MIRROR MEDITATION My darling little daughter, with each day of spring, radiates such wonderment at her little flowers as they burst forth from mother earth to take shape and form. Her amazement brings happiness to all around her, when she marv els at the beauty of the buds and Ihe flowers in their fragrant maj esty. How can anyone doubt there is a God Who in his handiwork created so many beautiful things? There seems to be no end to His all-perfect design of life in all forms. The little flower that in its continuity of design has no brain, just follows a set pattern of course. For its fragrance to be caught, and its beauty entrusted to a single glance is its purpose. The same God made little girls and little kittens. Why should they wither and waste away? Or can the answer to spring time be liken ed unto the Resurrection? For as each tree, each plant, each flower, each blade of grass lies dormant in wait for new life^ to spring forth, does not Christianity when sprinkled on man’s inner being bring forth new life, new beauty and new purpose? * * ♦ * What is time, has it always ex isted? Was there a beginning? Is there an end? Where does man fit in? Are we a toy or experiment of the Creator? Will there still be a consciousness in the next dimen sion where we shall pass? Have faith, for these reasons man must turn to God or he shall lose his in heritance. And surely he would lose his purpose of existence.

Combine together: 4% cups ground cutumbers, 3 cups ground onions, 3V2 cups chopped celery, 2 chopped green peppers, and 2 chopped red peppers. Add % cup salt and 1 quart water. Let stand overnight. Mix 1 quart white vinegar, cups sugar, 2 tsp. celery seed, and 2 tsp. mustard seed. Heat to boil ing. Add vegetables, simmer 10 minutes. Seal in hot sterilized jars. Makes 6 pints. Mrs. Williams also gave us a recipe for pickled cucumbers that many of you will want to use since cucumbers are so plentiful right now. Slice 4 quarts of cucumbers and 6 medium white onions. Mix thor oughly and let stand 30 minutes. Prepare vinegar mixture, using 5 cups sugar, 5 cups vinegar and 4 tsp. pickling spices. Bring to a boil and add-cucumbers and on ions.
