cold Water Has odd use.

For years steam has been used for
thawing the frozen soil of mining
claims in Alaska, in spite of difficulties,
Now it has been discovered that cold
surface water, which of course is
warmer than the ground, is much
better thawing medium than either
steam or hot water, states Popular Me
chanics Magazine. This seeming par
adox is explained by the fact that the
superabundant heat units Of steam rise
rapidly around the pipe. and are vast
ed, while the few heat units carried
by the cold water remain in the ground
and do their work slowly but thor
oughly. In one test in the Nome dis
trict. pinch pipe was inserted in a
6-ineh drilled hole, and fed with 20
gallons of water a minute at tenn

to it.
"And he remembered his circus

visited, grown up Jay Rial arranged
that every child in every hospital or

no one could buy ticket but when
every seat was free. And yet, that
wasn't enough for Jay Rial. When
the hospitals and homes sent in their
lists of the numbers of children who
would be able to go to the circus the
lists grew so long that the place
wouldn't hold them all.

evening" said Daddy, ''of little boy
named Jay Rial.
"Jay Rial was as nice little boy as
anyone could ever hope to see. Every
one liked him and he liked people, too.
But the thing he loved above every
thing else in the world the circus.
"He loved the sound of the train
whistle which brought the circus to
town, and he loved the old circus
which used to travel by the road and
not come by the train at all. He loved
the circus band, the clowns the ami
mails. He loved the very tent itself.
the smell Of peanuts. the roars of the
lions, the beautiful ladies who rode the
beautiful horses.
"He loved the performers, and every
time he went to circus he wished his
eyes were bigger so he could see more,
and he wished that circus people didn't
have to go to sleep at all.
"He used to follow the circus parade
as it came through the town and he
didn't mind if it was always late, for
he could go to the circus grounds with
some of the other boys and see them
unpack, and maybe he could sometimes
help little, too!
"Once he had been allowed to stand
in the middle of the sawdust-covered
ring when they We're fixing up the tent
That had been a great moment.
''There was only one thing about

Gods Permissive Will.

And now a thing happens which
should be marked we'll. The Lord ap-
parently reverses his orders and says:
eff the men come to call thee, rise up,
and go with them; hut yet the word
that 1 shall say unto thee, that shalt
thou do" Had the Interchangeable God
really changed his attitude in the mat
ter? To ask the question is to answer
it. No, we have illustrated here the
distinction between Gods directive
will, which had bidden him not to go,
and his permissive will, which allowed
him to have his own way. Doubtless

BaIaam's Great Mistake.


that he sent more princes, even more
honorable than the first. with prom
ises Of great honor for Balaam Il he
would only curse Israel. It was just
at this point that Balaam erred. The
will of God in the premises had al
ready been made clear, and the Sec
ond invitation from Balak should have
met with an instant No! Instead of
this, Balaam replied: "Now, there
fore, pray you, tarry We here this
night, that 1 may know what the Lord
will say unto me more What more
did he needi
1t is evident that Balaam did not
lack light, any more than we usually
lack it in matters of duty. 1t was be-
cause of base motives entering in, max
ing him unwilling to walk in the light
vouchsafed to him, that he sought from
God a reversal of the directions already
given. Avarice and ambition overpow-
cred him. His eye was on the re-
wards of divination in the hands of
Balak's princes, and his imagination
was kindled by the promise of great
honor at Balak's court.
Yet it is to be noted that even while
wavering as to his duty, he spoke great
swelling words of integrity: "If Balak
would give me his house full Of silver
and gold, I cannot go beyond the word
of the Lord my God, to do less OF
more" Yet he went forth to tease
God, if we may SO speak. for re
versal of his decree.

seems indistinct. Considering a duty
is often only explaining it away. De-
liberation is often only dishonest.
Gods guidance is plain when we are
true''
This principle is well illustrated in
the case of Balaam, who was di-
viner, dwelling on the Euphrates. and
having some knowledge of the true
God. When Israel was encamped in
the plains of Moab, on the way to
Canaan, Balak the king of the Moab
ties sent for Balaam to curse Israel,
offering him great rewards for his Gi-
vination.
When the princes of Moab came to
Balaam, he inquired Of Jehovah as to
what he should do. The answer of the
Lord was plain: 'Thou shalt not go
with them; thou shalt not curse the
people; for they ave blessed"

Special Assistant Nebeker In Trust

Of Justice Has No Quarrel
With Farmers Union.

Neutrality-suspicious. farmers CO.
operative organizations are exempt

the department of justice has given no
consideration to the campaign for the
Withholding Of crops from the markets
until prices advance, it was said by
Frank X. Nebeker, special assistant
to the attorney general in charge Of
antitrust prosecutions.
Mr.. Nebeker's explanation of the de-
partment's attitude followed the re-
cent statement of Charles S. Barrett,
president of the National Farmers
union, that lie understood that federal
agents were attempting to obtain evil
dence for prosecutions in Kansas,
Iowa and other middle western states.
May Seek Fair Profit.
The Clayton antitrust act, Mr..
Nebeker said, expressly provides that
agricultural organizations, not having
capital stock or conducted for profit,
cannot be construed as conspiracies in
restraint Of trade. Withholding Of
crops from markets for personal profit,
MIR. Nebeker asserted, probably would
not be held as organization profits.
Mr.. Nebeker also explained that the
limitations on the appropriation act
for the enforcement of the antitrust
law would seem to preclude action
against the farmers, inasmuch as the
act specifies that no part of the ap-
preparation shall be expended for the
prosecution of farmers who cooperate
to obtain fair and reasonable price
for their products.
Unfair Price Not Legal.
The construction as to what is a
fair price for the various farm prod
ucts, Mr.. Nebeker declared, would,
however, probably govern in any spe-
cific case that might arise, as 1t would
seem that since the present law for
bids prosecution where the effort is to
obtain fair price, conversely at
tempts to obtain unfair and unreason-
able prices would be contrary to the
law.
