A Sermon for Today
BY REV. JOHN r. GUM.
Beyond Ordinary Days Work.
BIZ FANNY Z. CORY.

They shall behold a land of far
distances. is, xxxiii,17.
There is a land of near distances
the land where we trudge along the
small and routine round of our daily
work. But there is also "a land of far
distances land where we may find
interests other than those that belong
put into action powers other than those
required to perform our daily tasks. If
we would live balanced life, we must
take account of both these lands. While
not neglecting the duties and obliga-
tons that come within the one, we
must not ignore the privileges and
pleasures to which the other invites us.
To do so is to miss much of the flavor
and fragrance of life.
Man was made for wider and more
varied interests than can be found in
the narrow sphere Of the ONCE, the
shop, the store. We should so order
our lives that there shall be respites
from the daily grind of toll; when
thought shall be set free to explore
other fields; when the faculties of emo
ton and imagination shall be let loose
W IdIlSc III illSAlcI IedLHSs Wu6u Tic
sould shall go forth into the land of
far distances" and respond to the
beauty and music of the world, He
who neglects to do this will thereby
permit parts of his brain to become at
rophied by disuse, thus dwarf1ng his
nature This will be the inevitable ex-
perience of The man in the Office, whose
horizon is fixed by its walls; of the man
| In the factory, who knows only the
thoughts of the factory; of the man in
| the laboratory who knows only the
pursuits of the laboratory, and Of every
man who shuts himself up to any one
area of thought and action.
1t is, of course, essential to the high
est life that we shall be faithful and
diligent in the commonplace task. But
if we would live life of fine and full
measure, We must not be negligent of
those interests and opportunities be-
yond the ordinary days work.

Every day Impy, the black Chipmunk
did little hunting. Please don't think
that Impy and little Mrs. Impy lived
entirely on, nuts and seeds and things
of that kind. All the members of the
Squirrel family and of course, this in
cludes the Chipmunks, like little
meat now and then. Yes, sir, they do
so. They not only like it, but they
get it.
So. this particular morning Impy had
started out to look for some meat. He
felt hungry for meat OF course, some
good big insects would do very nicely.
He thought of grasshoppers, but he
hadn't had much luck getting grass
hoppers of late. You see, they were
beginning to be a little out of season
Nevertheless. Impy started out to look
for some. He knew that II he could
only find some, they would be easier
to catch now than they had been earlier
in the season when it was warmer.
Impy had hunted about for some
time in places where he had found
graSShopperS before, but without sue
cess this time. He was getting dis
couraged when he noticed a little
movement in the grass Just ahead of
him. Instantly he was all alertness. He
stole forward softly but rapidly, peer
| ing ahead with those bright little eyes
of his for whatever might be there.
Something, or some one, was moving
| through that grass. Presently he saw
something green. The grass was no
| longer green, it was brown. It was a
half-grown grass snake. Impy's eyes
sparkled. Here was the meat he
| needed.
Just then the little snake saw him
| and faced him. There was nothing
cowardly about the little snake. He
raised his head and ran his tongue out
at Impy, and If he was afraid he didn't
show it. Impy danced this way and
danced that way, looking for a chance
to spring in and seize that little snake
by the back Of his head. Presently he
saw his chance and, darling forward
he seized the little snake. The latter
struggled and struggled, but in vain.
Very proudly Impy started home with
his prize.
Mrs. Impy saw Impy coming. what
have you there?" she demanded.
Fresh meat" replied Impy. at was
very meat hungry. Nuts and seeds and
mushrooms are all very well, but one
needs little meat to go with them

Impy. II was meat hungry myself ]

I couldn't find one. This will do quite

So Impy and Mrs Impy dined on the
little snake. I suspect that many OF
their friends do not know that Chip

while. They do, however, just as they

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

All of us long for the impossible. If
we could choose our facial character
istics we would all have short, tip
tilted noses, enormous eyes and dimples.
My own round-faced daughter pines for
long face with high cheekbones.
When mothers have ceased to sigh for
the moon for themselves, they want
miracles for their children.
Imagine letting this be a worry when
there are so many real ones in the
world! A worried mother writes me:
"I see where you help others and I
would be obliged If you helped me- My
baby daughter is 2 years old and
built proportionately. Her hair will not
grow. I have tried not washing 1t for
several days and this hasn't helped.
She has never had her hair cut but
I have trimmed it. ! would just. love
to see her hair In curlS. Her hair
grows darker every day. Would you
think it safe to use something on it?"
When mothers ask me. IF brush
the baby's hair the wrong way when
1t is wet, will it curl in time?" and
then again, MY baby's hair is curly.
If have it cut will the curl leave it?"
can only say that If curly hair could
be encouraged by any such methods,
| there wouldn't be a Straight-ha
adult, and If curly hair would be lost
because of cutting there wouldn't be
a curly-haired man.
OF course, we know that nothing
like this happens. If a child has
straight hair 1t remains straight; if it
is curly, ditto. The shape of the hair
! shaft itself is what makes curly or
straight hair, for we know that even
thin fiat silver of wood will curl,
while round tube of any kind re-
SistS every effort to make 1t stay
curled. When an adult has a perma-
nent wave the change comes about
because the hair shaft is temporarily
pressed fiat by heat. AS soon as the
new round-cylindered hair grows in
1t IS just as straight as it ever was.
In this case permanent" means for
My suggestion is to make the best
of whatever type of hair baby has in
| herited. Whether straight or curly
blond, red or black it is attractive II
clean, healthy and well kept. Cut
your childs hair so that it frames the
face attractively, keep it well brushed
wash 1t twice weekly with good soar
suds, rinse well and in the last rinse
water squeeze the Juice of lemon

