East WEALTH, AS LIFE, SERVICE, TIME.-Since wealth is often labor stored up in portable form, it has in it a man's life. It partakes of his personality. A man's wealth, through his acting in it, becomes a personal force in social life which may be used for the noblest ends or prostituted to the basest uses. No man can escape the fullest responsibility for the use he makes of his wealth, which is potential power of service. Every man holds all his powers in trust. Talk of men as converted, as Christian men, who consciously and deliberately allow their property to be used for debasing and ruining their fellow men! Imagine that a man's heart and will can be converted to the service of God, and his property remain in the service of the devil! "Tis an utter impossibility! The conversion that does not reach a man's use of his property is no true conversion. There is no truly Christian man who keeps an unconverted pocket-book or bank account. Now, wealth must be used for service according to its own laws. Wealth is produc tive only as it is used as capital—that is, as wealth employed in the production of new wealth, of new values. Since wealth is "the usufruct of skill, intelligence, and morality," it places its owner under obligation steadily so to use it as to reproduce morality, intelligence and skill. The time owed to distinctively Christian effort, to work for the good of his fellow-men may be in part made good, if the wealth into which his efforts and time were coined is used nobly and wisely. And while no giving for Christian work can take the place of personal interest in Christian activity, yet many men could do infinitely more by free and consecrated gifts of large sums of money than they now do by formal expressions of their sense of unworthiness and lack of effort in the past, unaccompanied even now by any large use of their wealth for Christ's cause. "Redeem the time" that was withheld from God's service by you while you were making money. Redeem it, buy it back, by using your money conscientiously and generously for God's work.-Extract from address by Pres. M. E. Gates, LL. D. Corresponding Secretaries-Rev. Henry Kendail, D.D., Rev.
