On Jane 17th and 18th at Mapleyille and June 19th and 20th at Ingleiide a cooking school of two daya d oration will be conducted under the auspices of the Betterment Association. The director of the Farmers Insti tutes has made this possible by agreeing to send out one of tbeir demonstrators to do this work. An examination of the program will show jt to be an enlargement of the plan of instruction pursued by the wo men workers in the regular" Farmers Institutes. The increase in the amount of time at the disposal ot the demon strator will make it possible to have an organized class which will actually go through the processes of breadmaking and manipulating the fireless cooker under the direction of the teacher. The meetings will be held in the school house and all the women of the community are cordially invited to at tend. Mrs. Charles McKimmon has done much work of this kind in different parts of the state yery snccesafully.

For several months past our Study Circle baa been using as its text-book, '?Aliens or Americans?" by Howard B. Grose. Our lesson next Monday will be a review of this book, which we have found intensely interesting. To some of us, at leaat it has been a revelation of need, of opportunity, of responsibil ity?a reyelation we should loye to know had been made to every Christian man and woman of our country. The vast number, of immigrants that has been landed on our shores during the past two decades is well nigh ap palling; they have literally come by the million. Some of them are desirable; some are not. The author says, "Im migration may be regarded as a peril or a providence, an ogre or an obliga tion ? according to the point of view. The christian ought to see in it the unmistakable hand of God opening wide the door of evangelistic opportunity. As a home mission God is sending the ends of the earth to our shores and very doors." And Joiiah Strong tells us that "most of those who come are predisposed in favor of our institution They are open to American influence and quickly respond to a new and be ter environment." The same autho seys that "whether immigrants remai A iens or become Americans depends less on them than on oureelves. " Now then, the need is theirs; the op portunity is ours; the responsibility is ours, ? how shall we meet it? Unim proved, we suffer together with them as individuals, as a nation; improved, it stands for Christian citizenship and the conservation of our national ideals. Let us not think because we, the members of this society and community, are not in personal touch with these thronging millions, we have no part in them. We can pray, and ' 'More things have been wrought by prayer than this world dreams of." We can give, if only a mite, and He who multiplied the loaves and fishes can multiply and bless the gift till it "accomplish that whereunto he hath appointed it." There is no need so re mote 1>nt that, by way of the Throne, we may touch it. At our meeting yesterday some ques tions relating to Social Service were discussed. Of this, we ahall speak later. Budded on Earth to Bloom In Heaven. "God giveth and God taketh away." On December 23, 1912, God gave to Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Vaughao of Hen derson, N. C., the care of a little life. I1 or six months and nine days they watched and cared for it, then their car* was finished. Just at dawn June 2,' 1913 the angels came to the home of J. C. Hight, near Franklinton. claimed the little grand son Thomas Louis Vaughan, and took the spirit back to him who gave it. "With dulcet whispers they soothed his pain, and bore him to the heavenly plain. Where congregate the rait angelic train:" Now we know His bright face shines in a mansion built by God's own hand. Dear life complete, however brief, fresh as the fragrance of the roses, how could earth bind you captive here? i You must find a fairer country. We! would not call thee' back, the great eternal bides in his own law, should his decree of order and of majesty be set aside for us? This little soul has gone on its flight into eternity, making its pass by a light of hope. Lead bv this light, we place our human trnst in something that will guide us to the realms of day, that our souls may survive the dving of our dust. t Hop*. Fire at Sprint Hope.
