arms, the dogs wet nose pressed
against the pane. while the child's
tears flowed silently down her cheeks
and on to Fluffy's curly head.
For Fluffy was to be sent away into
the country. Ada, who was mother

Aunt Pauline, but the aunt did not like
dogs and decided to send the pet out

heart.

So Ada went out and Fluffy lay

her pink nose in her shaggy hair.

"Inventories must be valued at (a)
Cost or (b) Cost or Market, as de-
fined in Article 1884 as amended,
whichever is lower (See Article 1885
for inventories by dealers in securi-
ties.) Whichever basis is adopted

IS SURPRISEDON
BIRTHDAY NIGHT

Ii is passing strange how keen a
sense of perception certain people
have. Some member of the Faculty
Danes Club discovered rather late
Thursdays that Mrs. C. E. Allen, wife
of the president, was celebrating her
birthday without letting her friends
know much about this important
event. A call "to the colors" was i'm
mediately sounded and the response
was immediate. The DANES and their
husbands gathered at the Allen home
about eight-thirty o'clock without
making formal announcement OF their
Intentions Of course the one in
whose honor they met was quite taken
by surprise but soon gained her usual
somposure. The evening was passed
IN a fine social way and from the
kitchen recesses the ladies "dished
up" appetizing refreshments. DR.. S:
A. Zimmerman and wife, also Mr.. and
Mrs. E. w. Simpson, were members
of the group who helped to make the
evening pleasant one for Mrs. Allen.
A fine birthday cake was one OF the
good things which was passed about
70 each visitor. Mrs. Allen was con-
graduated in various ways by her self
invited guests.

To the nation and the future world,
good fatherhood means everything. 1t
means that men shall henceforth think
not merely in terms Of "big business"
but of better human lives, that they
shall strive not only to bequeath
wealth to their children after death,
but shall devote their lives to giving
their children a treasure of sympathy.
love and guidance. 1t means that
through mutual understanding, faith
ers shall be more progressive and sons
less anarchistic,-that the two genera
tions shall work hand in hand for a
finer future world.
Therefore would say to every
father, "Know your boy. Begin today
to play with him, hike with him, dis
cuss with him, camp out with him if
you possibly can. He needs you and
you certainly need him. Don't let his
mother have all the responsibility and
all the joy of parenthood,-get some
of that joy yourself, For your boys
sake, for your own sake, for your
country's sake, join the Ancient and
Honorable Order Of Fatherhood!'

ON
HIS EXPERIENCES

To be a prisoner of the Car Of ST.
IBERIA, and later of the Bolshevists in
Russia Proper is the awful experience
of the Reverend John Alexander Frey,
a Baptist minister and native of the
new republic of Latvia, who recently
arrived in this country.
January 18th, under the direction of
the American Baptist Home Mission
Society. He is man of some fifty
odd years of age, who, in spite Of his
peaceful profession, has lived life
of such adventure as few men exper-
fence and only strong men survive.
For two years he followed the for
tunes Of the Russian. In 1916 trouble
broke out between the established
Greek church and the Protestant
churches, which were supposed to be
working to the detriment of the coun-
try's fortune. And now Mr.. Frey
found himself under arrest and en-
route to exile in Siberia. He remain
ed here until the revolution freed him
in 1917. Then such was the condition
of his own country that he could not
go home. He remained awhile in ST.
IBERIA, and on coming tinto Russia
somewhat later, was again flung into
prison, this time by the Bolshevists.
His experience as prisoner at the
hand of the Gar, and later at those
of the communists, Mr.. Frey will re-
late in a series of lectures which he
proposes to give in this country. His
talks promise to be among the most
enlightening as we'll as interesting:
that have yet been delivered on the
Russian problem, which is at present
perplexing so many statesmen.

RELATIONS BETWEEN
FATHERS AND SONS

(By Charles F. Powlison, General
Secretary of the National Child Wei
fare Association.) j.
The four-year-ol son of friend OF
mine was once asked what he intended
to be when he grew up. He was silent
for a moment. Then looking up with
GREAT earnestness, he said, "Well, l
fnk when I'm growed up, III hunt
around and pick up lot OF thtlcks
and build house wiz 'em, ana De
farver.' u..,-
OF course the little would-be faith
ere was greeted with peals OF adult
laughter. Yet what finer or more ma,
tural ambition could he have voiced!
We do not laugh when our little
daughter talks Of the day when she
will have a home and children. why
does it strike US as comic that our
small boy should also long for father
hood?
One would also suppose that there
was something shameful and unmaniy
about fatherhood, so thoroughly 90
we discourage the fatherly spirit IN
our boys. The tiny lad who loves to
take his battered old doll to bed with
him is leased and shamed out OF ms
allegiance. The youngster OF eight
or ten who likes to play "house" IS
frowned upon,-he ought to prefer
building a fort and playing at SOL
diers. We are far more afraid of MAX
inc. our bow SISSY" than of permit
ting him to be bully. Yet, if we
study the grown men about US, we
find that the SISSY" is pretty rare
specimen, while the coarse-gralned,
selfish, callous bully is all too fire.
ouent. There is no great danger OF
our bows developing into towards.
There is the greatest danger OF their
growing into business men and mon,
ey-makers rather than fathers and
homer makers.
Perhaps the words greatest dan
ger" may seem exaggerated, but Jet
us consider what the right sort of
fatherhood means to men, to boys and
to the nation.
To a man himself, being good
father.-a wise father and an under
standing one,-means the greatest
nossible happiness and satisfaction.
f. means that he can watch the mir
acle of an unfolding personality, that
he can renew his own youth IN his
children. and that he can be CO.
worker with God in aiding, guiding
and inspiring them:
To child, good father: is next to
good mother, the best of all herit-
ages. His father is his playmate, his
chum, his ideal. His fathers polltl;,
cal opinions, business principles, and
ethical standards are accepted un-
ouestioningly by his admirin,g son.
Someone has wisely said that through
loving and admiring the father whom
he has seen, the child takes his flrst
step toward worship Of the Father
whom he has not seen.
