed the task. Peter alone protested. By this act, Jesus once again sought to bring home the lesson that genuine greatness rested upon loving service. "The supreme test' of spiritual (leadership is to be conscious ' of great gifts and make them the instrument of humble tasks," say 3 Francis Greenwood Pea-body. '" & D.
