as if they said, This is such an ugly
spot=not fit for flowers. We will not
bemean ourselves by growing here"
And then we planted a slip of the
ue-eyed Susan, and instead of sulk-
ing and fading it thrived and flourish
ed and blossomed and spread until
soon that ugly scar in our garden was
quite healed
1t isn't a very beautiful flower. nor
unusually fragrant. It's just sturdy,
wholesome, happy, little blue-eyed
thing that grows and thrives and pro
duces as much beauty as it knows how
wherever you plant it.
And do you know, it seems to me
that just as 1 love and am proud OF
my blue-eyed Susan. so God must be
proud of His blue-eye yed-Susan folks.
You know what I mean-the dear,
sturdy. simple, cheerful folks who
don't disdain to thrive and blossom
and bring forth all the beauty they
know how to, no matter how unfnter-
esting or how cheerless or unfertile
the plot of ground in which God has
seen fit to plant them.
While we are admiring and praising
the wonderful rose, or orchid, or
poppy, people that bloom in beauty
and fragrance in some fertile spot in
the worlds garden, who knows but
He is far more proud of His blue-eyed
Susan folks. You know who they are
the self-ignoring mOthe- who brings
a measure or harmony and happiness
into the home where there would be
only discord without her, the sweet old
maid aunt who thrives in cheerful in
industry in the unpropitious soil of a
married sisters or brothers home, the
father who into life which is one un-
ending round of relentless toll and self
denial, can still bring optimism and
Iva bleness.
"Commonplace people" they are, of
course. besides the wonderful rose and
orchid and poppy people
But think how many ugly spots
there would be in this garden of life,
if they refused to grow in them.
Perhaps you, my reader-friend, are
one of those blue-eyed Susan people
If you are, God bless you-and I
know He will.

It's just q sturdy little blue flower

In that rough, ugly unfertile bit of
ground by the stoop, we have tried to
make many things grow. Nasturtiums,
pansies, geraniums and rose bush we
have planted there from time to time.

Springtime is here and the farmers
are about ready to plow over corn and
some cotton is being planted.
The beautiful birds are singing and
feasting on the green grass that is gilt
tering over the prairies and extending
down the hills into the meadow where
the lark sings and dances as vegetation
springs up and grows so beautiful that
it appears to me as token of good
crop the farmers are looking forward
to and expecting to come this year.
Health is not very good at this writ
ing as there are various kinds of con-
tagious diseases spread almost through
out the country and the death angel is
visiting often and claiming unexpected
persons. who are careless and not aware
of the passage of scripture that says.
''Be We therefore, ready for in such an
hour as ye think not the Son of man
cometh.
If we would think and consider how
brittle the thread of life is and then
look forward to the coming of Christ
and make ready to 60 with him and
dwell in peace and happiness where
there will be no parting of friends and
no sorrow but eternal happiness for
ever.
We are only swift passengers from
time to eternity and are just living day
by day, and only have the promise of
life moment at time, but yet people
will sweep through the age of this life
and make no decision for the one to
come.
/ am bound to drift a step or two in
to politics as we had such fine lecture
on prohibition Tuesday night by Bro.
B. F. Fronebarger, that brought to E1y
mind things that go to show that we
as citizens should prohibit if possible
the selling of the intoxicating stuff that
is running thousands Of homes and caus-
ing many to be bound in the walls of
the penitentiaries of every state in the

it carries In every state in the union.
