LEST WE FORGET *Do you rememberwhat these goldei f days, the period between Thanksgiv­ ing and Christmas meant to you when you were a child? How that air ot mystery settled down over the hoipcl The whispering and planning, the «e- - crets and hidden packages? How the shop windows in the village atom held treasures that awakened n keen desire for possession'in your heart- How .eager you were to help with the chores and to please mother and fath­ er? How the jolly face of old Santa Claus smiled at you from the pages o f the magazines and newspapers? Christmas, the gayest, happiest holi­ day of all the year, was drawing near, and you lived in an atmosphere, o f an­ ticipation. ■ You are much older now ahd the myth o f Santa Claus has long been 'shattered. But let us not forget that the ruddy face- is just as inspiring to the little ones of today as he Was'to you once upon a time. Your Christ- . mas in the days of long ago wbuld have been a bleak and unhappy day*if it had not been for'the conspiracy of the elder folks in the home, who took you upon their knees and read" the wonderful story, "Twas the.night be­ fore Christmas,” The World is busier today than it was' when you were a child; the grown-ups have so much more to occupy their time and atten­ tion, but the joy of giving Christmas happiness to the little ones is as great today as it was in the dear dead days beyond tecll. You Will find .the same -sweet innoeeme, the same' beautiful belief in the jolly old elf, “ with Mjjhe little round belly, that shook wdiemdie laughed like A boWl full of into the game! Hake the children hap­ py1Pay the debt you owe to those who made yonr Christmas such'a won­ derful time when you were helpless and believed in faries. You may not be hero next Christmas, so make the best o f this one. ' A NEW INVENTION- Thomaa A, Edison says the next great invention will be the helicopter, Also ha has a novel plsu for the. re- Laf of the farmer which he avers is quite a simple matter. One half, of the population is working* in the soil and the other half is composed of man ufacturm t.nd middlemen. All the government needs to do, according to the inventor, is to Store foodstuffs as it stores gold today ami pass them out for use as needed. Cur mind, however, is attracted wore to the helicopter, that device which, when perfected, will enable I man to rise straight upward, from the ground, and remain at a stated latitude to hover there without mov­ ing hack and forth, or up or down. The farmer’s problem is one of economics. For some time we have been hearing about the government buying up the wheat and holding i t to create a stable market for the far­ mer. This solution may be all right and again it may toe wrong. The law of supply and demand must be taken mto consideration. It'cannot be ig­ nored, Once the government takes over a farm product next might be the cot­ ton crop, or the wool, One crop can not bo handled to the exclusion of the other. Then the .manufacturer would put in his claim that he too needs pro­ tection, and before we could realize it we would have a condition that ex­ ists In Russia today. The most important thing • that is a handicap to the farmer and his crop is the speculator. Crops fall into the hands of the gambling element. We jhave that situation now. At threshing time wheat was around a dollar- To­ day it is ’above $1.50 a bushel. If in­ dications point right it will go to $2.00 before many weeks. This does not improve the farmer’s condition for few of then have wheat to sell. What we need in this country is a different class of men in our leg­ islatures, state and national, men engaged in active successful business. Sixty per cent of our legislators were elected because they were good fellows or made wholesale promises to put over some reform or create a new. bureau that will Cost millions of the tax payers money to operate. Yes, the helicopter would be a great invention. It should be perfected and then hitch the cart-tail politicians, •job creating reformers and other pap- puckers to it and shoot them straight up in the air and give them perman­ ent residence in etherial. space. We heed the helicopter. The farmer needs relief but he will never get it with a legislative bpdy that is controlled by so-called up-lifters—up-lifters for their own selfish gain. iBffeOVBD DWaKHtMWTttMATMHAL GOVERNOR VIC * * D HEADED Baraca Bible Classes Baraca is the name of a world-wide organization of young .men’s Bible classes, The word is from the He Wow **bernkah,’' meaning blessing- The f’arnca classes were first organized In tlse BOVs and now number several thou­ sand in 80 or 40 different denomina­ tions, A similar organization of young women’s Bible classes is called Philo- tliea.

"abode in the same place” because He "loved Lazarus and his sisters.” Mere human sympathy would have moved Him to hasten to the home of trouble, but Divine love,- which rests upon per, feet knowledge, caused Him to tarry.. 4, Jesus Meets Martha and Mary (vv, 20-87). Martha and Mary knew the peril to which He would he exposed and there­ fore ,flld not request that He come, but merely gave Him notice. They were willing that His coming should.be left to Him. (1) Mprtha Met JesuS (vv. 20-27). As lie was nearing the village, Martha, who with her sister had passed through the awful ordeal of the sick­ ness and "death of a dear brother, met Him with a complaint for His delay. Because of His love He ignored her complaint and taught her concerning the resurrection and life, Martha, like many today, had a vague Delict that God would raise Lazarus some time In the remote future. To her earn' the compelling declaration, “I'am- the . >s- 'tttrcction, and the life.” The great (ruth to be apprehended Is that here and now we ate united to the living Christ, the source of life, aild that this is the pledge of bodily resurrec­ tion and eternal reunion, (2) Mary Met Jesus (vv. 28-35). Mary came With the same words, but with a different voice and attitude, She'fell down at His feet. She had been sitting at Ills feet Iti the days of sunshine. Therefore she knew where to go when sorrows cast their shadows across her path. Her words were ffh- sweyefl by His tears, “Jeans wept,’,’ II, The Resurrection of Lazarus (vv. 38-44). The great .sympathy now expresses Itself in supernatural power. Sym­ pathy would be valueless without Its connection with divine power.
