BEYOND THIS DOOR
Just a whiff of cinnamon and all
the tropics come
Trooping to my kitchen where the
kettle sings.
Geisha girls in samite, weaving to
its hjim;
Jungle beast and sandalwood and
furtive creeping things.
Laden camels lurching, bound for
Singapore,
Crawling serpent-wise black
against the sand.
Parakeets and cedarwood, betel nut
and ore,
Balm and spikenard from distant
Samarkand.
Dusky damsels leaning lithe
against a plinth,
flarti-colored peacocks, casks of
golden wine,
Jasmine tea and ivory, fans and
terebinth—
«
Just a dash of cinnamon and all
the East is mine!

MANNS HOME FROM FLORIDA
VACATION
Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Mann re
turned Monday from a week’s va
cation in Florida. On the trip they
drove 2050 miles. The first night
was spent in Savannah, Ga., the
next in Miami. From there they
went to West*Palm Beach, Palm
Beach, and Arcadia. One hotel in
Miami charges $25.00 per night,
but Mr. Mann said they did not
spend most of their time there!
In driving across the state they
drove 150 miles and passed three
small towns and about three hous
es along the way. He said though
the wind was blowing all the time
yet the sun shone hot. The nights
were cool and pleasant.
At one place they stopped and
helped a man gather oranges for
four hours, using step ladders.
After gathering them, the oranges
were washed and dried before be
ing packed in crates. They may be
bought at the orchard for SI.OO per
bushel.
This was the Mann’s first trip
to Florida. While enjoyable, Mr.
Mann says he likes the mountains
much better. Much of the journey
is too monotonous, being quite
like parts of Eastern Carolina, only
few houses are seen and little
farming done.

A FEW VERSES ON TITHING
(By Mrs. T. Y. PURYEAR)
We have a lesson next Sunday
on tithing. lam glad for us to
have this, for there are so many
that do not believe in tithing.
There are such a few of us that
give a tenth of all we have. The
way I understand the Bible is what
we give over a tenth would be our
free will offereing.
Read Leviticus 27:30—“and all
the tithers of the land whether of
the seed of the land or of the fruit
of the tree is the Lord’s.”
To keep back the tithe was called
robbery and brought a curse. Read
Malachi 3:8-13. Some will say well
that is from the Old Testament.
Well, we understand that the New
Testament was made in the midst
of circumstances and religious
customs that came from the Old
Testament. The New Testament
teaches proportionate giving, each
man giving as he may prosper. 1
Cor. 16:2. In Malachi 3:10 “Bring
ye all the tithes into the store
house that there may be meat in
mine house. And prove me now here
with saith the I-ord of hosts if I
will not open you the windows of
heaven and pour you out a blessing
that there shall not be room
enough to receive it.”
In Luke 6:3B—Give and it shall
be given unto you. Good measure
pressed down and shaken together
and running over, shall men give
into your bosom. For with the same
measure that ye mite withal it
shall be measured to you again.
In our lesson next Sunday, Feb.
12, we are assured that all we give
in the proper spirit will bring rich j
returns. The life that we have
grows richer through sharing.
The gifts that count most can
not be bought with money. They
are *uch as only Christians can
give and they must come from
hearts of faith and love.
Why I am writing this is because
there are so many people who will
read a paper instead of the Sun
day School lesson, sometimes for
curiosity, so I am asking all who
read this to please read carefully
the lesson for Feb. 12. I only name
a few verses about tithing, there
are many mofe; just read your
Bible.

proved by 33 per cent of the vot
ers of the nation in the Gallnp
poll.
In Washington, where Mrs.
Roosevelt is included in the “local
news,” the First Lady is rated
much higher. It is a conservative
estimate that Mrs. Roosevelt
would get 90 per cent in her
“home town,” irrespective of the
fact that her famous husband
wouldn’t do nearly as well.
The National Capital appears to
regard Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt
as the most outstanding “First
Lady” in our country's history.
