E. church, preached tin able sermon Sunday evening on a subject especially designed for young people. His sermon was a most pleasing and interesting one, being full of "good horse sense," and prac tical advice to the younger members in his congregation. »It was a beauti ful mind picture for the young, sup plemented by wise counsel delivered in an earnest and convincing man lier. In this new twentieth century age where life presents the appearance of a picket fence passing at a gallop, the young are greatly iu need of ad vice of the right kind and plenty of it. It is glorious to be young. Youth is the time of inspiration. To youth the future is a Held of unbounded opportunity. As we grow older the field narrows and is tiuully bounded by the lines of our employment, the end of which is indistinctly visible, marked by a tombstone or a monu ment, according to the value of our estate or the amount of life insur ance we carry. Somewhere along the way we pass a place where dreams vanish, where heroes are 110 longer eight feet high, and women are no longer all angles— when expectation grades iuto reality and the future is here! The ques tion which then confronts you is— are you ready You have reached the place where the equipment of the past must be sufficient or you fail, when you must draw 011 what you have accumulated and have no time for further preparation. When opportunity knocks, "if sleeping, wake; if feasting rise" before it turns away. It is the hour of fate. Be ready. We will quote Rev. Bidlack's advice—"start early iu life, choose whatever occupation is most natural for you to do, and work persistently at it—start young." Be ready when vour service is needed and opportun ity beckons you to come forth. We pass this way but once ami by every theory of human life, whether it be estimated as beginning and ending here, or whether it be believed to [extend beyond the visible limits of man's estate, it is l»est to make it worth while to have existed. Shunk, Misses Mary and Amy McKay, were home on a visit last week. Mr. and Mrs. C. if. Warren spent the fourth with the former's parents in Bradford county.
