By MARION SWINDELL It is said that Robert Louis Stevenson became a master of English by writing some of his . pieces nine times over. The man uscript pages of Tennyson's po ems sometimes have fifty correc tions on a single sheet. Goethe took a lifetime to write "Faust" and half a lifetime to write Wil helm Meister. To be aware of the efforts of these men in achieving their cwntness teaches us one thing everything has a price on it. Without patience it can't be accomplished. The life that, spurns effort is without results and accomplishments. In other words if you will pay the price you may have it. The skillful surgeon became so because he paid the price of preparation. The artist paints be cause he painfully learned draftsmanship . . . on and on we could go they all paid the price. OUR THOUGHT TO REMEMr BER: "Victory is never won by the sluggard."

LESSON TEXT: Luke5:27-32; 7:11-23,36-50; . 10:25-37. Our lesson for today lies in the Book of Luke. A gifted and brilliant writer, Luke records at length Christ's ; com passionate concern for all mankind. : Christ the Savior, was ever the challenger of the prevailing religious and social prejudices that existed in His day and time; the bringer of hope to the under-privileged and downtrodden, to the despised and the outcast. He was the champion of the needy, and the rebuker of the oppressor. The spiritual and redemptive mission of our Lord was woven like a golden thread through the fabric of His total Person. There is little doubt that he was regarded as somewhat of a radical in His day and time, for the boundaries of class distinction were sharply drawn in Biblical days. The Pharisees and Scribes were educated men devoted to ob servance of the religious laws of their time, wherRaspJ publicans and tax collectors were virtually relegated tcf f" 1 level oi unroucnaoies. vm ii ueiuuuuwui uuncvci , um- j the law, and too little to the thought behind it. In ChrisTs 1 mission spiritual commitment was more meaningful tt$n mere lip service and strict observance of ritual acts. Christ firmly believed in going where He was most needed, and this was His stance when criticized. "They that are whole need not a ohvsician: but thev that are Sick. ..I came not to all the i righteous, but sinners to repentance". (Luke 5: versus 31 and The superiority manifested by the Pharisees came in for severe rebuke from our Lord. He did not hesitate to say that their attitude was judgmental, rather than redemptive, und He put them to shame many times, for He viewed spiritual Integrity in a far different light from that of His critics. Christ's compassion extended to all mankind., .it was not reserved only for those who followed His doctrines. The woman whose only sob &as raised from the dead and : restored to her was not Of trie Christian faith; Christ's heart was moved with pity for her sorrow and His response to her need was instinctive.! No conditions of service were demanded in return fortne boy's renewed lease on life, f3r this was not Christ's way . Christ was merely demonstrate::, by example, that. compassion must, of necessity, Involve itself in the hapless plight of others.. X y ! Christ's compassion showed itself ag-'nln the humane nd tender treatment he accorded the, si. '"1 woman in the house of Simon, the Pharisee. Repentan. "S offered find accepted with all the gentleness of Spirit L followers had come to love and respect. : Any sincere Christian is, of necessity, v strained tojac cept Christ's attitudes as his own. It is eay for us to pity someone we do not particularly like, and to feel compassion for those whn nr dear to us. The true test of our petr"al worth, however, hes in our ability to feel compassion ty all men.. .as He did..

"Daddy, Daddy," cried the chil dren, their fears forgotten, as the room resumed its safe proportions in the light. Gaily they helped to light the candles and build a roar ing fire.
