"A HARD LUCK COMBAT WITH A
HAPPY ENDING"

Hen-Say, Rooster! Tell me why
are we shut up in this six by eight
back yard: we've been here for over
a week and not a worm or sprig of
grass to eat?
Rooster-Old Lady, it's a hard
thing to explain all the various details
which brought about our downfall.
But the main cause was that the
Jonquils and all their blooming neigh
bors made complaint that we scratch
ed around them, and soiied their COS
tunes.
Hen-Well, they would look nicer
in flower pots anyway.
Rooster-And they say we would
look nicer in a boiling pot.
Hen-HoW long are we sentenced?
Rooster-For the rest of our natur-
al lives.
Hen-We'll never live that long, in
this place, without nothing to eat
but weak dishwater and potato peel
ings.
Rooster-Some of them say we
went in their gardens and mussed up
the lettuce, pray, and other vegeta-
bles.
Hen-Any fool chicken would do
that, where they leave cracks in the
fence big enough for a billy goat to
jump through. We sure didn't fly
over as our wings are clipped.
R~ooster-I'm gettin awful thin
can't you lay US an egg to eat?
Hen-Lay nuthin; / feel more like
cussin.
Rooster-If l die first please omit
flowers.
Hen-You bet; butts lets try again
to get out of this prison.
Rooster-Well, here's a crack my
head goes through.
Hen-Then we're same as out, your
heads the biggest thing about you
now slip through and I'll be at your
heels.

A Pastors Revere.

| wonder how many of my unfaith'
full members will be at church today
In my mind | can see all the faithful
ones coming in and taking their &C
customed places. How very glad
should be to have all the members al
church today!
| cannot see why parents do keep
their children away from church
when that is the very place they
should be. "Let the little one come
unto Me, and forbid them not, for
of such is the Kingdom of Heaven"
was one of Christ's answers to His
apostles. The apostles thought Je-
sus did not want to be annoyed by
little children. Perhaps some of the
children whom Jesus blessed were a
great rock in the building of the
Christian religion.
The same applies today. The child
of today must be our future leader
and if children are not brought up
in the church, who is to look out for
the church's welfare? Surely not the
ones who never attend church and
Sunday school, unless there are no
children to attend, and the children
have Christian parents who teach
them the Bible at home. A rare thing
nowadays!
Many people think: "Oh! children
never pay enough attention to what
the preacher says ever to get any
good from the sermons"
Perhaps you may think they don't.
But Just ask them a few times if they
can tell anything the pastor says, and
see if you are not wholly mistaken.
A little fellow of three goes with
his mother every Sunday to church to
hear his father preach. One day this
same boy said to his father, when l
get big I'll do the preaching and you
can sit and listen to me preaching"
Children who are early brought to
church, if they are kept away, miss
going just as much as the grown ups.
And Sunday does not seem like Sum
day with no services.
There / must have been dreaming
and saying all this over to myself.
But is it not the truth and nothing
but the truth?-Elm Wood in Chris
tian Observer.

Goodyear Rubber Tire Company Runs
Bus For Its Employees.

To offset inadequate street car SER
vice in Akron, o., which he earned
the name of being the fastest grow
ing city in the United States, The
GOODYEAR Tire & Rubber Company
will start operation of a 1O-car motor
bus service on June l.
Akron city officials will watch the
operation of this line closely with
the idea, should it be a gnancial suc-
cess, that it may be taken over, more
buses added and the foundation laid
for a municipally-owned Transporter
ton system by bus-one of the first
in the country.
City officials go so far as to sug-
gest that no more extensions be made
to the existing trolley system, but
motor bus lines be routed into all
outlying sections.
Establishment of the new line was
decided after a conference with city
officials in an effort to devise means
of affording adequate transportation
to the 100, 900 inhabitants who have
augmented the 10000 shown by the
1910 census.
For more than a year the Good
year mas Opcrdteu d JUS HHc
to serve 5000 families living in its
housing section, with excellent re-
suits. The success of this line has
attracted attention from every Sec
ton of the country and was the cause
for the proposed action by the city
of Akron.
Administration officials point out
that motor bus lines can easily tap
rapidly-growing suburbs without the
expenditure of large sums for fran
chises and equipment as would be
necessary for trolley extensions. Sub
urban development will not be delay
ed by waiting for the traction COM
pany to act.
The type of bus to be used in the
new Akron lines will be similar to the
one-man street car. Each bus viii
carry approximately twenty-four peo-
Pile who will pay as they enter. Buses
will be enclosed to give shelter from
the weather, but also be well venti-
lated at all time and heated in winter

Haven't Got Time.

Opportunity tapped at a door,
With a chance for the brother within;
He raped till his fingers were sore,
And muttered, "Come on, let me in!
Here is something / know you can do,
Here's a hill / know you can climb"
But the brother inside very quickly replied:
"Old fellow, / haven't got time"
Opportunity wanders along,
In search of a man who would rise.
He said to the indolent throng:
Here's a chance for the fellow who tries"
But each of them said with a smile,
II wish I could do it, but I'm very busy today.
Very busy today, and I'm sorry to say
That really / haven't got time"
At last Opportunity came
To a man who was burdened with cares,
And said Il now offer the same
Opportunity that has been theirs.
Here's a duty that ought to be done. @
@ It's a chance if you've got the time to take it."
Said the man with a grin, "Come along, pass it in!
I'll either find time or III make it," s.
Of all the excuses there are s4
By which this old world is accused,
This haven't got time" is by far
The poorest, the feeblest, the worst.
A delusion it is, and a snare;
If the habit is yours, you should shake it,
For if you want to do what is offered to you
You'll find time to do it or make it.

