appointment in coming back, accord
ing to Mr.. Stevens, is his wife's
serious illness, which prevented her
return with him. 1t was for this rea-
son that he had remained in his ma

of Greece which he had visited, Mr..
Stevens reported that prices ARE
as high as they can get" but that
they are mo higher than here"
Whiskey is the cheapest commodity
on the market, selling for one dollar
a fifth, while nylon hose cost $40 a
pair. This is on the black market,
according to Mr.. Stevens.

On the particular island which he

Care Moy Avert Summer Misbops

Vacation emergencies which in the past have claimed tens
of thousands of lives may be lessened considerably by careful fore
thought in preparing them.
Important things to bear in mind in case of an accident,
according to an article in the June issue of Good Housekeeping
magazine are: call a doctor immediately; keep calm; speak quiet
ly; do not brighten the injured person; if you do not know the cor
rect procedure, do nothing. Keep the injured person lying flat,
and dc not move him unless he is in immediate danger from fire,
etc. Use common sense.
A first aid kit for emergency use on vacation is advisable.
The American Red Cross advises a first~aid kit that contains an
assortment of materials in standard packages of unit size with
enough applications and dressings for at least one injury. Refins
are obtainabe.
Always buy the best the article advises. "A kit should be
compact, convenient, easily transportable. Well-known manufac-
turers make various types and sizes suitable for travel and home
use"
AS many vacation accidents have happened in water, the
article contains eight simple rules in this connection. They are:
Children who can't swim should wear life preservers when
on a dock or in a boat. Persons who don't swim well should stay
out of canoes. Children should not go swimming unless a response
BILE person is nearby. For even moderate distance swims the swim
mer should be accompanied by a person in a boat. Children should
come out of the water Immediately if they are cold, blue or feel
sick. No one should swim during a thunderstorm. Don't dive in
strange waters. Know the waters depth and the condition of the
bottom. Children with sinus, nose, throat and ear complications
shouldn't dive. Ask a physicians advice about each child. Wait
two hours after a full meal before swimming.

helps the other" and through the
olive oil, prune, fishing and wine
industries, a sustaining economy is
enabled. According to Mr.. Stevens,
the educational system is perfect"
with a large number of special
schools which teach the English Ian
guage from the time the child enters
school. Sixty per cent of all native
Greeks speak English, he informed.
Mr.. Stevens himself learned to
speak English in America when he
first came here some-32 years ago.
He became a naturalized citizen
soon after coming to the United
States. He has lived in Lexington
for about l6 years.

GOSPEL TALKS

STRENGTH FOR THE DAY

lIhE1N1 IL ToIl LIE O<AI
"As thy days, so shall thy strength
be."-Deut. 1925
Each day makes its peculiar de-
mands upon u strength. Along
life's way we are faced with dis
couragement, pain, sickness, power
ty, temptation, bereavement and
death. Whatever kind of strength
is needed for the day, that kind will
be given. 'They that wait on the
Lord shall enc their strength"
-Isa40:31. The supply is as varied
as the needs of the day.
Strength is supplied as sure as
the day, No day shall come with
out its due measure of might to
enable us to meet its demands. Each
day shall bring with it sufficient
strength for that day. The strength
of each day will not serve the next.
But never will we find a day when
Gods grace is wanting.
This promise pledges strength as
long as our days shall last. So long
as any demands are made upon us,
so long will Gods grace be suffi-
cient to enable US to meet them
We need not be anxious about to-
morrow. Each day we live, we can
draw from the divine sources OF
strength.
Are you weak and heavy-laden?
Come unto me-" the Savior calls
land / will give you rest" God:
promise of strength sufficient fol
our days is conditioned only by ouI
coming to Him in our need ano
accepting from His hand forgiveness
