SABBATH KEEPING IN .THE NEW HOME AND

How many boys have I>E#'anned" ~~ agreeable, di1ficult, or dangerolisfeats, :Jjiere, ly because someone .... dared .. ", them to do" so. There is an exhilaration ,in overoottiing:. oJ" stacles, an immense, satisfaction' and sense of power, for the one who, is' nei~er a ~ ~k.ljDg nor a coward, in breasting. the tide and prov; ing to one's self that. it 'can·-be 'done:, . <_

The old command, ·4.~ember, (:he ~oath day to keep it holy;.· when -considered:in the light· of modem· conditions in home-and ~husi~ ness, presents a distinct· challenge . ~ ua' to prove our mettle.

YOUNG PEOPLE'S WORK

IT IS TO TRINK. IDEALISM: THE NEED- OF'THE BOUR

In times of darkness and confusion the su­preme need is light. The light of great ideals has been the saving fore:e througq all the cen­turies - richer in -vitalitY. than any race, more abiding than empires, more ~during _ than monu­ments of stone. , Ideals are practical. Like the beacons that guide men' through the seas ,and !!I.e air, they are most needed in times -of stoim-and difficulty. _'

Some nin~teen liundred ,years ago.Jesu~ Christ gave toinankind thegreate~t" bo4yof idealism the world has known. -'WitH-no-oe: of the 'trap­pings' of classrOOlilj' 'curriCtiltun.giades, -or·· d~ ~e~; _ in _an ,~' -,crus~ed;:w.i,th~,,!gn9raDce;;super­stItion, brutality, and corrupti~y .~the .. ;lDere force of living and'teacliin~~nst ~<Jstarted a new 'epoch, an epoch'":s6:~Significant->;thattbe ca1-end.~r:,,~dat~~" .Jr()~ L~Js::bjrtJl.ESo ~JtOwuful,,";~J.iat it bas, .eha.JIg~d. ~e, _~noIe~;c(1Urse .of ~gman\,events, -so-beneficetlt' that "wtota; -minions 'ot"' men have been 'lifted- higher -iri;tht'-seaIe ~(jf 'life., '" ~ . -'

Is it not plain that what the world needS just now is a new devotion to· great ideals? In, state­craft, in busm, • ess, in indu~~- in law~in the church, in S:cience, or in t~g can anything be more intenSely fruitful and practical than a renewed, faith in the· bigher ... and . finer thhigs? Hour -after hour, day after day. we -are all fac­ing situa:tions where there is choice between the bigh~r and the lower. It takes but a little com­mOD sense and a- will to choose the bigher path -to change the whole course of a life. a- school. a nation, or an age. A ,little more faith, a little more idealism, and the confusion of today may give way to the fairest dawn the world bas seen. ~rom .the JOIWnDl of the NGtimstJJ EdtI-CaHOII Association, By J D7 Elmer M orgtm, Editor.

YOUNG PEOPLE'S PRE-CONFEREKCE MEETING

Milwaukee International Christian Endeavor Conyention was brought to the group by Rev. J. F. Randolph and - Rev. Carroll L. Hill. These talks introduced the theme of the new two ... year program for Christian Endeavor in an inspirational' way and led up to the d.isctJs... sion groups.

REPORT OP THE CONFERENCE PERIOD POR THE AGE GROUP TWELVE TO SEVENTEEN YEARS~

REPORTED BY BE 1 I Y' DALAND AND VICTOR SKAOOS

I Win Be Christian. Witnessing tOT ChriSt in ~Y IndividU41 Life.

This first part of our discussion was brought -to us by Pastor Sutton in a clear manner. We~ went .. down .the list of ways to do this (as list.ed on· the pampblet sent out by the International . Society of _ Christian En .. deavor) -and ~ each one to quite an extent.. These were some of the tbjngs we talked about: - ,

,A - personal: ,deciSion to accept Christ as Savior and to follow bim

277 . W~g through sharing our faith ·~th

others and in our -individual efforts to lead others to Christ. .

Wi-tnessing tOT Christ: 'I1n-ough My Chu"ch.. We disctJssed how we could witness for

Christ: By becoming a member in our chUt'ch and

by making it and our Christian Endeavor 80'

cieties interesting and instructive. Other ways are the Christian use of our time, tal ... ents, and money, the churches in their SUp' port of mjssionS and church c&operation.

Second Period-Pnlfessor Leland Shaw, lead ... 'er of the djscussion.

We talked about the theme, I Will Be C!uistian. The _theme which we have taken represents much. It is a high ideal and when taken seriously involves everything done con'" scientiously. I Will Be .. . the foUr words the meaning is as follows:"I­not others, but I myself. WiII--deteuiiine to be not just to listen. Be to act and talk as a Christian Christian--follower of Christ and his ideals and teachings.

Witnessing to!' Christ in Social/ustice-There is a lot of. unfairness in the world

today. One example of it is in the court. Rich people get out of their crimes which they have committed because of their wealth; whereas the J>09r~ whether innocent or guilty, often have to serve .... stilr sentences. Cbrises ideals were and still are &1:Iongly against in ... justice of any sort.

Witnessing fO'l' Christ in I!,ten1ationd.l Good .. will and PetJ.Ce.

No one should look down upon other races from his own. We are on an equal footing; one is no better than the other. Christ looked upon Negroes, Chinese, etc.:. with the same kind of love he did upon us. ~

I Will Be Christian. Not a single one of us can be a good Christian without fonow .. ing Christ's enmple as closely as possible..

In his delightful artd in$ruCtive way PJO.. fessor Leland Shaw led:us in t:bese ideas

When Moses died he left a gap equaled only by 'Paul"s death,' fourteen centuries later; but- Joshua very ably took over M6ses"s work and led the people into the' promised land against the inhabitants, of Jericho. With God"s help he captured and divid~d the land among the tribes. Joshu~"s work was nearly done as far as anything important is con .. cerne.d .. when he divided the promised land to his followers.
