What memo ries It brings to thousands of men and women r crowded cities as well as in the open country. The spirit of making, others happy Is abroad In the land. At this happy time when oar main objective Is to add to the joy of the Christmas season for our boys and girls may we not also take stock of the kind of permanent ser vice we are giving our children in providing for their future wclftne and happiness, espeelally for their education? Houses and lands. inone.v and jewels may be of temporary en durance. Good health, a tr lined mind, and a sound, moral inherit ance are treasures stored where moth can not enter nor rust dsetroy. The best Christmas gift any .’.oinmu- nity can give its children Is an effi cient school, one which assures in so far as It is humanly possible the spiritual and Intellectual training that prefiares them for the "good life." School trustees and parents, why not, when you go to the Christmas program at your schoolhouse, look about you carefully, see that the school building Is sanitary, comfort able. and convenient for Us purpose? Desks must be occupied five hours a day by school children; eyes mint he used day after day; sanitary conven iences should be adequate. If those things are not satisfactory the chil dren need a new school building for a Christmas present. The Christmas vacation is a good time to make necessary repairs, to remodel unsuit able buildings, or to arouse .senti ment for a new one. THE RURAL SCHOOL LIBRARY IN WINTER. Now is the time for the teacher to make the very best use of the rural school library. It is useless to expect much reading in rural com munities during the active farming months, but In the long evenings of whiter there are two or three hours after supper that country folk have for leisure. Parents and children will welcome good books and m.aga- glnes. The many fine books of ani mal .stories are especially lntere.stlng and appropiate now. The hunting seasons are on and through the natu ral interest aroused in wild life, there is an opportunity to teach the hoys and girls about the animals of their own and other corntrles, kind ness to all folk of forest and field, and a better way of treating our wild friends than killing them. The holiday seasons bring with them special and charming editions of old books that will tempt'children to read when they otherwise would not. as well as large numbers of new and worth-while books and stories. In the winter, too, the Congress Is usually in session and people’s minds are most easily turned toward ques tions of national and state-wide in terest. There Is better opportunity to teach good citizenship, patriotism and loyalty through well-selected timely articles on current thought and movements. Moreover, In rural sections such local governmental ac tivitles as grand Jury and county meetings, sessions of county courts, and meetings of tax-levying bodies are usually held in the winter time when the farmers are not so busy, and the rural library may he well used to give help and Information along these lines of civic duty. It might not prove a had Idea for each school in the county to sub scribe for several copies of the county paper. There Is nothing so worth while as keeping the young folks posted on their county’s af fairs. GIVE THE CHILD AN EVEN CHANCE. At the recent Country Life Con ference held In St. Louis, a moving picture film was shown of a farm boy and his prize flock of chickens. The flim demonstrated that the birds were flne because the boy had a scientific knowledge of chicken cul ture, and that he had applied his knowledge to the care of his flock. But the boy himself was a mouth- breather and showed further effects of malnutnitlon. The tragic thing about the picture was that the chickens were having a better chance than the boy. The Idea of encouraging farm chil dren to raise thoroughbred poultry and livestock Is wholesome. It should be promoted to a greater de- AGREED TO, WITH AMENDMENT. The St. Pauls Review, owned and edited by a lady, affirms as follows: “Whon any person holding a posi tion with salary paid by the public, and so far forgets himself as to fall to bo courteous to the same public that pays his salary—ho ought to resign." Please, in.a’am, and will you allow IKS to amend by inserting between I ho words "to" and “resign” the words "ho made to”?

Showing that the weal- their counties think publicity is a mighty fine thing for working out public school problems. The For syth school paper is gotten out by Miss Cordelia Camp, sister ot Miss Manic Camp of Harnett. As rural supervisor in Forsyth, Miss Camp is making the task easier for the edu cation board by harmonizing the individual efforts through the me dium of publicity. Achievement can best be applauded and emulated by others when it is brought before them in co.iipnrlson.

