last issue of the receipts and dis- ^

the past year. Every
dollar paid into the town treas- ^

of Kinsrstree publish such a report? |c
The cost would be trifling as c
compared with the satisfaction
derived from letting the people
know the town's true financial .

More deaths from drowning are a
reported this summer than we ever t
noticed Ijcfore. While our own 5

C
tion cannot be exercised bv parents
v
in allowing small 1k)\*s to go in
bathing. At least one man who can
swim should always l>e along to res- e
cue those who might get l?eyoiid 1
their depth. Young boys, even those c
who can swim, are not safe companions
for small children in deep wa- ^
S ter. When danger comes it takes a s
\ cool head as well as a strong arm to
*
rescue even a small boy struggling
\ in deep water.

sought to kei that DivJne Law, under
the promise of eternal life for so
doing, but none of them hare been
able to gain the prize.
VTben as a nation they realize their
Inability, and not sooner, they will be
ready to receive at God's hands, as a
free gift through the Redeemer, the
forgiveness of tbelr violations of the
Divine Law. And then, under their
New Covenant (Jer. 31:31; Heb. |
8:8-13), they will have Messlahls as- i
sistance In regaining that perfection
of mind and tody and a "new heart,"
which will enable them to obey In
every particular the Divine Law.
That blessing, which Is soon to come

Klnedom and the New Covenant, will

seed of Abraham, to every nation,

the Divine premise made to Abraham.
Analyzing Our Subject
Applying this principle of justice to
our words. It means that we should
uot speak evil of either friend or foe;
that we should not even Insinuate evil
It means that we should not tell un
necessarily what we know to be the j
truth, if It would harm our neighbor, i
disparage him and discredit him In the j
eyes of otheiu. It means that we j
should love our neighbor and his Inter- '
e?ts as we lore our own, and should
defend his interests and guard them
as carefully as we would our own.
Justice, In order to thus operate ft) j
our words and deeds, must operate in !
our hearts?In our minds. "As a man
thinketb, so is he." If he thinks unkindly,
ungenerously, unjustly, he will
find it impossible always to avoid on
kind, unjust, unloving words or actions.
"Out of the abundance of the
heart the mouth speaketh." It follows,
then, that to do Justly signifies
absolute righteousness in thought. In
word, In conduct This none of us are
capable of.
The nearest approach to this Is the
perfect or Just Intention of the heart,
covenanted by all those who become
followers of the Lord Jesus Christ
The Intentions and good endeavors of
these are accepted of the Father.
