The majority of our trees

recent years, New Jersey has
annually marketed around l0O,-
600 trees.
Most of the trees for Christ

God means the state of things,
here on this earth or in heaven or
anywhere. where Gods royal will
is actually done. We have a right
to believe that in heaven God 5
will is the rule of life. On earth
God S will is the rule of life too,
only it is disobeyed perhaps more
often than it is obeyed.
In heaven all God children are
loyal; on earth some are disloyal
all the time, and even his loyal
children have their times of dis
loyalty. So what we are praying
for, if we say intelligently Thy
Kingdom come on earth as it is
in heaven, is that more and more
Gods will may be known, loved,
obeyed, carried out on this earth
Of ours.

The writer of q manual on
the subject Of business letters
tells us: There is no excuse for
ambiguity" How true. But
then he states: Every corre-
spondent in business cannot
hope to become notable letter
writer" If we are to concur
with that statement. then there
is no use for any of us to try
to improve; he plainly says that
every one is hopeless.
The fault in the sentence
quoted lies in the displacement
of the adverb mot" a common
error. Had he written, mot every
correspondent in business can
hope :" all would have been
we'll.
The primary aim of any type
Of communication is clarity: We
want to speak and write so that
others can understand what we
mean; otherwise, to use a cliche,
silence is golden"
"All of the gold is not in the
U. S." Not so, for much of it
is. Better: Not all the gold is

than are dreamed of in other coun-
tries. How can an American say that
he is willing to allow the Nations
children to attend overcrowded, poorly
stated schools in order to save SIS or
$40 a year?
Yet just that is happening as local
budgets are placed under magnifying
glasses during the search for possible
cuts. Since education absorbs about
so per cent of local funds, any appre-
ciable slash must come in school ap-
preparations.
The children are here. They must
be educated. Our school population

what indentationS in a coastline are Of
such character and magnitude as to
