Even the most recent dictionary is inade- quate to furnish a nomenclature for the latest theories of scientists and new religionists.

In all this complexity and ob- scurity®and jargon of strange terms, which are the shop talk of our "new" literature, "new" art, "new" psychology, "new" _refigions and "new" physical eclences, our generation takes a queer sort of flattered by ed" culture.

Even bobbed-haired and bobbed- brained youth may be taught the tr truth that all the greatest ideas are simple, and old. Strip one of our verbose "advanced" thinkers of his vocabulary, and he would have to revert to the gublime simplicities which the ages have tested. There is real need that we learn to make a distinction between cleverness in non-essemtials, and grasp of the great central veritics. There aré too many Greenwich vil- iages who think that knowledge of how to est Italian spaghetti in the approved style is a mark of real worth-whileness, Once the chaff of worldly sophis- tication is separated trom the wheat of true understanding, it becomes clear that tial wisdom is as old as the , apd as widely dis- tributed as the sunshine. And it manifests itself in the common ways of ordinary human relation. ships. Behold, The Great Idea! Once, into a stale world that sorely needed rejuvenation, thére came a really New Idea--embodied in a Person. That idea was noth- ing less than the Supreme Being is ot a cold and terrible and Distant Diety, 'sadily offended and holding bumanity in terror; but, that God is a loving Father ,a kindly King, a tender Shepherd, who is deeply con- corned for the happiness and true welfare of all mankind. In short, this Great Idea was that God's other name is Love. Incomprebensible though it was ot first to a narrow and intolerant and fears world, this Idea Was expressed in a Man. The most over-whelming truth in thé whole Bible 1s that all of Himself that the Infinite could convey to human un- derstanding was wrapped up in the earthly character and conduct end counsel of Christ. All anybody needs to know, or can hope to know, about God is to be read fn the lineaments of the life of our Lord. Jesus incarnated the ternal, and made plain that all of His thoughts toward the children of men are Father thoughts, of love, and tend- erness, and forgivemess and of yearning desire. Right here ts the core of all the teachings of the past three mouths' Sunday School Lessons in the early Ite of Jesus. They are but various facets of the one diamond of truth. Chirist, the human, fully represent- ed God. Every act and word of the Lite lived amid the holy hills 'of Syria was an expression of the na- ture of God.

ELLIS Ours is the day of new ideas. At Says, "the express image" of God's ad- person. ------ Is God Up Or Down? Does that supreme truth lower God, or does it exalt man? Is God's greatness not magnified by the mer- cy that made Him crowd close in compassion to man? ls forgiveness any less divine a quality than pow- er? Was it more of a fask for the Creator to set his ~lory resplendant in the heavens than for Him to ex- press himself in fullness in the perbon of Jesus. For when seeing the Stars and planets, man merely wom- ders about God; but when seeing Jesus Christ, man adores and loves and serves God. All we need to know about God, and all that we can ever grasp of his nature, is to de found fully "expressed in Jesus Christ, his |' one Son, our Saviour, On the other side of this awesome truth shines the message of the 1ift- Ing up of man. The highest tribute ever pald to humanity was when God came to dwell in human form, to show men salvation, and to set an example of mortal possibility. Every life that Christ touches be- comes lifted up. All the séhools and teachers and philosophers that the centuries have produced have not done so much to exalt the human race as has the example and spirit and power of Jesus. Hoe has béen the world's highest education. Our hope for a better tomorrow for the natione Més only in Christ. It is well to talk of a warless world, but it is better--and a shorter rote to the same end--to talk of a Christ- controlled world. Peace cannot come except by the accepted sway of the Prince of Peace. Social Justice, which also is a necessary antesedent to world peace, will never be realiz- ed except at the feat of the Carpen- ter of Nazareth. A Persian Parable. Fully to review the early life of Jesus would require volumes; so I shall merely tell, by way of illus- tration of the major message of the Master's ministry, one of the Persian tales that I have heard in that far-off land of romance, never have seen in print. It is a story of a man who died and went to heaven's gate; but was told by the guardian angel that he could not eater, except he brought earth's most precious possession as his ad- mission fee. Back to mortal Ife the rejected man went, pondering long as to what could be earnth's most precious treasure. Surely, he réasoned, it must be the matchless jewels in the crown of Cyris the Great King, So he searched until he found that dazzling diadem set in gold; and bore it to the portal celestial. But the angel on guard spurned ft, saying, "The etréets of this eity -- OLOCK ONLY DECORATION If you have an old clock that is particularly individual and of which you are proud, place # on the man- tel and let no other plece detract from it by its proximity, The entire wall above the mantel may be free of any hanging, eo as to emphasize the lines and beauty of the clock.

Away the discomfited mortal sped, convinced that, since wealth availed not, power surely would; and in time he returhed with the sword of Alexander the Great, sym- bol of completest conquest. "Alexander fs dust," sorrowfully replied the angel; "and the least of our messengers slew him in his frailty and shame. Earth's strength is but as weakness before heaven's Bate." Rebuftéd, the applicant gave himself to thought for a long time; and eventually returned with . the lost Wisdom Books of King Solom- on; for, reasoned he, "It is wisdom that wins with the celestial sentry." Shaking his head sorrowfully, the angel replied, "Man's wisdom is idle folly in heaven; where all things are known fully. You must bring a gift tar more precious." Batfled, the man once more re- turned to earth and ranged far and ! near; but in vain; he could find nothing precious enough to take to heaven. So he resolved that he would return to the angel and re- pont his failure; and accept his doom. On the way, he passed a poor, bro- ken, bleeding beggar by the road- side; and he stopped to minister to him, weeping in sympathy the while. He was still weeping when he reached the angel's presence. Before he could report his complete failure, the angel stretched forth his hand in excitement crying "You've brought it! There it is!" "Brought what?" asked the be- wildered suppliant. "I have come only to confess that I can bring nothing." "But, see!" replied .the angel, picking a glistening object from the man's cheek: "you hgve brought earth's most precious possession, the priceless 1 of compassion. Enter into honor and bliss."
