Teachers and pupils, But we must go on "now we are seven;". The children grow up and go to school and now children, parents and teachers must combine as a team in the further training. Here we come to the second parable... We are now servants and our Master gives us these talents to use for Him and our school time is the great time for their development and our teachers are God's, given to us to use for Him, We cannot choose what they shall be or how many—He decides that. Our duty is to develop them and use them for Him, What a glorious time our school time should be and its extension, if it may be so extended, into ihe ' University. Here we learn to read, and all the. wisdom of all the ages and all nations is unrolled before us that we may be wise; we learn to write and we can reach out to our friends in all the world and if God gives us a message we may hand it down to the ages to come; we learn arithmetic and how to put two and two together and all the mysteries of the stars and of the atoms are ours, and all the sciences are opened before us and we see the wonder of the works of God and we learn to work with Him and make His good gifts available for the use of His children in all the world. What an opportunity for teachers to take these children of God, with their God-given talents and train them to be God's fellow-workers, Again, one would covet the tongues of angels to urge teachers to use to the full the privileges of their high and holy calling to keep this development on the lives of His whose alm it was to be about His Father's business, whose meat it was to do the will of Him that stut Him and to finish His work.