The mozt memorable church supper •Bd social that has occurred In years In a certain town In the middle west took place last winter. The town is a rural community In the center of a farming territory of considerable ex tent Because of the scattered population the ohnrch supper ts one of the annual occasions when everybody meets ev erybody el*e and a whole year’s sup ply of fosalp Is exchanged in the coarse of a single evening. More tlinn that, however, the supper enjoys a big reputation. And when the last one was announced the whole countryelde planned to be on hand. When the farmers began driving to, shortly after dork, they wore amasad npon coming in sight of the church to perceive a blaze of light pouring out ot every window. Out in one comer of the churchyard a little gasoline en gine was chugging away, and inside, suspended from various points about the building, were a number of gleam ing electric lights, replacing the bat tery of kerosene lamps with which the ehnroh had previously been lighted. The curious farm folk soon discov^ ered the "8ysteroi"-~a self-contained. farm electric light and power plant, consisting of the gasoline engine, an electric generator, the necessary wis ing and the Mazda lamps. It was a contribution to the success of the so cial by the town’s electrical supply agent, and it certainly made a hit The whole church was filled with the brightness of the lights, and the so cial atmosphere was greatly increased thereby. Two plans for the review are sug gested; 1. The Summary MethocL Tlih? will be to lift out the umln facts of each lesson and state the loading teaching thereof. The following brief state- mentb are snggesteil: Lesson 1. God oiilled Abraham out from his country and kihdred to make him the head of the nation through which the Redeemer wis to come. 'I'lio' leading lesson Is that God blesses men and nations In order that they may be a blessing. This is tlic universal low of the spiritual realm. Lesson 2. Israel was given an exalt ed, posUlon In order that she~.might make'God known to the nations. The message they were directed to proclaim was that God was the Savior of all the nations. . Lesson 3. Israel’s geographical posi tion afforded the best opportunity to carry the Gospel to the whole world. She was llteially in the center of the world. Special privilege carries with It special responsibility. Leeton 4. The burden of the message of the prophets was that God Is great in mercy to all the nations,when they penitently turn to Him from their sins, ■Lessoi^ 6.' Strong drink works great i-uln to all.. The only way to escape this ruin is'to totally abstatu from its use; LMBon 6. The Psalter, the hymn book of the Jewish n'ntDn, has' as Its central message the Spirit of God’s .grace to tlic world. Us aim Is to call men back to God. Lesson 7. Jesus Christ was the pre eminent missionary. His compassion for the multitude moved Him to send forth laborers In His vineyard. Tlie missionary message to the lost world Is that tlirough Uie sacrificial death of Christ salvation‘is offered to all. Lesson 8. Christ saved men In order that they might go to tlie lost world with the message of His salvation. Those who have experienced His sav ing power will go forth to tell others. Lesson 9. 'The Holy Spirit Is the pow er which ^vlll enable the disciples of Christ to witness His salvation. He will not only'enable them to witness, but to endure afflictions and trials. Lesson. 10. The Gospol was Intended for all the world. God In His provi dence permits persecutions and strife to scatter the disciples In order that they might witness. Lesson 11. In spite of opposition, Paul preached the Gospel In the capi tal city of Rome.. He was not' asliamcd to proclaim It there, for It was the power of God. Lesson 12, Christ will come and es tablish His kingdom over the whole earth. Peace and righteousness shall then cover the wliole earth, II. The Question Method. These questions should be assigned to the members of the class the previous week. The following samples are given In Peloubet’s Select Notes: 1. What were the missionary charac teristics of Abraham? 2. What was God’s missionary pur pose for Israel? 8. What In Israel’s geographical sit uation made It easy to bo a missionary nation? 4, What was the missionary teaching of Jonah? 6. What is the missionary teaching of Israel? 6. Quote a missionary verse of some Psalm. 7. Name some particulars in which Christ was the Ideal missionary. 9. Why should every Christian be a missionary? 9. Whence came the missionary pow er of the early church? 10. Describe the gradual outreach of , the early church. 11. 'IVhy must Christian missions cover the earth? 12. What will Christ’s universal reign do for mankind? The Lord Knoweth Them. In the lack of all human recognition, surely the Lord knoweth them that are His. His great heart of love will go out to them, till He has done for tlmm exceedingly abundantly above all that they ask or think.—S. F. Smiley, The RI(»dgo to Us. The cross of Christ Is the pledge to us that the deepest suffering may be the condition of the lilghsst bless ing; the sign, not of God’s displeasure, but of His widest and -most compu^ slonate love.~DeBn Stanley., Decision.

This line is to be built under the Joint supervision ot offl'clals of the Northern States Power Company aud reprosentrtive farmers. Members of the faculty ot the Minnesota Agricul tural College will act as advisers'.' Is to Study All Cost Iteni'e The representatives of these three groups will comprise a Joint commit tee, which will have at Its coutmaud all coete of labor, material an(J con struction of the proposed line. In addi tion, the committee wilt have under Its supervision the costa of operation of the line when built. Including the costs «r maintenance and depreciation." The Joint committoe has already ap proved a basis ot charges which have been agreed upon as fair to both the power company an^ the farmers. The general plan Involves a com plete survey of power farming, espe cially farming with electric power. 7'jiis survey will show, it la hoped, wl)ether or not electric power lines for farmers will produce sufficient odditlonal doU^s on tho tann to pay their own way. Thus far, the Joint committee sees three main advantages of electrlo power on farms. These are, first, con- venlsnce In lighting bouse and barns; second, labor saving for both the farm er and bis wife, including devices which would ease the burdens of both, yet would not produce more money nor save money, and devices which wou^ do away with household help for the wife and hired help for ary, 86 cents more per hen, or |I6 more for the entire hen-house. R Is'also considered as proven that an electrically driven cream separator, gets more cream and leaves less to the hogs; that dairy cattle with free miming water give more milk, and' that beef cattle under similar condi tions give more and better beef. The trial transmlsston line Is how being constructed frbm Red Wing, Minnesota,'five miles Into the country .and may be extended an additional three miles. It is a 2800 volt line, car ried on treated poles. Uso of Current Encouraged The charges are so worked out as to encourage the farmers to use elec tric power plentifully rather than nig gardly. Tho more they use, the less It will cost per kilowatt hour. Hence there will be no feeling in the farmer’s mind that he must economize in the use of electricity. This the Joint ram- nilttee' believes will eliminate one the greatest obstacles in the extensive use of electricity by farmers. James F, Reed, president of the Min nesota Farm Bureau Federation, Is chairman of the Joint committee of seven, and other members are W. C. Coffey, dean of the Minnesota A/rlgul- tnrai College, Charles F. Stuart, assist-, ant to the general manager of the Northern States Power Company, C. S. Kennedy, of the Ottertall Power Company.
