The men did not mind the hunting or fishing because it gave them an excuse to get away from their nagging wives and crying children. Clothes were generally made by the women of the household. The hand-made clothes were al most like having tailor-made ones. Everything fitted perfectly be cause it was pre-fitted. Man}' lucky women had the privilege of weaving their own cloth. , WC111H.U.

To these, people usually brought their families and had a picnic. The lit tle children had a chance to play with the other boys and girls of the community. The young people had a chance to court, and the older people caught up on the latest gossip. All was fine and they had few worries. Of course they were not satisfied.

Is not man a part of nature al though he delights in feeling him self above the sucklings of mother earth? He tramples this love be neath the feet of tyranny and hate; he clips its branches and hides it from the sun. He gloats in dark ness and seeks to hide from the light of good; but he too exper iences love He too seeks love. Often he loses himself in his search for satisfaction and com plete fulfillment, and the one true goal becomes crushed beneath the feet of ambition. He is to be pitied, not reproached; he is lost, not evil; he is alone, not content. Can he yet be saved, restored brought again to the noble path? Yes, for all men are essentially the same with the same needs, hopes and desires. These needs are more prominent in some, but they are the same in all. Man needs recognition, acceptance, praise and securit}’. Most of all he needs love, for through love he has all needs. Just as a violet inclines its head to the daisy, so must man incline his heart to his neighbor. Just as the arms of trees inter twine, so must nations and races become intertwined. Just as the sucklings of mother earth live from day to day only to lift their faces to the sun, so must man stand continually pre pared to look upon the face of the Creator. V went.
