The sleet comes down from the
skies. and when II comes. is pure and
undeflei So do we come from heav-

spark of the divine in each of us.
The sleet clings to that which sup

cling close to God who supports and
upholds US.
The sleet beauties whatever Il
touches. SO should we. In the sun
light the sleet reflects all the oolors
of the rainbow and glorines the
heart. So should we reflect the char
acter of Christine Son OF Right

Under the softenlng influences OF
the sun the sleet. softens, melts and
becomes more ethereal. so should
our hearts under the influences Of
Christ soften and become more and
more spiritual In their nature.
Finally-the sleet, having perform

Our duty is to obey God and glori-

Mn. BATHROOM WILL RETURN

Mr.. y. w. Katterjohn, Of the Kat
terjohn Construction Co.. returned
yesterday from Panama canal where
he had been looking into the sltua-
tlon with view to securing some
of the contracts.
Contractor Kattorjohn left Padu-
cab on January and sailed out OF
New York on the 18th. lie was In
Panama eleven days and will return
again in about sixty days when he
thinks he will be able to announce
something definite In regard to his
plans.
There are several kinds of work
which come under Mr.. Katterjohn's
class OF contracting and he may en-
ter them all but will not work by
the day. At present the canal work
II under a board OF commissioners
and the work is done by the day.
President Roosevelt is attempting to
have the work done by contract, and
Mr.. Katterjohn and Chief Engi-
neer Wallace of the canal, are in
Innate friends. Mr.. Katterjohn went
TO Cedar BLUM this morning and will
return this afternoon. Friday and
Saturday he will be in Chicago on
business connected with the Pana-
ma work and will return home again
next week.
There are good openings, Il Ia I'M
derstood. for brick and lime kiln
work and also stone blasting and
quarry.
The Paducah contractor stated
that in event the commissioners re-
taIned the power Of management. he
would not enter the business but II
the work was done by contract, he
would go In for IT, II he gets any OF
the work he will employ anywhere
from two to three thousand men. He
says accountants and clerks are over
running that country and the most
needed men are mechanical enRi-
neers and skilled foremen. lie saw
