PRIMITIVE FERRIES

The nayigators of White river have
no quarrel with the bridge builders.
From Newport, below Batesville. for
200 miles not q pier prOfanes the chan
neL Transportation from side TO side
is by ferry. There is a crossing every
mile or two. Quaint and primitive
some of The methods are. Most of the
ferryboats are small fat-bottomed
craft, without ratings on the sides or
gates az the ends. At a few of the
most frequeuted north and south roads
cable has been stretched from the
treetops high enough 70 escape the
steamboat cbimneys. The boat is at
tcched by ropes. bow and stern. to
pulley running on this cable. When
one line is heightened to give the boat
an angling direction with the stream.
the current slowly carries the load
over to the opposite bank. Such a la
bor-saying appliance, however, is in
use very sparingly. Most of the ferry
ing is done by hand with pole and
sweep. AS the Ozark country traveller
approaches within hailing distance of
the bank he begins 10 let his voice out
with:
"O-o-ov-er,"
In the course Of time there is an an
swering:
"Whoop-ee,
The forryman comes slowly down the
bank, with his brother. or his son, or
with somebody else's son, whom he
has persuaded il is great fun to help
run q ferrybOat. Travellers in the
Ozark country have often commented
ON the dispropOrtionate frequency with
which the boat is>1t the bank opposite
10 that approached. And ferrymen all
agree that by strange peryersity the
travel is from the direction necessi-
tauue q trip across and back to collect
one fare. There is time enough 10
mediate on this problem. While the
ferrymon slowly poles his frail craft
along the bank fer some distance up
stream. Then as he grasps the sweep
and pulls ont for the other side, with
much putting and perspiratiOn, there
is not time 70 think of anything else
but the inch of pine between dry shoe
leather and % current which means a
Ions hard swim if the boat goes amiss
Accidents are very few. The White
river ferryman knows his business and
earns his quarter.

vey who was directing the course OF the
boat. IS that your brother helping You
with the boat?'
Yes. said George. hes my broth

looking than You are.

but the ring dropped not into the open
grave. Days Of poverty came, and the
J hand did many hard days work, but
the rubbing Of the work against the
ring only made 1t shine brighter.
Shall that ring ever be lost? Will the
iron clang of the sepulcher gate crush
it forever? pray God that you who
have been married on earth may be to-
gether in Heaven. Oh by the quiet
bliss of your earthly home, by the
babes cradle, by all the vows of that
day when you started life together 1
beg you to see to it that you both get
into the ark.
Come in, and bring your wife or your
husband with you-not by fretting
about religion or dingdonging them
about religion, but by a consistent life
and by compelling prayer that shall
bring the throne of God down into
your room. Go home and take up the
Bible and read it together, and then
kneel down and commend your souls
to Him who has watched you all these
years, and before you rise there will
be duttering of wings over your
head, angel crying to angel, Behold,
they pray!"
But this does not include all your
family. Bring the children too. God
bless the dear children What would
our homes be without them? We may
have done much for them. They have
done more for us. What salve for a
wounded heart there is in the soft palm
of child"s hand! Did harp or flute
ever have such music as there is in a
child's good night?" From our coarse,
rough life the angels of God are often
driven back. But who comes into the
nursery without feeling that angels
are lowering around? They who die
in infancy go straight into glory, but
you are expecting your children to
grow up in this world. Is it not
question, then, which rings through
all the corridors and windings and
heights and depths of your soul, what
is to become of your sons and daugh-
ters for time and for eternity?
''Oh," you say, II mean to see that
they have good manners" Very we'll
II mean to dress them well, if have
myself to go shabby" Very good. II
shall give them an education; shall
leave them a fortune" Very well.
But is that all? Don't you mean to
take them into the ark? Don't you
know that the storm is coming, and
that out of Christ there is no safety, |
no pardon, no hope, no Heaven?
