raised his right hand in a gesture
to stop, which she obeyed instantly,
without knowing the reason for the
signal. The child's Obedience saved
her from being struck by the train.
Her parents, who witnessed the incl
dent, gave thanks to the Father OF
US all for His law of love.
The Scriptures are rich in prom
ises of blessings to those obedient to
the voice of God. jeremiah records
God as saying (7:28, "This thing
commanded / them, saying, Obey my
voice, and will be your God, and
We shall be my people: and walk ye
in all the ways that have command
ed you, that it may be well unto
you"
Habit tends to govern our acts.
1t we have formed habits of obedi-
ence to Gods laws they lead us
Alright, while lawlessness leads to
trouble. In Miscellaneous Writ
ings" Mrs. Eddy tells US (p. IT'D,
"God is the fountain Of light, and he
illumines ones way when one is
obedient,"
Christ Jesus, our Way-shower, has
set us an infallible example in mis-
answering obedience to the Faith
er's laws, and his positive refusal to
accept as law that which enslaves
men, namely, sin, sickness, and
death. His adherence to Gods law
was also manifested in obedience TO
civil law, as, for instance, when he
paid the tax or tribute money found
ir the fish's mouth. Realizing the
need of being both humanity and
spiritually law-abiding, he said
mark 12:17), Render to Caesar
the things that are Caesars, and to
God the things that are Gods"
1t is vastly important for US TO
know what are the laws to which we
are yielding obedience, for as Paul
says, Know ye not, that to whom ye
yield yourselves servants to obey,
his servants ye are to whom ye obey;
whether of sin unto death, or Of
obedience unto righteousness" The
children Of Israel were commanded
to partake Of the mama which fell
daily for their use, but when In dis
obedience they tried to store some,
1t spoiled. Many lessons are given to
US in the Scriptures of the results of
Gods protection of the obedient, and
also Of the dire results which befell
the disobedient. In mo and Yes"

Obedience

~ ERHAPS there Is no mental
- quality more necessary to the
l. happiness, health, prosperity,
peace of mind, and success of the
human race than obedience. Har-
mony is the proof of obedience to
Gods law, while discord is the result
OF disobedience to His law. The hap
piest homes are those wherein the
Golden Rule is obeyed, where the
children are taught to be obedient
through love, and where the elders
set an example of obedience to d.
vine Principle, God, good.
A little child who has been rightly
taught to obey God, will obey his
parents and his school teachers, and
will have little trouble later In lie
ir observing the rules or regulations
of his college or university. This
habit of obedience will be of tnesti-
mable value to him in his business
career; and he will seldom be found
disregarding the traffic laws or the
civil laws of his city, state, or county.
In the Christian Science textbook,

Scriptures, Mary Baker Eddy writes
(p. 1887: "Divine Mind rightly de-
rlands mans entire obedience, affec-
ton, and strength. No reservation
is made for any lesser loyalty. ODE
dience to Truth gives man power and
strength" If we observe closely, we
shall find that the great and good
characters in history, and all who
have achieved true success, have
been obedient to their highest sense
OF good, and have prospered; for, as
the Bible declares (Isaiah 1919,
at We be willing and obedient, ye
shall eat the good of the land"
Humility and obedience go hand
in hand. The latter often serves as a
protection from subtle evils. An ex-
ample of this is shown in the follow
ing incident. A little girl who from
the cradle had been taught, through
love. to obey her parents instantly.
was romping with dog in field
through which ran the main line OF
one of the transcontinental railroads.
The father, who was on the opposite
side of the track, called to her to
come to him, which she started to
do. Just as she was reaching the
track, he suddenly discovered the
fast approaching limited, which was
hidden from her view by building.

