But have most of us learned the
Christian lessons of patience? Like
James Whitcomb Riley, can we thank
God for the rain rs we'll as the sun
shine? When things go all right. then
we are right But when anything goes
wrong we haye-not learned the lessons
of gospel patience. Then we speak
words which we ought not To speak

upon the heads of the mighty kings of
the air. There they have sat and peck
ed and pecked until they have pecked
into the brains Of the eagles and tum-
bled their dead bodies down into the
dust Thus quick temper, the inabiii

right But we are all wrong when any
thing goes wrong Thus God eXiled
Moses in INDIAN to teach him patience
Thus God is holding many of us iii OF
scure positions until we learn to GOV
ern ourselves.
But again | learn that God sent
Moses into his INDIAN exile to teach
him the practicalities of life. Moses
by his education was sage, but Moses
was a tlreorist For many years he
had been a cloud dweller or vision
airy dreamer. IN ali probability in the
temple of Karnak he had learned all
the theories of government But theo-
ry and fact do not always nest as twir
sisters in the same cradle. He had de
veloped his head. but not his hands.
So God. in order to fit him for practi-
cal leadership, made him work with
| his hands and his feet as well as with
his brain. when Moses went down
| into the land of indian, he not emily
| had to go to work, but he had to hire
| himself out to do the work of a com
mon shepherd. Have you not heard
how he helped the daughters Of Reuei
| to water their foeks?
Metlinks | can now see him guard
ing his sheep down in the pasture

Each of the sailor boys who
left on the United States battle
ships last Monday for the far
west carried with him Bible.
The book is gift from Helen
Miller Gould-whose name is in
scribed on the fly-leaf. The
sailors will find their bibles help
full. Whatever the religious in
clination or teaching of the indi-
vidual, the Bible is all right. 1t
is book of elemental morals. II
is fine literature--the basis of all
literature. 1t is history, too,
and it is the best example af con-
densation and phrasing known to
the English language. Whether
the sailor be christian or Jew,
pagan or atheist the little book
presented him by Miss Could
will be fine, worthy companion
for a far-and maybe hard
Journey.

Some of the rabid opponents
of President Roosevelt and his
policies are making a great howl
because he sent troops to Gold.
field, Nevada. They were or.
dered there at the request of the
governor and the president stated
that is was merely a precau-
tionary measure and the rights
of no honest, law-abiding citizen
would be hurt by their presence.
That seems fair.

Some of the editors of the
state threaten to publish the
names of their muchly delinquent
subscribers-if they don't settle
pretty soon. That ought to fetch

wouldn't even blush it they saw
their names wallowing in the
offal of hog pen.

suggested the desirability of
