By Her Pastor

Mrs. Pluma Anne Emery seem.
ingly found her Chief Joy in helping
those in trouble, in need, in sorrow.
Just the other day heard this re-
mark, Twill never forget her kind
ness in our bereavement" She like
the Master went about doing good
She was an untiring worker in
the Community, and Church which
she loved. Frequently have heard
her say in the past weeks. Il can't
work in the Church like used to.
How I wish / could do more. There
is SO much to he done How we
win miss her CHEEKY smile. and
words of encouragement.
This Community has lost val
liable citizen, The Home, a loving
tender, patient Mother. The Church
a loyal Member. and a consistent
follower of Christ "One whose life
spoke well for Jesus Christ"
Hers was the ideal life. For the
life lived for others To make Others
happy. To help those in trouble.
To speak kind word. To do a
Christlike Act. To help make some
Ones burden lighter. That is the
ideal life. That is the life worth
while.
Such an influence. Can you meas
ure it? Can you fathom it? Can
you estimate it? No. 1t is beyond
all human comprehension Such
n life cannot die For to live In
hearts of those we leave behind, is
not to die"
What a beautiful ending, to such
beautiful life. How fitting that
on Easter morn, the day which her
Saviour rose from the grave, She
too should be resurrected to walk
with Him in newness of life. TO
day she stands among the Redeemed
This is her Coronation Day. Far
from a world of grief and Sin, for
ever, with her God shut in.
BLESSED are the dead who die In
the Lord"
The bravest battle that was ever
fought. Shall tell you where and
when. On the maps of the world
you will find it not. Twas fought
by the mothers of men.
Nay not with cannon or battle
shot. Withsword or noble pen.
Nay not with eloaeunt word or
thot. From the mouths of wonder
full men.
But deep in walled up woman's
heart. OF women that would not
yeild. But bravely silently bore
their part Lo, there. is the
Battle Field"

New Idea.

She happened to love her husband
even though she had been welded to
him for some time. She kept con-
stantly realizing hat in this respect
she was supposed to be both unusual
md northumberland envied.
She engaged q cook not long ago
and gave a list of standard rules. She
forgot to tell her that If anything ran
low on a night when guests came %
dinner, above all the husband must
not suffer-he must have the best of
everything at all times. After a din
ner party she realized that her nus
band had not been served the best and
choicest portions. So she told the
cool this most important rule.
"All right, ma'am," the cook agreed,
"but how did you think l was to know
such a thing? Sure, I've been workin'
now for forty years, and you're the
first who ever told me a husband must
have the best."-New York Sun.

BEING

THE first and final requisite of civil
\ ization is that the people shall be
neighborly. There is no better remedy
for temperamental Indigestion than
good-fellowship-nothing so productive
of amity between individuals and ma
tions.
When neighbors call to one another
from opposite doorways they are I'M
consciously strewing the rough path
OF life with flowers, making the home
atmosphere brighter and easing n
another's burdens.
The wealth of the world cannot
buy such friendliness.
Such ciyility as this usually
emanates from the middle classes who
compose the great majority. They sing
at their work, accept their position in
society with c~omplacency. Among such
people the destitute never starve nor
remain unattended in illness.
The women folk, besides keeping
their homes neat as lilies, mend cloth
ing, darn stockings, and as likely as
not make their own dresses, If they
find by so doing they a save a little
money to help in sending their Will
liams to college and their Marys, who
have wonderful voices, to the con-
%servatory of music.
And the husky men build barns, dig
bitches, plant gardens, prune trees,
fight potato bugs and crank up their
automobiles with punctilious regular
lty for a family ride.

Uncommon
Sense

thrown from birth on their own re
sources develop a craft that some
times carries them to a very old age.
A lap dog. turned out to shift for
itself, would not last very long. Like
the canary, it has lived a life of de.
pendence on others. All the qualities
that might have enabled it to make
its way have withered for want of use.
A magazine writer criticizes private
schools, with justice, because they do
not fit pupils for the struggle for ex-
istence. Removed from contact with
the kind of people they will meet in
actual life, they are often helpless
when they are sent out on their own.
Young men and young women must
learn very early the necessity of help
ing themselves.
Begin depending on some one else,
and you will always depend on some
one else. Begin depending on your
self and you will form a habit that
with practice will insure success.
Perhaps 80 per rent of the popula-
ton, even of this enlightened country,
allow other people to do their think
ing for them.
Editors, preachers, school teachers
scatter broadcast ideas, most of them
secondhand. Men and women, finding
thought wearisome, accept these ideas
and act on them.

