Iid have been EDIBLE ANDPOTSONOUS MUSHROOMS (Experimental Farms Note) Mushrooms and toadstools are included under the collective term fungi." There is a widespread misapprehension concern ing the character of the fleshy fungi. The public generally classify them under two main divisions-toadstools and mushrooms, the latter only being considered edible, and embracing the several varieties of the mushroom commonly exposed for sale and found in fields during the late summer and fxili. All varieties outside of these are popularly called toadstools and -avoided as bring poisonous. The question is frequently askecl how can one distinguish aAmush- room" from a toadstool.' 'I'here are hundreds of kinds of mushrooms. most of which are edible, and but a few poisonous. |.u.uuu1a null }.ll)\V8F. Nevertheless" the thought of Christ is growing -and gaining sway. Men are not so easily dazzled as they once were with titles and rank and outward symbols of power. Not alone the Church as a body, but many other organizations are taking as their ideal Christ s ideal, and their standard of `greatness the standard of service. ,-Ser- vice. not Self; He profits Most Who Ser- ves Best. The motto of the Rotary Club is in `practice the motto of many another club and society. and all these. whether they. take the name of Ohristian or not. are helping the Church of Christ to hasten. the coming of that time when the title Grea.t" will no longer be given to con- ` querors and tyrants, but to those self-for getful men and women who, like their! Master. WentAbout. Doing Good." This is the One Standard of Greatness. ac: V cuu. How slow has theworld been ingrasping this thought of Christ! Theoretically the Church has'alwa_vs held it. Pra.ctically it has often fallen far below that ideal. Some ' in the Church have `always lived it, and the Church has never been without num- bers of men and women whose one ideal of greatness was that of service. But because the Church is composed of fallible men. many in it have fallen for the world s' ideal of greatness and worshipped wealth and honors and power`.

They apply the title Great" not to kings and princes whohave labored for the peace and pros- perity, happiness and security of their people, but to those who, like Alexander of Macedonia, Peter of Russia, Frederick of Prusia and Napoleon of France, have built their empires on the corpses of their subjects, and. have made them- selves famous or infamous through the blood_and tears of humanity. In his day men called Louis XIV` of France Le grand monarquef: For what reason? He it was who said, when someone mentioned the welfare of the sate; L etat, c`est moi."---`,`I am the state." And for the glory of that I, for the grati- fication of that vain-glorious self. his sev- enty-two years of reign` left his people in starvation, his country bankrupt, and the land denuded of men slain in his ceaseless wars. If Germany had won the late war, and its ruler had reigned today as Emperor of Eiirope and Lord of the Lands beyond the Seas, the egotistical maniac who is now sawing saplings `in `a Dutch grove would have been known to posterity as William the Great. Why? Because he would have causedto be slain some ten Br twenty millions of people, and would have ground under a tyrant s heel the remainder who mou-rned for those who were slain. nvnr unndnnl `L:n no-.....:..I .....I l'_I__ 2.1., son of as poor village parson._ With the exception of short spells of study in Lon- don, he spent all his life as a country doc- tor in the village where `he was born. On one occasion he refused `an appointment in 'London worth $50,000 per annum that hei might remain in his little village and pro- secute his studies and discoveries. Yet that humble village doctor saved far more lives than Napoleon destroyed, and touched and blessed millions who never heard th name of Napoleon. He was Edward Jenner, the man who discovered `vaccination as a means to fight the frightful plague of small-pox which was decimating humanity . He died in his country village at seventy- ~ ,four years of age, -two years after Napoleon ~ died on St. Helena, and poor peasants in Russia put up his ik"on among the images of their saints, and yellow and brown people in far India and, China were ready to include him in the pantheon of their gods. Jenner is a. type of the man whom Jesus calls great. He served his fellowmen. 1 .1 , vu cauu5 Jwuu 1uupiu'uulIIa`.

L31 In the latter part of the eighteenth cen- and the early years of the nineteenth there lived in Europe two men who stand at the opposite poles of what is looked upon ' as greatness. One was born twenty years beiore the other, "and died two years after his younger contemporary. Look at the latter first. Born to humble rank in the year 1769, he rose to be the absolute ruler of the greatest military nation of his ` time, master of almost the whole of Eur- ODO. dictator of the destinies of "every Eur- opean nation except Britain and Russia, and dreamer of yet far greater fields of conquest in the Far East and the Far Wat. - Dying at fifty-two years of age` he left the marks of ravage and burning from Scandinavia to Italy, from Portugal to Ruaia, from the shores of Britain to those of Egypt and Syria, and the fields of al- most every country in Europe whitened with the bones of the multitudes of men he had caused to be slain. Napoleon is the type of man whom most men -in this world call great. LL- 'l`lu. ' 1...-.. .'...` 1-un l\`!'nII an-an -nna 4 I
