they gathered up the fragments-not
the scraps that the people left, but
the unused portion that Jesus had
provided-and there were twelve bas-
kets full. one for each of the disci-
pies for his next days meals.
The effect on the men was to make
them say. This is of a truth that

make Him king then and there.
1t was the greatest sign He had
ever given them. He had demon
provide for His people in the will
derness. and that like Elijah, He
could give an unending supply out of
little, so long as there was need. He
had shown them the Father, and that
He was not only from God, but that
He Himself was God.
The desire on the part of the peo-
pie to make Jesus king at that time
was no doubt shared by the disciples,
so Jesus constrained them to get
into the ship and cross to the other
side, while He went up into the noun
tain alone to pray. The temptation
to Him was so great that He had to
get apart with His Father again to
pray.
The disciples had rough trip. for
one of those sudden storms came up
which made rowing difficult Not a
moment did He lose sight of them,
however, for when the fourth watch
had come and they had not gone
more than six miles-about half the
d1stance-they were about all in, so
He came to their aid, walking on the
water He made as though he would
go by, for He wanted them to call
to Him for aid. They thought they
saw ghost, and were afraid-poor
fellows, I don't blame them, for they
were nearly worn out, and could not
think! But Jesus Gained their fears
by telling them who He was.
Peter, as usual, said, "If it be Thou,
bid me come to Thee" He did not
doubt it; he just wanted to show
the others that he believed it. It
was the same spirit in them that
made him say later, though all 9TH
ers forsake Thee, yet will I not for
Jesus did not invite Peter to come;
He simply permitted it.. alright,
come, if you want to-" And Peter
came, as long as he kept his eyes
on Jesus Then thinking of his sur
roundings he began to sink. Jesus
caught him, and with him got into
the boat-and the balance of the way
was easy rowing, 1t always is when
Jesus is along, What a wonderful
Savior He is! Ready at all times to

America went one better last July
when Mrs. Josephine Preston became
it's president. al.
Something of a tribute-this-
when one considers that this associa-
ton has twelve vice presidents Sc
lected from men like Charles w.
Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard
and others of similar calibre.
Cooperation is a STRONG point in
free schools and it is an indisput-
able fact that where you find the
greatest cooperation there are the
best results.
Private schools are not SO depend
emit upon this particular factor.
Then men on school boards bring
to bear their larger, experience Of
worldly matters, but, on the other
hand, the woman being in more di-
rect touch with child and teacher
and intuitively more deeply interest
ed in child welfare, gets an inside
view point, that is an important
supplement.
Therefore, it is not so much g
question of woman's ability to fill
such positions, as the need of best
results make it matter of wisdom.
