Atheists rise against it, agnostics smile cynically, un-| belief abandons it, higher critics deny its claim to inspiration, flames are kindled about if, modernism tries to explain it away; it is laughed at and scorned, but still it stands. Childhood needs a standard of truth; youth a beacon of light; sorrow needs consolation; weak- ness, power; old age, a rod and staff; the weary need rest; when we approach the valley of the shadow all these and much more, they are to be found in our indestructible Bible."

Mrs, M. D. Dear Mrs. M.D.: The difference is so slight, the best approach is to stick to your boss' choice about "Mary Smith" or "Mrs. Smith."
