The place draws coolness from the Hudson, and It Is saved from monotony by Its well-wooded hills. It Is not strange that it has been necessary to draw restrictions tighter to keep the Ardsley reservation from being overrun with restless millionaires and their families seeking a haven. It was Mrs. George Gould who, after a visit to the Edwin Goulds, said that Ardsley was the “rest spot" of America. Of course.

Thlt Is a lesson of the strongest possible contresis. We are to tee Christ's majes '.y at Its highest point of earthly glory, and his humility at Its lowliest.

"One calls me the Teacher; another, the Lord.”—Bishop Middleton. "Cop responding to which the followers were disciples or servants.''—Professor VlneenL "Thsre was no title so lofty. honor so exalted, no devotion so absolute, that Christ rejected It at the hands of men."—Rev. J. Ritchie Smith. Tbe second part of the explanation was that Christ's deed was given as an example. It "was ssylng In tbs language of action that the Son of man ne not to be ministered unto but minister, and that the law of hit kingdom was the law of helpfolnes. (Mark 10:42-46)."—Professor Gilbert Certainly no one of them would claim be greater than Christ They were servants/be was their confessed Lord They were apostles, "men sent" (v the sovereign that sen) them forth. Surely, therefore. If he had washed their feet they also ought another's feet "By tbigreat object lesson Christ taught the apostles, and his disciples througkoir time, that tha noblest end man's endeavor Is lovlnx service."—Prof. Nosh K.
