Renunc/af/on
By Lawrcnce Goutd
%
Wit] a man "renounce" a girl he realty loves?
Answer: Yes, if he has an exag-
goiated sense of guitt which drivgg
htm to deprive himsetf of happi-
ness. Under such conditions, the
stronger tustove, the surer he will
he to find some ptausibte excuse
for giving tier up, since what he
fears most of att is what he thinks
will make Mm happy. But the
a\erage man who toiis his sweet-
heart that he cannot marry her
<hccause he is "unworthy of her"
is mure often trying to deceive her
—orhitnseif. Ho really is afraid
she represents a standard which
he is unwiiling to try to live up to.
Coutd children grow up without
ttomes?
Answer: No. writes Kate Fried-
tander, British wetfare worker, in
the Journat of Mental Science.
For a chitd's conscience develops
out of his relations with his moth-
er, and he must have constant
contact with her during the first
six years of his life if he is to
team to transform his primitive
instincts into useful and effective
petterns of behavior. "The devet-
opment of an ethical code that
witl be strong enough to govern
the individual's future actions is
dependent on the existence of
famity life," and nothing else can
reptace it.
A
L '
Ones seeking "perfection"
prove high standards?
Answer: No. ft shows that you
are morbidty afraid of being criti-
cized, cither by others or by your-
self. What makes your standards
j high—and so rigid—is that you
don't dare to leave the tinest loop-
hole in your defense against largely
imaginary accusations. The woman
who cannot bear to see a speck of
dust in her house does not realty
tove cteantiness; she's afraid of be-
ing called a "bad housekeeper.'*
And the man who cannot finish a
job because he "can never get it
done to satisfy him" is the victim
of a simitar fear.

That's tlie time when you and
David witt want a stuatt house, a
garden, a cocker spanie!, a car,—
and indtpendence, independence,
independence! You don't want then
to be living with the impatient
young wife of David junior, or to
have to murmur to Margery, "Dad-
dy must have a hundred dotlars for
his teeth, dear."
Demands Will Grow
You'tl never add anything to the
vanishing bank account, if once you
begin to gnaw at it. Don't deceive
yoursetf. In 10 years the children
wit! want far more than they do
now, not !ess.
So during this long vacation be-
gin the Great Upheaval. Most hves
would be much better for an over-
hauling and a great upheaval now
and then. Put the children tnto
public schools, aiid if ttic public
schootsare not fine enottgh, help
to make them finer. Gather a tew
friends around them attd find a
friend of your own who witt give
them at! dancing lessons in your
house, at the cost of a fe\v sand-
wiches and botttes of pop. every
week. ,,
Chitdren dance naturally, and
they have so much fun learning to-
gether and teaching each other that
itisastiametosendthemto hfe-
less and completety uninterested
teachers at $6 an hour. Put theni on
a dress attowance, and buy them
much tess expensive clothes.
And don't forget that schoo of
a!l schools, the famity dinner table;
and that power of att sociat power,
good manners. Good manners are
onty gentteness and constderatton;
your children witt team them in no
better place than at the ft!'
table. , ,
Perhaps you haven t been bring-
ing Dad into the c""Vf"at'on
enough. How much do the t^' dien
know of his boyhood, the mistakes
he made, the tessons he 'earned,
the things he had to do for his
mother, the big fish he caught on
that campmg week that cost him
just $2.13? , .

lifesaving jobs than any one of our

day, you looked in upon the hos-
pitats in one targe city, you might
see the following:
A surgeon, in a brain operation,
packs a soft, white spongy mass
into a wound. It quickly stops the
bleeding and he teavesit there.
The body witt gradually absorb this
sponge—fibrin foam—because it is
made from human btood. He covers
the exposed brain with transparent
ptastic film. This fiim, made from
btood. stays safely till the body
manufactures a new covering.
In the accident ward, a quick in-
jection of a clear liquid, human
serum aibumin, made from blood,
saves a dying man from shock.
In the delivery room a new-born

Conquest of Death
Lesson for June 19, 19t9
r\OCTORS TALK about conqucr-
^ ing death, but they never do.
Alt they can manage is to put it
off a tittte. In all the long sad
story of mankind there is only one
absolute conquest of death. It hap-
pened on the first Easter morning,
nnd it was a turn-
ing point in the his-
tory of the world.
The few tines about
the Resurrection, in
our New Testai
ment, woutd not
cover the front page
of this newspaper.
We do not know at!
we want to know.
But those few !ines Or. Foreman
te!l us enough to
set us stnging, they are a solid foun-
dation for a soaring faith.
The Mighty Art of God
TSjrE shalt be disappointed if we
'* expect the Gospets to "ex-
plain" the Resurrection. If there is
anything the stories show ctearty,
it is that the first persoits who knew
of the Resurrection were confused
and shaken by it. The disciples had
not expected anything tike this,
and they may not fulty have under-
stood what was going on.
What they were sure of.
what they coutd not deny, was
first of att that Christ rose from
the dead, and atso that it was
God who raised him from the
dead, God had beaten the one
unbeatahte power — death.
Death, the universat conqueror,
turned out for once to he the
conquered.
It is onty those who can betieve
!n an att-powerfut God who can
futly believe in the Resurrection.
!t!sTt!c!,ord
TTfHAT MANNER of person was
*' Jesus, after that first Easter
morning? There were some differ-
ences hard to describe, and in fact
not described, onty hinted at. You
notice that at times it was not easy
to recognize him at first. Paul re-
fers to Christ's "gtorious body" and
surety there must be a gtory in a
person who has actuatty proved toe
strong for death to hotd—a gtory
such as even Christ, before Cal-
vary. had not shown. And yet—and
yet. it was the same Jesus they had
always known.
No Ghost
T?Y NIGHT, in many a "seance."
mediums profess to get in
touch with the spirits of the dead.
If you coutd betieve the spiritists,
Shakespeare and Queen Victoria
and innumerabte other famous
peopte, have come back and tatked
from beyond the grave. But the
thing that makes the Christian
church more than doubtfu! about
such performances, is that some-
how the de.id-and-come-back genius
is never a genius any more. Neither
Shakespeare nor any other famous
person has said anything worth
saying through a "medium." And
even these feeble ghosts cannot
endure the daylight. They have to
come at night.
How different were <t-.e com-
im;s of Jesns! 'There was
nothing weird or uncanny ahout
him. Around the supper tihte,
or on an afternoon watk. or out
on the lake shore under the
niorning sun... never the poor
mumbting ghost of a seance,
never any stupid triftes from
his tips, hut words of truths and
comfort which the church
cherishes as among the best
from our Lord's mind. Jesus'
resurrection is not the story of
the surviva) of a ghost, stitt less
the mere return of a revived
and watking corpse.
tt is the story of a Divine Person
who conquered death, and who
came hack from that conquest in
power and majesty, yet with att
the tenderness, love and brittiance
he had ever shown.
Our Hope in Him
pAUL (in I Cor. 15) makes it
* ctcar that our hope of tife-
beyond-death grows right out of
Christ's resurrection. The enemies
of Christ woutd have given their
right eyes to stop the mouths of
the men who told that story, and
to prove it a tie.
But they could never do it.
You cannot wetl stop peopte
from betieving what they have
seen with their own eyes. So
our hope of eternal tife is not
just a hope.
As Paut says, if that were alt, we
should be miserabte men.
