Don't read in a glare, or facing

Don't read unless the light falls
over your left shoulder. It may take
a little contriving to manage this,
especially If one is in an office, but
1t pays to make the effort.
Don't read when you are tired or
sleepy. You do not take in what you
are reading and you are taking 1t
out Of your eyes.
Don't read, and rock at the same
time. It is delightfully."- American,

the occulists as do the Americans.
Don't read On the cars II your eyes
are inclined to give you trouble.

practice does not seem to hurt, SO 1t
Is impossible to make hard and fast
rules.
Don't read lying down unless you
can elevate your book to it's usual
position opposite the eyes. Many
readers break this rule with i'm

pecially when one is a convalescent.

something Of Interest About the
star-spanalsd Banner.
Many Of the early Tags Of the col.
onists were to a large extent pat
termed after the Union Jack Of Great
Britain. The flag of the Grand
Union, raised at Cambridge. 177e.
was the first used by the army that
had the 10 alternate red and white
stripes. 1t was designed at q time
when the colonists still acknowledged
the legal rights Of the mother coun.
try. and retained the blended crosses
OF st. George and st. Andrew, chang
ing only the red field Of the old de-
sign for the 10 stripes emblematic Of
their union.
Asa matter Of fact. red. white and
blue. but principally red and white,
are the prevailing colors of almost
all OF the national emblems of the
world. Just why this is has never
been satisfactorily explained, though
1t might seem to be accounted for in
the fact that red, which has always
been regarded as the color Of def
.anoe, has figured prominently in the
banners of armies In time of war, and
perhaps further in the fact that white
n red are the two most conspicu-
GUS colors. The stars In a blue field
OF the United States flag are sup
posed to represent a new constella-
ton. There is a legend concerning
the origin of the colors of the Amer
lean flag, thatathe white was intended
TO signify purity Of purpose on the
part of the revolutionists; red, the
blood that was shed for liberty, and
blue, the canopy of heaven and free,
dom. Whether this has any actual
foundation or not is impossible to
say.

THE CHURCH As
AS0C|A| Center
A Broader Sphere for RelIolon-Nsw
Field for the Rural Church.
BY Peter Radford

Lecturer National Farmers Union
The social duty of the rural church
is as much a part of its obligations
as its spiritual side. In expressing its
social interest, the modern rural
church does not hesitate to claim that
1t is expressing a; true religious in.
stinct and the old-time idea that the
social Instincts should be starved
while the spiritual nature was over
fed with solid theological food, is fast
giving way to a, broader. interpreta-
ton of the functions Of true religion.
We take our place In the succession
Of those who have sought to make the
world a fit habitation for the children
Of man when we seek to study and
understand the social duty Of the
rural church. The true christian re.
ligion is essentially social-its tenets
Of faith being love and brotherhood
and fellowship. While following after
righteousness, the church must chal-
lenge and seek to reform that social
order in which moral life is ex-
pressed. While cherishing ideals Of
service, the rural church which 1t.
tains the fullest measure of success
Is that which enriches as many lives
as it can touch, and in no way can
the church come in, as close contact
with its members as through the
avenue of social functions.
The country town and the rural
community need a social center. The
church need cfer no. apology for its
ambition to fill this need in the com.
munity, If an understanding Of its
mission brings this purpose into clear
consciousness. The structure of q
rural community is exceedingly com
pick; it contains many social groups,
each Of which has its own center, but
there are many localities which have
but n church and although such
a church cannot command the inter
est of all the people. it is relieved
from the embarrassment of religiously
divided communities.

Social Needs Imperative.

The average country boy and girl
have very little opportunity for real
enjoyment, and have, as a rule, a
vague conception of the meaning Of
pleasure and recreation. 1t is to fill
this void in the lives Of country youth
that the rural church has risen to
the necessity of providing entertain.
ment, as we'll as instruction, to tts
membership among the young. The
children and young people Of the
church should meet when religion is
not even mentioned. It has been
found safest for them to meet fire..
quently under the direction and care
Of the church. To send them into the
world with no social training exposes
them to grave perils and to try to
keep them out of the world with no
social privileges is sheer folly. There
Is a social nature to both old and
young, but the social requirements of
the young are imperative. The church
must provide directly or indirectly
some modern equivalent for the husk-
ing bee, the quilting bee and the sing
ing schools of the old days. In one
way or another the social instincts
of our young people must have oppor.
tunity for expression, which may
take the form of clubs, parties, pic
MICS or other forms OF. amusement.
One thing is certain, and that is that
the church cannot take away the
dance, the card party and the theatre
unless 1t can offer in its place a sat
isfying substitute in the form Of more
pleasing, recreation.
