"IS MONEY CURSE?"
By "PEG"
',That question tiny be answered in
two ways. "Ye's, in many instances
it is a curse, but in other ways it is
a great blessing.":
A. lady recently said: "I have lived
for a geed number of years and, I
have worked hard and earned a splen-
did salary, but .1 have little laid by
excerpt what will bury me. If I had
my life to live ,over again, 1 'believe
I would do d'iffereptlY; I would give
my money to help others, but would
choose more carefully those to whom
I would help, but at any rate I would
not lay a large amount by when
;there are so many who Saeed help."
Then there are those who hoard
even to the extent of allowing others
to believe they -are financially very
badly off. ' These who hide their say-
ings in an old sock or tin can.
Lastly, some people ?;ave to save,
They build a beautiful home. Their
family grows up in luxury. Some of
their children turn out to be very
fine citizens, but for others their
money has been a curse.
There are those in moderate cir-
cumstances who believe they should
save to leave a legacy behind 'them
so that their children can say: "Dad
and mother left me . quite a bit of
money."
That may be alright but would it
notbe better to educate the children
at they need to be educated now.
Even to a University education and
let them make their own; lives. Even
at that dhildren, and youths should
be taught to work and be nada to
realize the importance of tithing their'
income` and saving the rest to help
with their education. All honor to,
the young men' and women of today
who are putting themselves through.
College: either by scholarships or
money which they have earned. By
the time they have done that, they
will realize the value of money and
are much more HMO to take care
of it.
'
Some years ago a young lad want-
ed to take a paper route, bis parents
were in good circumstances and his
mother thought it would not be quite
right for nim to do so. Many of our
noted men of today have started in a
way as humble as that. A lad who
starts out in his youth to earn his
little bit of money is not nearly so
likely to spend what he later earns
in curses and luxuries than those who
have been handed a liberal allowance
eaeh week and allowed to spend it as
he likes without accounting for it in
any way to his parents. Your sons
and daughters will thank you in later
years for your guidance along this
line. A child's future must be care-
fully and prayerfully studied from the
moment he comes into the world, and
it is your task and responsibility,

fathers and mothers, to give Christ-
ian, yes, we say Christian, guidance
to the little ones. What they learn
when they are young will remain with
them throughout all their years. Per-
haps we may think our early training
was strict, but when those who are
older in years look back to their
childhood it is with .a deep feeling
of love and gratitude that we were
loaned by God into homes where
Christ was honored and not money.
In years to come how many of the
children of today will be able to look
back and say: "After Sunday !School
in the home of my childhood we gath-
ere around the table with father and
mother. We read, verse about, from
God's Word." What a joy to have
such memories! Parents will you not
in your homes, with your children,
give Christ first place and let 'Him
guide you in what you will do with
the money which has come into your
hands for disposal.

Speaking of money being a curse,
some .of us can recall in our school
days pouring over the story of King
Midas who so longed for gold that
it became just a part of his life. He
was offered and accepted, the oppor-
tunity of having everything he touch-
ed turn to gold. He was hi4hly
pleased when he touched an iron
chain and it turned to gold. He went
from one thing to another until he
was almost completely surrounded
with his ambition. Then his little
daughter, of which he was very fond,
came running in and he pot his hand
on her head and immediately she
became a golden statue. • It was
enough, Midas had learned his les ■
son. His happiness had vanished.
So it is today. There are many
men and women who would give all
the money they possess if they could
only regain their happiness. Midas
saw the folly of his ambition for
gold and was indeed thankful when
his little daughter was returned to
him in her natural form.
That is only a story, but it is true
today. People are even selling their
souls for ,Gold.
The crowns of many of the ruling
Monarchs of Europe are composed of
hundreds of diamonds, but would we
exchange the crown of the poorest
saint of God for any one of them.
That is a question which each ono
of tis must answer for himself or
herself. We may have a great deal
of money here, but what will that
benefit us in the Great Beyond? We
cannot take it with us. The one
thing that does matter is what we
are going to have in the glory Land.
When our call comes and we stand
before the Judgment Seat of Christ
we will know just what good or harm
we have done with our money while
on earth.
We may think we have little to
give to others. The story of the
widow's "mite" will remain aslong
as the world lasts: What we 'can
give compared with what others do-
nate may seem small in our sight.
but God knows all about it and it
may be our "mite" will mean more
in His sight than the thousands
which others might give. God asks
us to give as we would if He were
giving it into His hand.

An American millionaire had been
born a poor boy, but in later years
had amassed a big fortune which
he made his idol. One day he was
showing a Quaker around his palatial
grounds and said to ,him: "And the
almighty dollar has done it all! What
cannot money do?" "Ah, friend,"
the Quaker replied, "thou remindest
ire of the Israelites who worshipped
the golden calf, saying it brought
them out of the land ef Egypt. In
reality it hindered rather than help-
ed thein in their journey to the prom-
ised land, and maybe thy dollars will
do the same for thee."
There is a great deal in the world
which is more valuable than money.
Would we give our eyesight, our
general health or our ability to think
clearly for money? We can truth-
fully say vie would not.
When God cats us to leave our
money and everything else but our
unforgiven sins behind us and pass
through the door into Eternity will
our thoughts be on money? if we
have not used it wisely we will wish
we had never had it, but if we have
used it for His glory, what a com-
fort it will be for us to realize we
have helped some. one with it We
may have very little but what we
have • let us use it for the further-
ance of His ISJingdom.
Money
"Dug from the mountain side,
Washed in the glen,
Servant ani I, or Master of men,
Earn, me, I blesa You,
Steal me, I curse you,
Grasp me and hoard me,
A friend shal possess you.
Lie for ire, die for me,
Covet me, take me,
Angel or. Devil, I am
What you make me."
