Somie years ago we heard a sermon on the ýtextý-evidentlY flot frorn the, Bible-- "dRespect the' Burden."

We wvere -urged to keep in mind thé fact that we _were. deal- ing with1 a burden bearer and that xve should act accordingly. Tpday the -world is full of burden-bear- ers, men and wvomen staggering u tnder, crushing loads. In the. market place one meets hundreds of men on the. verge of, collapse because of tremnendous l's.ses. In the homes are muliitituides of xvom en Who are sharing thesé losses. Such qonditions eall for unsual patience and forbearance. A man' may totter along under a heavy physical burden and yet whlen the burden is removed may quickly recover bis norm-, al posture and, behavior., But the ýeffects of carrying day after day.,a heavy mental burden remain long after the load has been eased.
