''To trust in God" means nothing
more than to trust in your own ca
liabilities and powers of your own
soul, but the capitalist press likes to
make us think that we should trust
in them or somebody outside Of our

pockets to keep US in our ignorant,
submissive and feeble state Of mind.
Why should we fear God or our
selves? If we can control ourselves
and manage our mental faculties
rightly we will have no occasion to
fear Him or anybody else. So say,

WHY A SLATE PENCIL WON'T
WRITE ON PAPER.-Why can't I
write on paper with a slate pencil?-
A. L. 3,
The pencil which writes so easily
on your slate makes no mark on pa
per because the surface Of the paper
is too smooth and soft to cause fric-
ton when the pencil is pressed upos
it.
When you press the slate pencil on
your slate, however, the surface is so
hard-and it's rather rough, too,
there is friction and this friction rubs
some of the slate from the tip Of the
pencil and so makes a mark-that is,
it writes. But some surfaces are too
hard and smooth for even a slate pen
Gil to mark. Glass, for instance, is SO
smooth that no slate rubs off the pen

Gently in telling Dora" that a fly
cannot hear a thing, you added that
he can see in a great many more di-
rections than we can, and that's why
he lodges his pUrsuers SO success
fully.
AS a matter of fact, his compound
eyes enable him to see much farther
around than we can, but he can't
see nearly so well as we can.
To prove it, try to hit him with one
finger or to place your whole hand
upon him Something dark and
threatening, he sees and avoids it.
But bring the hand down slowly, and,
just as he takes alarm, extend the
fore or middle finger, dropping it
upon him. He cannot see clearly one
finger against the background of the
hand, and usually you get him.
