Sunshine Sympathy.

There are few people. especially in our
own homeland, who do not sympathize
In some measure, at least with the sor-
rows and misfortunes of others; but il
Is only the strong of heart who express
their sympathy in kind words and loving
deeds that are of real assistance to those
in need of help. The man or woman
who is only sympathetic to the extent Of
feeling sorry for others in their unhappi-
ness, and make no effort by word or deed
to give expression to their sympathy, are
of little or no help to those in need or
real, true sympathy. Sunshine sympathy
is the sturdy, stanch, practical sort, that
always lends hand when the need of it
exists.

"As the Lord Appointed Me-"
This thing OH which thy heart was set, this
thing that cannot be
This weary. disappointing day that dawns, my
friend, for thee
Be comforted; God knoweth best, the God whose

Whose tender care is eyermore our passing lives

He sends the disappointment? Well, then take
1t from his hand.
Shall Gods appointment seem less good than
what myself had planned?
Twas in thy mind to go abroad-He bids thee

Oh, happy home thrice happy If to it thy

Twas in thy mind thy friend to see-the Lord
says: Nay, not yet
Be confident the meeting time thy Lord will
not forget.
Twas in thy mind to work for him-his will
is: Child, sit stil.'
And surely tits thy blessedness to mind the

Accept thy disappointment, friend, thy gift
from Gods own hand.
Shall Gods appointment seem less good than

So, day by day. and step by STEP sustain thy
failing strength;
From strength to strength indeed, 60 thru

God bids thee tarry and then; forbear the
weak complaint.
Gods leisure brings the weary rest and cordial
gives the faint.
God bids thee labor-and the place is thick with
thorn and briar;
But he will share the hardest task until he calls
thee higher.
So take each disappointment, friend; tits at thy
Lords command;
Shall Gods appointment less good than
what thyself had planned?

Music In Your Own Corner.

There are all sorts Of bird notes in the
air nowadays, and no two are alike. And
did you ever notice that those songsters
that cannot hope to rival the thrush or
even the bluebird, pipe away at their own
modest little tune as If all the world
were listening? That is the example for
you girls to follow. Keep singing even
tho your voice is not as sweet and strong
as that of another girl. Make music in
your own small corner. Whether any
one else listens or not, your own heart
will be the lighter for the song.

Had a Good Entertainment.

The entertainment at the Star
school last Friday evening was a
big success. All who attended were
delighted and speak in high terms
of the good time had and the care
full training of the pupils. A fea-
ture of the evening that was es-
pecially commented on was the
lantern drill, which was excellent.
The baskets netted the neat sum
of $26, the bidding being sharp and
spirited. The quilt was bought by
Mrs. J. A. Taylor for $40, and the
amount realized from the sale of
quilt blocks was $42. The school
will now be able to pay for it's organ.
Great credit is due Miss Murrel

The week was warm and sun

eastern and western portions, while
excessive rains fell in the central
portion, except small area in the
vicinity of Grayson and Warren
counties. where drouth Is becoming
severe The weather was favorable
for maturing corn and tobacco. and
the recent rains have insured the
maturing of late corn and aided
blowing for wheat and rye A large
amount of tobacco was cut and
housed during the week
Corn Is now practically safe
crop of excellent quality and large
yield. Early paintings are being cut
or pulled for fodder and the late is
ripening fast, the exception being
in Grayson and Warren counties.
where drouth has necessitated its
use for fodder to save it.
Tobacco matured rapidly during
the week aud much was cut and
housed: the late tobacco was also
helped by rain, but 1t was detrimen-
tai to leaf in the barn. The crop is
reported up to the average, in most
localities. but there is also COM
plant of trouble from worms. une-
venness in the size of plants, and
some damage from houseburning.
Millot, peas and sorghum are good
crops, and millet has been harvested
in good condition. Pastures continue
green over much of the state.
Peaches have been unsatisfactory;
the crop is light and mostly gather