Bdptists Plan to
Hike Campaign to
500, 900, 900 Total


Nashville, Tenn, Feb. 2l-Plans
for increasing the returns from the
Baptist rs million campaign TO Sl00-
100000 by May / and raising S2O.-
100000 of this sum in cash by that
time have been announced by the
campaign headquarters in this city,
following the approval of the pro-
gram by representatives of the de-
nomination from every state in the
territory of the Southern Baptist
convention The subscriptions to
the campaign are already in excess
Of $90,OO0O00 and another drive viii
be made the last week in April to
reach those churches which were
not clnvassed during the fall, the
members of other church who did
not subscribe then. and the new
members who have come into the
churches since the original drive
was completed. Original subscribers
will be given an opportunity to in
crease their pledges if they desire
to do so.
Preceding this drive for complet-
ing the $1O0,OOO,00O fund there will
be waged in a majority Of the Bap-
fist churches of the south a special
campaign of soul-wnning, steward
ship and emphasis upon the funda-
mental christian doctrines, during
which it is expected the organized
forces of the churches will seek as
diligently for the accomplishment Of
these ends as they did for the sue
cess of the - million campaign.
March / has been set apart as a
day of special prayer in all the CO.
operating churches for the success
of The soul-winning campaign and
the other purposes that will be
sought during the spring months. In
many of the rural districts and
smaller churches elsewhere the cam
paign Of evangelism will not be wag-
ed until the summer and fall. as
.hese seasons are more adaptable
to this form of special effort, and
the division of time as between the
cities and the rural districts will
enable the denomination to avail it
self of all its preacher talent by us
ing the same speakers in both the
cities and tae rural districts.
AS far as possible, city-wide cam
pligns will be organized for this sre-
cial soul winning effort, with all
Baptist churches cooperating stimuli
taneously, and many of the church
es. cities and associations and states
will set up definite goals in the
number of new converts they will
seek to attain during the months of
March and April.
Southern Baptist forces believe
they can carry forward their work
more efficiently and economically
along the lines through which they
have operated heretofore than
through alliances with other demon
nations and have gone On record
as preferring to continue their gen
eral program of missions, education
and benevolence through their own
agennies rather than to merge their
efforts with others.

CHOOSING THE UNPOPULAR.

A very good looking young woman the other day went into the millinery department of big shop in search of 'an everyday hat. She tried on a good many, but found nothing which she liked sufficiently to buy.
 Finally the young woman started to walk about the room in search of something becoming. She stopped be- fore an oddly shaped sailor hat of black, untrimmed. It was one of sev- ] eral and it was marked a low price. She tried it on The lines of the hat were good and it brought out the best lines of the young womans face and figure.
 "Tll take it. she said to the sales woman; T like it."
 ] Tt is becoming" admitted the sales woman, but why don't you get some thing really nobbly? To tell you the honest truth. those hats haven't gone at all well. We got in a good supply the first of the season and they're still hanging on. We have only sold a few ''
 That's just why I want it." said the young woman, because it is different from the others and I'll not be likely to see a soul with one anywhere near like lit. It is becoming and I am satisfied with it."
 ! And the young woman bought it., proud to have something that was not ] too popular.

HOMEMADE EMERGENCY CASES.

The first aid cases which are sold in the shops are wonderfully compac. in equipment and form and they are not very expensive, A home-m made case which contains the things most neces- sary for first aid assistance can be made at small cost and should be < part of every households equipment. Carried on automobile, train or camp.i ing trip it may save many painful moments. ta#A4f
 A tin box Is best for holding the first aid equipment. If a hinged box such as certain brands of crackers come in is at hand, so much the better.
 No matter how small the box it should contain some antiseptic gauge carefully protected from dust and coll- tact with other substances. It can be packed in the wrapping in which it is bought or in a sheet of waxed paper. There should also be small package of absorbent cotton, likewise carefully wrapped. A pair of small, sharp scis- sors for cutting the gauge should be with it. A small roll of sticking plas- ter to hold temporary bandages in place completes this part of the outfit.
 There should be a bottle of some antiseptic like peroxide of hydrogen. These should of course be carefully, corked. There are sold small rubber cork protectors-a ring of rubber to go about the mouth of the bottle and band of rubber which spans the cork flor few cents apiece, and these could be used to keep the shoppers in the bottles. Peroxide loses some of it's strength after it is once opened, so it should be carried always in small quantities that can be frequently re- newed. Boracic acid. in powdered form, in small pasteboard box or en velope, which can be dissolved in water, is another efficacious antiseptic.
 A small jar of vaseline and bottle of spirits of ammonia or some other stimulant to use in case of faintness or shock should be added to the store. The vaseline is useful in case of cuts or burns or bruises. Boracic acid car also be used to cover the surface of the skin in case of burning, and if should be immediately applied to the bruise caused by an insect sting. Witch hazel and zinc ointment. which can both be used with good re- suits for sunburn, should also form part of the first aid box if it is not already crowded.
