Clarke of GINGER FARM "| Every little while somgone thinks of a new definition of "the mean- est person", I was just wondering --would it be possible to think of a better illustration these days than that of one who borrows sugar or butter and "forgets" to pay it back? Most of us have had such an experience at some time or other, as housewives are nearly al- ways sympathetic towards one ano- ther, understanding full well what it means to be suddenly called upon to provide a meal for thresh- ers and perhaps have no way of getting extra supplies. "I can let you have sugar out of my canning ration and you can pay me back next week," Mrs. A. says to her neighbour, "That would be a help," says Mrs. B,, "thanks so much. I'll be sure to get it back to you in a day or two." * . . Well, it sometimes happens that the days slip into a week, and the wecks to a month, and still Mrs. A. is minus the sugar she loaned her neighbour, She doesn't like to. mention it to Mrs. B. because she is afraid Mrs. B. might feel badly to think she had forgotten to pay it back! Which just goes to prove Jiffy crochet to surprise even a beginner!

After all, forgetfulness is not a major sin, but just a very common failing, then why shouldn't one friend remind another if such precious things as butter or sugar are not returned within. a reason- able time. Surely no offence would be taken. If You had borrowed and forgotten to pay back, wouldn't you rather be reminded about it than risk a chance of your friend think- ing your apparent forgetfulness had been deliberately planned? Or if you should be the person who made the loan, wouldn't it be niore straightforward to remind your friend -- give her a chance to pay you back -- rather than let ugly suspicions of her intentions poison your mind against her? So many hurt feelings come about solely through misunderstandings. * * ¥ Lamy Comparisons ... I suppose they are all more or less dated. For in- stance we used to think -- "She would share her last crust of bread" was a pretty good description of generosity. Now we express our meaning better -if we say -- "She is so generous she would share her last card of bobby pins with you." Personally I don't measure up to that standard. If Daughter is at home I don't share my bobby 'pins -- I hide them! Maybe in a case of nccessity I might come across but generally I feel that she has a better opportunity to get pins than [ have, VOICE OF THE "PRESS SHADES OF "ARMENTEERS" As Canadian tégops move closer to battlefields made famous in the last war, many a soldier is prob- ably recciving letters from the Old Man back home, saying, "If you meet anyone who tells you any- thing about mie back in '17, she's lying."

