WHAT MAKES A GREAT LIFE? D O not try to do a great thing; you may waste all your life waiting for the opportunity which may never come. But since little things are always claim ing your attention, do them as they come, from a great motive, for the glory of God, to win His smile of approval, and do good to men. It is harder to plod on in obscurity, acting thus, than to V A C A T I O N N E W S ! A NOTHER recreational and spiritually profitable Confer ence, sponsored by the Bible In stitute of Los Angeles at beauti ful Mount Hermon Conference Grounds in the Santa Cruz Moun tains, is to be held August 15-22, 1948.

But no such act goes without the swift recognition and ultimate recom pense of Christ. To fulfill faithfully the duties of your station; to use to the uttermost the gifts of your ministry; to bear chafing, trivial irritations, as martyrs bore the pillory and stake; to find the one noble trait in people who try to molest you; to put the kindest construction on unkind acts and words; to love with the love of God even the unthankful and evil; to be content to be a fountain in the midst of a wild valley of stones, nourishing a few lichens and wild flowers, or now and again a thirsty sheep; and to do this always, and not for praise of man, but for the sake of God—this makes a great life. — F.
