Dare we go out into the world and, make friends with outsiders and yet perhaps there i0_some 'one in our own home to whom we do not -speak. Whether we agree with everything which thong who are near and dear to us say ordo, we must realize that they are our very own and it is our business to try to lead them to Christ. It is indeed a pitiful thing when bro- thers and sisters do not speak.

There are tunes when people do get exasperated waiting on strseteor- hers for careless ones to come.

LNELINESS 7kwarew�ewwwrv.0"v+1+•+~#0. Are you lonely? There are many reasons why we could be lonely. At this particular time there are countless sad and lonely hearts throughout this world which it was God's intension should be a very happy world. Perhaps never in the history of the world has there been such loneliness. Several reasons may be given why we are Lonely. The vacant chair ,is one, and perhaps the chief reason. That chair can, neverbe filled, but by persistent contact with our Sa- viour the loneliness may become less severe. Wheu God calls one our loved ones we feel that life can never be the same again. Does God want us to take that attitude -because He has called some one dear to us to go on and spend Eternity with Him? The fact that He has revealed to us the beauties of the Great Beyond, should 13 'PEG" to dispose of it as they wish we would There is too much to be done to sit and talk, talk, talk about something which does not amount to anything.

The great reason for this is that we have not shown ourselves to be friendly "A man who hacl friends must show himself friendly." • What are some of the reasons why we have not many friends?

Another bar to friendship is mis- understanding. How often in looking back over our lives we can see a break with some one and it was simply a misunderstanding. It may be we were to have met a friend at a certain place. We waited and waited and they did not come. The invasion that you've waited for is underway .. thundering on far off battle fields. Our boys are in ill Every advance they make brings closer theday when the "fortress of Europe" will be blasted wide open and backing them up are your tanks, your guns, your ships, your planes.

Back the bys to the limit by investing in Bonds to the limit and ou91 help Speed the Victory/ task has been accomplished and in later years we will be very, very grateful to those who have helped us along this line. At tines we become annoyed be- cause some one has been elected to a higher office than we have, If some one is better qualified to attend to the office than we are then why should we not consider the work and be plea- sed that it will be done better than wo could do it. Many .a task has been ill done because through jealousy we have sulked and have made it so much harder for' the one who has .been elect- ed to the office. If we let jealousy creep into our lives we will become the most wretched person imaginable. These are some of the trivial things which will break the friendship. Then we asic ourselves the question `What is a real friend?" Some one has de- fined such a one as "One who knows the worst about us and yet will stand by us through all the ups and downs of life," As we look over our list of friends we think of the tithes when we have not been as kind to them as we might ,have been and in spite of it all they have retrained true to us. It may be that we know something about a friend which is not to their credit or the sane in connection' with us. We can help them and we would wish them to do the sante for 08 by keeping what we know to ourselves. If we have done wrong we have suffered and why does anyone' need to add to our trial by shunning us or speaking in -an unkind way about us, These things all tend to snake us lonely but there is One, Jesus Christ who will be with us in all times of loneliness. He was a friend of sin- ners in the days when Ile was on earth and has been the same Friend all down through the ages. The words of that beautiful hymn by Joseph Striven comes to us so of- ten and is such a comfort to us in days of loneliness and distress. "What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our, sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer!'' 0 what peace -we often forfeit, 0 what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer! Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged; Take it to the Lord in prayer, Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knbws our every weakness; Take it to the Lord in prayer. n Are we weak and heavy -laden. Cumbered with a load of care? Precious S'aviortr, still our refuge; Take it to the Lord in prayer. no thy friend despise forsake thee? Tako it to the Lord its player, In His arms I3e'll -take and shield thee: Thou wilt find a solace there.
