entirely effacing herself.
Through her love and pa
tience, clearing first a mental
and emotional road for the
child's mind, which is so
closely linked to her own that
mother and daughter carry
on whole conversations by
just a glance, a smile.
I MOVED over to say good
l. by to Mrs. Temple. She
was gracious, sweet. There
was a rest for a second, and
Shirley dashed over. Her
dancing, laughing eyes shone
up into my face just as if she
were about to ask a question,
then decided I wouldn't un-
derstand anyway.
"Good-by, Shirley" I said.
Before the child had time
to answer, the voice from the
the floor beloved, "Off with
her head" I looked down at
the card. The queens face
was purple because I had
stepped on it. Shirley's eyes
followed mine. just then an
electrician aned down,
picked up the queen and put
her in with the rest of the
pack.
The little girl and I looked
at each other again. And we
laughed. I wondered if some
how she had heard the bad
tempered old dame yelling at
me. There was no answer to
that, but as Shirley Temple
gazed at me with shining
eyes, I felt a spirit that is
not adult. And yet, I mused
as I walked off the set, if it's
the spirit one usually finds in
an 8-year-old, then I'm the
flaming flamingo that Alice
used in the croquet game.
1t was a spirit so crystal
clear, so shining, sweet and
guileless, that | know it has
come from the 'Never Never"
land. And that is why I feel
that of all the writer's I know,
Lewis Carroll alone could
have rightly told the world of
Shirley Temple.

In the last issue Of the cooperator appeared two
letters presenting similar problems. essentially
obiecting to the fact that stores by not offer
ing certain commodities losing business that
could be theirs.
In considering this problem should first
alize that Greenbelt's stores will try and
never should try to get all Greenbelt's business.
We shall probably never deal in pianos. to take
extreme example. though it is very possible that
two Of residents may buy pianos.
The problem stores must decide is what goods
services they should supply, and what goods and
services they could not supply.
The problem is complicated by the fact that the
capital available is limited. think will all
agree this capital should be invested where it
will bring the greatest return. Thus the question
arises to whether it should be devoted to in
creased stock in the Variety Store. Mr.. Sherry
suggests; to Bakery. Mr.. Dunbar suggests;
or to an additi onal gas pump at the Branchville
crossing. as Mr.. Carroll has suggested; to
truck for purchasing food store supplies as Mr..
Atkins has suggested; to hot house for raising
plants as the Garden Club has suggested; or to a
garage; to mi TX distribution; to numbers Of
other ventures.

is the native dialect spoken by the

The dialect is a strange mixture
of native dialect and Elizabethan

pierced through with the sword of
sorrow. Yet though Roman and
Jew, disciple and kinsman, might
turn against him, there she stood
by the cross, her own heart still
true to her Son. He, on the other
hand, with the weight Of the
world upon him, looked and saw
his mother with John the disciple
standing by her side. To Mary,
he said, Woman, behold thy son"
referring to John. To John, he
said, "Behold thy other"-refer-
ring to Mary. They understood
what he meant, and from that
hour John the beloved disciple
took Mary, the mother of Jesus,
to his home probably there in the
city of Jerusalem where tits said
she resided until her death some
years after the CrucifiXion.
THE COMMANDMENT FOR
EPHESUS (Ephesians 6:l.4)
FOR THE CHURCH at Ephesus
the Fifth Commandment was ex-
planned and enforced by. Paul. The
mutual responsibilities of parents
and children are set forth. %
The duties of children to parents
are based on both parental right
and religious conviction. The spir-
it of obedience must always be
present. The act of obedience is
not only governed by spiritual
motive (being in the Lord) but
also limited to the will of the
Lord in case of parental impiety
in commanding children to do
wickedly. The reason for obedi
ence is simply that it is right, as
conscience and scripture bear
witness. The fruit of obedience is
honor to father and mother, for
nothing else can wreathe quite so
bright halo about their heads.
And the reward of Obedience is
that individually and as people
the obedient live long and it is
generally we'll with them while
they live. ~ The duties of par
ents to children are urged both
negatively and positively. On the
one hand, fathers in maintaining
good family government must not
provoke their children to wrath
by word or deed, by neglect or
nagging, for they should concili-
ate as they correct and not irri-
tate as they, inflict anything punt
tive. On the other hand, they
should demonstrate that godly dis
cipline which includes the chas-
tening that corrects any evil and
the admonition that stimulates and
encourages every good impulse
and effort.
