Ma well LL follows Human Failures It came to me in what might have been called an idle moment. I was on the train and had tried in vain to Bet interested in a book which I had taken with me to read during my), brief absence from home. Picking up a magazine provided By the railway company for the benefit of the pass- engers, my attention was arrested and my interest aroused by a very striking J2asraph. To me it seemed like the lament of a lost soul, i : the magazine did not belong to me I copiéd the confession on the back of an old envelope. It reads as : "The truth is I have failed altogether to acquire the technique of living. Man is born to be happy, but my haPpiness has always been fat around: the corner. 'Man was n to be free and is everywhere in chains. I have forged my own chains, built my own cage round about me, and beat my wings like an imprisoned peregrine because I can no longer soar." : What a confession of human fail- ure! Yet, mark you, the writer is reckoned a success by all who think they know him. He is cultured, clev- er, prosperous! But I fancy he has discovered that what 'is commonly counted success is very superficial and transitory. It is not easy to rea- son men into such an attitude to fife; experience alone can teach some peo- ple. 2 What a commentary on the culture of our civilization! Hungry for hap- piness, yet compelled to starve. Born to be free, but all the time in chains. Confined to cages built by ourselves. Although it is the confession of an individual soul, it is"equally true of the universal heart. Out of Christ, none can honestly say that he has acquired the technique of living, Man is a sinner by nature and by practice. He sins in thought, word and deed. He falls short of being a perfect personality he would be perpetually happy and absolutely free, morally and spiritually, The stream of human life must have started somewhere. This stream 35 polluted, There may be many con- tributing causes since, but an original cause must be found to explain how the pollution started. Philosophy's answer may be clever, but it is not convincing. Modern science says sin is due to the conflict of the ape and a higher reason, evolved by slow de- grees. The Word of God says in ef- fect, "Sin is any want 'of conformity Ste or transgression of the Law of We are driven back to the Federal Head of the Race to find the cause of all human failure. In Adam.all die. In Christ shall all be made alive. Christ saves you from the penalty of sin by His Cross and offers you the technique of living in the warm light of that first Easter morning.--A.F, IN CHURCH It was an exquisie morning, the cool clear air filled with a liquid chor- us of bird song, and with the frang- rance of May blossom. Half-opened bluebells pushed their way up through the grass in the park, and the chest- nut tree$ were lit with great white candles. All life seemed to be soar- ing upwards, and Jane's heart soared too. The church was of the same date as Mountsorrel, and lovers.of Gothic ar- chitecture sometimes said it was not religious in character. It was a de- licious little building, of faded red brick, with grey stone copings, with here and there a shapely urn as a decoration, The west door was en- tered by a fantastic porch, supported on stone Corinthian columns and sur- mounted by the most elaborate' urn of all.

The Basildon pew was surrounded by high walls of carved wood, and when Jane knelt in it she was hidden from the rest of the church, But she could see the alter, which was raised above the choir by a high flight of steps, and she felt alone with the old priest in his vestments, his gentle voice coming to her like a murmured plain-song, to which the birds in the churchyard carolled a descant, It was unearthly, the atmosphere of devotion which filled the place. Jane, kneeling there when the service was over, and silence had flooded back in- to the church, felt as though she had been caught away (like someone in the Bible, she could not remember whom) into the Third Heaven, there SIMCOE STREET PENTECOSTAL MISSION (OVER THE ARCADE) " Sunday, March 31 Sunday School 10.00 a.m. Worship, 11 a.m. Evangelistic Meeting 7 pm.
