The Country Home
BY MRS. w. III. FELTON,
MY Pilot Knows

"A
storrn-swept sea,
Great waves beat DER her side, as
. north wind blows;
Deep in the darkness hid lie threat
ming rocks and shoals;
But all of these, and more, my
Pilot knows.
Sometimes, when dark the night and
every light, gone out,
I wonder to what port my fra1l
ship goes;
Still, though the night be lohg, and
restless all my hours,
My Distant goal I'm sure my Pilot

To those who are confused by the
difference in religious creeds and the
partisanship of various large church
denominations; the lines here copied
bring a sense of relief and satisfac-
ton. a.. So
Tht Almighty Maker of heaven
and earth is recognized to be ON
nipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscl-
ent-+He is able to do all things.
He is always present, on land and
sea,
And He knows all things.
Having assented to His knowledge
and His power and His constant pres
ence, nothing more is needed than to
surrender the human will to the Di-
vine will (and remember, He doeth
all things well''), to complete the
story of a willing obedience and ac-
cept it's reward in comfort and res
ignation. When the apostle crled OUT
Lord, to whom shall we go InOIi
only hast the words of eternal NE!
it would seem that the restlessness
oicin Af 10
man beings are unwarranted ana
foolish. A creator who loves the
work of His hands and who pro-
nounced the work good, never IN
tended to bring helpless being into
existence for the end to be only pun
ishment.
And the Almighty Maker Of all
mankind, in whose hand are all the
issues of both life and death, and
who will take care Of the spirit when
it leaves the mortal flesh in the hour
and article of death, is certainly the
one to lean, upon and to trust ana 10
obey.
Why should one fret at it, or dodge
it, because death is as natural as
birth, and ltno man knows MS hour
for either. e~+.+.
We all understand these things: In
q word. if we can trust the Pilot we
can cease dreading the voyage.
If the night is dark and the storm
is fierce our unaided strength
amounts to but little. But the al
nowerful, the ever present and the
safe Pilot can take us quietly into
port. 10 +rorb1ad

Let not your mind be troubled
about the unseen or the unknown

LET RUSSIA ALONE. GOOD AD-
The ADMINISTRATION policy of al
lowing Russia to do her do and say
her say in these .after-War times,
sounds good to some of US who were
never much IN favor of having. the
United States mix up in the atfalrs
of foreign nations at any time or
place. 20
Gear Nicholas II, became an ally OF
the Great Britain, France and ltaly
compact There were a good many
billions advanced to that comolna-
ton or faction and there were
large number of American soldiers
dispatched to Siberia to aid in pre-
the car was" deposed under the
Kerensky regime. :,
Whether any Of those many mil
lions of borrowed money will ever be
returned by Russia to the United
States government is, of course, a
question which has many phrases in
the present situation, both for and
against. But whether it is returned
or lost by the risks and violent
changes now traaspiring in Russia,
it seems to. be the best promise or
appearance of things to let matters
over there alone, and if Russia can
get herself out Of the present tangle,
let her do it. 1t is understood that
American troops are still within
reach Of Poland to whom large guam
titles of guns and ammunition left
"over there" and not yet returned
have been sent to Poland by the
United States. If Poland is overcome
by Russia then the presence of such
military supplies, now in the hands
of Polish soldiers, will naturally be
considered as alligning the United
States with Poland.
Hon; Lloyd George says: Poland
was the aggressor." If so and we
have no reason to doubt the charge
against Poland, the American gov
eminent may Jose the friendship of
Russia, along with the cash loaned
to Russia through the car.
1t will be a long time before there
is any sort of permanent peace with
the smaller countries that lie ad-
