'PL0W IS MOST ANCIENT TOOL
Has Been Used by Man Since He First
Attempted to Make the Earth
His Servant

Three very ancient implements have
been used in human industry-the
pillow, the sword and the pen. Of the
three, the oldest is the pillow. A his
tory of the development of this ag-
ricultural tool would take us back
through centuries to the. time when
man began to subdue the earth and
make it his servant. Thousands Of
plow models are now to be seen in the
patent office at Washington. These
tell us what has been done by invent
ors in recent years, but there is long
story back of these plows.
From his study of Babylon brick,
In the museum Of the University of
Pennsylvania, Doctor Clay concluded
that he had found a true picture Of
the first pillow, which was invented by
Abraham. dor his proof that Abra-
Doctor Clay refers us to the "Book Of
Jubilees," which was published in the
second century B. G. This book says
that the Babylonians were punished
because they had yielded to satan,
and that the form of their punishment
was that the ravens came and ate up
the grain they had sowed in the fields.
Abraham devised an instrument that
should SOW the seed in a furrow, in
order that it might be covered up so
that the birds of the aif could not eat
it. The apparatus shown on the an
Client brick is sort of combination
pillow, planter and harrow. 1t required
three men to operate it. When the
people sowed according to Abraham's
commands, they feared neither the ra-
vens nor the birds. Whatever the
value of the story in the Book of
Jubilees," the brick, at least, gives
picture of perhaps the most ancient
tool used by man.

Make Home Happy.

Happy, well-ordered homes are the
foundations of society, solid basis
ON which to build state. Home-mak-
Ing is something beyond and superior
to mere housekeeping. IT. is high
calling. 1t requires noble traits OF
character and fine executive ability
and real wisdom. The responsibility
Of the home-making does not devolve
on one alone. Every member OF the
family has his or her share. Friends
are dear, strangers have certain
claim on us, but the members of our
family are nearer and dearer. Give
of your love, your help, your sympathy
and comfort to your own family first
and most. Those with happy homes
are more able to give from the heart
to others In need. No one can tell
how far the influence of happy home
will go.
