Those who study the process of life have often pointed out, in many striking ways, how life develops by a sort of rhythm of life and death. The two things go on de by side and are necessary to each other. While new life is always appearing, the old life is always wearing out and dying. At the very moment when the shell of the old seed is breaking up the new, the young green corn, emerges from it.

We are living to-day in an age when new life, new thought, new theories are appearing with starting rapidity in almost every department of life. And it is invigorating to remind ourselves how this old world is always teeming with new life. But because we all grow old so quickly we find it some- times a little difficult, a little disconcert- ing. It is particularly difficult in the sphere of religion.