Something to Think About

Blu F. A. UALKER

Bridge parties and five o'clock teas
are not so popular with them.
They prefer %neighborly confrater-
mites, the great outdoors. the buds
and blooms, the lovely scents of earth
and air, where their Joy can gush out
without restraint.
They are not human counterfeits.
They admit their frailties, but If you
will observe them closely, you will
discover that their redeeming quail
ties, which sweeten their cares, are
far In excess of their faults.
Comfortably happy themselves, they
delight in giving happiness to others.
Their souls are awake to the growing
need of a friendlier relation. a closer
alliance and a stronger bond of sym
pathy among the various sons of men,
whose greater troubles come from not
being %neighborly.
Even if we regard such concord as
no more than a sort of primitive
friendship, it has in 1t divine princl-
plies of excellence which neither querist
nor analyst can argue away.

| NEVER KNEW
By GRACE E. HALL

T NEVER knew that tears could burn
L Like acid, til they left ID scar.
Nor that a heart might truly learn
To hide the deep and painful mar;
Nor that the sunshine sometimes
turned
Into a fever fierce and hot,
But these at last I've learned, I've
learned
Since you forgot.
That life could seem a desert plain
Where cactus grew by crumbllng
wall,
The winds a breath hard-drawn in
pain,
Were truths l never guessed at all
But I've been taught by torture slow
That JOY and pain and love are one
And that the world must never know
What love has done.

Many of these ideas are good, OF
course. But they are really of little
benefit unless they are weighed and
tested before acceptance.
Learn to do your own work, and
your own thinking. Get out of tine
cage of dependence. Form your own
opinions, and act on them.
If your early years r spent lean
ing on others, your later years will
probably be spent in the poor house.
The habit of dependence is the hardest
of all habits to break. 1t can never
be broken after you are forty.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
CHE ESE"

TT HATS the cheese" is a
I slang expression far more
. common IA few years ago than it
. is at the present time, colloquial-
J isms having a tendency to be
!. short-liyed. But, in spite of the
! fact that the phrase was never
/, formally admitted TO polite so
!. ciety, it has an ancestry and a
, pedigree of which many a more
, pretentious word might well be
. proud.
Tracing ii backwards, we find
that in the Anglo-SaXon days
j the word Cheese was spelled
''cese" and pronounced almost
j precisely like the modern Ger
man equivalent. In Tristan it
j was "tzise," while the Latin was
~"caseus" which, in Spanish. de-
j yeloped into 'queso" and in
Italian into "cacio." The Celtic
languages slightly changed it in
TO 'caic" in Irish, "casse" in
Gaelic and "caws" in Welsh. Ii
will therefore be seen that the
original ancestry of the word
is lost somewhere in the dim
passages o. the early history of
language-but, strange as it may
seem, That's the cheese" bears
no relation to the article made
from milk.
This phrase slipped into Eng
fish by way of India, where
many OF the British soldiers
picked up bits of Hindustani,
among them a word derived
from the Persian ''chiz," mean
ing "a thing" In dealing with
the native merchants the sol
diers fell into the habit of point
ing to something and saying
THAT'S the chiz," meaning
That's what | want" and, when
they returned home, they
brought the saying with them.

have to keep the coal in a pail IN
the kitchen. Block after block in
the heart of the city IL covered with
houses which were erected before
bathtubs became fashionable.
There Ia only one remedy, and
that 10 the public bath, Alderman
Delaney believes; therefore ne will
introduce before the common council
an ordinance to build such a bath
at some centrally located point, con-
tiguOuS to the great unwashed.
My plan Is an ll-the-year-a around
public bath, as bathing should not
be seasonal, strictly speaking. Ten
showers and q plunge are the speci-
fications l have in mind. With
these, figuring on a basis of ten
minutes to the bath, we could wash
the entire population of Binghamton
in a few days, exclusive of Sunday"
The alderman's plan Is to have two
days each week when men may
battle free Of charge, and two such
days for women. On other days a
charge Of 10 cents per head per bath
is to be made.
