honor, truth and faith, still -four
ishes in each and every one of us.
Much of it remains inarticulate and
unrealized and might. perhaps, die
within us did not the Redeemer, who
planned our eternal salvation, give
to us means by which the finer i'm
pulses of man would be continually
kept alive.
The greatest of these is music.
Eschewing all harshness of doctrine,
of pressure from man-made laws.
Of insistence on the preference of one
way of thought over another, it
operates in the most subtle fash
ion to the Divine desire of the bet
terment of mankind. 1t demands no
public acknowledgment of change
of heart, but accomplished its spirit

of the human soul Without re-
quiring the acquiescence of the in
dividual, it works its power gently
and artfully, taking advantage of
the slightest break in the armor of
indifference to insert its radiant

Once it's potency has been expert
enced. it remains a welcome factor
in the lives of its followers. It's

aloof from the ordinary trend of

the thread. strong and unbreakable,
that binds the humanity with its
angelic model.
Nobility Essential.
The speech of great music is
Incapable of unworthy utterance.
There must ever be nobility in its
thought, and tenderness in its ex-
preston. No evil can enter into it,
for it has its being in the finer
elements of the human heart and
receives its impulse from a sacred
source. 1t cannot be explained by

of new idea seeks expression it
finds the way, no matter how great
the departure from the customary.
The great composers recognized
the unexplainable character of their
talent and the holiness of their
calling. They are ready for every
sacrifice of personal desire that the
way of their inspiration would not
be obstructed, and the story of their
lives bears out their willingness to
be oblations on the altar of this
mysterious divinity. They knew also
that the wellspring of their creative
power lay in their spiritual develop
ment, in their ability to attune
themselves to the infinite source of
goodness and nobility, to see with
clearer sight into realms dimmed in
the vision of lesser gifted mortals.

left us are those fundamental ele-
ments of Christian doctrine-faith,

PATTERN 9124

This clever cotton frock has a
good mind for figures. It knows
just where to place the detail and
trimming in order to make the eye
travel up and down. Pattern 9124
is one of Marian Martins specials
for matronly women-a useful frock
that you'll wear all around for the
rest of summer and at home in
winter. Those nice skirt panels
which may be bias-cut, trim down
your hips, and the high-riding peaks
Of the waistline give you a smooth,
sleek tummy. See the attractive
front yokes, peaked to "ditto" the
waist seams. They come right across
the shoulders in one piece with the
back yoke-a real time saver.
Pattern 9124 may be ordered only
in women's sizes 81, 36, 38, 40, AZ,
IA, 46 and 48. Size 36 requires 3 1-2
