there once was an oyster whose story i tell who found that some sand had got under his shell just one little grain but it gave him a pain for oysters have feeli for all theyre so plain mow did he berate the working of rate which had led him to such a deplor able state did he curse out the government call for election and cry that the sea should have given him protection hoi he said to himself as he lay on a shelf since i cannot remove it ill try and improve it i the years roll along as years always and he came to his ultimate destiny stew 1 and the small grain of sand that had bothered him so was a beautiful pearl all richly aglow 1 the tale has a moral for isnt it grand what an oyster can do with a morsel of sand what couldnt i do if td only begin with all of those things that get under my skin betty o shaw dog goes fob first aid last winter while on a big sheep ranch in central oregon i learned some of the reasons why the sheep- herder is so attached to his dog in the midst of our coldest weather snow b the earth and the thermometer falling at night to many degrees below aero carl down a eheepherder living alone with his dog to a herders shack on a distant part of the ranch had for that daybeen using a team of borate as the early wjhter night closed in he drove to the shack dropped the reins from his coldstiffened hands and started to climb from the wagon to unhitch as he put one foot over the wheel a covey of birds suddenly rose in front of the horses in the half light the team failed to recog nize the source ot the disturbance became frightened plunged and dash ed away carl was thrown forward and severely hurt after afewthinutes selfexamination be knew the bitter truth a broken leg fumbling in his pocket he found a short piece of pen cil and an old letter by the fading light he wrote a few words help-ao- ddentalonesuffertng greatly he stuffed this note into his leather glove and tied it securely then calling his dog he tied this glove to the dogs neck slapped him and pointing to the road bade him go the dog stood bewildered as he was not ac customed to leaving his master but a repetition ol the command made it clear and looking longingly at his wounded mastery he plunged away in to the gathering darkness we never knew at just what time he reached headquarters hut when the commissary clerk came down about seven- oclock next morning to open up he found the halffrozen dog crouched against tne door at the sight of the clerk he rose stiffly and moaned piteously at once the mes sage was found and in very few min utes the ranch superintendent was urging his oar full speed ahead wards the wounded man after eeetng his dog go carl had painfully dragged himself into the shack end managed at last to get un der covers of the bed where he lay

yourvolce rejoice again i say rejoice 1 msharles wesley i i easter day i do we take easter for granted be cause it comes once a year ft has been observed without omission for nineteen centuries do we expect too little from it are our interests lnl the external things fashions on the streets the- lilies and anthems at church services or do we really gain from easter day a christian at titude toward death when peter preached at pentecost he did not take christs resurrection as a customary matter of form it meant everything j to htm it had changed defeat into victory for him he could not get over the surprise of it allthe man who had wanted to return to his fishing is here preaching radiantly the startllngly novel news of the 1 gospel his courage came through a si s the power of christs resurrection cn the crucifixion remained a crime but the resurrection was a disclosure of the purposes of god can we today recover something of the ecstasy and gladness of that first easter life invincible 2224 we need not wonder that peters hearers were sceptical about his an nouncement the news was almost unbelievable it still is peter calm ly and deliberately stated that a man whom they knew and whom they had crucified and slain had been raised up of god and had given a demon stration of immortality it was all directly opposite to natural law and common sense the only thing that makes the resurection credible as an actual fact is that it happened to jesus christ and about him nothing is too good to be true a personality such as his could not be stopped by nails and a spear thrust peter gave credit for the miracle to almighty god who loosed the pains of death christ being who and what he was it was not possible that he should be holden of death the spirit of jesus could not be locked in a borrowed tomb the hour and article of death could not put an end to his person ality quite apart from peters amaz ing declaration the historical fact is that something happened to produce the new testament the christian church and apostllc heroism hope eternal 228 in regard to faith in a future life there is a marked contrast between the old testament and the new it is more than a progression of thought there is a change of spiritual attitude from vague yearning to definite as surance job asked his timeless ques tion if a man die shall he live again the background of the question indicates as much doubt as hope or faith the psalmist too have not quite the ringing certainty of the apostolic age they saw chiefly only faint foreshadowings they could only reason from the present to the future thou hast made known to me the ways of life thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance but christians are able to reason from the future to the present christ has entered within the veil and we are to follow him he has become the first fruits the forerunner of immortality and he has for us here and now rob bed death of its sting and the grave of its victory if we are in perpetual bondage through fear of death we cannot have learned to know christ as the apostles knew him he has al ready become our ressurrection ana our life he is able to keep that which w have committed to his care question for djttnsston 1 how much have i anticipated easter this year 2 what made peter courageous at pentecost 3 are we living as though immortal 4 how does christs

intelligent dog htt hoars or suffering nb doubt would nape lengthened into daya in the living christ 933 the author of the twentythird psalm said that though he walked through the dark valley he would fear no evil he was willing to go but anxious to stay paul said that he was in a strait betwixt two feeling that it was expedient for him to live but desiring to be with christ which would be far better he was willing to stay but anxious to go what made the difference between these two points of view was it merely the lapse of several centuries no it was the definite faith in the jutjurej life that came through the resurrec tion of jesus christ from the dead i the great king david had lived his life and hjs sepulchre was preserved for centuries christs public minis try was very brief and he has no burial place josephs tomb was found empty with the stone rolled away it does not read at all like a myth the apostles peter paul and others wrote out of an experience of the living christ as a presence and power these were not mystical day dreamers peter was a fisherman and paul was a philosopher they both found that christ did his greatest work after calvary lord and christ 3436 the amazing thmg in christian history is the influence of christ in stead of the memory of his life pass ing into oblivion more people know about him than ever before this easter millions of people will be say ing rejoice the lord is king jesus is the timeless leader he brings much of heaven to parth an eternity into time david was an attractive youth and a great warrior king but he has not become the center or a re- uglousfalth as jesus christ- has done hear peters ringing confession of faith therefore let all the house of israel know assuredly that god hath made ttiat same jesus whom ye have crucified both lord and christ can we say that or the equivalent of it in our own words and in modern terms this easter season is our hope of immortality a vague speculation and question mark or la it something that through faith in christ we have surrendered wholly to him our lives are in his keeping here and hereafter therefore shall we not fear as do our others we know in whom we have believed