TWO LANE ROADS TO BE BUILT
WIDER

Two-lane roads built under the
present State Roads Commission in
future will be % feet wide, instead
OF 20, according to an announcement
made at the Office of the Commission,
An additional margin of safety was
given as the principal objective in
the change of specifications.
Pointing to the large number OF
head-on collisions, sideswipes and
collisions with fixed objects of the
road, the Commissions statement
held that these accidents are clear
indictment of too-narrow roads
Records Of the Commissioner OF
Motor Vehicles show that of 4S fatal
accidents in November, eight were
head-on collisions, two were side
swipes and six were caused by cars
striking fixed objects.
Nationally recognized formulae
call for two-lane roads where traffic
volumes average 1000 or more We.
hicles q day." said the enhancement
"They call for more than two lanes
where volumes are in excess of A..
900 cars q day on an average.
There are few Of Maryland's pri
mary roads which carry fewer than
1000 cars day, yet we have only q
few miles of highways of more than
two lanes. Many of >our primary
highways are but Is feet wide, and
there are some that are only 16 feet
wide.
"It is hoped that the State may be
able to widen its major traffic arteries
20 fit them to the traffic they carry
but meanwhile, where it is necessary
to build two-lane roads. they will be
20 feet wide. Thus it is hoped thai
we will be able to provide an add.
tional margin of safety and conven'
aenre."

roads 10 expected to be placed before
the legislature within the next few
days.

iod will bring tests of your judgment
in personal and occupational, social
affectional, and budget matters
However, conservative plans in &C.

Old matters can be complicated
Hard work, endurance, rapid opera
ton, ambition, and mastery could
carry the day.

Mars represents endeavor, expression
action, effort to obtain greater partic-
ipation in the socilized organization
Anthony Eden, British Foreign Min

which could prove disastrous. Either
Hitler or Stain cenld start something
Great Britain would be drawn into

FIRE PREVENTION SHOULD BE-
GIN AT HOME

Although fire insurance on farm
buildings is accepted as desirable
and necessary protection, fire proven
zion should be a part of the program
IN every farm. Fire insurance may
partially compensate for losses but
valuable and highly priced furniture,
records and livestock representing
years of careful selection can never
DE replaced. Fire prevention is their
only safeguard.
According to Ray w. Carpenter,
specialist in agricultural engineering
for the University of Maryland Elk
tension Service, periodic inspection
of the farm and farm home wiring
system will aid in locating incipient
hazards and all oily rags and waste.
polishing cloths, varnish, paint, oil
and gasoline supplies should be stor-
ed in metal containers, preferably In
small structures apart from the main
buildings.
Trash, dried grass, and brush
shoul be cleared away from between
buildings so as not to provide fire
path from bonfires. Where lanterns
are used, harness snap is recon-
mended TO be fastened to the bail so
that the lantern can be snapped. to :.
wire strung tightly along the ceiling
of the barn. This will permit NOV
ing the lantern from place to place
and is much safer than nails or
shelves.

carelessness when smoking frequent.
ly cause fire, it is pointed out by Mr..
Carpenter. A metal box placed on
the outside of the barn wall at the
door with sign requesting smokers
to leave pipes, cigars and cigarettes
in the box will prove an effective re-
hinder.

The number of peach trees in
Maryland of both bearing and nom
bearing age declined considerably
from 1880 to 1885. In 1880 the ag-
ricultural census reported s94,48S
peach trees in the state and in 1885
only 65S,161 trees were reported.
More than normal numbers of peach
trees not of bearing age are reported
in Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Caro-
line, Frederick and Somerset coun-
ties.

Early figures show that in 1886 a
otal of 275 miles of electric line
we're built in the state and 1920
.ural homes were connected. In ad-
lition, a total of $50 rural families
we're connected with already existing
lines.
According to Albert V. Krewatch,
specialist in agricultural engineering
or the University of Maryland Ex-
tension Service, this makes total OF
1000 farms and $4,000 rural resi-
dents of the state who are receiving
high line electric service.

