by all the thoughtful provisions for

mons that signed Israel to centuries
Of association with a foreign people
who later enslaved their posterity.
One of the most striking scenes of all
literature is that of Joseph's loyal
love for that old Bedouin father of the
skin tents and shephed garb. Unlock
ing the chambers of the past we un-
derstand something of the magnif-
cence of the Court of Pharaoh and it
was into that splendor that was now
the portion of Joseph that the old her.
der was suddenly ushered. Did JOS
eph keep him in the background? Did
Joseph hesitate about introducing him
to his friends? Straight into the pal
ace of the king he led him and said
to that magnificent monarch: 81 want
you to meet my father" And the
CLEAN of amusement died in his eyes
at the tone of honest pride in the
voice of the premier and he played
the game in a way that shows him
every inch a king, for bowling his
head he received with royal courtesy
the benediction of that desert shep-
he'd. To treat old age in this fashion
is mark of high character and links
Joseph with that greater Jesus who
stopped through his own pain for the
world to lift roof above the head of
Mary. And the call of love is the only
one that the heart Of the world can
respond to and live for it is the call
of its Redeemer.

him and his position by bringing Re-
bakah and no doubt others who were
stirred by the picture drawn by the
shrewd Eliezer of the wealth his mas
ter had gotten in this land of des-
tiny. But Rebakah was host in her
self and Isaac became a settler so
far as nomadis life may take that
name. He lacked his fathers force,
but possessed wonderful patience and
persistence. Jacob and Esau were
sons of the land, and if the former
had not so determinedly tricked his
brother they might have re-
manned always within its borders.
Esau became the head of clan able
to put four hundred fighters into the
field by the time Jacob had had his

oppression by the Exodus.
THE HATE CALL

Joseph is one of the finest charac-
ters Of the Old Testament and his
story is a universal favorite. The
pampered child of the aging Jacob
who was hated both because of the
fathers favoritism and his own prig-
gishness, learned two things from that
father that became the bases of all his
later life. God was real, as vivid a
Presence as Abraham had known: and
he worked hard at whatever Job he
might hold. Sold slave and driven
to tasks, he might we'll have lost faith
and have "soldiered" at his work, but
he did neither, nor would he listen to
the call to hate his brothers and those
who were denying him his freedom.
Then came the false witness that sent
him to prison, but here also God and
work were his comrades and hate or
bitterness uncultivated. Neglect by
one he had befriended in his own mis-
fortune still left his faith firm and his
will to work undaunted, while he still
refused to hate. Suddenly called to
the palace, and promoted to the high
est position in the gift of the king,
with riches and honors thrown upon
him, he gave all credit to Jehovah
upon whom he had leaned thru all the
disappointing days. He still event
out over all the land of Egypt" in toll
some journeys in order that he might
understand the situation and do the
work involved in the position he held.
And with power to crush Potiphar,
enmesh his wife in the strands of her
own duplicity, Danish the butler and
get even with every wielder of the
lashes of yesterday he refused to hate
and allowed them all to go their ways
IunmOlested. Then his brothers came
begging for food as the famine swept
across Palestine. With the skill
gained in his years of contacts with
all sorts of men he refused admittance
to hate and studied them that he
might know the best course to take.
What response would they make to
suffering unjustly given? SO Simeon
was imprisoned. Were they honest?
Their money was hidden in the sacks.
Would they still harm child of Ra-
chel? A "frame-up" was planned
against Benjamin that left them free
to take their own way while slavery
would be his portion! Had they grown
considerate of the fathers feelings
outraged in Joseph's own case? Ben
jamin was fettered. Splendidly they
responded to the tests and Joseph's
joy was unbounded as he gave unuual-
flied forgiveness for all the past. de-
claring that God had used it all for
good.
THE CALL OF LOVE
Joseph loved his brethren into new
life, but his passion was for that

Radovan Hunting
 Rich Bench Channel

Charley Range, winter manag CT of the Dan Creek Mining Co is in town on a short business trip. Commenting on the creek. Mir. Range stated that while the winter has been drifting by,Mar tin Radovan has been sinking along the rim in search ofa third bench channel, that is supposed to exist.
 Radovan has been doing all the thawing with wood fires. so the progress has necessarily, been rather slow, but spring will see the completion af the prospect ing and will prove the extent of the benches on one part of the creek.
 If che old channelis found to exist, it will probably lie at the contact of the greensboro and the soft shale that forms the bed rock, upon which the placer val. ues are now found. In case the channel is not too shallow, it is expected that this is where the richest gravel will be found.

county boards are made up for the
most part of women who have devot-
ed themselves to charitable and well
fare work, and with their terms ex-
piring one each year, the Board con-
tinues its work without disruption
and free from political influence.
The duty of the county board is to
investigate all cases eligible to bene-
fits under the state law. reporting
their recommendations to the State
Board, which makes final disposi-
tion. One of the chief duties of the
State Board is to examine into the
merits of each and every case re-
ported by the county boards.
AS originally organized, there were
five members of the State Board
making an unwieldy organization of
doubtful efficiency. When this fact
was realized, the State Legislature
cut down the membership from five
to three with marked results in econ
omy Of operation and promptness in
the handling Of the work.
The three women constituting the
State Board are well fitted for the
noble work they are performing. To
their mature years, sympathetic un-
derstanding and genuine love for
children is attributed the remarkable
results which have been attained un-
der their leadership. Mrs Vernet-
tie o. Ivy of Phoenix, Is chairman Of
the Board; she is also a member of
the Executive Committee of the Chill.
drens Home Association, through
which the Board Is cooperating
with splendid success. Mrs. w. 8.
Johnson of Prescott and Mrs. Fran
ces w Kimball of Thatcher are he
two other members.
One of the chief duties of the
Board Is the personal visitation to
all homes where wards of the State
have been placed. Home surr ,unj-
ings and neighf orhood contacts Mo
critically examined, and the charac-
ter of the foster mothers investga,-
ed most carefully. in order to insure
proper mfial atmosphere for sll
of the States children. This is a big
task, but task of love and one
which is carried out with business
like thoroughncss, as well as ara all
of the affairs of the Department. Ibe
Board keeps open office at the State
Capitol with an efficient secretary
on hand at all times to receive ap-
plicaticns for assistance and com.
plants, if any there be, and to han
die the voluminous correspondence.
