NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
REV. C. ARTHUR LINCOLN. 
Continued from. first page, first column 
from the following text: “‘And David’s 
anger was kindled against the man’’ (2 
Saml#12:5.:) 
He spoke of the ‘““Power of Imagina- 
tion;’’ not fancy, but imagination that 
affects the will, the imagination that goes 
to the heart of things and seeks for 
essential truth. Following are a few 
excerpts from his sermon: 
“The power of imagination is the 
great lever.to success in life. None of 
us can read Dante’s works without per- 
ceiving that his imaginative power is far 
superior to ours. Nobody can look up- 
on the great paintings without perceiving 
that the imaginative power of the artists 
is far ahead of ours. 
“This power of imagination in con- 
nection with the ethical life of ours is a 
power that is growing. In the days of 
the ancient Greeks sculpture was the 
predominant art; then there was the 
musical age, and then came painting, 
etc. We cannot attain unto the heights 
which these attained, but our power of 
imagination today and in the days to 
come is the power of imagination to 
place ourselves. in another man’s place 
and perceive how he thinks and how he 
feels. 
““One of the things of the old day 
was a man couldn’t see how his act af- 
fected the other man. In our day we 
see the struggle in a man’s heart and we 
see what affect our acts have on him. 
‘‘Not only unchristian men, but christ- 
ian men find within themselves a 
thousand devils to ight. What ruins we 
have in men who cannot work their 
imagination on the moral side of life!

“‘Occasionally among christian people 
there come to the surface sad indications 
of what has all the time been surging to 
the surface within them. When a man 
is able to see himself as he is, this en- 
ables him to see what is in other men. 
““When you and I are honest with 
ourselves then we not only abstain from 
doing wrong, but we strive honestly to 
do whatever is right. How easy it is to 
forgive when you and I place ourselves 
beside the other man. 
‘“The progress of the race depends 
not only on our doing right but on our 
children. ‘The divorce problem is one 
of the problems of the age. Men argue 
that there ought to be liberty of divorce; 
that true marriage is marriage of the 
heart. ‘There is truth in this but there 
is the after effect,—the effect on the 
child. 
‘*The progress of our race is bound 
up in the child. What is the great 
economic driving power here? It is 
wealth? No. Is it happiness? No. 
Is it companionship with one another in 
this great land? No. If you would go 
to the very secret of the economic world 
you must go to the home, —to the child 
in the cradle and in the school, for the 
father and mother will go to the child 
when they will work for nothing else. 
“You and I, if we would work for the 
best interest of the race, must devote 
ourselves to the development of the race 
through the child.

Rev. Mr. Lincoln preached a short 
sermon on “Eternal Life,’’ taking as his 
text: But the gift of God is eternal life 
through Jesus Christ our Lord.’’ 
(Rom. 6: 23.) He said in part: 
‘Did you ever stop to think whether 
in eternal life you would like to live as 
an old person or young? You will ans- 
wer ‘young,’ at once. But how 
young? At the age when you are full 
of the vigor of life, when the mental and 
physical vigor is at its best. But this is 
not true life; there is something else to 
think of. ‘There is something more than 
old age. ‘There is a chance for eternal 
life. 
‘‘All the weather conditions of the 
body are governed by the conditions of 
the upper atmosphere of oursouls. We 
know that even though the soul be pure, 
the heart be good, the body must perish. 
I have seen old men at 30, and I have 
seen in this community young men at 
80. ‘The higher the faith the truer the 
light. . 
‘“‘What a man wants to do is to get 
hold of the real person in life,—the per- 
son of God. ‘The only true wealth is in 
the companionship of life, and the only 
true companionship is that of Jesus 
Christ. . 
‘* “Build thee more stately mansions, 
oh my soul.’ ”’
