Peter Has Company.
Experience 70 wisdom tends,
And of the past the future lends.


Peter Rabbit was impatient to get
out of that little brsmbIe- -tangle in
which he had so, long been kept a
prisoner. You see, he was very, very
hungry. 1t was hard work not to
start out at once as soon as he saw
Terror and Goshawk fly away. But
Peter is old enough now TO be wise
from experience. So he remained for
a long time In that hole he had dug
in the snow. peeping out, but not
showing himself
At last he made up his mind that
1t would be safe to go. He was just
getting ready to leave that hole in
the snow when he heard some one
right in that ramble-tangle.
1t startled Peter. For a minute he
couldn't think of any one who would
venture in among those branches
Then he heard some one saying very
softly, "Quit! Quit! Quiti" At once
Peter popped his head out
Hello, Mrs. Grouser' said Peter
What are you doing in hereT'
Mrs. Grouse showed the surprise
that she felt. You see, she hadn't
known that there was any one in
that bramble-tangfe. why, Peter
Rabbit, where under the sun did you
come from?" she exclaimed.
Peter grinned 81 was right here
all the time," said he.
Then Mrs. Grouse saw the hole in
the snow and understood my, it's
good TO feel safe for a few minutes"
said she I've just had the narrow
est escape from Terror the Goshawk
And then just before 1 got here I ran
almost into the mouth of Reddy Fox.
What blessing .brambles are! Have
you been here long?"
I've been here so long that I've
nearly starved" said Peter "I was
just getting ready to leave when you
arrived. 1t seems to me 1 never in
all my life was so nearly starved
I've eaten ali the tender shoots of
these brambles can reach, but they
are not vary filing. What did you
say about Reddy Fox7'
Il said that I nearly ran into: hfs
mouth just before I got here" replied
Mrs Grouse. tr.
Peter sighed. It was a long deep

The Eternal Way.

The Lord In His teachings had made
clear to the apostles that He was go
I'M home to the Father by the way OF
the cross and resurrection, but
Thomas in his confusion and doubt
shared with the others the view that
II was not necessary for the Master
to die. Thomas, who had revealed his
courage by his proposal to return
with Jesus from Perea to die with
Him, Interrupted the Lords address
with a question that revealed the
problem of the apostles. During all
their fellowship with Christ they had
depended absolutely upon Him. They
could not penetrate the future. They
were not able TO see the way to the
homeland at the end~of Hfe's journey
Gods program has usually been to
reveal a step at a time, so as to de-
velop faith and confidence In Him
The Masters reply brought the apos-
ties back to the spiritual realities by
pointing out that the way to eternity
is not a method but personality. 1t
was necessary for the Lord to return
to the Father so that He could be-
come the living pathway to the heav-
emily home for all who desired
