Well, Mr.. Editor. as / am about

In your Issue Of the 9th there was
in adjoining columnsS'a q letter from
Pindar wv. j. Rochelle) and my
self and on the same page letter
from J. j. Garnett and as / read
those letters my mind went back
to our boyhood days. days, if / see
things right. quite different from
those days. Pindar is the Oldest of
the trio. Now he and Jabez are in
the far west and I am hundred
miles from our boyhood homes and
neither one of us can expect to be
here in this life but avery few more
years and possibly but a few months
or even days bat what does that
matter,if we are what We should }be.
In your issue of this week it was
quite different from the week be.

of them knew well, Mrs. Winn
and Mrs. w. J. Talbert and the
other Mrs. Lewis Wood whose par
ents / knew and to each of the be-
reaved ] send my deepest sympathy.
For I know for years ago too wac
called upon to pass through the
deep waters of sorrow. We some
times wonder why God does some
things as he does, but let us remem-
Der that He makes no mistakes and
if we are His children some time
we may know, and be glad it was
just dis God saw it to do. Trust
God is the thing to do through all
our trials. 1t is hard ] know but
God is just and does not bring these
sorrows for naught. Oh, no, He has
a purpose in all that He does. 1t

Poem by Rev. John Lake.
Johnston, i: S. G.


The following is taken from the
bulletin Of the First Baptist church
of Seattle, Wash.
Rev and Mrs. John Lake, who
have been resting in our city for
the past few months, sail tomorrow
for their mission field in South
China. They have greatly endear-
ed themselves to our church and
may be assured of our constant love
and prayers. The following poem
is from Mr.. Lakes facile pen:
y Submission.
"Father. pleased" the only cry
/ My hungry heart could give:
Father, pleasei-or let me die;
Icould not bear to i've"
But light came not, nor Joy, nor peace:
My groaning heart found no release.
Gas you please, o Father, = then
My heart was weary, sore
81 cannot plead my cause again;
| cannot wrestle more!
And. when my fainting soul awoke,
The boon was granted ere spoke.

of the dirtiest and most unsanitarv

AS in every other branch Of
housework. proper tools are neces-
sary. There are conservative
women who still wash dishes with
dish rag instead of a mop. They
do not realize that with a mop
much hotter water can be used. and
half the pleasure of washing dishes
is in having plenty of clean. hot
soap suds There are still many
women who put their dish pan in
the sink, instead of on il, not stop
ping to consider that this renders
tiresome STOPPING necessary.
Place the dish pan on the left
side of the sink. over the sink fas-
ten securely a rack on which TO
drain the dishes. Have a large tray
on the right hand Of the sink on
which 10 place the dishes as they
are dried. 'Ctis can be carried into
the cupboard at one trip. OF
course. a serving tray on wheels is
even better and indeed saves so
many extra steps. both in the serr-
