a portion from the Gospel according to St. John. The Apostle Paul in

Christ. Yea verily, and I count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord..."

It is when we forfeit the things which would be gain to us to find the righteousness which is in Christ that "loss becomes profi- table." Again Paul speaks words of truth when he says, “what doth 1t Profit a man tr he gain the whole world but forfeit his own soul." To that man a loss would be- come a profit.
