By WILLIAM T. ELLIS > I talked ■ tew days agu with a ' young man just entering jusiraaii lam He has an o|>p<.riuiiliy with ■ a larfee and prosperous newspaper. 1 it pays its writers noturtoualy low wages; hut It acldoni discharges ' rny of (hem. A Joh on this paper la , 1 usually good for a Ute time. J My young friend la weighing the relative values ot aer urity versus self-expression, experience and acbieveuieni. Her ause he is ,i young 1 man of today, he inclines toward ' security. Not for him are the risks | ot high adventure and derring-do. He belongs to a scared generation, ' which, while it talks about "self- ' expression ' really flies the banner of "safety first" — poor stuff out of which to build a great nation in , a new era. (July pioneers are enrators. Somehow. I am contrasting, my , young reporter friend with Paul's > young friend, Timtothy. to whom , he wrote two of the Letters in the New Testament, and whom he loved abov> all bls other associates. Paul pleaded tor personality: "Stir ■ into flam» the gitt that is in thee;" i ( "Let no man despise thy youth.” •'Study to show thyself ... • workman that needeth not to lie asham- . i ed " Along with sage counsel. Pau) | gave Timothy big. hard Jobs to do. I Country Club Colleges Paul would have had scant pa-, tience with the modern definition I ot a certain university as “a tuxur- > i ious country club, for the pleasur-1 able prolongation of the period of 1 ) adolescence He believed ill the ■ educational value ot hard knocks. | aud high adventure, as be sought > to train thia finely-bred youth to' carry on the apostolic labors. That' same task confronts all persons! with a sense of responsibility to- * day We covet (or youth stamina. ' initiative, endurance, and vision of II (he long, rough road by which - greatness is attained All the temptation* ot modem . i youth confronted Timothy, especially that of being an intellectual and - religious doctrinaire, for cults and aberrations abounded In the Graeco Roman cities. It was as easy then a* now to be a (Utile "tntelleclual.” i following the latest fashions in | tarn* and spouting the current; catch-word*, instead of buckling • down to stern, const ructlve dis-' cipline and useful service. "Givo attendance to reading.'' urged Paul. I Fortunately. Timothy did hot have to withstand the cheap allure ot the flutter-brained aaagaxine* and i trashy novels which steal so much - of modem youth * lime This morning I read the hand iHMik of the Philadelphia Christian Endeavor Union, ami it waa inspiring to look over the long roll of ( i young men and women who are, making their lives count in a large , way. who are having the discipline , and plaasuro nf learning to work with others for objectives outside of their own interests. 1 often wonder why more college students do not devote themselves tn Christian Enduuvor .He Wrote Letter* Orrespondmiec.

ton in friendship wuuuded him deeply. The constancy of others was hi* sohue and support. I think Il wa« Charles Eumaer who once grandiloquently declared "I have no time tor Individuals." Whereupon the iM-rsmi addreaaed replied, "Then you have Unmoved ufron God Almighty." There la no genuine greatness without an Interest in individuals. Possessed of this gift, one is sure of a isdlant lite, tree from the blight of selt-cuutsr-cdness. Dry byington once formed "The iatague of the Golden Pen” *-persons who agreed to write friendly letter*, leisurely letters, heartening letters. Whether the organisation survives or not I do uot know but it should have million* ot members. This week's Lesson upou Paul's personal letters, so full of wise counsel for living, should inspire multitudes to sit down aud write those long-overdue letters to the home folks aud to kindred and friends A*-I have watched countless women rush out to rural mail boxes tn see what the postman has left; and as 1 have stood in the < row da in Florida post offices, 1 have had a vision ot what letter* may meau to the recipients. Looking Over a Shoulder Thauk* to the survival ot (our lof Paul's letters — doubtless he i wrote hundred* — we may, a* it ■ were, look over his bent and weary shoulders as he poured out hi* 1 heart to hi* »<ni in the spirit, Tim--1 othy. The second ot these- letter* - is the last ot Paul s writings that I we (MMiKeHs. Both make Inspiring i reading lor youth; a thorough mastery of them is equipment for life. ' They contain sure, clear guidaiu-s ' tor youth in all ot its present probI lems.

There is light also upou the employer-employe situation. The little letter to Philemon, concerning the return of a runaway slave, Oneaimu*. who hud become a Christian and a friend and helpier of Paul. Is unique. It. like the i other*, reveal* that Christ is the i solution of every oue ot life's intrtarte problem*.
