Delight accompanies its progress and joy bubbles over at the thought of its eertain success. The thought of enriching a world and human hearts energizes the labor for that cause and overcomes all things in the happy ae- eomplishment of it. The more worthy the cause and the greater the battle, the more glorious is the victory. To accomplish the greatest and the best will engage our utmost powers, our utmost skill, and our utmost endurance, and it ends in the rest of keenest satisfaction and lively glory. The best for its praetieal ideal and the aeeomplishment of that ideal, must be the aim and end ot Frankfort Pilgrim College. The ordinary will not dog the average is not sufficient. The standard or ideal, no difference how held, of another school ean never satisfy this school. XVe must be distinetively our- selves and have our own standards and these standards must always be in harmony with the will of God and the best edueation and training. Doetrinally, our position as a school must be primarily ever that of the NVord of God, nothing more, nothing less. In interpretation, we must chal- lenge the ehureh to the high and holy position she elaims for herself in this respect. A position in which she gives the Holy Spirit the right to state what is the content of any and all Scriptures. The Holy Bible, our word ot Truth and Life, reveals not only the letter of law, the history of morals, a higher life and a beautiful plan of graee, but makes known bv revelation another life, an inward spiritual life, a full eternal life, just as real and more dynamic than the one lived by regulation, law and the hope given bv the pronhet. We dare not teaeh or be taught in the history or letter only of the Christian religion: but we must teaeh and be taught and go out to teaeh others of the Eternal Life, the victories over all sin, the present fellowshin with the triune Sod and fellow Saints. And this must be by having' the Holy Spirit in our hearts to guide. to teach and to uphold, in harmony with the clear vision of the word. The theory of eternal life, full and free salva- tion, mnst not step with the theorv or doetrine but must give way to praetieal living faith in Phi-ist, regeneration by His life. being sanctified and filled by the Holy Spirit, and preserved unblamable unto the coming of the Lord. The witness of these experiences must be kent true and sure. God must be truly known in the person of the Spirit and obeyed. This is the message of all time. This is the message that we need for our Schuol and the message the world must have'-complete and full redemption through the blood of Christ, that we live now and forever in blessed freedom irom sin and in the pure love of Christ, the Eternal Life revealed by Divine Truth.

He that hath the Son hath life, and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. EQ We must make a great difference between G0d's word and the word of man.
