TALK BY MR. BRYAN i 17. S0-3S) aa for this fellow, we kaw aet from whence He la. The ma a answered aad said aats them, Way herein is a snaxveloas thing, that ye know stot from wheaee He ta, and ret He hath apened soina eye. New knew that God caret haot sinners: bat If any Bias be a worshiper ef God.

and doeth HI wtl. him He caret h. Btaee the world bee aa was hi aat heard that any man epetied the eyes ef one thst was bona blind. If this maa were not ef God, He eeold do nothing. They answered aad said ant hlna, Thoo wast altogether bora tn sins, and dost thou teach And they east him ont.

desns heard that they had east htm ont and when he had. found him. He said onto him. Dost thou believe en the Son of God? He answered and said, Whe Is He. Lord, that 1 might believe on him? Aad cans said unto him.

Then hast both seen Hhrv. and It Is He that talketh. wtth thee, And be said. lord, I believe, and he worshiped Him on any wave length he likes, and take out of the air the song that pleases him best. While he listens, he Is oblivious to all.

other harmonies and those without receivers, as well as those listening in on other wave lengths, do not hear the music which he enjoys. It haa always been possible for a human being to get out of lite that for which he sopght "Seek, and ye shall find." One can live on any plane he likes and he. can Ignore the people and the things on other planes. The Greatest Service. One must know that he Is blind-that is, that there are higher levels of existence before lie can desire Improvement.

The greatest service one can render to another Is to convince hm of his blindness, whether It is intellectual blindness or spiritual blindness. The blind man In our lesson not only knew that he was blind, but desired, to see; the desire naturally comes next. This knowledge must be conveyed to him by those who can see. As soon as one becomes conscious of his blindness and appreciates what he is missing, he wants his eyes opened. The next step is to find one who can aid him, and this Information also must be brought In to him by one who knows a physician.

The blind man in our lesson knew that he was blind, I desired to eee, found the Great Physician, and was healed. Are we making known to those who sit In darkness the fact that there is spiritual light? Are we bringing them to Him who is "the HflTht of the world?" We are quick to make known to friends the jiame of a physician who has been successful as a specialist Euark, Miss Gertrude MoCue. Raymond MeUger and Mrs. Lena Dennison. of Indianapolis and Mrs.

Wc are also quick to recommend a book or a. school or; a teacher; why are we backward In recommending the only Physician who never lost a case the Great i Teacher who reveals the Heavenly Father to man? the rttertnoat." The world la full of blindness todayour own country as well as other countries.

Crime increases. Immoralities abound, and sin is found everywhere. Never was a Saviour more needed and Christ is the only One who can save "save to the He can enter into every heart and cleanse It; He can bring to evef one that peace which all crave the peace which can only be found tn "a conscience void of offense toward God. and toward man." In the mad race for wealth and rower, higher 'things are ignored as unimportant, while transient things are exalted; we are forgetting that "the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen Are eternal." Are we doing all that, we should do to bring the blind nations as well as individuals to a knowledrn of the fact that the teachings of the Man of Galilee furnish th nnlv solution of the problems that vex the world? There Is a false philosophy which naa ainiosc in rorce of International 'w; is nased on the theory that makes right." Inferior nations, aa thev aHA plotted by nations that style them- ro janas are taken by iorce ana appropriated by the stronger, as if moral principles Vf.as. to Pind when a large number Join together to violate them.

This Jtum blindness that needs a cure vlsl Christ can restore moral "Wee rmto'lllna." The laws' Of God can nnt ha wtv lated with impunity "though hand Join in hand, the wlclted shall not be unpunished." Th spirit that Is cultivated by lawlessness will, in the ena, acstroy the. lawbreaker even when the vlctlma of his lawlessness are helpless to avenge the wronzs done them. And so with those spiritually blind; they can nbt escape. They onl the Joy that Christ brings Into the lives of those who accept Him. but they incur the displeasures of Him who said: It Is impossible but that offenses will come; but woe unto him, through whom they come! -nw were ber for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into sea, than that ahMll4 nfFon.l 1 i una vi mesa little onea." Blindness should be cured as soon as discovered not only for the benefit of the blind, but also for the oi moss wnom the blind may lead astray.

And, it may be added, those who are born blind are free renm Vi a i s.j'vu.i uui i mat rests upon those who wilfully become rr ao not'aesire to see.

Blindness has always touched the heart of the sympathetic; sightless eyes make a compelling appeal to the charitable hence, so many blind begjjars.

The. man whom ve study was blind frtm birth. While those who have lost their alght. ater learning of the beauty of the flowers and of, the glorious colors painted npon the clouds by the Vising and the setting sun, may feel the darkness more keenly than those who never saw the light, stlll the former hare sweet and consoling memories to cherish which can not be known yi.l 090 wn re birth. The man horn blind was hopeless ana waa considered a legitimate claimant for alms.

Instead -of following the lesson notes and dwelling upon the details or the narrariv the phyeicai blindness of this poor man to illustrate a blindness more to be deplored. fcl0 Polgy ned be offered for this mode of treatment; Jesus gave heat. known to literature of the use of the material -i JJ.rnTan ot maklnj- known the spiritual, Common Ulnatratlona. In the parable of the sower. He -used different kinds of ground upon which the seed fell to Illustrate the varying receptivity of human hearts; In the parable of the Prodigal Son, He used the love 'Of an fathr iftustrate the infinite love of our Father in Heaven.

He used -a barnyard fowl to illustrate His solicitude "How often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathceth her chickens tinder her wings', and ye would not:" He also used bread, the staff of life, to illustrate the bred of life, end water, the daily need of every livinsr thing, to illustrate the water of life. It is sad enough to lose or never to have had the physical sense of sight, hut It is much more unfortunate to be mentally blind. A parent would much prefer to have a child sightless but mentally alert than to have its eyes perfect and its mind darkened. But, passing by for a moment the feeble-minded and the mentally defective, there are those who, though mentally normal, pre wholly engrossed In the physical. They know the possibilities of the body and the Joys that come through the flesh, but they seem to be unconscious of the grandeur of the intellectual world.

They ro as lndiferent to all ac-tLyltie in the realm of mind aa the animals are -to the world in which man works. A Greater Affliction. But there Is a greater affliction still. There are many of the Intellectuals who are blind to spiritual' things; they regard religion as a JTriday afternoon. A covered dish dinner was served.
