Despite All, Quiet Hearts Promised By The Master In Day Os Frantic Fears And Activities, The Old \\ ord Os Rest Comes To Human Hearts —- Recollections Os A Nazareth Carpenter Shop.
By WILLIAM T. ELLIS Worth a trip to Denmark is the sight of Thorwaldsen's great group of sculptures in Copenhaged. "Christ and the Twelve Apostles.” The Twelve are far overtopped in artistic excellence by the figure of Christ. A replica of this famous statue stands impressively in the rotunda of Johns Hopkins Hospital. Baltimore. This is the most satisfactory portrayal of Christ in marble that I have ever seen. The pose is one of strength and benignity. The compassionate Master is portrayed as saying, “Come unto Me. all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" — the Scripture that is the core of today’s Lesson. Small wonder that the great white figure is a benediction of peace and reasurrance to all the suffering ones who pass through the great hospital. For the words incised below the statue represent the goal of all human hearts — the harried mother in the home, with her brood about Tier; the distracted business man in his office; the statesman burdened with large cares; the toiler wearied with the load of labor, the poor and the bereaved; in short, the whole mass of mankind seeks rest. Old Saint Augustine's familiar words come to mind: “Thou hast made us for Thyself, and our hearts will never be at rest until they rest in Thee.” A poet, Frederick Langhide, once wrote: “Oh, some seek bread—no more — life's mere subsistence. And some seek wealth and ease —the common quest; And some seek fame, that hovers in the dstauce; But all are seeking rest.” One by One We have been seeking the futility of attempts to remake the world by wholesale measures. Probably there never before were produced in a single generation so many grandiose schemes tor reshaping society. All ignore the perfectly obvious truth that the unit of change must be the individual. It is only one by one that mankind can be transformed; and modern reformers are too impatient for such a process. But Jesus was never led astray into these fields of mechanized, large-scale changes. With Rome's power and methods ever before His eyes. He never spoke a word of emulation concerning them. He saw mankind as separate lives, each a child of the Heavenly Father. The needs of the race did not present themselves to Him as a mass affair, but only as the concern of each human being. His way was the way of the changed heart for every one. Always we shall arrive only at failure if we try to improve upon this Divine plan. Reformers in a hurry hope to bring Utopia, if not the Kingdom of Heaven, overnight They remind me of a Chinese patient whom I once saw in a mission hospital as I made rounds with the physician. He was a man bloated with dropsy, and to my lay eyes, doomed to die. But he challenged the doctor, with vigorous complaint and impatience, because, although he had come to the hospital two days before (after years of the growth of his disease) he was not yet cured. He wanted quick results, like the modern reformers. In a Nazareth Carpenter Shop We should not forget that Jesus was trained as what mechanics call -a practical man.” His long years in the Nazareth carpentery shop made Him an individualist. Out of the experience gained there e spoke His deathless messages. His words, “My yoke is easy, went back to His life as a carpenter. Once, in Nazareth, I sought out a primitive carpenter shop, having no interest in the traditional shop of Joseph, a tourist site of more than doubtful authenticity. I found what I looked for- a *'" d °«' e9B room, the floor covered with shavings and the place cluttered up with timbers and yokes and plows.

ed between his feet. His bow string augur and home-made adze and an- , tlque saw were the very same sort of tools that Jesus handled. And, like Nazareth’s best-known CarpI enter, his task was the making of yokes and plows. Jesus had made . many a well-balanced and smooth yoke before He said, “My yoke is easy.” Point is added to the Master's message of rest by the fact that, before ever He cried. “Come Unto Me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden." He Himself had labored with the toilers and been ' heavy laden by life. The shoulders 1 that later bore the cross had often been bent beneath the heavy loads of a workingman; and the hands that were nailed to the outstretched beams were not the soft hands of an easy-living scholar, but bore f the callouses of manual labor. It . was Christ the toiler, as well as i Christ the teacher, who offered the i priceless boon of rest to a weary world. Modern machinery has lift- . ed many loads from human backs ! since Christ's day; but the cun- . ning old world has not yet discov- . ered any material method of lift- . ing loads from human hearts. A Person, Not a Philosophy There seems to have been a i slump in the vogue "Don't Worry" societies, which throve mightily a , generation ago. Their programme ■ was too thin to last. Peace is not ■ to be found in a philosophy, but in ■ a Person. The essence of the great . offer of Jesus, of rest to troubled i hearts, is the personal character of ; His promise: “Qome unto Me.” Just as the highest happiness of i the average person is found in a ■ great human love, so the satisfaci tion of the spirit’s deepest desires i is to be attained only in Christ ' Himself. Having Him, no other lack matters. As we have turned from reading the other pages of this newspaper, with their heart-sicke'X'S I records of crime and suffering and r international strife, it is a bit diffiI cult to accept the conclusion of our Lesson that peace and rest are ; the normal privilege of man. God ’ never intended that hearts should , be mastered by fear and fret and ■ fitfulness. The Good Life is the . real life, and designed to be stand- . ard among all men. “His service is i perfect freedom."

CfcSNAPSNOT GUILD. • HOW UNUSIIAI.! .81. mSEWnaif w
A picture snapped from inside the house and through a window often proves to be a fascinating bit of work.
IT’S almost unbelievable but it is true that many amateur snapshooters have the notion that it is only the unusual that is worthwhile snapping. When they travel, a camera is taken along to get pictures of new scenes and new faces but they use it around their homes only on special occasions. "But," you may say, “I’ve already made good snaps around the house. What else is there to shoot?” Nobody can answer that question tor you directly. But it’s dollars to doughnuts that there are dozens of untouched picture possibilities. And all of them interesting as the ones already in your album. The secret of finding them is simply a matter of keeping your eyes open. Get the habit of looking at. things—everything—as though you had never seen them before. It’s amazing the way this habit will sharpen your interest —now dulled by sheer familiarity—in even the most commonplace things. Some of the finest pieces of photographic art have been results of appreciative eyes in the heads of stay-at-homes. The pattern of sun and shade on the front steps, the

fascinating interplay of roof lines, tree portraits —are typical of piotures that may be made at home—• unusual pictures of usual subjects. Don’t ba 1 afraid of doing things differently. It’s a tonic to tackle old subjects from new points of view. If, to get a shot that appeals to you, you have to upset the “laws" of safe-and-sane snapshooting, don’t hesitate. If your eye enjoys the scene, whatever it is, the chances are that your camera will enjoy it too. With such helps as the inexpensive photo-flood bulbs (for which efficient reflectors are available) you can do your snapshooting indoors as well as out. Present-day cameras, films and lights give you unlimited scope for your snapshooting. Today almost any picture is possible—and at any time. Os all words of praise for the snapshooter, the sweetest are these, spoken by a friend: —“Well, would you look at that! I’ve seen that spot every day for the last fifteen years and I never dreamed it had the makings of a picture like this.” Maybe you’ve heard these words already! Congratulations! John van Guilder
