"I am but one. but I am one! I cannot do everything but 1 can do something; What I can do, I ought to do; And with God's help I will do." In these days We hear a great dcal about the atom. This atom is so tiny that physicists tell us it would take all the inhabitants of the earth ten thousand years to count those contained in a single drag‘ of water.

ere is sufficient power locked up in the atoms contained in a fraction of a int of water to drive a battles i from New York to Liverpool an back again. If God wrapped up such tremendous power in a tiny atom. what pow- cr may Hc not have hidden away in you? God, himself, does not in- vide a human personality. He. made us free moral agents. and our greatest power can be releas- ed only by our voluntary and complete surrender to His will. Surely it is His will that the liquor business shall be wiped out but He will not perform miracles for us while we sit with folded hands.

WHEN GAS EXPLODES

Many years I80. (as I have al- ready mentioned) I put in some time working for a farmer who held decided opinions and loved an argument. One day we got in- to a discussion as to what hap- pened to the gas when it explod- ed in the cylinder of an cnglne. He contended that the explosion destroyed or annililated it while my idea was that nothing in nat- ure is ever destroyed-but only Phaiigod. Iflnally we agreed to sub- mit the dispute to a popular farm
