Peter Rabbit was what is called
absent-minded. When people are
thinking of something so hard that
they fail to hear when spoken to-,
or they do things without really
knowing what they are doing, they
are said to be absent-minded. That
is the way Peter was when he
reached the dear Old Briar Patch
after his talk with Tommy Tit the
Chickadee about Welcome Robin.
He was so absent-minded that lit
tie Mrs. Peter spoke to him three
times without making him hear.
Finally she bumped him on his
wabbly nose. He paid attention
then.

your hearing. Peter Rabbit" she
demanded. IF you can't hear any

A reader of Venezuela, South
America, writes: In Gone. With
the Wind page 1877, I have seen
in print for the first time in my
life the word croker (sack). It is
where Melaine fashions costumes of
croker sacks. What is the origin
of this Southern word?" O. B. K.
This coarse sacking is also vari-
ously known as tow, gunny Grom
the Hindu gonD, jute and burlap.
In Websters I find this item:
"Crocus sack. Southern United
States and West Indies. Origin
uncertain"
From personal observation in the
South I should give "croaker sack"
as the form that is most commonly
used.
Perhaps the term originated
along the gulf coast where it has
long been a common practice of
fishermen to bring home the catch
C'croakers"-sometimes crocuses-
are the most abundant of the pan
fishes in sacks, hence croaker
sacks.
If any reader has another theory
I should like to hear from him.
In croker or croaker the 20" Is
long as in toe.
Correct pronunciation: Kroe-ker.

questions about words, send a

I should be worried to death if I
thought you were going way over
there. Now forget Welcome Robin
until it is time for him to return" :"
But this was easier for her to say
than for Peter to do. He just
couldn't get Welcome Robin out of
his head. He puzzled and Puzzled
over the matter. He looked out
over the snow-covered Green Mead
ows to the glistening white trees of
the Green Forest. IF Welcome
Robin came back now he would
starve to DEATH" he muttered.

Large FIoxseed Crop

The largest domestic flaxseed crop
since 1930-based on acreage and
growth-has been reported by the
Agriculture Department. Production,
according to estimates of November
l, reached 2O,33OOOO bushels. Cash
income from flaxseed has been re-
latively small since 1880. Last year
only 8,171 900 bushels were harvest
ed. The division of flax culture
by States shows that Minnesota is
growing 1,241,000 acres; North Da-
kota. 504 900; South Dakota, $4,000;
Montana, 166 900; Iowa, $4,000; Cali

Study to shew thyself approved

from the Textbook, Science and
Health with Key to the Scriptures
by Mary Baker Eddy: The best
sermon ever preached is Truth
practised and demonstrated by the
destruction of sin, sickness, and
death. We cannot build safely on
false foundations. Truth makes a
new creature, in whom old things
pass away and "all things are be
come new" Passions, selfishness,
false appetites, hatred, fear, all
sensuality, yield to spiritually, and
the superabundance of being is on
the side of God, good.

Some Thoughts on
Murder

"AKE it from Leslie Ford
murder is downright unin-
teresting.
The fascinating part about it is
what leads up TO it and follows
afterward, says this well-known
author of countless mystery stories,
in ar issue of Good House
keeping Magazine. To her, the psy-
chology of the crime, the emotional
state of a human being, and the
dark labyrinth of guilt that such
a person must tread later are the
only really interesting aspects of a
murder.
Ordinary people, men and women
you dine and play bridge with,
rather than maniacs are the fas-
cinating murderers, according to
Miss Ford, because you can under
stand them. They represent a
powerful, compelling impulse that
lies dormant in all of US.
'I've never been able to decide
whether the murder that puts a
sharp and devastating end to some
thing is as interesting to me as the
tortuous and devious kind that is
itself a work of art" she says in
conclusion. But murder, as such
well, not for Leslie Ford.

Radiant Living
HIS UTMOST
FOR YOU
Bv Rev. G. M. Griffeth
Pastor Methodist Church
Cecilton, Md.

Have YOU ever entered deeply
into the truth that God is your
heavenly Father?
Oh that we could have joined
the throng that crowded about
the Christ as He sat there on the
green sloping fields of sunny Cali
lee and could have heard Him
teaching those spiritually hungry
people this great fundamental
truth
Recall how He said: IF We then
being evil, know how to give good
gifts unto your children, how much
more shall your Father which is in
heaven give things to them that
ask Him"
L am glad that Jesus has re-
vealed to us this blessed truth
of the Fatherhood of God because,
for those who are distressed in
heart, it is the starting point from
which to begin to think the way
out.
The right solution of every pro-
blem in life begins with the cor
rect conception of God. That cor
rect conception is this glorious
fact that God is your heavenly
father, He is doing His utmost to
help you.
Are you one of the many who
have met with bitter disappoint-
ments? Are you one whom the fu-
ture seems dark and forboding
Are you being swept down the
wild waters of unbelief toward
the whirlpool of utter despair?
1t is to you especially that Jesus
is throwing out this lifeline Of
truth.
"Oh distressed child" He is call
ing you, to you, "the mighty arm
of your heavenly Father is out
stretched toward you to rescue
you from your distress! Reach out
your hand Of courageous faith ant
grip the sustaining hand of YOU
heavenly Father!"
You shall find that His grace
is sufficient
