% s$G# # %Y i the job all right, but it sometimes takes time to work out.
 It is perfectly proper for us to ask God to- do things for us,. or to help us. He is our Father and He likes to help us, but it isn't at all proper for us to insist that He do them RIGHT NOW, and do them our way. He expects us to do as the Texas cattlemen and take lit tie time to work things out, and He expects us to do our part to help work out the plan. If we are not willing to do things Gods way, who are we to tell our Creator that He must do them our way? An old Chinese proverb says, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step" You take the steps, and ask God to give you the strength to keep going and to guide your feet in the way.

A British Citizen

The answer was because
James had become a British
!. citizen. This he did when the
u &.usitania was torpedoed in
1l915. He was firm for a declara-
tion Of war by Wilson, so when
nothing was done he changed
his citizenship-and, like Walt
Whitman during the Civil War,
stepped out Of his ivory tower
and went from hospital to hos
pital comforting the wounded
and giving all his time TO chari-
ties that bolstered morale.
James said of Theodore Roose-
welt that he was just "a noise"
and that Woodrow Wilson was
aware OF nothing" A mouth
full in five words.
There Is no doubt that grief,
caused by the human cataStro-
phes OF the war, killed Henry
James, just as IL did Rerny de
Gournont, another supreme
artist.
