THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM, OREGON FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 12, 1924 Tin: HHV7AHD3 , 0T TJPCE .CHJtfSJJAN (Copyright 1024 by San Jose Mercury) . ' U . CHRISTIANITY means much to vast numbers of people,. Its w aspects vary according, to the altitude people hold toward t. To one it means forgiveness for sin arid escape from thC'con equences of yielding to ' human vealcn ess and .temptation. ' To Mother it means jest after a life of patient but wearying toil, , another ' joy and peace following trouble and sorrow. To nother bounding health and vigor instead of. sickness and leapacity. ' To most1 it furnishes (hope for release from intoler ble living tPnitns;jlhrqui:ihel.;'inerciful interposition of a mng Savior. ; It means blessing and joy to come to the Christ un sometime, somewhere, bestowed by God, our.ather. J Everyone has burdens to bear. Some are' heavier than tbers. All have sorrows that sadden the heart. All have weaknesses that tempt when they Would be" strong. All .have one out of the .way. lost Christians expect Christ ;t6 make hem clean and spotless, to lift their burdens and dispel their loom that they may back in the brightness of the Divine cqnnte sanee and share in the blessings of the risen Savior. ; But many , thoughtful,' sincere and devout "men are asking hemselves -what .they are doing to entitle them to .these hoped or blessings. They have unyielding , trust in the power. ".and apipey of !the omnipotent God and have no doubt of the glory of lis life. Neither do theyquestiori the Fatherhood of the great ife nor thei relationship to Ilim. !Biit they are beginning to uestion the plan under which they are promised the blessings f this Divine Life, without being worthy of it. . They see every where examples of the working of a law that brings man reward or worthy effort; everywhere they see proof fh at only those hings one strives for and deserves are blessings! to him. And o thoughtful, sincere men are asking themselves what am I loing to entitle me to the rich blessings of the Holy Spirit. Tcsa Gibbons, Getting Fit for &d Norfolk ,Bout, 7, . . Finds Appreciative Little Fans in .Central Park ; r II it II it it Formulas have, been worked put by which the Christian eliever is assured Jill the joys of the spiritually perfect if he ill accept the plan and obey the injunctions given him, and ast numbers have accepted this plan and rest in contented ecurity as to the state of their souls. But this is an analytical ?e, a questioning,' .investigating period, and men 'are beginning o examine, ad analyze thes formulas to find out if they are ist what they are represented to be. Some people are still so rustfnl that . thev; helieve Tthose who iell them - that thev can . -v nn. nmin nn dlliW ntnnan it llV Wilt TTlt if ' 1 t Mi he keeping of those making these representations, but most men eet such assurances with the request for proof of the truth of Lese promises. '! . Christian people are .beginning to ask very seriously and ery reverently how one can receive something for nothing on is spiritual investments. If one's spiritual nature is bankrupt ow can he obtain the rewards of the rich spiritual life of the laster? ,And the answer is beginning to reach the eonscious ess of the earnest seeker after the truth that he can only obtain hese rewards as he' strive for' and gains spiritual riches for .imself. And as he searches deeper into the'realm of the spirit .2 finds it , to be a region .filled with limitless 'possibilities for 11 God's children. .He cannot gain all ttie riches .of this Jnf injte ife in a day or a year. 1 " ' As he gains wisdom he realizes that these riches only bless ne as he uses them arid his first duty is to develop -the ability to se whatever of these riches he now possesses, and;so he turns i s attention to the rich treasures that already lie inactive within Aa own higher nature. . ,One by one he brings ithese out and uses liem and as he does so he finds they multiply and enlarge and e also develops capacity to use tnem wisely and profitably. Through, his experience he learns the meaning of the parable f the talents. Jle also learns that the Master is not far from ...im but is ever ready to aid, encourage, instruct and bless him :i his every effort." ' " i It does not take one' long to learn from this sort of activity ..at he is blessed, not by what another does now or. has done m iue ptust, uui Dy wnat ne aoes. me spiritual accompiisnmenis f others are profitable to us as they show us the way that we ' tThlle the St. Paul boxer waa preparing for Jila Madison Square battle ; with Kid Norfolk, negro light heavyweight champion.- he found New Tork'a great park & good place to do eome of his out- V' ii -i! : H !lf 111 .

But we' cannot girt; the thrill Of his, broader view urvi less we climb to the height that he has attained.1 ' - There is another joy that comes to the Christian who works out his own salvation under the law of God' and with llis help, and that results from the feeling that what spiritual blessings he 'achieves he deserves because of his own effort. He also finds infinite joy in the consciousness that while he has been enrich ing his own life his efforts that have resulted in this accomplish ment have blessed every life that he has touched on the way.' I It is wise for us all -to realize that 'we must be reconciled to small accomplishments' in the beginning of our effort to enlarge the store of our spiritual riches. But,;if we use , what we have, however meagre it may seem, it willgrow by use and our; ability and wisdom in handling these spiritual riches 'will increase as our riches multiply until we become men in spiritual stature, with wisdom and power to handle wisely the treasures that God entrusts to us. f Then shall, we find our blessings not in receiving the rewards that come from the accomplishments of others but in the joy of bur own achievements and the' uses to which we can put them. hut'-' . r ' V Bligh Vaudeville Program f Today Shows Real'lUlerit Another vaudeville bill of real merit in a cyclonic , program of speed and grace and a wealth of attractive costumes and beautiful scenic display will bo seen at the Bligh theater today and tomorrow. .
