But he did find plenty of hunters with

they were everywhere in the Green

one of them must have succeeded in
killing Lightfoot the Deer.
Sammy knew all of Lightfoots hid

them. Lightfoot wasn't to be found,
and no one whom Sammy met had
seen Lightfoot for two days.
Sammy felt badly. You see. he was
very fond of Lightfoot. You RENE M
Der it was Sammy who warned Light
foot of the coming of the hunter on
the morning when the dreadful hunt
ing season began. Ever since the
hunting season had opened Sammy
had done his best to make trouble for
the hunters. Whenever he had found
one of them he had screamed at the
top of his voice to warn every one
within hearing just where that hunt
er was. Once a hunter had lost his
temper and shot at Sammy, but Sam
my had suspected that something of
the kind might happen and he had
taken care to keep just out of reach.

tell. he doesn't worry about himself
very often. You see. Sammy is smart
and he knows he is smart. Under that

BROWN is A POPULAR COLOR.

it. That is perhaps why it has been
So many years since brown was in
favor. as it is now.
There was so little chance of gain
ing variety with it. 1t was hard to
brighten up the brown suit or frocl<
so very few things went well with
it.
But brown actually has achieved a
vogue for itself at last and may it
not be the fact that the metals are
high in esteem that had something to
do with it? For brown has a true
affinity with gold. Gold looks well
with almost any color but yellow.
But with no color. does it appear bet
ter than with brown. Whether or
not the vogue for metal had anything
to do with the coming of brown,
surely brown is finding admirers who
would pass plain brown by without a
notice but who lose their hearts to
brown and gold.

other season it appears with various

Ford Profits up rs Millions.

Profits exceeding 80 million

pears to be shown by the state
ment of the Ford Motor Compa-
ny, which shows a surplus of
225ls million dollars, compared
with l75h millions the proceed

ny's assets are 1870 million dol
lars more than "a year ago and
l67 million more than two years
ago, totalling 3333 3333 million dollars.
This increase is said to be partly
due to the buying up Of minority
stock by the tords. Twelve thou
sand, five hundred dollars ashare
for stock at 500 par value is re-
ported to have been paid for these
minority shares in order that
the Fords might obtain control
of the company. The company's

Gathering Corn.

Gathering corn is now the or
der of the day; it is quite a SER
ious work, not at all like play.
The men are in the field as soon
as it is light, determined to do
Il good days work before the
coming of the night. The farm
er has no union demanding shor-
ter hours and higher pay; he has
brains enough to know, he can
not bring good times that way;
so when the kitchen clock strikes
the hour of four, the farmer from
his bed jumps out on the floor, he
swiftly dons his regimentals and
sallies out to fight the high cost
of living till the coming of the
night.
AS the farmer in the cornfeld
swiftly handles the big, yellow,
golden ears, his mind, in men,
ory, travels back DER the history
Of the years; he knows that once
upon d time when Canaan need
ed bread, old Jacob sent his sons
to Egypt, that his people might
b. fed. 1t seems that old Pha-
roah had u Hoover in his day; he
was Jacobs favoritc son that had
been sold and carried away; but
when Joseph grew to manhood,
he was so wise and good that
Pharoah made him governor and
controller of the food. During
the seven fat years of plenty he
stored his bins with corn and in
other ways made ready for the
years of stress and storm; so he
was prepared and ready when
his brothers came to him, to help
them in their trouble and feed all
his hungry kin.
Now is it not too bad that our
own Uncle Sam had not had Sc
wise counselor, such a great,
prophetic man, who could have
foreseen the future when pros
porous times were rife, made
ready for the coming days of fa-
mine, war and strife. Then oul
granaries would be bursting now
with corn and rye and wheat,
and we could say to all the world
look unto us and eat; then We
would have been prepared and
ready from our plenty's lavish
horn to send to all the nations
abundance of our corn. Indian

TO become divine is the aim of
life; then only can truth be said
to be ours beyond the possibility
of loss, because it is no longer
outside us, nor even in us, butwe
are it, and it is we; we ourselves
are truth, a will, a work ofGod.
