Just Folks
By EDGAR A. GUEST
THE OLD DAYS.

Time was that life was partly play and
man could rest a little while,
Could find the time along the way to
visit with his friends and smile.
And he could go on fishing trips and
never miss the coin he'd lose
But that was in the days before his
wife wore fifteen-dollar shoes.
Time WAS the evening brought repose
unto the weary soul of man.
He dropped his work at close of day.
untroubled till the next began,
And he could play an hour or two; the
books he loved he could peruse;
But thar was in the days before his
wife wore f,fteen-dollar shoes.
Great riches were not needed then, In
those glad days of long ago;
man could find contentment then
with what was gwen him to know.
And there were joys on every hand
from which his soul could pick and
choose;
But that was In the days before his
wife wore fifteen-dollar shoes.
There is no rest for man today. he's
forced to serve the gods of gold
He dare not llnger by the way, as once
he did in times of old.
He must forego his fishing trip and
shun all things that may amuse
Because the women folks today are
wearing fifteen-dollar shoes.

besides a man of letters and some

!. David's Righteous and Impartial
Reign (S:15l.
When he was established as king
over all Israel, he executed Judgment
and justice unto all his people, In
this respect he stands as type of
the Lord Jesus Christ; for when Dav-
Ids greater son. the Lord Jesus, shall
reign over. all Israel, Righteousness
and justice win prevail in all the
earth.
H.. oavid's Inquiry for Some of
saui's House to Whom He Might
Show Kindness 90: 1-3).
This story of faithful love to dead
friend is quite refreshing. David ex-
perlenced great grief when he received
the news that Jonathan had fallen in
battle. Now when he is made king
and success has crowned his efforts
in the subjugation of his enemies, he
sets himself to make inquiry as to
whether there is any one left of Saul's
family to whom he might show kind
ness for Jonathan's sake. When
Mephlbosheth Jonathan's son. was
found, David ordered him to he
brought to him and restored to him
his grandfathers estate. Being I'M
able to cultivate It on account of in
trinity. he arranged that Ii he cult
waited for him. Not content with this,
he ordered that Mephlbosheth should
eat at his own table as one of his
sons. This example of Davld's nobll-
ity teaches us That those who are
blessed and prospered should stop to
inquire as to whether there are not
some deserving ones whom they can
help. II may be that children of
some old friends who rendered us help
In former days need care and help.
Then, too, some faithful servant of
God could be cheered along life's way.
This should not be simply done as an
net Of charity, but in recognition of
some lasting obligation In view of

Republican leaders Of Congress are
to stop the filibuster against

Republican leaders of Congress are
powerless to stop the filibuster against
the emergency tariff bill, and if other
important legislation is not to be cast
aside the tariff bill must be lulled TO
sleep in some manner.
A Democratic motion to send the
measure to the commerce committee
instead of the finance committee was
laid on the table by vote of 33 to II.
Acting Chairman McCumber of the
finance committee opposed efforts of
the Democrats to have the bill referred
to some other committee, but he told
the senate that he would oppose the
measure in its present form. Other
Republican leaders defended sections
of the bill, while Senator Hitchcock
Of Nebraska, the acting Democratic
leader, and otheryD
oppose it.
Senator Harrisn. Democrat, Mississ-
sippi, denounced Republican senator's
for attempting to hasten passage of
what he declared was the "most iniqui-
tous piece Of Legislation the country
had ever seen."
II don't understand how you can
stomach it-you high protectiontists, =
he shouted, pointing Ut the Republicans
who, he declared, were drunk with
political success" He asked II any stat
esman could blame Canada il she re-
taliated on US for placing this duty on
her wheat
"What say you senators Of New
England whose factories have grown
rich manufacturing materials for Cam
adian export" he demanded.
Declaring the bill was "a sop" that
would not assist the farmer, he said,
the ~high protectionists" Of the east
would reap the benifit and the farmers
would be 'sleft in the cold"
Senator McCumber then moved to
refer the measure to the finance COM
mittee and the motion was adopted
unanimously.
