Eat Horse Meat,

Horace Hoskins of the New York
university state veterinarian college.
That is the suggestion of Herbert c..
Hoover and his army of frugal
housewives. Dean Hoskins says
more wholesome than beef He says
it tastes quite like beef. And Dean
Hoskins knows what he is talking
about from a practical as well as an
academic standpoint. He and his
father eat horse meat at home.

There is no reason why horses

II Need Thee Every Hour"

The author of II Need Thee Every
Hour" is dead. Mrs. Annie S. Hawk
es passed away last week at the age
Of SO years. She wrote the famous
hymn long, long ago, and It was b ut
composed. Still, had her more than
forr-score years of life shown no
other service for humanity than the
giving to the world of that one
sweetly simple psalm of faith in Di-
vine love, her life would have richly
blessed the earth by the single act
For the song has sung it's comfort
into the hearts Of millions OF people
Hour" is known, it has happiness
and as the modest little gospel lyric
is in the hymnals of every Christian
society in the world, it is not toe
much to say that its influence ex-
tends around the globe. 1t is mar
Vicious power, too-that influence
1t lifts the human soul to plane
disappointment and pain become
easier, simply because the loftiness
of the thought of the hymn makes
the sordid experiences of life seem
less important in comparison with
the great truths which the fait'' and
inspiration of the lines breathe.
Il need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford
Where is the human heart which
has not felt the desire for a sustain
ing presence which earthly factors
could not provide? How that need
is made to vibrate again by those
trustful words. And the next stan
"a is further ILLUMINATING of mans
common experiences, and just as
sweet and Strengthening in the con-
fidence it offers:
81 need Thee every hour
Stay Thou near by!
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art night!
speak the message of this song.
There are poetsSand they are. fam
Gus, too-who seem to ransack the
lexicons of language for new terms
in which to express their thoughts;
Not thus did the writer OF Il Need
Thee Every Hour pour out her
faith in the ability. of her God to
sustain her through whatever test
the day might bring A child can
understand the sentiment of this ut
terance:
In joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide
Or life is vain.
II need Thee every hour
Teach me Thy will,
And Thy, rich promises
In me fulfill"
The voice of the singer is stilled
forever. No more will the faith she
revealed in that beautious hymn be
required by her The song, how
ever, lives on-the tendrills of the
trust it teaches deep-rooted in the
hearts of millions of humanity The
truth it speaks can never die, but
more enduringly than the tender
lines. even, that truth will find its
place forever in the soul which has
longing for helm and comfort and
peace.-St. Joe Gazette.
