SOMETHING TO

By F. A. Walker

from the dancing leaves of the for
csts from songs Of birds and sigh
Ing winds, but our eyes are heavy
and our ears are dull
Right at our elbows Is a dust
covered volume filed with uplifting
encouragement and fatherly love,
intended for guidance to the very
happiness we desire.
But we let this great book lie In
n dark corner untouched while we
continue to stumble on and cry for
peace.
We refuse to open our eyes when
we ought to be wide awake; we de-
cline 10 close them when we ought
to be asleep; we are wllfully head
strong and insstent upon having our
own way.
We see not the good, but stroll and
strut with evil.
We are human; but within each
one of us there burns the spark OF
divinity, and not until this spark shall
be famed by our own hand into
flame, and kept burning by simple
prayer and faith shall our hunger be
fully satisfied.

NOT ON BREAD ALONE

TvlERE IS within all of us an
eyer-growing appetite which

for the soul.
A sumpiuous table heaped with
palatabe delcacies fails utterly to
satisfy this hunger.
With all our carnal gluttony we
find ourselves ut certain periods Of
our existence yearning for spiritual
food.
Wealth and luxury leave but an
emptiness; poverty and sorrow MS
tress and harden our hearts; the
world Is n cheat-a baublc that eludes
us and leaves us In yagueness.
We may be talebearers, liars and
thieves, but In our serious moments
there comes upon us an oyerwhelm-
Ing longing for something that Will
appease our appetite, besides bread
alone.
We wish for the sustennnce In
which Truth and Mercy are blended
that our souls may be satlated, and
our fever cooled. In ten thousand
delectable forms II Is spread out be-
for us, but we rebel against accept
ing II.
Though we may be starving and
weak to the point Of falling we re-
fuse to eat.
In our misery and WEAKNESS we
crave the everlasting Voice of Nature
to lull us to sweet repose, yet In
strange perverseness we fight to keep
awake.
From all around us comes the call
to the feast.

THANKSGIVING GOOD THINGS.

TT is a good plan to have as much
as possible of the preparation for
our feast day done the day before.
Some things are better done ahead OF
time. for example, cranberry jelly and
stuffing the turkey. A turkey which
is stuffed the day before 1t is roasted,
Is of much better flavor, as the seas
soning has chance to work into the
fowl. Mlnce and pumpkin pies may
be made early so that on Thanks
giving day only the less Important
things are left to be done.
Celery may be washed, wrapped In
a cloth and laid In cool place. Nuts
may be cracked. and many little things
which take time, can be attended TO
the day before.
A salad which will be enjoyed by
everyone may be all ready to serve.
The lettuce washed, drained and
placed in a cool, alright place to
keep crisp.
For the dressing, take two table
spoonfuls of chopped green pepper,
one tablespoonful of chopped red pep
per, one tablespoonful Of minced pars-
ley, one small Spanish onion chopped,
a teaspoonful Of powdered sugar, a
tablespoonful of salt, one-quarter OF
cupful OF vinegar and three-quar-
tiers Of cupful OF good olive oil, or
any sweet vegetable oil may be used,
but It will not have the delicious fla
vor Of the olive Shake all together
In a pint mason jar half.hour, at
intervals, then place in a cool place.
This dressing win keep for two weeks,
and Is called Sherry's dressing This
is especially good with tender head let
tuce or Chinese cabbage.
When making the pumpkin pie, lust
add a few drops Of lemon extract with
the ginger used In seasoning, and no
tice the improvement in flavor.
Cranberry frappe is delicious way
Of serving that berry. Strain the
cooked berries, using two cupfuls, a
cupful Of sugar and a pint Of water,
two tablespoonfuls Of lemon juice to
ret the color, and freeze as usual.

Common Errors in English and

error involved.
The subject (nomlnative) of the SEN

By DOUGLAS MALLocH
THE MASTER AVIATOR.

T SAW an aviator great.
i Without fear or care
The ether ocean navigate,
The master of the air.
With sudden speed he mounted high
In clouds afar to fade
The easy sailor Of the sky,
Aloat and unafraid.
And then he came returning, down
Within my visions ken,
Above the field, above the town,
Above the sea again.
With many a long and graceful sweep
He circled near and far,
A happy ship upon the deep
Blue heavens like star.
Yet there were men who did not see
The wonder In the blue,
Or look upon him languidly.
As mortals often do
so busy with their man-made things
They neither saw nor heard
The music Of his beating wings,
The beauty Of the bird.

THE FRIENDLY PATH
BY WALTER |. ROBINSON.
{fTTE OFTEN stood beside
II his gate.
An honest-faced old

(T TIE OFTEN stood beside
III his gate.
An honest-faced old
man."
The unknown author Of these
lines introduces a character
known to everyone and generally
loved. In every community
there may be found the aged man,
with the happy, smiling face.
The world has not showered a
great amount Of wealth upon
him. He has gone through
trouble and sickness. He leans
upon his worn cane before the
humble dwelling and he smiles
and chats In his quaint fashion
whenever one passes the gate.
Many who are more fortu-
nate than he feel more cheerful
when they receive his greeting.
They understand that he has
come to the evening Of his life
: without piling up riches and
without winning wide honor.
They are battling increasingly
to win both. They cannot flno
the cause for the peaceful look
on the old mans face. They
cannot imagine anyone being
happy In his declining years
without accomplishing much
that they aim to gain.
II one asked this familiar
character to explain the cause
for his apparent content, he
probably could not comply with
the request. The reason is so
simple that even he does not
recognize II.
He has acquired what neither
money nor honor can buy. He
has lived an honest life and
looks the world squarely In the
face. Countless persons are his
trustful friends. Lacking much
that others possess, he neverthe-
less has a clear conscience and
his mind Is at rest. The smiles
he receives from the populace
are the blessings which his own
open-hearted friendllness has
brought him to bring sunshine
into his few remaining days or
years.
The world needs TO catch the
spirit Of his kindly old soul.
One is poor indeed, regardless Of
his accumulation Of gold or his
poverty, II he approaches the
end Of the path without sincere
friends.
