BIBLES FOR SEVEN
 AT PARK CHURCH On Children's Sunday - One Infant RaPtlzed-Lessons from Timothy's Life.


 For ehildren's Sunday Park church was prettily decorated with snowaalls and iris. The Sunday school occupied the prominent place in the church and in the service, which was special one for them. One infant received the rite of baptism and seven children who have reached 8 years of age were giv- en Bibles. These were Ralph H. Marsh, Elizabeth R, Huntington. Edward J. Graham, IT,, Edith I. Grosofski, Mar shall V. Howe, Robert E. Eastwood and Arthur r. Dempski. Besides the re- sponsive service and familiar hymns, the pastor, Rev Dr. 5. H. Howe. gave the children short sermon, taken from I. Timothy, F, 19: This charge I com init unto thee, that thou mightest war a good warfare, holding faith, and 8 good conscience; which some having put away have made shipWreek." He urged all young people, like Timothy, t6 enlist in this big campaign against evil and to seek for hard and difficult tasks like brave soldiers. Also hold faith-faith in great men and heroes who become models, Especially faith in the greatest hero of all, Jesus Christ. He must be more than hera-he must be Saviour, too. A good conscience is equally necessary to sense properly right and wrong.
 The offering, as usual, was for the Rock Nook Home.

"There was another woman with a solid gold bag who spent her summer at the lake last year and who used to leave the bag on logs in the woods or on steps when she went calling on the cottagers. The children, finding it on the steps, would gleefully bury it Ia their sand forts and forget all about what they had done. and then for hours all the resoFters and inn servants would madly search for that bag
 When they had uprooted all the shFubbery and devasted their hamea and politely accused everybody elssI and when nearly all the maids and nurses had burst into tears and thrown up their positions, somebody would ae- cidentally kick over the sand fort and fall upon the bag with a yelp of joy. Then every one would mop her or his fevered brow and call for lemonade and fans and talk about how they hated that woman! She actually seemed to enjoy the eornmotion shR caused every day or so and when she left they gave her a big party. theH were so glad to be rid of her. Must you go ended the girl whss taking along this gold bag see you are leaving behind? l presune yeu forgot it!'

CONCi R ING GOLD BAGS

The girl who likes to talk drowned and edged away from the gold mes3 bag 'careiessly thrown down beside her.
 Take it away she ordered. It's a solid one. as I can easily see, and II makes me nervous to near It.. I'm afraid of their infuencei Now, l can face a German silver gold washed one without fiinching; but run me 4p against a solid gold bag and l Deg. to get chils and fever. l guess It $ because 1 am always so oYerpaWered by the thought of several hundred d9'-. lars tied up in such a small bit ot frivolity.
 Now, if I owned one-if. that is some relative should catch me and bind and gag me and thrust solid gold bag upon me by main foree--l think l should devote the rest of fny life to sheltering it and giYingeit tha reverence which was it's, due. l know I should waken in the night with Q shriek, thinking 1 had not locked it ur in the jewel case that wasin the seore drawer of the tine-lock sale behind a padlocked closet door. And l know that in my waking hours l shou;d either sit upon it or wear it chain 9o to me.

TAXING YOUR
 INCOME

What would yau think of an income tax equal to the amount of money you waste each year by careless buying?
 The sum would startle many of us who are not considered ex- travagant in the common ac- ceptance of the word. And yet we go along the even tenor of our way, happy that we have enough to live on and a little to spare, perhaps.
 But, aside from extravaganees as such, are you taxing your in- come more than you should in your every day purchasing of the neeessaries of life? That is the important question.
 It is so easy foF us Americans to indulge In careless buying that 1t beheoves all of us to pay attention to what We buy and Where we buy 1t, We must maka cur dollars work for Us 100 per cent. ar we are taxing our in- comes consistently.

"TRat is why the women who actual- ly do own solid gold bags make me g nervous. The minute you possess one it is the correct thing to act as though it were the mud under your feet or as though you were so sick of haviLs them cluttering up your pathway ma you simply couldn't stand 1t anothe- minute! You can't belong to the claF at all unless you learn to scatter yuuy bag around recklessly where people will find il and have heart disease for fear they won't get it back te you be- fore you have called out the police re- serves and set them on their trail.
 Tt is-,always the people who dol'i own them who do the worrying.
 Why. I once knew Q man who used to run around with 8 girl who owned a solid geld bag, and she carried 1t up- on every occasion, of course. She used to drop il between seats at the theatre and remember she had done SC when they were three =auarteFs of the way home And then the man woulo be obliged to spend the rest of the night chasing up jaNitors and boS office men and routing them out of bed and groYeling under parauet seats ei travelling miles to the residence of the usher on that aisle and having talk with him.
 "The bag always was found. ol course, and the person finding 1t was only too tickled 10 get rid Of it per fecly delighted to pas it over to the harassed young man. But that did not help much at 1 or or. 6 o'clock n the morning, when he was due at the office gain at s. If this particular gf did not drop it at the theatre she woule leave it on the table al the cafe, and then, when she telephoned this un- fortunate young man at a. IT. thai she had just remembered doing so ani would he very much mind seeing abou' it, he knew lie was in for neaF-rta with all the walters at that restaurant and that he would never dare face the naughty head waiter in that particular place again, even if all the other res taufants burned up and he had tC starve to death. Really by the end o' the winter he was the most popularl5 hated young man in town at reStarI rants and box offices.
 "Once she lost it or the suburban train, discovering the fact when they arose to leave She said of course he could easily find it. Showing her into her front door the young man tore back to the station and caught the same train on it's return trip to towf and tackled the conductor, popeyeC with anxiety and responsibility an6 hopelessness Gold hag?' repeated the conductor casually. 'Sure-here it is. I picked it up right after you left!'
