"BE IT EVER SO HUMBLE" ~

CTAND at busy corner any evening and you will
see long lines of autos their drivers so eager to
be their way that they lose patience over the
slightest traffic delay.
Where they going?
What's the hurry?
They are going home They want to get there
NOW.
HOME, a mansion on a hill, or a cottage in a
valley is the great American institution which gives
assurance that set-backs Notwithstanding, this
nation will survive to climb to higher and higher
planes
For in our castle, tiny though it may be, our
purpose is strengthened our character is builded.
Here>we dream our dreams, and from here go
forth into the world to make those dreams come
true
1t is here that bring Mary, the bride of our
choice. Perhaps money is scarce at first but we
are young, and to the young life is poem set to
music which sings in the heart.
A YEAR has passed since Mary and John stood at
the altar. John has been watching the wisps
of blue smoke curling above the embers in the fire
place of their little nest Finally he chances at Mary.
For moment he is speechless with surprise He
stares wide-eyed at the tiny garment which is TAX
ing shape under the magic touch of her nimble
fingers.
MARY"

She smiles at him. She is amused at the fright
ened expression on his face. Funny how men always
get scared at time like that!
when, Maryw
"ln time to be your Christmas present, I hope"
And thus they approach the first important mile
stone on the long road which winds and winds it's
devious course through pleasant pastures, likewise
into valleys where the shadows sometimes are deep
and the going hard

The light OF the morning finds them there, and
the noon and the evening and another night. The
doctor comes again-and again-and again.
i can't tell yet he says, in answer to their
questions.
Another morning!
The child opens its eyes and smiles-a feeble,
wan smile, but there is recognition in it. Maybe
the doctor has won, or maybe whatever gods there
be look down upon US sometimes and are touched
by the terror which creeps into our souls Who
knows? We only know that the lad lives long to
, bless the home of Mary and John.
WE have said that purpose is strengthened and
character is buided in the home 1T IS.
For it is in the home that Life pours us into its
cruclbe-the good of US and the bad of us-and
tests us in its fire. At last Life Skins off the dross
OF us and leaves us better than we were
Take the home out of the scheme of things and
this nation and all of the nations of the world would
collapse.
The home is something more than just house.
1t is the place where children are born; where
baby feet taught to take the first step; where
baby lips are taught to lisp the first word; where
Daby fingers become entwined in our heartstrings.
1t is here that girhood becomes womanhood and
IS taught to set the example of virtue in world
that is none too vrtuous.
1t is here that boyhood ripens into manhood and
is given the groundwork of the yearning desire to
go forth and be Somebody.
We think much on this subject as we scan this
page OF this newspaper, day by day. and appreciate
the Importance Of men and women establishing
themselves not merely in houses-but in homes
IN homes that they own, if it may be. At least in
homes in which good influence prevails.
We should like to feel that this newspaper is
factor in establishing a degree of contentment
among those who are disconnected; degree of sta
blllty among those who are uncertain and who
shrink from the responsibility of good citizenship
Own home if you can.
= II you can't, find among these columns house,
and bring to it the dignity, the wholesome atmos-
phere that belongs to the word to which the
minds of men and women ever turn when their
feet tread strange paths.
That one word is HOME

emerged from his daze, he will begin to think Sc
cretly his mind leaps the gap OF the years. about
which college he should send it to, and whether it
should be schooled in craftsmanship. But now his
thoughts are only of his wife,
WHAT IF SHE SHOULD DEF
But she doesn't die.
The baby thrives. John asks all manner of ques-
tons about it and especially is he interested in how
rapidly it will develop.
when will it begin to look lke-wel, some
thing?"
"JOHNr' says Mary, shocked.
''Well you know, it IS kind of red, and it seems
to me that it isn't old enough to have so many
wrinkles It's head You think its head is all right?
| mean there isn't anything wrong with it-men-
tally?
'Stop that, john How dare you?
'But when will it begin to talk? And walk?
What Can't crawl for months"
1t just seems that he can't wait that long.
RUT time is fleet. The weeks and the months
speed. And the years-two of them.
Will the doctor never come?
They sit at the bedside, John and Mary.
The face of their boy is flushed with fever. His
arms are never quiet. His head rolls from side to
side, back and forth, back and forth, he mumbes
His voice is but the shadow of a sound. Mary puts
her close to listen.
What is he saying, Mary?"
HE is calling Daddy.
"Do you think, Mary that he will"
Il don't know john | don't know"
Tears roll down the woman's cheeks. John pats
her hand, in approval
That's good, he says. 81 wish that could cry
1t seems like giant has my heart in his great hand
and is squeezing it."
The doctor comes at last.
Serious" he says.
He writes a prescription and John speeds
through the night to have it filled.
The medicine administered, husband and wife sit
in silence-and wait as stricken wives and hus-
bands have waited through their agony hours in
all the ages that have been, when lives of loved
have hung by web fine web was ever spun.

BITTINGER

There's something that's nice in the
homliest guy,
There's always a rainbow somewhere
in the sky,
There's room for a smile on every
ones face,
But frown never found a legitimate
place.
Snow-bound all last week, visitors
were few and news for the week, like
traffic, was at a stand still.
The mail service from this village
was interrupted on Monday of last
week by the snow storm, but the re-
manning days of the week had their
regular mail brought by sled and
team.
John J. Oester, of Keyser's Ridge,
was a caller among US one day last
week.
Hilleary Resi-, of near Jennings,
made a business trip to this settle
ment a few days ago.
Orville Kinsinger, of near Jennings,
was snow-bound in this neighbor-
hood all of last week.
Owners of local sugar camps are
utilizing the snow for hauling more
coal to their several camps on sleds.
The lowest temperature reported in
this vicinity last week was six de-
grees below zero, and that was plenty.
Miss Edna Wiley returned last
Wednesday from a few days visit
with relatives in Pittsburgh.
Mrs. Baker, principal of the village
school, was unable to get to her school
until the middle of the week.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1932-03-17

And now it comes out that the fell
low up on Evans Hill fancied he did
have a grudge against Ray Jones,
hence no eats.
Wonder if Ed Offutt is glad he
came back from Florida before the
winter is over?
An Ode to Snow
While Terrence Tamburini, Turk
Shartzer, Hugh Teets, Tom Compton
and Skip Liller were trying to get
out of the drift at Sebold's Turn on
that fateful Sunday trip to Pittsburgh
with the Boys Band, Turk jotted down
a few words while he was trying to
hold the wind from his ears:
The snow is falling thick and fast
And across these mountains sweeps a
blast
That would freeze you to the liver.
You can't go east, you can't go west
No matter if you try your best
You just stand there and SILVER.
The guy who wrote some time ago
That stuff about The Beautiful Snow
Was certainly full of prunes.
For this dernstuff blows through our
clothes
And forms icicles on our nose
And soaks our pantaloons.
After reading these lines, I sug-
gest, Turk, that you remain in the
meat business with Harry Miller, who
is a good boss.
