We were put on this earth to .make more than a living; we were put here to make a life. It is a ‘ much bigger thing to make a life than tomake a living. Making a living touches only the crust of ’ (an existence. Making a living depends on temporal circumstances, while making a life depends on eternal principles. We are here to live a life, not merely to exist and keep alive. We are here to live as fully and as richly as possible though few people make the most bf their God-given potentialities. Today we seem to be overwhelmed by the bigness of things and consider our abilities so small we do ’ ;nothing about them, yet all great ' /reforms had small beginnings. I The world is not going to be made better by force; this will only come by the quiet orderly growth of individuals and institutions. The fumay be determined by the J ■‘hnustard seed' of education and ’s,the 'leaven' of great truths applied ’ to our daily lives. *• . * i FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH 2nd & Jefferson St. Edward Pacha, Minister j Morning Worship 9:30 a. m. > Church School 10:30 a,, m.

In a little book written by Mary Pickford, the famous actress of silent-movie days tells about a remarkable woman who bad recently lost her husband. They had been a very happily married couple, very much in love. Some weeks after the funeral. Miss Pickford saw this woman again and found that, in the face of her great loss, she was radiating a tranquility and faith that was inspiring. Asked how she achieved her radiance, this was the reply she made: “All the water in the world cannot sink a ship unless it gets inside the ship. All the sorrow in the world cannot sink a person unless it gets inside the mind. I have kept my mind so full of good thoughts, so full of thoughts of others, that there has not been any room for sorrow of self-pity.” This thought from the Friendly Adventurer made my day much brighter. I hope it does the same for you. God bless you.
