cpiild look through its lucid depths and see the seaweed rooted on the rocks beneath. And' the life o f the soul, when it is like a small, measurable lake, is easily disquieted, and little disturbances toss it into convulsions, But when the soul knows God, when it recognizes its vast relationships, when it feels the tidal flow of the Infinite within the waters o f the breast, it has the secret o f a great calm, and the little things leave it undisturbed. When the soul knows God it can be still.”

Rev, Hay Aitken related a very striking incident o f Evan gelist D. L. Moody. He said: “ I shall never forget a solemn time that I had with him long years ago, just after his wonder ful evangelistic campaign in London in 1875. He and I were talk ing about his approaching return to America, as we sat to gether in a summerhouse in the grounds o f Mount Alyn, the home of Liverpool’s greatest philanthropist, Alexander Balfour. With an earnestness that I vividly recall,’ Mr. Moody said: ‘I want you to pray for me; for the eyes of the world are on me now, and oh, if I should make any sort o f a slip! Just think how poor old David gave great-occasion to the enemies'of God to blaspheme.’ ‘Yes,’ I added, ‘and they haven’t done with blasphem ing God about that matter up to this day.’ ‘That is so,’ he re plied, and then he added with the deepest feeling-—I think the tears were in his eyes as he said it—-‘Oh, my dear Aitken, I’d rather die than lose my testimony!’ Thank G od,fee has died without losing his testimony, or even having it in any way im paired by any moral failure or inconsistency; and while,.even in these great days, many affected to regard him with suspicion, and even contempt, I apprehend that there are few human beings this wide world over o f those who have heard Moody’s name that do not now regard his memory with profound respect.” During a visit to Toronto, Rev. W . Y, Fullerton told the story o f a young man who was refused as a missionary. In the year 1916 he applied to an English Board to go forth on foreign service. The doctor gave him a very black sheet and consequently the Mission Board said they could not send him. This decision did not discourage him and fill his soul with sourness. He determined to be a missionary even though at home. He went into business to make money for missions. ‘ In 1917 he sent to the Mission Board 75 pounds; in 1918, 480 pounds; in 1919, 1,900 pounds; in 1920, 1,024 pounds fun 1921, 2,500 pounds; in 1922, 3,000 pounds; in 1923, 3,500 pounds; in 1924, 4,425 pounds; in 1925, 4,908 pounds’; in 1926, 7,403 pounds. What a record for a man who was .too. sick to be a missionary-^ 29,215 pounds in ten years! There are many ways o f doing missionary work. The im portant thing is to do it the way God has appointed for us. J une 22, 1928 Text; Job 17:9
