Church News
The church school was fairly well
attended Sunday morning. c. A.
Timmons, superintendent, being
away, the assistant superintendent,
Fred w. Ireland, was in charge. The
lesson for the day was carefully
gone over and the answers to the
questions asked were apt and to the
point.
What a wonderful church school
could be had in Glendale, if those
who should be interested, would do
their full duty. Everyone has duty
to perform from the superintendent
down to those who have charge OF
the primary department. Neglect of
certain services which goes with the
Office assumed, makes weak place
in the government of the school
the outcome is church school
which is unable to do the work as
signed to it. Church work of any
kind will always need leaders but
never bosses. Whenever any one as
sumes to manage affairs to the ex-
clusion of every one else, better get
clear of such an incumbrance, or it
will ruin your church and your
church school as well.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES.

Sacrament was the subject of the
lesson-sermon on Sunday, January
12, 1880, in all Churches Of Christ,
Scientist.
Golden Text: "He that hath my
commandments, and keepeth them,
he it is that loveth me: and he that
loveth me shall be loved of my
Father, and will love him, and will
manifest myself to him." John
14:2D.
Among the citations which COM
prised the lesson-sermon was the fol-
lowing from the Bible: "And as they
did eat, Jesus took bread, and
blessed, and brake it, and gave to
them, and said, take eat: this is my
body. And he took the cup, and
when he had given thanks, he gave
it to them: and they all drank of
it." mark 14:22,23).
The lesson-sermon also included
the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip
tures," by Mary Baker Eddy: Our
baptism is a publication from all
error. Our church is built on the
divine Principle, Love. D.. Our Eu-
charist is spiritual communion with
the one God. Our bread, (which
cometh down from heaven" is Truth.
Our cup is the cross. Our wine the
inspiration of Love, the draught our
Master drank and commended to his
followers" (p. 35).

Drab Furniture Made Gay

Many homes that lack distinction
can easily be made quite out of the
ordinary without adding a single
new piece of furniture. Often, gay
coat of enamel or lacquer on an old
piece of furniture will not only
transform the object itself but will
change the appearance Of the whole
room.
All types of furniture are adapt
able to this rejuvenation process. A
drop-Ieaf table, for instance, can go
far in dispelling the gloom of a
windowless reception hall, if the ta-
BILE is enameled in some bright tint
and the leaves are treated with stem
Gil designs. A simple round table
may be lacquered in jade green and
a border of some oriental pattern
can be added to the top. Telephone
cabinets are often purely utilitarian,
but fresh color will make them at
tractive in whatever color desired.
Children's rooms always look
fresh when their furnishings are
painted, enameled or lacquered. Pas
tel tints are always suitable for a
bedroom, particularly child's room
and ivory, light blue, pea green,

Put children close to peanuts and

This is a lesson learned by David
Butler, director of Sunny Side Up
next weeks all talking and singing
feature at the Dover Opera House.
Butler, finishing a seuence with
Janet Gaynor and Charles Farrell,
co-featured in "Sunny Side Up,"
looked about for his hundred young
extras who figure in the street
scene. He finally discovered them
raiding the edible supply on the set
ting.
The "props" had to be replaced
with fresh stock, but when work
was completed he turned them loose
again. He's their idol now!

made by the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics, United States Depart

milking, feeding, caring for utensils
and cleaning the barn, but not haul
ing manure from the barn, deliver
ing milk, or caring for young stock.

No, sir a room couldn't run away.
That wasn't possible.
Impy was just about to go outside
and look for Mrs. Impy when his keen
ears caught a sound. Yes some one
was digging. There was no doubt about
it, Suddenly he realized that the sound
Of that digging was coming from just
about where that lost room used to be.
What did it mean? What could it
mean? Impy backed away and waited.
He was all ready to run. Yes, stree: he
was all ready to run. You see, he didn't
know what it was all about
Some sand came trickling down. A
moment later a door had opened Of
course, that door was a door of sand
and the sand had simply been dug
away. A small head was thrust out
of the doorway.
"Oh" cried Impy. ooh, Frisky, my
dear, is that you?"
Don't be siilyl OF course it's me-!
Who else would 1t be?" replied Mrs.
IInpy. Have you seen Shadow the
Weasel?"
yes" replied Impy. He left long
ago."
You're sure about that?" asked Mrs.
1mpy.
IF he hadn't gone, wouldn't be
here" replied Impy. "Of course I'm
tell me, my dear, how is it he didn't
catch you?"
Because 1 shut the door in his face,
stupid" replied little Mrs. Impy.
What door?" asked Impy. who
really was very much perplexed.
Little Mrs. Impy almost lost patience.
For goodness sake, Impy, what is the
matter with you? You just saw me
open the door didn't you?"
yes" replied Impy.
well, of course, that is the door
shut in Shadows face" she replied.
You see, I was lucky enough to see
Shadow first was outside and saw
Shadow following trail with his nose,
and knew that he was going to find
the entrance to our home. 1 knew
that I wouldn't have a chance in the
world outside and that I had but one
chance inside. So I hurried down into
/ this storeroom and packed the entrance
| full Of earth, Sure enough, Shadow
came down here Just as I thought he
would He came down, but he didn't
get me-"
I'm so glad" broke in Impy at
would have broken my heart if he had
caught you"
J well, your heart won't have to be
