[jWlOME year> ago I met a man ulio s?'Hows:
"The boss issued a memorandum today wiili a lot of
new instructions. Some of them were 'til wet, ami 1 didn't
hesitate to tell him so. I shot a memo right back at him, and,
believe me, it was a hot one." ,
Said another man:
"I received my first business training under a wise old bank
official. One day a letter came in from a customer who made
unreasonable complaints and asked for an unwarranted favor.
"I sat up almost all night drafting an answer to that letter.
It was a beauty, and I took it in to the old man next morning
with pride. His head nodded approvingly-as he read it.
" 'You've put the case just right,' he said. 'The position
you have taken is based on sound banking principles; it states
our attitude with dignity and force.' All in all, it's a very
fine letter, and I congratulate you on it. Only, for Heaven's
sake, don't send it.'" 1
Afterwards, 1 learned that the man I first quoted was paid
$4,'KX) a year; the other is paid $40,000.
Like everv other man in business, 1 receive a certain number
of communications which are both unkind and unfair. Having
red hair and a naturally quick temper, I used to let such letters
hoist mv temperature considerably. Sometimes 1 carried them
around in my mind for several days, forming red hot phrases
in reply.
Now 1 play a much meaner trick on the writers. I do not
answer them at all. I can imagine one of my critics going
down to the front gate every morning to meet the postman,
looking eagerly for mv answer, thinking up what he will say
in his next outbiHFSt.
Day after day goes by, and no answer comes. The fire
that was to burn me up, burns him up instead.
This method of dealing with one's enemies is certainly not
Spectacular and maybe it is unmanly. If so. I can reply only
that as I grow older the glory of being spectacular appeals to
me less and less in comparison with the comfortable joys of
peace.
Life seems somehow too short for controversy, and much
of my income in these days is received not so much for what
I dp as for what I have learned not to do.
Patience, I have learned, is almost as important as work; t'
while judgment uniformly commands a much higher rate than
well intentioned activity.
What is judgment? you ask. Well, it's the little voice that
whispers: "That would be brilliant, but don't do it." Or,
**That's a smart fine; very smart indeed, liut, fur Heaven's
sake, don't send it."

DOCTOR
JOHN JOSEPH GAINES, M.D.
"ROUGHAGE."
We hear it, read it, sense it in the very air, "roughage." It s
the slogan of the swivel-chair patriot, whose colon has been on
a strike for the last twenty rubber-tired years. Treat 'em rough,
these tired, lazy-stuffed colons; just got to have roughage! -
Well, the prodigal son ate the husks which the swine didn t
take?and repented of his sins right away,?the first victory for
roughage, so to speak. Then he lost no time getting back to the
fatted calf?the smdoth diet.
Let's talk about bran?shorts, "tailings," husks of wheat, or
what have you ? The sort recommended by solemn physicians, smug
dietitians and artful manufacturers; and, let's talk sense.
I have not found one in twenty-five routine investigations,
upon whom bran had the least effect in obstinate constipation. I
have tested carefully in mv own case; I might as well have taken
that much Portland cement, so far as laxative effect was noticeable.
Sometimes I wonder how many pecks of bran one would have
to eat, to acquire a single grr.in of iron? And what form of iron.'
Possibly a trace of ferrous oxide?rust! There is as much iron in
a single Blaud pill as there is in a bushel of wheat bran,?so there.
One of the latest and best books I have found, condemns
"roughage" as a routine procedure in lazy colons?a practice that
may actually do serious harm,, and I agree most emphatically. The
"smooth diet" is far more rational to coax the wearv organ back
to normal function; I do not believe in whipping the tired horse
to restore his vigor.
If commercialism were taken out of this country, and our
people used real food and exercise instead of substitutes, we'd
live longer.

JESUS IN GETHSEMANE
Luke 22 39-* K _
Rev.SamtelD.Pnct.bg.
It is recorded by Mark,, following
the narration of the tvenU in the
upper room in whe" jj*
Passover was celebrated and the
Lord's Supper instituted, And
when they had sung a hymn they
went out unto the Mount of Olives.
Jesus knew about all that impended
and He would be ready for those
terrible events through strengthen
ing prayer. For this, purpose He
led His beloved disciples to the
Garden of Gethsemane.
Prayer is the great recourse when
there are problems to face and spir
* itual strength to be obtained.
Though Jesus would pray alone he
wanted Peter, James and John to
be near Him and invited them to
come further into the Garden. The
scene is best depicted by Hofmann's
gjcat painting of "Christ in Geth
semane." What was the "cup" that
Jesus prayed might pass from Him?
Surely He did not want to quit the
mission for which He came from
heaven to earth. Many think that
He was afraid that His strength,
both physical and spiritual, might
not hold out until all had been ac
complished. We know at least this
for a certainty: He prayed that the
will of the Father, not His personal
will might prevail.
The three close friends failed Him
These men sfept) and returned to
sleep though Jesus came thrice to
awaken them. The contest had been
won. however, by Jesus in His sol
itude as He faced the throne of God.
It is in such quiet places that we
win the big battles of life, rather
than in the open and when we
cannot do otherwise as the crowd
looks on. The greatest decisions
are made when we are thus alone
with God. Then Judas comes to
the place where He knew Jesus had
an altar of prayer and gives the
