The stack of dishes is evidence,
Gods very good to us"
And SO. my friends, when you
dining room table after partaking
of that three or four course
Thanksgiving dinner and a bit
later survey that tell-tale stack of
dirty dishes, do not approachA
your task Of washing them dis
gruntled and in a spirit of rebel
lion. Rather think of the millions.
in the world who are poorly fed
or even hungry, who would do your.
dishes with a song in their hearts
if they could only soil some dishes
with sufficient food to still the
pangs of hunger for themselves
and for their children Think of
this at this season and of the graf
itude that you owe a gracious Fa-
ther in heaven that He has made
such bountiful provision for your
needs. Then make this years
Thanksgiving Day a time when
you will truly and deeply thank
must He think if you fail to do
this. To stress this thought l
bring this bit of verse:
''If you were God and God were
you,
And He were given Thanksgiving
Day
To go to church to praise and
pray,
And then He feasted and stayed
away
Without a thought of you or
prayer
OF thanks for all your loving
care
IF YOU WE'RE GOD AND
GOD WE'RE YOU,
SAY-WHAT WOULD YOU
DO?
"If you were God and God were
you,
And a nation set a day for pray
But only one had time to spare
For every hundred that didn't
Would you believe they were sin
cere
And bless that nation again next
year?
IF YOU WE'RE GOD AND
GOD WE'RE YOU,
SAY WHAT WOULD YOU
| Do?
"If you were God and God were
you,
And millions professed a faith in
you
AS giver of all good gifts and
true
But never said thanks or thought
it due,
But then when trouble came their
way
| Expected your help without de-
| lay
II YOU WE'RE GOD AND
GOD WE'RE YOU,
SAY-WHAT WOULD YOU
DO?"

Don't Worry About
Forsighfed Children

A moderate amount of far
sightedness may be considered
normal" in children during
early school years. Vision Con-
servation Institute, Inc, nom
profit research and educational
organization, reports that if a
child is not farsighted when
he starts school, he is more
likely to develop more serious
visual handicaps in his teens.
This report stems from opto-
metric research, which found
that farsightedness appears to
act as a cushion against the
natural growth tendency of the
eyes of a child, which could
make. him nearsighted by the
time he reaches the fourth or
fifth grade.
It must be pointed out that
with children there is a tre-
mendous increase in the amount
of close work performed when
they begin school.
The first three years of school
are generally associated with
the greatest change in a child's
eyesight. Closer visual screen
ing of youngsters during these
formative years could help in
crease not only the school eff
ficency of children, but could
detect visual handicaps which
may easily be corrected be-
fore their effects become seri-
GUS.
This special report, based on
studies made under the aus
pices Of Vision Conservation
Institute, Inc, at recognized
optometric institutions, found
that children with normal or
corrected vision nearly always
get passing grades and better.
On the other hand almost 1870
of those with vision problems
fail

thought of getting anything in re-
turn. It is necessary to have a
feeling of Thanks toward God all
year through and not just on
Thanksgiving day. 1t is not by our
own doing that we are born, who
we are, and where we are. Our
life is only loaned to us, and God
holds the mortgage. We should

Lists Steps In Storing
Power Mower

You can save lot of trouble
with your power mower next
spring by storing it properly this
fall, says George Vapaa, Kent coun-
ty agent. A little extra effort fol-
lowing the last trip around the
lawn will save time and maybe
some expense when you try to
start it again next spring
The agent lists these steps to
follow to insure a good running
mower when the grass starts to
grow again.
l. Drain tank by running engine
until the tank is dry.
2. With the engine still warm,
but with spark-plug-lead discon-
nected, drain the crankcase and
refill with fresh oil of good quality.
8. Now remove the spark plug
completely and pour one % ounce
of sac number 20 oil into the
cylinder. Spin the flywheel slowly
by hand to spread this oil. Then
replace the spark plug-dOn't for
get to seat its gasket.
4. Next remove the blower hous-
ing then clean all dirt and chaff
from cylinder head and fins. Do
a thorough job. Replace the blower
housing.
5. And the last one calls for
greasing of any bearings or fit
tings-the owners manual spots the
location of each of those vital
points.
If you let these jobs wait till
next spring, you're likely to find
rust and corrosion on the work
ing parts of the mower, and gum
deposits in the fuel filter, lines
and tank, Mr.. Vapaa includes.

Riding upon the magic carpet of
memory, in a happy spirit of rem
iniscence, | am letting my think
ing take me back to a vacation
spent in the hill country of Ohio
many years ago, when l was little
more than boy. Here, like a sill
YER ribbon drawn through a tapes
try of green hemlock and pine,
road winds its way from the place
of our sojourn in the valley to a
hilltop yonder where we must go
for supplies The automobile is
not yet in common use in this
area; the mountain roads are al
most impossible for motor trans
portatiOn. The trip must be made
by horse and buggy and it is made
with misgivings, for we fear the
horse may not be able to draw us
to the top 1t seems too long and
too steep a pull. However, the
road builders have reckOned with
this, and at intervals of approx
mately half a mile they have built
level places in the highway where
tugs may relax and horses may
stop and rest. Here, too, we have
opportunity to look back over the
way we have travelled and forward
to the span of road that lies ahead
The hill people living here call
these stopping place Thank You,
Mams," presumably to express the
gratitude of the horse for this
pause that refreshes" in its up
ward pull.
Associating this incident with
our thinking, we would note that
another national holiday, Thanks
giving Day, is again upon our
threshold. In it's basic meaning it
is a Thank You, Nam" day, a time
to pause and recognize with ap-
probation the goodness of God in
| providing SO abundantly for our
national and personal needs. 1t
| is to be regretted, however, that
| tragically few give such blessings
any thought. Many feel disgrunt-
| led because they have not receiv-
ed more l wish these would see
! and study the tragic picture of
| hunger and privation that is the
| common lot of many people all
over the world. How much better
is our lot than theirs! Our plates
are full with food, theirs are of
ten empty. This contrast between
our plenty and their want is tell
| ingly drawn in bit of anonymous
verse that came to my notice some
| time ago. 1t is titled DIRTY
| Dishes" and here are its lines:
| Thank :" God for dirty dishes, for
they have a tale to tell
And by the stack we have TO do
it seems we're living we'll.
| While people abroad are starving,
| haven't the heart to fuss;
