be made by the teacher and the child

what he can acquire at home.
This should be more effective than
discussion of Hob-Goblins in

corn for instance means all that the

some point. At the end of IL years.

Much is given, little is kept. Per-
centage of retention is very low.
Perhaps the "high brows" have sew

sixth grade who saw the picture
once and then wrote review from
her own impression. The paper is in
the child's own words and style of
composition:
The other day we saw a very good
picture. It's main base was to show
us the General Motors proving
grounds. Each car is proved in many
different ways. To show that they
can turn we'll, they wet the left front
tire, then they turn in a very small
circle. The damp wheel traces the
journey and when they get through
they have formed circle. They also
showed how a Buick could go
through water and the engine would
never stall on her. That proves that
that is good.
They showed the cars dash
through mud, snow, gravel and
rough roads without ever capsizing
or the motor ever stopping. They had
speed tests on a slanting road and
every moment you catch your breath
for fear they will turn over. But
they never do.
1t also showed that they could go
so Glow that man could walk just
to keep up. From the looks of this
picture you can see that these mo-
tors are very good. Some of the cars
made by the General Motors Co. are
Chevrolet, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Mar
quette, Oakland, Buick, Viking, La
Sale and Cadiallac.

power of personal example in win

In the evening the Rally Day pro-

given by the teachers, officers and
pupils of the church school. The first
part of the pageant presented the
child from the unchurched home,
the child from the Indifferent home,
and the modern youth asking the
church to meet their need for train
ing. The second part presented the
teachers of the various departments
stating the needs of each age group
and what training and equipment is
necessary if we are to successfully
teach our boys and girls and young
people. In the third part of the pro-
gram, the spirit of supervised play,
the spirit of group worship, the spir-
it of service, the spirit of evangelism
and the worker in the larger parish
showed how these various agencies

can Selbyville secure a new school
building?"
If 2 per cent of the assessed valu-
alton of 1919 was named as the
amount to be raised and from that
the cost of the new four-room build
ing was deducted, what would be the
remaining sum which Selbyville
would be expected to raise?
Would the amount to be raised by
Selbyville be more than one-fifth of
the price of the towns improved
roads recently paved with tar and
sand?

SELLS BOOKS

Speedy living of modern times has
resulted in a switching over from
large books to small ones.
This is the finding Of the Rev. y,
r. Palmer, general manager of the
Review and Herald Publishing Asso-
ciation in his report to the home
missionary and bookmen's conven.
ton of the Seventh Day Adventists
at Takoma Park.
I'm these feverish, pleasure.loving
times. the automobile, movie, radio
and cheap story magazines are all
contributing to the tendency Of the
people to draw away from the old
fireside custom Of reading books"
said DIR. Palmer. He added that
"the tendency, therefore in our cwn
work, Ia toward cheaper literature,
with many Illustrations to catch
the spirit, IL possible, Of the swift
moving, high.liying public.
DR. Palmer reported that through
the Takoma Park publishing plant
$1,O7S,411 worth of literature dealing
with gospel subjects was sold during

man paced the corridor outside.
When the door finally opened, and
they wheeled Roy into his room
he knew there was hope.

Then he closed his eyes slcepily
again. Peter Clarke and the nurse
bent over him hopefully.

The eyelids barely fluttered again.
