MISUNDERSTANDING man. / listen
ed to hear what remarkable thing the
man so spoken Of had been doing,
and the farmer went on: "He is a
blacksmith and a good one. He can
fix anything that gets wrong from

For a minute was disappointed.
/ had thought from the farmers
speech to hear of something unusual.
Then / realized that he was exactly
right about it. The skilled black
smith, the skilled carpenter, the skill
ed workman of any kind is a valu-
able asset to the rural community.
Many farming neighborhoods suffer
for lack of such men. The man who
has the manual skill to do well any
kind of needed repair OF construction
work is a man for the community
to cherish and be proud of. The
country needs more really competent
blacksmiths, and wagon makers and
stone masons and carpenters and cab
met makers. The young man who
masters any of these trades has
useful future before him, and practic-
ally all farm boys need to learn to
do more with their hands.--Southern

A BABY's QUESTION

A mother sat by the little white
bed OF her tiny child, holding her
hand.
"Tell me about God, mother, ("
whispered the child.
"God is beauty, dear"
Are you God, mother? You are
beautiful"
mo, dear, I'm not God. | only
try to be like Him."
"Then l love Him, if He's like
you"
Happily the child drifted off to
sleep.
The mother sank to her knees be-
side the little bed.
ooh, Father" she breathed, "make
me worthy of this priceless gift
Thou hast bestowed upon me.
MAKE me pure, make me strong.
Help me to stand out against the
drift of all cruel, false, foolish Gus
toms that would rob me of this pre-
cious communion with my child,
ooh, God, make me beautiful"
And God smiled His benediction,
and the angels sang.

JOHN, OLD AND PROUD NAME

The name Of John is one Of our
best, also one of our Oldest. It is
found in nearly all languages, and no
matter how disguised, from Juan to
Johannes, it is almost certain to be
identified. The Johns have a mag
nificent family tree. It is instruct
i've to trace the genealogy.
There was An apostle named John,
and also John the Baptist. There
have been % popes and one anti-pope
by the name of John. Three kings
of Aragon and CASTLE, one at least of
Bohemia, numbers Of Portugal,
France and England have borne the
name of John.
There was John Sobieski, the
greatest of the Poles," There was
John surnamed Lakeland, who was
forced to sign the Magma Charta.
There was John the Good. Running
down the famous list we find also
John the Fortunate, John the Per-
feet, John the Fearless, John the
Constant. Was there ever an igno-
bic John?
Then there was jack of the Bean
Stalk fame; also Little John who
was not little, but who, on the con-
trary, was tall and strong, and who
was one of the most impudeat fol-
lowers of Robin Hood. I
If old King John gave England
the Magma Charta, John Hancock
helped to give US our Declaration of
Independence. If John of Poland dis
tinguished himself on old battlefields,
Sir John French bears up the name
today. If the historical and sym.
bolical Johns seem too numerous, we
might add John Rockefeller and John
Ccndon.
And how about John Doe?-In.

Ian ab0rigine is not the equal Of the
American Indian, and his weapons Of
wood and poorly fashioned stones
are effective only at short range;
but as a hunter the native Australian

He decoys pelicans by initiating
their cries, catches ducks by diving
