His life was a perfect demonstration of the truth that We docs not consist in the abundance of years but in the con- ofsa tent and meaning one is able to put into it. In his ca.se.

it was a matter cf quality and not quantity. In the short years of his life he had "developed a personality, a capacity for friendship, a lovable disposition, a genuineness of spirit, and a richness of'living, thai few people attain in three score and ten. Forty-nine he had. filled those years with more content and meaning, more life and experience, more righteousness and God than any ether person this writer has been privileged to know. Although there was certain seriousness in his demeanor, almost at times a fault, he had a most joyous personality.

Not a joy of an ephem- eral'type, but deep seated joy. This Joy came because he had entered into a great cause to which he could jive the best that was in him. Surely he could say with the Master. "For this cause I came into the world to bear witness to the truth," and bearing witness to that truth he had joy through pain. Life abundant was his because he gave himself abundantly to life.

He lived a life that became a symbol of goodness to those who knew him, and his chief delight was to impart that goodness to others. His life was so genuine that to some it became the very essence of sin- says it is right that is the way it ought to be."