SOIL BUILDING PRACTICES AN
NoUNCED FOR THIS YEAR

Rates of payment for soil building
practices in 1887, together with other
provisions of the 1887 agricultural
conservation program for Maryland,
have been approved by the Secretary
of Agriculture, it is announced by
Dr.. T. B. Symons, Director Of the
University of Maryland extension
service.
Farmers will be paid for diverting
land from soil depicting crops to soil
building crops at about the same rate
as they were paid in 1885, DR.. Sym
ons states, except that the maximum
diversion from the Maryland tobacco
baes for which payment will be made
is 25 per cent in 1897 instead of 80
per cent as in 1896.
soil-building payments are made
for carrying out certain practices, and
are in addition to diversion payments.
The maximum amount that can be
earned in that way is called the "soil
building allowance" just as last
year.
On farms eligible to earn diver
sion payment, the soil-building allow
ance will be $1.OO times the number
of acres of soil conserving crops
grown normally, plus the number OF
acres diverted from soil depicting
bases in 1897. The soil-building al
lowance on farms not eligible to earn
diversion payment will include
s1.OO time seach acre of cropland.
The soil building allowance for all
farms, whether eligible for diversion
payments or not, will include: S1.OO
for each acre of commercial orchards
on the farm January /, 1887; $500
for each acre on which only one crop
of commercial vegetables were grown
in 1896; and rs cents for each acre
of fenced, non-crop, open pasture
land in excess of onehalf of the num-
Der of acres of cropland on the farm
Payment will be made for planting
approved seeds of legumes and per-
ennial grasses at the rate OF $2.5O
per acre for alfalfa; $500 per acre
for red clover, mammoth clover, ser
icea, kudzu and bluegrass; $1.5O FOL
each acre of Austrian winter peas,
vetch, crimson clover, alsike clover,
sweet clover, annual lespedeza and
orchard grass; and $1.O9 per acre
for white clover, bur clover, crota-
lariia, red-top and timothy. Rates
of payments for mixtures will depend
upon the kind and quality of legumes
and grasses in the mixture.
Payments are provided for ploW-
ing or disking under number Oh
crops as green manure after they
have attained normal growth of at
least two months, or for leaving OIL
the land certain of these crops grown
in 1897. These payments vary from
s1.O0 to $500 per acre.
For planting forest trees payment
will be made at the rate of $3.50 per
acre when planted on crop land, ana
at the rate of $500 per acre on Other
land. A payment of $3.50 per acre
for thinning to develop desirable
species of forest trees is provided, il
approved in advance by the county
committee.
Payments for applying ground
limestone will be based upon the
number of tons applied, father than
the acres covered. Two differeni
rates of payments will be made i'll
Maryland, depending upon the cost
of limestone in the respective coun-
ties.
Other practices for which payment
will be made include the application
of superphosphate and potash, ano
terracing of the land to prevent ero-
sion.

The number Of milk cows on Mary
land farms reached its highest point
on January /, 1895, and has been de-

may be expected to decline for two
more years, as many farmers who
shifted from cash grain to dairying
are shifting back to cash grain again.

Iy done with the fourth and fifth
doses, so that as a matter Of fact,
eight doses are given by many
physicians and reactions are very
largely avoided.
It appears to be effective in
about 80 per cent of cases, and the
immunization is partially COM
pleted very rapidly, approximately
at the third dose.
Curative Treatment Effective
The same thing can be said OF
the serum for curative treatment.
This antitoxin has also been very
greatly improved by work at many
laboratories. It is much smaller
in bulk than the old amount OF
antitoxin used, and much more
effective. 1t should be given as
early in the disease as possible.
It's principal value consists in It's
ability to reduce complications.
COMPLICATIONS of scarlet fever.
such as infection of the ear, throat,
eyes, and possibly skin assesses,
are among its most distressing
features.
One health officer says, There
are few complications in patients
receiving serum. A favorable er-
feet on complications is evidenced
by lessened severity and duration
as we'll as incidence"
A favorable opinion OF this
serum has been expressed by the
American Academy of Pediatrics,
the membership of which consists
CT very conservative children's spe-
cialists, so that we may feel that
this opinion is well based.
/ think that parents at the
present time might be glad to
know of these developments in or

clans in combating the present

down his last trump, so led clubs.
East ruffed the third round and led
his last trump, which South won,
cashed his two remaining clubs and
then fnessed the spade Q, which
lost to East's spade K. The dia-
mond Ace was now cashed, setting
the contract.
When the third diamond lead
was made, South had very simple
way of making his contract by re-
fusing to trump. If on this lead he
discarded his losing spade, fourth
round of diamonds could have been
trumped in the dummy, or any
other return could have been won.
Played in this way, South could
