THE HIRED MAN

nered now. God knows and does
everything or else he would not be
all-powerful and all-wise. When a
child is born, God knows whether it
is finally going to heaven or to hell
If God knows this, then the childs
doom or reward is sealedbefore hand,
what did the child have to do with
it? God gives us our every thought
and we are neither to be blamed nor
rewarded for it. How about all
this? Answer: You and l do not
God is behind this answer of mine
| say. Then God has made one fool
to tackle another Keep very quiet
for it is God, according to what you
say. You are correct of course in
asking your question or according to
your idea God is also behind your
question. Let US still be brethren, for
God is behind us both and neither
of US can alter what we do mad say.
We just had to do. Ten thou
sand years since, according to your
question, God ordained that two fools
would live in 1916, one of them to
ask the second one a foolish ques
ton and the second one was going to
be going by the name of The Hired
Man and would answer in a way the
first fool did not approve. We have
both now in this connection done
the will of God and we couldn't
help it, but God may have ordained
that this first fool will still contend
that the second one is acting on his
own hook. Now let us not break over
ordination and go to telling more
bad stuff about the other fool, than
God, in the first place, ordained. This
child about which you speak, so |
have since heard. has not yet been
born. If God should ordain that an
irresistible force should encounter
an immovable body, then God would
have to provide a way for gathering
up the split pieces and filling up the
hole. am not going to hell If l
can help it, and l really hope you
don't go their neither. Ecclesiastes
7-2o says: God hath made man up
right, but they have sought out many
inventions.
SIS there any use in me, mans
wife, praying that God will help US
make a living on the farm as long
as husband sticks to the old alkali
land?" God will help you out if you
pray in earnest, but he may not do
in the way your husband thinks. He
may just see to it that the mortgage
gets the land and sets you free. God
can do more for you without that
kind of land than with it. Even God
must have chance.
won't you tell us your real name
Husband says one thing and | say
another" Answer: Yes, here is my
initials and last name. The next to
the last letter in the third line OF
the 80 verse of the eleventh chapter
of Daniel is the first. The first let.

chapter of First Peter is the next
and if you will cut the head off OF
the price you have to pay tor citi-
zenship you will have my family name
Now please don't go and tell every
body, for my writings are read by
some who would drop them instantei
if they knew it was little two by
four fellow doing them.
"If YOU were the father of wilfu
tot four years old, and had found tina
he was determined to rule or ruin
what would yo do" l would put or

If you found you could not make
a living on your farm because o
some defect in the land, would yol
list it with the real estate men wht
could dispose of it to another mai
provided nothing was said about tn
defect?" Never mind about what
would do, what you want to know !,
what would be right to do. Don
rob and steal if you can help it.
