PAGE EIGHT A POINT OF VIEW (continued from page two) tion. It will do you good. Remember: "Be not deceived, God is not mocked, as a man soweth, that shall he also reap." Does that mean that God is going to smite you? No! It simply means that the law is that what is sown, the fruit thereof shall be the nature of the seed. If you have personal grudges against any one, go to work and sow a seed of kindness by forgiving and forgetting the wrong they may have committed against you. Oh, but you say, you have no one who needs to forgive you, as you have done no wrong against any one, so how will you be reaping forgiveness by forgiving the person that did you wrong? Ah, but do not forget you have the Father's work to do, do you not? Do you not also say in the Lord's Prayer: "Thy will be done." And do you not agree that God is Good, Love and Kindness, so, it behooves you to do and be likewise in order to reap the desired harvest of your sowing. We think we know why a person does a thing, why a person is here and is there? But we don't. Our lives indicate we don't. Our very walk indicates we don't. Our tone of voice indicates we don't. Let's love one another. I don't mean to go out and take everybody in our physical arms. No, no. Let's love in our secret thought, so much so, that when we see them, our eyes will not droop or our lips curl up, but the smile that was there should remain there when our "ancestor enemy?" appears on the scene. The chances are LIGHT IN THE PHILIPPINES American Plan of Education Already Is Producing Results of Great Practical Value. The schools in the Philippines are probably brought closer to the people there than in any other country in the world. One of the government's handbooks on the schools explains that this is due to the fact that work has had to be done "and no other organization has been so well equipped to undertake it." This document adds: "Through its gardens, farms and food campaigns the agricultural interests have been aided. Children have been turned out to fight the locusts. Assistance has been given to the bureau of health in many instances by the information concerning health and epidemics. The schools, in conjunction with the bureau of health, undertook several years ago the training of Filipino girls as nurses. Aid has been given to the bureau of posts in popularizing its postal savings bank and in other ways. For several years the schools have been doing pioneer work in a public welfare movement. Through its library, its literary societies and its entertainments, the schoolhouse has become the social center of the community."

Our very walk indicate we don't. Our tone of voice indicate we don't. Let's love one another. I don't mean to go out and take everybody in our physical arms. No, no. Let's love in our secret thought, so much so, that when we see them, our eyes will not droop or our lips curl up, but the smile that was there should remain there when our "ancient enemy?" appears on the scene. The chances are if we could only see the pure heart of the ostricised one we would become more contrite and humble than the Magdelene for assassinating the character of one of God's new-born children. Let's remember and believe and PRACTICE, even though we do not get any applause from those whom we call friends. Let us practice what the poetess says: "So many gods, so many creeds. So many paths that wind and wind, While just the art of BEING KIND. Is all this sad world needs." Why the League of Nations Failed Many people are wondering why the league of nations has so soon become dilapidated and ineffective, when it gave promises of being just the thing for the troubles of the world. I will tell you: It was because God was left out of the proposition, out of the deliberations. Even as much of a churchman as President Wilson is, he must have been hypnotized by the glitter and glamor of foreign politics as to permit the document to be written without one single use of the word "God." It is a good indication of the jazzed state of the world mind. We mortals have an idea in our reads that we own the earth. We are mistaken. Good owns the earth. As in our individual lives, so in our world life, when we leave God out, everything goes awry. Just think of the impudence of mortal man trying to pacify the world without the help of God. God is not a myth. God is a Principle to be reckoned with in each and every life. And according to that recognition, so will be our lives.

Members of the British Women's mission, appointed by the British government to inquire into the prospects of settling former woman war workers in the commonwealth, must have been amused at the attitude of some state ministers in Victoria and Queensland. In both states the difficulties of pioneering work were pointed out as almost insuperable obstacles but the women's mission, with the knowledge of what had been accomplished in Britain and France, have not been discouraged, and as a result of their work numbers of British women will probably come to the commonwealth within the next year or two. Meanwhile some Australian politicians have obtained a new angle on women's possibilities. SOCIETY AMONG THE CAVEMEN.

