Editor of The CoiiKregatlunulist There Is a grjat deal of 'difference between nipre impulses of good will and real actroas that are uplifting and helpful. It is one thing to have very generous thoughts of our fellow men and kindly feelings, but quite another thing to stretch forth hands of cooperation and brotherly assistance. There Is a richly symbolic suggestion of this In the story of Peter and the beggwr who sat at the beautiful gate of the Temple. As Peter etiterpd into the temple the beggar looked Hp asking for alms. When Peter said "Silver end Bold have I tinne." flirt Xipvenr must have exporlencvd a disappointment, despite Peter's sympathetic glance and interest.

I When Peter said, "But su'cli asj I liave give I thee," the beggar stjli may have doubted the ability! to help hi ni of one who liar neither sliver nor gold, ll'it when Peter took the beggar by the right hand and lifted him up. the beggar must have experienced a new thrill and a new joy In tlm consciousness that strength had come to his It Is (he power of tiie strong right arm that ultimately demon-j strates the power of the loving' and gracious heart. The strong-right arm, alas, has been too of-; ten given to deeds of violence even in the name Of Civilization, The great fiocial task of the modern world Is to consecrate the' power of the strong right arm to inner purposes or love and right-j eousness and truth. i BRINGING BODY OF MRS.
