FINGERS
BY George Matthew Adams

FINGERS
Our lives are filled with cropping We
reach for the things we desire-our
fingers leading. Silently, and much
alone. do we move toward our
Gestinies.
And, in it all. how strangely do our
fingers influence and play their part!
The mother presses her babe to her
breast with her fingers, and noiselessly
steals her way into its chamber in the
dead of the night to tuck the soft
coverings back in their place-with her
fingers.
Fingers! How can we forget their
touch-tho ever so slight-so long as
we remember that love came thru them
last.
Let me but touch the hem Of His
garment" said the afflicted woman
who sought out Jesus, "and shall be
made whole"
Fingers tell so much. And they can
Go so much.
I delight in keeping about me the
simple gifts of love that have come to
me from time to time. I often pause
from my book or typewriter and look
at them and say to Their
fingers picked these out and hallowed
them for me-"
How many times the sympathetic
press of beautiful fingers changed a
whole day and made life itself very
wonderful.
Feeling fingers are finest, for they
carry only heart messages.
The most fascinating thing about
Earp playing is the run of the fingers
across the strings. l am always
thrilled by it.
But the greatest fingers are those
that work-and those that, by their
touch, tell you that you have won when
you fear that you have failed.

Individual Responsibility

growing tendency in this country to ex-
pect society to look after our welfare is fraught
with considerable danger to ourselves and to the
nation as while. Most of us have begun to de-
pend upon laws and statutes to solve problems
and to regulate our lives in a greater or less
degree.
The development of this spirit may lead us
into bad ways. The old German empire believed
it's citizens unable to think and act for
themselves, it set out to regulate the course
of their lives in every phase, destroying initia-
