RESPONSIBILITY
By "PEG"
Fourth Spoke of Umbrella
So often in taying.to defend some
action of pans we say, "1t does not
make any difference what I do, .no
come. needs to follow my example,
I am not responsible for what any
One else does."
Iai Genesis fourth chapter we have
the story of ;Cain and Abel. Abel
was "a keeper of sheep" and Cain
"a ?tiller of the ground;" Both seen
brought their offering to the Lard.
The Lord had respect unto Abel and
to his offering, but untoCain and
his offering lie had not resrpeeb. Cain
was verse angry and later, in the
field, he slew Abel. Then the Lord
said unto Cailn: "Where is ?Abel, thy
brother" And he said; "I know
start: ane 1 any brot'her's keeper?"
As we read on in the chapter we
realize that God proved to 'Gain 'that
he Was his brother's keeper.'
Ars it wase in those days of so
long ago, so it is. ,today, God holds
us air our brother's keeper, We are
responsible for anuytkieg.
We dog which will he an influence
for good or for, evil in the life of
any one else. As we look ?back over
the doings of ;our day we can readily
see how our actions ;have either
hindered or helped some one.
We so gften question this respen-
sibility and yet we are constantly
doing things which awe proving that
we leave'nv interest in roth.eres. When
there is eilckn'ese in, a home we
hurry to ;see if we can be of any
help; when +bereavement comes ° our
sympathy is offered` now •at .the

As we walk along oua• streets we
so often ;see instances of hoar: even

over the radio there came the quot-

how an old, body stood trembling at

If we were to visit some of our

that teachers are Tooth to iinde2•take

it not be a good idea for parents
to enquire from the teacher of their

In regard to our *Christian relig-
ion *before Christ died He commis-
signed His disciples to preach the
gospel to. all people. Fortunately
far us the good news came east in-
stead of west for had the western
People sent the gospel the way we
have sent it to them, in all probabil-
ity we would still be without the
good news of the sacrificial death
of Christ for us. The disciples felt
their responsibility and followed the
instruction ,of our ,Saviour. That
!responsibility meant ' a martyrs
deabh to those men who determined
to do what Christ .asked them to do.
They knew ;they were likely to face
that but stile they shouldered ;ibis
responsibility.
There is nothing that will help a
man, woman, boy or girl on in Life
like responsibility. Give a child
something ee do, let him know yon
will help bins to get started but
that you expect him to carry on with
it, bake an interest in what he is
doing and that child will accept that
responsibility. He will go on from
one thing to another in like fashion
and he will grow to be a dependable
man, but in the same way ask a
child to look ;alter some daily job
and pay no further heed• to what he
is doing and nine times out of ten
his interest 'will be diverted into
some •chanmel -of amusement and the
task assigned to him will be for-
gotten. Why? 'Became the mother
or father who asked him to do the
work in the first place ;tact no sense
of tresppneibility and why expect a
young lad or lass to follow instruc-
tions of an irresponsible person.
There is no one more interested in
wanting to help "mommy" or
"daddy" than a little ,boy or girl.
'Why rat give them the responsibil-
ity of doing different things hint be
a helper to them?
A young man was facing the elec-

at it sadly rand said: "Send that •

her I would not be here. She taeght
me to play ,cards in our own hoane.
From that one thing led to another,
until I ;am where yoke see me today.
My mother is responsible largely for
it. ;She and my father' used to at -
bend card parties and dances, and
taught their family to do the same.
We had adew sister who went down

,Such a pathetic talk from a young
