e Para y c n this chapter was
read for the Scripture Lesson, Mr.
Bennett explained that no matter,
What material things we. may think
we need, or however'free from sin'
'we may think ourselves to .be, every-
one needs his sins forgiven. He then
referred to the diffei\ent kinds of sins;
sins of the body,- sins of tempernient,
as illustrated by the sulkiness and
temper of the elder brothernwhen the
feast was prepared for the prodigal;
'social sins of 'which a great many are
committed unwillingly; sins of ne-
glect which are perhaps the most
tuazinnismisiniawninitimumanuansimosing•
commOn to all of us. He compared
the earthly :parent forgiving the 'child
to the Heavenly Father forgiving
those Who came to him in repentance.
But, though the sin is forgiven, the
scar often remains and so the young
people Were urged to keep their lives
pure and free from these sins.
At the close of the seraion Mrs.
Fred Stephenson sang the very appro-
priate solo "0 Lord Forgive."

TRUE LOVE
(Written for The Advance -Times
By K. G.)
There's a Mother watches over
Her child throughout the years,
There's a mother prays and hopes
, And her heart is full of fears.
There's a road her child must travel
When some day he's' far from home,
There are paths, both dark .and
sha-
dowed,
That ,he'll tread one day' alone,
knd when nights are dark and silent
And .when days' are Cold, and blue,
And the clouds are 'dark and ,storMY
'.That dear Mother thinks of you.
For she seems to see the dangers,
That await you on your way,
When, in soine distant places,
You will wander, far, sOme day.,
There can never be another,
So gentle or so true,
As that Mother fond ,and tender,:
That watches over you.
