FIND PLEASURE IN PAINTING
Almost Every Ono Has At Some Time
Of Life Been Fond Of Handling
Bright ,Coiors.

Nearly everybody likes to paint. We
like to feel the paint flow from the
brush and to see the dull. dirty sur
face we are painting covered with a
smooth, brightly colored coating. which
not only lends beauty to it, but pro-
tects it as we'll against the destructive
influences Of the weather and the cor
rosive gases in the air. 1t may be that
the almost universal pleasure found In
lpainting is an inhe trent trait, commu'
}nicated to us through the centuries by
our savage forefatlrers, who mixed pig
=ment with fat or grease and smeared
their bodies and faces with it. Paint
is no modern invention; even white
lead is Of ancient origin, declares a
New York Sun writer. The story is
told Of the wife Of the famous Greek
general. Xenophon, who had the habit
of smearing white lead on her face
and wearing high heels until her hus'
band told her ha thought her pretty
enough as she was without the appll-
cation Of artificial aids to beauty.
There Is a reference traced back as
far as the Seventh century A. D., which
is the first recorded instance of the use
Of paint to cover q wooden carriage,
very much in the manner prevalent to-
day. There are earlier historical men-
tions of the use Of paint, but these
refer more to sizes, such as glue and
special paints such as those made with
wax and used by the Romans in admix-
ture with glue to paint their ships of
war. The Egyptians used glue sizes
and varnishes. The mummy cases in
museums indicate that clearly and
probably form the earliest examples Of
vanished articles In existence.

Qidtin,e Football.

Football may be rough game, but
it is quite gentle and harmless now
compared to what II used to be. Way
back in the Eighteenth century when
the sport was in its swaddllng clothes,
the type Of ball used was not so kind
to the feet Of the one who kicked it.
Eighteenth-century footballs were
made Of straw which was braided
until a long rope was obtained. This
was then wound and coiled into the
shape desired. The finishing touch
was to knock it around in water until
it became hard and unyielding.

MISSION SOCIETY
ENJOYS UNUSUAL PROGRAM

A program of unusual interest was
given at the meeting Of the Woman's

church. Mrs. G. H. Zentz conducted
the devotions and Mrs. J. C. McGhee
had charge of the lesson, India" a
dramatization Of the "Workings Of
the Gospel in India" by ten young la

placed the old straw model, It was
stuffed with horse hair until it be-
came hard and solid. The leather ball
was at first scoffed at by, the old.
timers who had played the game when
straw balls were in vogue. Even when
stuffed with hair, the leather ball was
regarded as a toy for weaklings who
were afraid of injuring their feet
The parents Of that age had more
cause to complain about; the roughness
Of the game than have those Of today,
whose sons kick inflated pigskin in
stead OF solid balls Of straw.

Fear Of Old Ideals.

The future is q blank on which every
as he likes; the past I find already COW
cred with illegible scribbles, such as
Plato, Isaiah, Shakespeare, Michael
Angelo, Napoleon. 1 can make the fu-
ture as narrow as my self; the past is
obliged to be as broad and turbulent
as humanity, and the upshot Of this
modern attitude is really this: That
men invent new ideals because they
dare not attempt old ideals. They look
forward with enthusiasm. because they
are afraid to look back.-G. X. Ches-