The thickness and health of the
hair are definitely affected by the child'c
diet. Any part Of the body is only
specifically improved by being treated
directly; but the whole body is at.
fected, and therefore each part of it
by good food, plenty of sunshine and
fresh air. sleep and exercise. This il

attitude toward work. 1t makes one
feel inadequate to attempt any under
taking. It declares inability, when
ability may be present. It saps courage
and when courage goes, life seems FILL
ed with problems one Is untitled TO
cope with. For this reason parents
should be very wary of letting any child
doubt his ability to do things. Encour-
age him to try. He may succeed. II
he feels your lack Of faith in him, he
will be more easily discouraged, and
this is the precursor of failure.
Since doubt is the enemy Of happi-
ness in family relations, the foe of am
bition, the destroyer of courage and
the opponent of work, 1t is baleful
element, and needs to be drowned.
Its greatest enemy is faith. This is
the constructive element. Where it is
present, doubt is ousted. So encourage
faith in yourself, in your attitude to-
ward tllQSe of your household, toward
your friends. Have faith in your

BOND
ISSUES ARE HIGHER
Cut in RediSCount Rate Aids
Prime Group-Trading
Quiet.
BY F. H. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 24-The
feature of the bond market today was
the dullness of trading. Prices, led
by the high-grade group, worked irregu-
larry higher owing to the dropping OF
the New York Federal Reserve redis-
count rate to 2 per cent: but there
were so few people actually at their
desks in the financial district that the
ultimate effect of this cut will not be
felt until after Christmas.
What buying appeared was highly

covered that many bids in secondary
and third grade issues had been with
drawn until Friday. Nowhere were the
declines of an important nature.

f1ected the drop in the rediscount rate
and bankers acceptanceS went to a
new low for the year.

strong from the start. Advances in
this class included Atchison General As,

AUTO TRADE TO AID
OTHER INDUSTRIES
Expected Increase in Car
Production viii Be Reflected
in Many Lines.

The betterment in the technical po-
sition of the automobile manufacturers
and dealers is casting brighter light
on the prospects for score Of other
industries
Stocks of passenger cars in the last
two months have fallen by nearly
10000 throughout the country This
does not include foreign sales, but
those by domestic purchasers.
The 1880 output of passenger cars
will be at least IS per cent less than
it was in 1929 and the increase in
sales can indicate only one thing-that
production must increase in the near
future.
Replacement sales.
Perhaps the first to benefit from this
increase will be the tire manufac-
turers. Stocks of original equipment
tires in the hands of manufacturers
are low. Sales for original equipment
purposes have taken on a new i'm
portance in view of the fact that re-
at any time in the history of the
rubber tire trade. Department of
Commerce figures show that renewals
amounted to less than two tires per
registered car this year. This COM
pares with 8 new tires per car on the
average in 1908. About 10000, 600 tires
will be sold for requirements this year.
For each new car 5 new tires usually
are sold.
Increase in tire production naturally
means increase in rubber consumption.
Stocks of rubber are extremely high,
the price Is low and tire makers are
not obliged to buy in large quantities.
but the improvement is bound to be
reflected in crude rubber sooner or
later.
The placing of orders by automobile
companies naturally means much to
the steel industry. Already inquiries
for sheets are making their appear
ance both in Chicago and Ohio-Penn-
sylvania districts. 1t is reported one
concern has placed raw material or
semi finished material orders for about
$4,000, 900. To furnish these goods,
many accessory dealers also will have
to buy steel.
Textile Trade to Benefit.
The textile industry will benefit to
the extent of hundreds of thousands Of
yards of fabric for tops, curtains and
seat covers, while the paint producers
will again begin to ship to one of their
favcrite customers. The automobile in
dustry is one of the heaviest con-
sumers of non-ferrous metals and i'm
provement in the motor centers will
bring renewed demand for copper,
lead, zinc, nickel, chromium, alumni
mum and other metals. When inn
provement is noted in the automobile
trade, the plate glass manufacturers
begin to turn on the gas under addi-
tional units. for no small part of their
output gees into car windows and
windShields.
From these facts it can be seen that
when the automobile industry and two
or three other large lines really get 60
ing. the unemployment problem will
solve itself in short order.
