Take heed that we despise not one
of these little ones: for say unto you
that in heaven their angels do always

is in heaven" Is there not in every
one of them, as in you. the light that
lighteth every man that comcth into
the world? And know you not who that
light is. and what he said of little
children? Then take heed. I say. lest
you despise one of these little ones.
Listen not to the Pharisee when he
says: Except the little child be con-
verted. and become as I am. he shall
in nowise enter into the kingdom of
heaven. But listen to the voice Of him
who knew what is in man, when he
said: Except we be converted. we
shall not enter into the kingdom of
heaven" Their souls are like their

next question as to the most prac-

conditions. The new owners who
dealt with this many-sided problem
had as a rule, little capital. Land
had largely changed hands. Some by
deaths consequent to war, some by
foreclosure of debts, that war had
prevented being cared for. Conse-
quently the new owner had relatively
few acres. He had to make them
yield and with limited capital and
labor conditions absolutely revolu-
tionized, he had no easy task. He had
to learn a new business. Scientific
