ABIDE U mi ME
By Henry F. Lyte
Abide with me: fast falls the eventide;
The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:
When otner helpers fail and comforts flee,
Help of the helpless. O, abide with me.
Sift to its close ebbs out lifes little day;
Firm's joys giow dim, its glories pass away, E
Change and dtcay in all around I see; E
0 Thou Who chang. st not, abide with me. EE
1 need thy presence every casing hour;
What but thy grace can foil the tempter's power? EJ
Who, like Thyself, my guide and stay can be? ESj
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide withme. :

NO COMPULSION
It is expecting to much of youth, and altot-ttlar too much of the
averrge grown-up, that in the absence of crisis threatening ovr very
existence as a free eounlry. the real j slice and tairncss of the pur
pose behind compulsory nr.ilitary tr.-irg will be understood. For that
reason compulsory military traing and compulsory military service in
our free countiy probat ly will have to be abandoned during times of
peace. OREGON VOTER.

BIBLE READING. FOR
THE WEEK
Thus saith the Lord. In an ac
ceptable time have I heard
thee, and in a day of salvation
have ) helprd thee: and I will pre
serve thee and uive thee for a
covenant to the people, to estab
lish the earth, to cause to Inherit
the desolate heritages;
That thou 'mayest say to the
prisoners, Go forth; to them that
are in darkness, Show yourselves.
They shad feed in thewaaand
their pasture shall be in all high
places.
They shall not hunger nor
thirst; neither shall the heat nor
sun smite them: for he that hath
mercp on them shall lead them,
9'-n by the springs of watershall
he guide them.
And I will make all my moun
tains a way and all mv high
ways shall be exalted.
Behold, these shall come from
far; and, lo, these from the north
and from the west; and these
from the land of Sinim.
Sing, O heavens; and be joy
ful, O earth; and break forth in
to singing, O mountains; for tne
Lord has comforted hia peorle,
and will have mercy upon his af
flicted.
