JUST as 1 am • By To. each one of us there comes the question. What must I do if I want ' to become 'a Christian? What works must I perform; how many hours must I put in, in ,study? "Those -and many other thoughts -come into our minds ere we realize that all we need to do is just to ..come to Jesus as we are." For some weeks we have been studying the Sunday School and its problems. The main work of the ".Sunday School teacher .or official is to lead the scholars old and young to Christ„ "PEG" •ft boys and girls •of his age and older than he was were doing. His reply was "I cannot do those things for I an a Christian and I do not believe they are right." Not long after, the little lad Publicly took his stand for Christ by baptism. To -day he is in the`forcees and is there doing a great work for His Lord. The story' of that beautiful hymn "Just as I ant" may be a great help to many who are pondering this question. "What must I do to be We sometimes say that scholars of tender age are too young to be taught to love Christ. We never • think a child is too • little to learn to love his or her • Mother, neither is any child too young to love the Saviour. Be very careful that we do not discourage them en -account of their youth. A. boy about seven years ofage was talking to a lady of much older years. The lady enquired as to why The did not do some things that the saved?" Miss Charlotte Elliott who wrote the hymn, was visiting some friends in the West end of London, and there met an Eminent •minister. While seated at the dinner table this man of God said he •hoped that she was a Christian. She was much of- fended and said he would rather not d Buss •the subject. Dr. Malan said that he was sorry if he had offended her but he always liked to speak a word for his Master and that he hoped she would some day become a worker for Christ. When they met three weeks later she told him she had thought a great deal about it and that she ti,i heed to become a ,Christian if he would, tell her what she must' do to accept Jesus Christ' as her Saviour. He• said, "Just come to him as you are," This 'she did and went away rejoicing. Shortly after- wards she wrote tide hymn. "In all my preaching," said her brother, Rev. H. V. Elliott, "I haven't done so much good as my sister has been permitt- ed to accomplish by writing her one hymn `Just as I an'1" • Usually when we want some great advantage in our lives we expect to have to plead for it but for .the most wonderful gift which we can ever expect to. have become part of our being all we have to do is to say words similar to "0 Lamb of God, I -come.,, • We may have 'many past sins but when we came to Jesus he puts them sins we have committed, even the will give the devil charge of our most vile, God, in His great love, a lives.

Near one of the Iarge churches in Florence, there was a huge block of marble. It had only one use, that was the carving of a colossal statue. One sculptor after another had tried his best to make something out of it 'but without success. Then the enormous, mass :of stone was hewed at until it was shapeless.

We are many time undecided in our course of action. These things, may keep us back from accepting Christ for years but if we would just take our Bibles and read carefully and prayerfully John •3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life," all our difficulties would cease and we would quite readily say '0 Lamb of God, I. conte". Then we have that beautiful verse referring to our financial and phy- sical condition. We may be poor, Ilow in vitality and have many other onditions such as we daily come in contact with, yet when we come to Jesus we will vary readily find a solution to all our problems. He will take us in His tender embrace and all 'our troubles will cease. Whatever we have been like, what 'woman„ When is a Dollar ot a Dollar? When it won't buy a dollar's worth of goads!

The real story is told in the closaup—without a. lot of detail in- terfering in the background. Also the position of the lad as he is about to take a swing; at the ball is ex- tremely pleasing in the arrangement of his body and arms. Now, had he been turned sideways, you would have had a distorted picture of a' baseball bat, and a question as to the identity of the subject. n1IIE1 main purpose of most pie - 1, tures' is to present a subject: clearly—and' to please the eye. The picture may also tell a story, or con- vey an idea—but whatever its pur- pose,the eye should be pleased. Picture arrangement has a great deal to do with this matter of pleas- ing the eye. This applies particu- larly to the arrangement of your subject -matter "within, the picture space. •lf it's done properly, you ob- tain an attractive effect. if it isn't properly done, the picture just doesn't quite hit the mark. • You have probably read a bit about pictorial composition • .. per- haps even learned some of the for- mal rules. These rulesare fine, as a sortofgeneral background—and they do help yon analyzepictures, so that you can tell just why the good ones stand out. For ,example, if a striping action shot catches your eye, you will usually and some snappy contrpsts of tone and some vigorous lines when you ,analyze it more clearly. The rules help you no- tice these things—and they also help you anticipate certainin possibili- ties ibili- ties when you're planning a picture. However, it's not quite wise to make all your pictures Et certain rigid rales or. formulas. In `most cases, you will do better by study-' Mg the subject, and deciding how it can bo arranged to present your idea in a clear, .pleasing manner. 11orexample, trite the picture.

When we talk' about positioning and pies- ing.it would almost sound as though the result would be an unnatural, posed effect.
