RADIANT LIVING
Why Not Look Up?
By
REV. C. M. GRIFFITH
Cecilton, Md.
Cecilton, Md.

Have you ever noticed an odd thing
about drunkards, that they never look
up?
At least this is what certain
drunkard, when converted, declared:
"A drunkard,' he testified, never
looks up" Then he told his expert
ence how the night he was converted,
when he went out, he looked up and
saw the stars for the first time in
many years.
:, However. this may be, it is GER
tainly, true that evil does cast down.
ward glance into the eyes. AS though
by an invisible chain evil keeps the
eyes held down.
To break away from the snare of
evil, a man must break that down.
ward gaze. He must exert his utmost
strength and in one determined eff
fort, dare to look up. His courageous
looking-up may be merely an upward
glance of the eye. It may be de-
termination of his will. 1t may be q
prayer breathed in his heart.
This was the experience of the
Prodigal Son. His breaking away
from the degradation into which he
had fallen began when he dared to
look up by his determination: II will
arise and go to my father"
A daring upward look breaks the
spell of enslavement. It brings an up
ward lift to ones life. This upward
look is a prayer that enlists the inter.
est of God.
Just as your face, when uplifted tc
the sun is aglow with its golden rays
50 the upward glance of the heart
catches the glorious glow of the Div
he countenance. AS the Scriptures
declare: "They looked unto Him anC
were radiant"
In such an upward glance is caught
. vision of better life.

The woman who can successfully
make q nice fluffy omelet need never
be worried about the appearance of
unexpected company and what to give
them to eat. The ingredients for an
omelet are usually found in every
home, also the ingredients for nice
mixed salad-so, combining the two,
here is a light, yet filling and salts
fying meal for the most fastidious.
FLUFFY OMELET
4 egg whites
4 egg yolks
A tablespoons milk or water
liz teaspoon salt
1-2 teaspoon pepper
tablespoons grated cheese
/ tablespoon butter
Break the eggs carefully separa-
ting the whites from the yolks. If
any bits of yolk fall into the whites,
remove them, since they prevent the
whites from stiffening when beaten.
Beat the whites until they are just
stiff enough to hold their shape, not
dry, as over-beating causese them to
fail during cooking. Beat the yolks
until they are slightly thickened and
light colored; stir in the milk, salt,
pepper and cheese. Then add this yolk
mixture slowly to the whites, COM
bining the two with spoon and a
folding motion. Vigorous beating or
stirring should be avoided, as this will
drive out some of the air inclosed in
the whites. Better to undermix, leav-
ing few streaks of white not blend

Griddle cakes and waffle batters
are thin. Since they lump easily it is
often helpful to beat them with a ro-
