Real MEANING of Psychology.

Psychology is a word often used to
explain the meaning of something
which we don't understand after it has
been explained, and which If we did
understand it, would not do is any
good. The psychology of advertising
means that someon who hasn't the
ability to succeed at it tries to reduce
to a mental formula the method of
those who do succeed at it. Psychol-
ogy. in short, like the policeman after
the fight, comes around after the thing
is done, swings its club and looks wise.
The psychology of Shakespeare is
the guess of someone with a college
degree as to what Shakespeare was
thinking about when he wrote his
plays, always completely ignoring the
fact that the only things Shakespeare
was thinking about were the box re-
ceipts and how to keep his audience
interested. The principal difference
between psychology and ~astrology is
that astrology tells you what is not so
beforehand and psychology does it af-
terward.
A psychology by any other name
would know as little.

lined a cat. Then they all laughed
as he put a bird on each of its ears.
There was one evenly frosted pane
that presented a fine surface for artis-
tic effort. Blair began to outline a
human face, 1t was clearly silhouet-
ted. He seemed to forget his mission
of entertainment, and a certain sad
ness crept into his face as he pro-
ceeded with his task.
why, oh, Mr.. Blair" spoke the
eldest girl of the family, that is just
the way our school teacher wears her
hair"
why, yes, it looks like her in the
face, too" supplemented her brother.
Old Mrs. Warrington glanced keen
ly at the face of her good Samaritan.
She noted a tear in his eye.
1T is the picture of his lost wife!"
murmured the sorrowful old lady
sympathizingly to herself.
Rufus Blair had told her his heart
story in a burst of confidence. He had
married five years previously. He
was making none her freely as a
newspaper artist. But reckless ways
and a rapid crowd of worthless hang
ers-on had led him to dissipation.
Day by day he neglected his wife.
One night when intoxicated he had
quarreled with her. For a time she
endured his indifference. One day
she disappeared, leaving a note tell
ing him that she would try to forget
him, for surely he no longer loved
her.
For three years he tasted the dregs
of dissipation. Then he reformed. He
sought his wife. He could find no
trace of her. He had taken up anew
now the earnest burden of life. In
cidentally he had come across the
Warringtons. His soul longed for COM
partnership and the presence of the
dear little children was a boon to him.
Come. children finally spoke Mrs.
Warrington. lit is time for school"

replied Rufus Blair cheeringly. I've
ordered a ton of coal and something
to fill up these little empty ones"
1T is too much to expect from you,

old lady, tears in her patient faded
eyes.

and signed it with the name of Mrs.
Warrington.
You are still thinking of-her?"
spoke Mrs. Warrington, as the chill
dren departed for school and the 9TH
ers quoted down.
Always and ever" replied Blair
sorrowfully.
"Oh. If your lost wife could only see
you now!" exclaimed the old lady. IF
she could only know her faithful re-
claimed husband"
Blair shook his head sadly and went
away to the business tasks of the day.
ooh, Mr.. Blairl" cried Nella as he
returned that evening, 81 have such a
strange story to tell you"
"Indeed?' responded Blair smiling
ly as he stroked the fair golden hair
Of his little favorite.
Yes, it's about Miss Foster"
The school teacher?'
Yes, sir. When ] handed her the
excuse you wrote, she gave a great
big start and turned pale"

wonderingly.

went on the rapid narration. she
began to ask me all about our home.
Then she asked me who wrote the
excuse
And what did you say?" asked
Blair, getting interested. but as yet
completely mystifed.
II told her you did. Then she
asked your name, and I told her that,
too. oh, Mr.. Blair! you should have
seen her. She began to tremble.
Then her eyes closed, for she tainted
right straight away. ! screamed, and
some other teachers ran in and car
ried her into the Office room where
there is a s~ettee.'
Blair had become pale. He drew up
rigid. As a man In a dream he stood
staring straight before him.
The invalid had come to her feet.
She slowly hobbled to his side. She
whispered quiveringly in his ear:
May this mean happiness for all
you have done for u.s."
And, OH" added little Nella, II
couldn't help thinking all day long
how much Miss Foster LOOKS like the
picture of the lady you drew on the
window pane this morning"
Mrs. Warrington was putting on her
HOOD and shawl. She touched the arm
of Blair.
Mr.. Blair, will you stay here and
look after the children while I visit
a neighbor for a little while?" she
asked.
He did not speak, he only nodded
his assent. He sank to a chair
thinking, dreaming, hoping!
The little ones seemed to recog-
nize a new mood. They must not dis
turb. They amused themselves quiet
ly in one corner of the room, while
Blair sat, his face buried in his hands,
not noting the lapse of time.
1t was two hours later when Mrs.
Warrington returned. Her face was
wreathed with a strange excitement.
She touched his arm tremblingly.
Mr.. Blair" she said in tones quav-
ering with emotion, Il have been to a
neighbor's whom I sent for Miss Fos-
ter. l have been telling her of your
brave %repentant life and"
"She cannot forgivel" faltered Blair
abjectly.
"She has not only forgiven you, but
she still loves you. Come"
II was like the m of some
guiding angel. Mrs. Warrington led
Rufus Blair to the little home next
door. into its best room and closed
the door as she retired.
A woman advanced toward him
with radiant face and outstretched
arms-she of the frosted window
pane, his lost wife.

SACRIFICIAL OFFERING

In this weeks LEAVES OF HEALING you
will find ful-page announcement of the All-Night
Meeting to be held, God willing in Shiloh Taber-
nacle, Zion City, beginning at 7:45 p. M, Friday,
December 3lst.
In calling the attention of the Officers Mem
bers and Friends of Zion to the
SACRIFICIAL OFFERING
which is to be taken during the AlLNight Meeting,
we wish to remind one and all very forcibly that.
the General Overseer, we have taken the lead
and carried many heavy burdens in financing mat
tiers of vital importance to all Zion-among other
things the great fight to maintain the restrictions in
the Leases.
The time has now come when all Officers, Mem
bers, and Friends of Zion should begin to plan
systematically to do something substantial in the
SACRIFICIAL OFFERING, SO that one and all,
and all together may help bear these burdens.
The next SACRIFICIAL OFFERING should
be by far the largest ever taken in the history of
Zion, and will be, if all, the moment they read this
notice, begin to PRAY, to PLAN, and to WORK.
We make this call with faith in God and in Zion
people, and we know we shall not be disappointed.
With Christian love, and earnestly praying that
God may lay this matter heavily upon your hearts,
and that you may be richly blessed and made a
blessing, am
Faithfully in Jesus Name,