PRINTED - TEXT, Matthew 4:1-4; 6:31-34; Luke 4:16-21, GOLDEN -TEXT.--Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4.4. Devotional Reading: Hebrews 2310-18. x Memory Verse: For thou, Je- hovah, hast made me glad. Psalm 02:4, } Triumph Over Temptation "Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil . , . but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God." The principle involved in'Christ's reply was that ° He would work no miracle to sat- isfy His own will. In self-denial He would follow God, submitting to His will, and trusting that His mighty power would help in the time of need in the way that His wisdom might see fit, God's Outward Blessing "Be not therefore anxious, say-- ing, What shall we eat? . ., and all these things shall be added un- to you." Our Lord says~that if men will really seck the kingdom of God and his righteousness all these material things, which the heathen nations seek exclusively and which are necessary for life, will be add- ed. As a rule, God's outward bless ing goes with the inward; and he who by patient industry has hone estly sought his daily bread has . found it. : * Please God To-Day "Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient un- 'to the day is the "evil thereof." Christ says 'to-morrow and all its wants will be provided for you by your heavenly Father; there- fore think of it without anxiety and try to do right and please God to-day. ' i Jesus In Nazareth "And he came "to: Nazareth, where he had been brought up ... to set at: liberty them that are bruised," From the word here: translated 'anointed' comes our English word 'Christ' which means literally 'the Anointed One', and thus the 'Sent One'. * The Acceptable Year 'To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord." This was the time when men--sinners broken, ruined, lawless, hopeless 'men--would be acceptable to God, if they would - believe in Christ "and accept His - way of grace. And the acceptable year of the Lord is not ended, Any man in the world to-day will be accepted of God if he will take Christ for his Saviour and allow' God to cleanse him from sin, The Scripture Fulfilled 2, "And he closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were' fastened on him. And he began to say unto them, To-day has this scripture been fulfilled in your ears." Jesus quietly announced that the prediction of the prophet Isaiah was that day fulfilled in Him be- fore their very eyes. The people doubted that this man, a carpenter's son, is the one of whom the pro- phet spoke, But Jesus reveals his profound sknowledge® of what they were ng to do and how they would reject Him, and He would go on to those who would accept Him, And Jesus immediately took - Himself out of their midst for His time had not yet come, Sapphires 'and Diamonds DOROTHY TROWBRIDGE "CHAPTER V Peggy found one of William's grandsons down by the gate wait- ing to open it for her. His little calico shirt tails flapped in the breeze above the patched pants that had once belonged to an older brother, His white teeth in their black setting shone in the sun- light. Ske waved the light whip towards him as she drove through the gates. Once on the highway Peggy drew a long breath and settled down to the business of thinking. "That's what I get for borrow- ing things," she muttered, remem- bering how she had always been taught never to borrow from any- one. There was only one thing to do. Stop at Carver's jewelry store and gee if the ring could be straight ened, She had no idea how long it would take. But she would go there immedfately, She had heard that since young Jim Carver had come home from college and gone into business with his father they had branched out considerably in the jewelry business. Perhaps that would include being able to straighten a platinum ring. . In spite of the many cars in Marshville, no one ever thought it strange to see Peggy Horton in the old pony cart, She had driven it ever since anyone could remem- ber seeing her about, and no one connected a Horton with anything but horses. There were still a few horse rails about the old square in the center of which stood a foun tain that had served as a drinking fount for the horses of former days, Now it was only a source of cool- ing beauty. Stores, bank, post of- fice, and the old wooden two-story "hotel surrounded the square on all four sides, the streets entering from - the corners, Peggy, stopping before the hitch- ing post that was the closest to Carver's, jumped out and tied Pat, exchanging . greetings with one or two people. as she did so, Then walking rapidly, she entered the store. ) She was glad to see that Jim Carver-was not there. He would probably have asked a lot of ques- tions. Old Mr. Carver, with his bald head bent closely over a book, was seated alone at the back of the store. "Why, hello, Miss Peggy," he called, coming forward to greet her, after carefully macking his place with a slip of paper between the pages. "How's your grand- mother? You ought to be mighty proud of her. There's nobody left around here like Miss Mary. I re- member--"' : : But Peggy had no time to listen to reminiscences, "She's quite well, thank yoi," : she interrupted. "Mr, Carver, [ wén- der. if you could straighten a ring for me? You see," she said reaching into her bag and hapding him the ring, "it belongs to a friend of mine who is visiting me, and in some way it got bent," Peggy did not prevaricate easily and she wonder= ed if her scarlet face were giving her away, Mr. Carver took the ring, eyeing it gravely while Peggy anxiously waited. "That certainly is a lovely ring," he said at last. "A girl with a ring like that ought to know better than to be careless with it. Well now, I reckon 1 can straighten it all. right for her." Peggy relaxed somewhat, "Could you do it this afternoon? Right away?" she asked, 'Mr, Carver looked at her over Easy Way To Treat Sore, Painful Piles Here Is the chance tor every per- son In Canada ayffering from aore, itching, painful piles to try a simple home remedy \with the promise of a reliable firm to refund the coat of the treatment ff you are mot satisfied with the resulta.

You all never will remember that Rome wasn't -built in a day. I reckon, "though, that I can do it. I'm not doing anything else right ndw. Might as well do this. Can you come back after a while?" Peggy came out of the store with her - heart singing. The ring was not ruined. It would be as good as new and she could have it on when she met Nancy. In spite of her knowledge that she should not bor- row, having borrowed it she might as well carry out Hrary's idea, she told herself, All seemed well now. She paused'a moment on the side- walk to look about her, deciding what to do next. Across the square before the hotel she saw several boys gathered about an auto- mobile. It was the car from Cali- fornia that she had seen that mora- ing. She wondered where its own- er. was, and why he was still in Marshville. There was nothing in' this sleepy little town to keep even a tourist, she reflected. = She went Into a candy store up near the corner' to get some of Nancy's favorite. candy then stop- ped in a drug store to buy some magazines and a soda, to kill a lit- 1 tle time before she should go back for the ring. At last she rose, and after paying her check started down the street. She was within a few. feet of Carver's when she heard rapid footsteph behind her and a voice cried: "Well, hello. Imagine seeing you. here!" Turning quickly she found her- self face to face with the Man from California, as she immediately termed him. Peggy eyed him cold- ly. 'He was tall, she realized;~and _broad shouldered. He wore a well- tailored light linen. suit which, con- trasted becomingly with 'his dark coloring, His almost black hair, which had been blowing in the breeze this morning, was now brushed neatly down, He had nice eyes, she found herself thinking, before she answered curtly: "I am neither a hitch-hiker nor a pick-up." . LON, 1 say," he began in some confusion. "I didn't mean it like that, I was so surprised at seeing you again just had to speak. Sort of talking aloud, I guess." "Yes, I understand," Peggy said pausing at the entrance 'of the jew- elry store. "There is another man here who talks to himself. He is about ninety and usually sits along here in the sun. The constable keeps an eye on him to. see that nothing happens to him, He prob- ably won't mind watching you too." (Continued Next Week) ~ one eyebrow raised SLEEPS ON THE JOB.
