Devotional Thoughts Bettering Bad Bargains \ou are looking over the pur chase you have made at the Bar gain Counter of life. It does not fit. But why harden your heart with stoicism, when you might soften it with Christianity and so take up a better attitude toward life? Divine Providence has not yet shown any inclination to an ticipate heaven on this earth. All earthly bargains have some de fects in them. There is no dairy without its spilt milk. The pes simistic will make the calamity worse by adding his tears to the overturned pail; the optimist will reflect that milk irrigates the grass or washes the floor and will start in to fill another pail. Nobody ever knew how many bargains were bad until the divorce courts opened their doors. Women are said to be experts at bargain ing and marrying. Then how are we to account for the number of packages marked: “return”,—“un suitable”, in the matrimonial mar ket? Before the days of divorce people made the best of what they had. They did not begin to add up defects the very moment lace and orange blossoms were laid aside for gingham and spinach. They kept their eyes riveted on the good points of their bargain un til they got used to the had ones. If the cloth was poor, the cut was good. If the sewing was botched the buttons were lovely. When hus band and wife compared bargains, they saw that defects were balanc ed. If the shoe pinches, the last above is not always guilty; the foot may be at fault through size or sensitiveness. A shoemaker may be needed or a chiropodist, or a little patience. Matrimony is hea ven in the days of courtship, but Si^mpatbv flotes Pfc. James H. Jeffreys The body of Pfc. James H. Jef freys, Nash county soldier who lost his life in the Korean War and who was awarded posthum ously the Silver Star medal for gallantry in action, was laid to rest July 27, 1951 with full military honors in the new veteran’s plot in Pineview Cemetery.

Walker, 67, farmer of Castalia, were con ducted from the Johnson Funeral Home, July 26, 1951. Burial was in the Forest Hill cemetery at Nashville. He was the brother of Harry Walker (Engineering).

Clo hessy; four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren also sur vive. The funeral was held July 30, 1951 from the home. after marriage it becomes a means of winning a higher place in hea ven. The man or woman who can not make the best of what they have until death do them part, are too particular to be inhabitants of this earth. On the other hand some folks are so adept in making the best of a bad bargain that they exult over its very defects. They find music in a sigh, rainbows in tears and pleasure in pain. They have a very good precedent for this way of thinking, and they are acting upon excellent authority. Who was it that found mourning blessed and hunger blessed and persecution and reviling blessed? It was He who at the market place of men made the worst possible purchase and yet turned it into the best. Who from death and disgrace made life and glory—Jesus Christ. Rev. Charles B.