In practicing before the ball game began last Sunday, Fred Cline, first baseman for the local team, had a thumb dislocated and badly lacerated. Dr. J. P. Brastad perfosmed a surgical operation and made the injured member as good a snow, but Fred was out of the game for the day. At a meeting of the committee on organization of the Chamber of Commerce held at the office of President Riley last Thursday night, a set of by-laws was adopted and will be presented to a full meeting of the chamber. Members of the organization committee were Romaine Berger, Dr. H. A. Johnston, Leonard Evans, A. W. Reeves, H. M. Adams, John H. Cook, H. H. Benjamin, W. A. Dolan, H. D. Riley William Goodrum and D. Jessurun. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Lautenbach left by auto last week for a tour to the northern part of the state where they will visit relatives. They expected to stop at the Yosemite. Walter Naugle and Robert Boyd, who worked last season for a big sugar factory in Cuba, are at home again spending the time between campaigns. Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Fay and Miss Ethel Archer left the latter part of the week for an extended trip to the north. They will visit Yellowstone park before returning. SOCIETY AMONG THE CAVEMEN. Mrs. Stonehammer—The Weekly Slate in its account of Pearl Bonechisel's wedding says the bride's father gave her away. Her Husband—Give her away, did he? Well, I reckon he had to, to get rid of her. But if it wasn't for her slack tongue an' her bad temper an' her scrawny figure an' monkey face he might 'a' got a squirrel skin or something for her. TRACTORS IN FORMOSA. With the exception of about ten tractors in operation on the sugar plantations, modern agricultural machinery is not in use in Formosa. Rice fields are too small to enable their owners to use such machinery profitably and tea plantations are of a character to make the use of tractors unnecessary. THE NATURAL RESULT. "I see where there is going to be a great car strike in Madrid." "Then all the people there will be walking Spanish." VERY MUCH SO. "Tom is going to give his wife a silk and silver-handled umbrella." "He must have made up his mind to open up." Home Town Helps BENEFIT OF LOCAL COUNCILS Deal With Matters Which Vitally Affect Welfare of Every Member of the Community. Are you a lonesome citizen or are you a neighborly citizen? Are you and yours getting a square deal in your district? Are the pavements, the street cars, the gutters clean and giving good service? Are the prices you pay for meat, potatoes, milk and bread, in your opinion, fair and right? Is the school furnishing your child a good education in return for your taxes? Is the landlord proinceering on your rent? These, according to the councils, are a few of the important matters of everyday city living which should have a satisfactory answer if a man is to remain a satisfied citizen in his community. To get a satisfactory answer he must be a member of his local council. "If these times," says a circular explaining the organization, "the community council is a ray of hope. It is a nonpolitical, nonsectarian neighborhood organization of the people—the voice of the neighborhood." Parenthetically, it may be added that a large part of the voice is feminine, thousands of nousewives being enrolled in the various locals.—Exchange. TO PREVENT LOSS BY FIRE Simple Rules, If Properly Observed. Will Lead to an Enormous FEW OWE FAILURE TO FATE Man Who Has "Lost Out" Generally Unjust In Blaming the Fact on Circumstances. "He who is bitter is beaten. This is distilled from a life," said a wise observer of his kind, a writer in Philadelphia Ledger remarks. Often one meets the man who has become soured by his own life through his own fault—though he blames it all on the chances and circumstances of destiny. He will not admit that the hand of a bad habit dragged him down or kept him from rising; that he made a misstep or took the wrong turn of the road. He prefers to charge impersonal fate with his personal failure. But he had the same right to struggle and win that we all have. The man whom he regards with envy had to prove that the stuff was in him against odds. The old proverb says that fortune favors the brave—but that saying really means that fortune plays no favorites and confers her gifts only upon those who fight, and fight hard. Success is not hereditary. We must qualify on our own merit. Any fool can inherit money and be parted from it quickly. The respect of the community, which is life's chief reward, goes to him earns it on his own account. In that continuing effort the fragrant memory of a noble family tradition and a plious and honest parentage is a valuable asset and a great inspiration. CAME DIRECT FROM HEAVEN Pretty Belief Existing in India Concerning the Origin of the Beautiful Emerald. Scientists say that the emerald's lovely grass-green color is derived from a compound of silica, alumina, beryllia, magnesia, soda, water and some organic matter unknown; others say that it is simply a compound of carbon. CHEER up! There is no further reason for worrying about table variety. The new Royal Cook Book gives new suggestions for every meal every day. The book is so full of surprises there will never be another dull meal in the home. Here are a few suggestions from the new Royal Cook Book. Plain Pastry This recipe is for one large pie with top and bottom crust 2 cups flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons Royal Baking Powder 1/4 cup shortening cold water Sift together flour, salt and baking powder; add shortening and rub in very lightly with tips of fingers (the less it is handled the better the paste will be). Add cold water very slowly, enough to hold dough together (do not work or knead dough). Divide in halves; roll out one part thin on floured board and use for bottom crust. After ple is filled roll out other part for top. Rich Pastry 2 cups pastry flour 1/2 teaspoon Royal Baking Powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup shortening cold water Sift flour, baking powder and salt; add one-half shortening "Bake with TO PREVENT LOSS BY FIRE Simple Rules, If Properly Observed, Will Lead to an Enormous Annual Saving. Use only safety matches and make it impossible for children to get them. Always place burned matches in metal receptacles; never throw them on the floor or into waste baskets. To smoke in garages, in bed or around stables containing hay is deliberately to invite disaster. One or more approved chemical fire extinguishers should be placed in every home. They must be protected against freezing. It is well to see that the garden hose may be attached to the kitchen faucet. Have the telephone number of the nearest fire station on a special card at your telephone. Familiarize the family with the operation of the nearest fire alarm box. After operating a fire alarm stay near it to direct the firemen to the fire. Every minute is important. Don't fall to notify the chief of the fire department of anything you may see in the neighborhood that is dangerous or liable to cause fire.