is another key, which adults are en joined to use in relation to their child ren: “provoke not.” How often this little tool is found to be rusty from disuse! How did the Lord Jesus Christ, while He was here on earth, “get along with older people” ? A study of such pas sages as Mark 5:25-314; Luke 2:51; 21:1-5 and John 19:25-27, will be a help to every young person, in his ef fort to solve the problem of personal relations. 1. Show gratitude. There are un counted hundreds of men and women— parents, teachers, and others—who have given unstintingly for young people’s good. Most of them have received no expression of gratitude from the ones whom they have befriended. An ap preciative word, bom of sincerity, would touch their hearts deeply. 2. Demonstrate patience. No charac ter is well rounded without the element of patience in it (cf. Rom. 12:12; Heb. 10:36; Jas. 1:4; 5:7). And patience is developed only through hardship. The petty frustrations, the little annoying mannerisms in other individuals are, for you, a means of attaining God- given poise.—Selected. rr. W hat S ome “O lder P eople ” H ave D one Caleb was eighty-five years old when he courageously demanded “this moun tain, whereof the Lord spake,” and drpve out the giants from his inheri tance (cf. Josh. 14:10-14; 15:14). It was "Paul the aged” (Philem. 9) who pleaded the case of a young Chris tian, in his Epistle that has been called “the masterpiece of Christian courtesy,” the letter to Philemon. in. W hen the B ishop H elped A Y oung M an “I will bless thee . . . and thou shalt be a blessing” (Gen. 12:2). A young man, sorely baffled, called on Phillips Brooks. The youth had thought about his problem a hundred times, and knew just how he would phrase it when he met the bishop. After a glorious hour of fellowship, he left with a radiance in his1soul. When he reached home, he suddenly remembered, for the first time, that he had completely forgotten to ask the bishop about his troublesome ques tion. “I did not care,” he said. “What I really needed was not the solution of a special problem, but the contagion of a triumphant spirit.” —Stars in the Sky.

Young people are often led to believe that the strength and virility which they possess are of greater value than ex perience, which only the passing years can give. It is true that many a person of middle age, or older, lacks a spon taneous interest in young people’s af fairs, dand therefore is misunderstood by young people; but it must be remem bered also that even from unresponsive individuals, the young person may pro fit, if he wills to do so. For this profiting, two old-fashioned and unpopular words come into play, both of which are found in our Scrip ture passage. They are the little words, "obey” and “honor.” They constitute a key which any young person may use, happily, for the unlocking of the heart’s does of many an older person. There SOfbrtl w/fh Name
