"Ah, but as we said before" the ap-
pies said, "you needed help.
"Now we yer a great help to you"

of fruit would have been,"' said the
p~iecrust.

can be more important to a pie than
the apples?"

"Our opinion is very valuable and
Of great Importance" said the apples.
"But," said the p~iecrust, 'if squash
or berries Of some sort had been used
I would still have been as important"

Nothing in the world is quite equal
to an apple pie"
"Ah, you ZEE. you have to mention
the pie too"
"But we would be good ven IL we
weren't in a pie" said the apples.
A'We could be used as apple u
or baked apples, or apple pudding or
apple cake or wen as raw apples"

Piles. "Just suppose we. had said we

would have been hard on her, and all
her work would have been Of no use"
"You couldn't have changed matters
by saying anything like that" said the
p~iecrust. "You had to do as you We're

was given. Early in the fall of the

activities. the club disbanded.

When Mr., Wyatt returned from
overseas. tho Westminster Cleo Club
was reorganized. Members of other
musical groups Joined In large num-
bers. Many choruses from the best
known oratorios were rendered. "The
Niikado." which was staged In April.
1921. was success. SO great was the
demand for seats that n second per-
formance was necessary. At the bust
ness meeting, which was held shortly
after these performances, It was
thought that the time had come for
studying more ambitious choral
music; SO 1t was decided that the
Westminster Choral Club would be n
more appropriate name.
After the summer recess the club
accomplished splendid work In singing
sacred music. The club appeared once
a month at the vesper service OF West
minister Church. These services pre-
sented a splendid opportunity for the
Joy of musical expression.

THE BEST MORTGAGE LlFTERS

Mr.. Knoble is now a prosperous
farmer, and when The Herald visitor

fine herds of Holsteins and Herefords

I'm the fall of 1910 I was broke; I
didn't have enough money to mail a
letter for two months, SO I couldn't
eve write home and borrow some
money. In that fall they cancelled
the contract on my farm. I couldn't
pay taxes, interest or anything. as the
wheat had only yielded enough to pay
the seed lien. They wanted security
on my personal property, but I