—Exchange. Plea for Home Ownership. From Portland, Ore., a western view of what the own-your-own-home campaign means to the nation has been received by the United States department of labor. William A. McRae of the Bank of California writes: "Whether the home is a cottage or a palace, it equally shelters and enshrines the sacred love and devoted affection of all that is best and worthiest in our common humanity. Why should every married man own his home? "First, to give his wife a chance to make a home, which is the natural desire of the normal woman, who in the cramped quarters of the boarding house or apartment lacks sufficient breathing space. Secondly, to supply his family with an environment where paternal love and devotion may have ample room and the privacy so essential to enable parents to train their children by setting before them in their plastic stage an example worth while." CAME DIRECT FROM HEAVEN Pretty Belief Existing in India Concerning the Origin of the Beautiful Emerald. Scientists say that the emerald's lovely grass-green color is derived from a compound of silica, alumina, beryllia, magnesia, soda, water and some organic matter unknown; others say that it is simply a compound of carbon and hydrogen resulting from organic matter; but the ancient inhabitants of India knew better than the modern scientists. They believed the emerald came from heaven. Says Forbes in his "Oriental Memoirs:" "A person was watching a swarm of fireflies in an Indian grove one moonlight night. After hovering a time in the moonbeams, one particular firefly, more brilliant than the rest, alighted on the grass and there remained. A spectator, struck by its fixity and approaching to ascertain the cause, found not an insect, but an emerald, which he appropriated and wore in a ring, and ever after the Indians believed that the fireflies were sacred insects which upon dying on the grass turned to emeralds for the adornment of man and the glorification of Buddha." That is perhaps the reason why the priests of Buddha regard the emerald with such veneration. Of course no firefly can now make an emerald, but emeralds certainly do make the money fly. When the Sun Was Blue. A blue sun has been recorded only once. That was in August, 1883, in Java, says the Kansas City Star. A day or two before there was a very violent eruption of a large volcano about a hundred miles from Batavia. The eruption ended with an explosion in which a range of mountains was destroyed, a vast cavity being left in its place, more than a thousand feet deep at one point. Billions of tons of rocks, mud and dust were thrown high in the air and the sun was obscured over a large area. At Batavia the darkness became so deep that street lamps had to be lighted in the middle of the afternoon. That condition prevailed until toward sunset. Then the volcanic cloud began to clear away, leaving the sun visible. Instead, however, of it being red, as it usually is when viewed through a smoke cloud, it appeared as a magnificent deep blue diak, remaining that color until it sank below the horizon. The phenomenon was seen by everyone within 30 or 40 degrees of the equator. HARPER CELEBRATES JULY 10th What promises to be a unique program, will be staged for the first time in the county at Harper school grounds, Saturday, July 10 at 2 o'clock. Pigs and boys are going to be the stellar performers. The pig club boys and girls of the Harper farm center are putting on the finishing touches this week and next. Pigs are getting their regular baths and brushing as never before. Pigs will be pigs on July 10. They will be assembled in JOHN OF Announce candidate "First, to give his wife a chance to make a home, which is the natural desire of the normal woman, who in the cramped quarters of the boarding house or apartment lacks sufficient breathing space. Secondly, to supply his family with an environment where paternal love and devotion may have ample room and the privacy so essential to enable parents to train their children by setting before them in their plastic stage an example worth while." Old, but Ever True. It is in part to help the spiritual growth and to teach the "young iden" of community spirit "how to shoot" that the chamber of commerce published in its monthly bulletin lines like these: If you like to live in the kind of a town Like the kind of a town you like, You needn't slip your clothes in a grip And start on a long, long hike. You'll only find what you left behind, For there's nothing that's really new. It's a knock at yourself when you knock your town. It isn't the town, it's you. Real town aren't made by men afraid Lest somebody else gets ahead. When everyone works and nobody shirks, You can raise a town from the dead. And if while you make your personal stake Your neighbors can make one, too, Your town will be what you want to see, It isn't the town, it's you. Many Small Homes Built. The building projects of 1919 figure up to $2,000,000,000 for the whole country, according to a New York authority. The most interesting feature of the matter is the fact that an unprecedented percentage of the building was in the building of small homes. Community's Big Four. The church, the school, the county agent, the local newspaper—these are the Big Four in community life. Birds Hold Dances. Many of the birds of South America have the regularly formed habit of meeting periodically in the same place for the purpose of dancing. Some sing as they dance, others accompany the refrain by something very like instrumental music. The rupicola dances alone, says the Detroit Free Press. Birds of this species range themselves in a circle round level, mossy or soft ground, and one of them, bright with orange and scarlet plumage, leaves the circle and advances to the center of the space with the dignity of a courter dancing a minuet, his wings spread and tail like a fan. He begins slowly, gradually increasing the speed of his gyrations until he terminates his performance by leaping and whirling. Humanity In Art. Pictures must not be too picturesque. Nothing astonishes men so much as common sense and plain dealing. All great actions have been simple and all great pictures are. The Transfiguration by Raphael is an eminent example of this peculiar merit. A calm, benignant beauty shines over all this picture, and goes directly to the heart. It seems also to call you name. The sweet, sublime face of Jesus is beyond praise; yet how it dispoints all fond expectations. This familiar, simple, home-speaking countenance is as if one should meet a friend.—Emerson.
