Going Away From Jesns
Perhaps one of the saddest
moments in the earth life of our
Saviour, aside from the exper
iences of the Passion Week, was
in that hour when many of his
followers began to slip away
from him. As long as his life
and teachings seemed to be in
harmony with their notions of a
temporal kingdom their enthusi
asm ran high, so that one might
have judged them to be true fol
lowers. Wondrous things are
heard from their lips: “I will
follow Thee whithersoever thou
goest.” “What good thing must
I do to inherit eternal life.”
“Never man spake like this
man.” Their loyalty seemed to
be beyond question. But let the
Lord of glory begin to speak of
things spiritual, of tasks that
are challeng ng of hopes and joys
that ere abiding, and they go
away from him, leaving a heart
that is broken "Will ye also go
away?” How these words throb
with a passion for men, tbo fickle
and disloyal, for souls sinniDg
and going away from him.
How it behooves every heart
among us today to test its love to
the Christ it professes, and its
loyalty to the secret vows it has
made Spiritual tides ran high

in your life in other days and
you would go all the way. But
the months sped away and while
you were “busy here and there”
your enthusiasm for things
spiritual slipped away with
them. ~
. F^rst of all you and I are going
away from Him today if in our
hearts we do not find a genuine
relish in the reading of the Holy
Wprd. Like the Psalmist we
should be made to cry out: “How
sweet are thy words unto ray
task; sweeter are they than
honey and the honey comb.”
Within its pages we may find
food for every soul hunger.
Again we are going away from
him if we do not find a special
delight in the secret h ur of
devotion. Here the soul climbs
to its loftiest heights, and flowers
and joys not of this world fill the
life, It is in the secret hour
when any ill of life is bured and
every broken heart is mended.
Once more we are going away
from Him if the worship of the
santuary in the Sunday morning
hour makes no appeal to our
lukewarm hearts. How much
that hour offers to you and to
me. Shall 1 speak of the prom
ises connected with it. They are
manifold meeting every need of
a growing life. Or would you
know of its relation' to the
spreading of the Kingdom. Here
the spiritual fires are kindled
that will make the heart burn
with zeal for the spreading of
the gospel to the ends of the
earth.
May we not have the joy of
your fellowship, whoever you
may be, in the Sabbath morn-
ing's worship, Sunday, June 26.

The Settler
“Buck” .lohnson was by nature a
settler. He settled on Boar Creek
when all the country in that neighbor-
hood was a howling wilderness. When
other settlers came he became rest
less and moved on to Devil’s Gulch,
v\ hich he settled. ..
He was soon crowded out of there
and sought other fields.
He became known as “The Settler.”
This gave him an exalted opinion
of himself and from settling land he
soon took to settling disputes, argu-
ments and—well. In fact, everything.
He was the chief arbitrator of the
whole countryside.
He met a little dark-eyed lass and
married her. She settled him.—Kan

Bar-le-Duc.—As excavations for the
construction of an American monu-
ment, were being made on the peak of
Montafucon, in the Argonne, the foun-
dations of an old fortress built there
by Godefroy de Bouillon In 1076 were
discovered. -
The American monument is to com-
memorate the 1,512 soldlsrs of the
United States army who were killed
there In September, 1918, when the po-
sition was. taken from the Germans.
The old fort Is said to have been de-
stroyed and reconstructed In the Elev-
enth, Thirteenth,' Fifteenth, Sixteenth
and Seventeenth centuries and finally
burned with the village during the
Thirty Years’ war by the Swedes.
Godefroy de Bouillon was a young
vassal of Emperor Henry IY* from
whom he received the title of Mar
quisate of Anvers at the death of
Godefroy-le-Bossu. The fortress was
dismantled when the Due de Basse
Lorraine left with the Crusaders.
Explorations are being made by
Baron Renaux, curator-of the Verdun
museum and library, under the auspices
of the ministry of fine arts, in col-
laboration with Canon Almond, histor-
ical savant of the Meuse, and other
authorities. Among the finds so far
are an entrance stairway, a series of
galleries of different sizes, small rooms
in one of which was a stone bench,
and several piles of burned wheat, In-
dicating the destruction of 1636. These
were all discovered at a depth of eight
or ten meters. • ■ • • ,
The American battle .monument Is
to be- made of reinforced concrete
faced with Burgundy stone. It will
be 200 feet high, overlooking the en-
tire battlefield. Dedication ceremonies
are scheduled for this summer, unless
present excavations postpone the work.

A man who dedicates his life to
knowledge becomes habituated to pleas-
