GRANDMOTHER QUILT
BY LOIS RoBINETTE.

At the recent Kansas Free Fair
there was a quilt exhibited that a
grandmother had made.
The blocks were pieced together in
a perfect pattern. There was never
a seam that had a space that was
sighted, or a puckered or gathered
place. Thu stitches were as even and
short and set in as straight line as if
made by a mechanical Cevice. Each
thread making the seam was knotted
firmly at the beginning, and the end
was fastened with the greatest care,
so that by no chance would it fail to
hold.
AS we ponder over the quilt, mes
sage comes to US Of the work worn
a whisper of the homely humble life
in the simple but wellkept home.
While gazing at the separate pat
terms of red, blue, white, yellow
brown, gray, checkered, striped, and
figured, we find ourselves picking out
pieces of dresses that grandma wore
when she was young. This one con-
tanning the spray of forget-me-
is what she wore when grandpa came
a-wooing for her heart and hand;
this white of such fine material is
like what she wore as a bride; some
of these stronger pieces were woven
on a loom by grandmother's own
hands; here is one of a little pink
dress that grandmother used to cry
over, and she would fold her hands
over her heart and tremblingly say
Thy will be DONE
This is like the little long -sleeved
apron Mary wore her first day of
school: this polka-dot is like Johnnys
first shirt and how grandma smiled
when she thought of how proud he
was of this shirt, his new jeans, and
copper-toed boots; this buff is all the
scrap that was left from Aunt Eliza s
bonnet that she wore only on Sundays
and to funerals.
Every piece holds a memory of a

don't you share the sport?" he asked.
Il can not see, and, besides, have
nothing to throw" answered Hodur-
You can at least play at the game"
insisted Loki. "Thow this, in fashion
Of a spear"
He put the weapon fashioned from
the Mistletoe into Hodur's hand, and
turned Hodur's face toward the spot
where Baldur stood. Hodur threw,
and the point pierced the breast OF
the young god, stretching him lifeless
on the earth. BY the combined power
of all the gods, Baldur was restored to
life. They made the Mistletoe promise
never again to lend itself 10 harm,
and. to make sure that it kept its vow,
they dedicated to Freya and gave
her special authority over it. II
promised never to do harm to any SO
long it did not touch the earth.
And that is why, thousands of years
after, people who have never heard
of Baldur and Hodur and Loki, hang
the Mistletoe in their houses in the
season of gladness, and kiss one an
other as they pass beneath it. for 1t

Fifty years of service! For better
agriculture, better homes and better
citizenship. And the boards booth
enabled it to show how tremendously
important its activities have been in
Transforming these once unmeasured
wilds of the Louisianan Purchase into
the most profitable productive agri-
cultural domain in the world.
Secretary Mohler is generous in his
praise of his assistant, I. E. Davis,
who prepared the exhibit and who
had direct charge of it, and he gives
particular credit to Bruce Wilson of
Manhattan for his ingenuity in pre-
pairing the map of the composite
kansas farm which is one of the fea-
lures of the booth.

SCRIPTURE

Genesis. list Chapter, goth to S1st Verses.
And God said, let us make man in our
image after our likeness: and let them
have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl oe the air, and over
the cattle and over all the earth, and over
every creeping thing that creepeth upon
the earth.
So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God created he him, male
and female created he them.
And God blessed them, and God SAID
unto them, Be fruitful and multiply, and
replenish the earth, and subdueit, and have
dominion over the fish of the sea and over
the fowl of the air and over every living
thing that moveth upon the earth
And God said. Behold, have given you
every herb bearing seed, which is upon the
face of all the earth, and every tree, in the
which is the fruit of tree yielding seed !;
to you it shall be for meat.
And to every beast of the earth. and TO
every fowl of the air, and to. everything
that creepeth upon the earth wherein there
is life, l have given every green herb for
meat, and it was SO.
And God saw everything that he had
made. and behold, it was very good. And
the evening and the morning were the sixth

MISTLETOE.


Freya so loved her son Baldur that
Ashe asked all things of earth and
air to cherish him. But one plant she
overlooked, the Mistletoe. hardly seen
in the notch of a tree. even when its
berries whitened. This plant grew on
an aged oak, near Valhalla, and in
the shadow of the oak Baldur dared
the gods to harm him, offering him
self to their rough sport, standing
unmoved and unhurt, when they shot
their spears and arrows against him.
LoHi, Jealous of the favor and beauty
Of Ba!dur, disguised himself as a wo-
man and asked Freya why her son
never suffered pain. Freya told him
it was because the creatures and
things of the earth and air and water
had promised to be kind to him; there
fore nothing would bruise him or
cause his blood to flow.
And there is nothing that can touch
him ?" Loki asked.
Nothing" answered Freya, "ex-
cept the Mistletoe. But that is so
small and feeble it could hurt moth
ing"
Loki went back into the wood in his
own shape. plucked the stoutest sprig
of Mistletoe he could find, trimme ed
off its leave and berries. and sharp
ened its end to a point Soon after,
