ARE YOU IN THE RIGHT
PLACE?
No man is in his place so long as
he is out of the church. To say
that a man can be as good outside
as inside the church is absurd. As
well might one say that a man who
continuously neglects his civic du
ties is as good a citizen as the man
who performs them. Man is a
home-seeking animal and he mars
his life if he is not loyal to the
home. He is a political animal and
he curtails his life if he is not
faithful to the state. He is a
religious animal and if he holds
aloof from the church he starves
and stunts the highest instincts of
his nature.

Blackie Bear
AND BILLIE HAD A BIRTHDAY
Story 83
As soon as Mr. Man and Hee
Haw got out of sight of Billie's
house he put on his best coat and
a red tie and started out for Black
ie's house. Jay Bird didn't tell
him anything about what they
were going to have for dinner ex
cept Mrs. Man's turnovers, and he
didn't know what in the world they
were. But he knew that Jacko
Monkey took them, and he never
had seen Jocko bring in anything
that wasn't good to eat.
When he got to Blackie's house
it looked like there Was going to be
a sure enough dinner party, for
there was Howler bringing a table
out of the house, and Dr. Coon was
showing him where to put it on the
grass. Blackie was back in the
smoke-house, and Jay Bird was
with him, and nobody knew what
they were up to. Blackie and Jay
Bird had been in there a good deal
lately, and sometines Jocko had
been with them, but Billie hadn't
been in at all, nor had Who-Who
Owl, or Chatter Squirrel nor any
body else.
I don't know whether I ever told
you that there was a great big tub
in Mr. Man's wagon that night
when Jocko drove it away from
Cool Spring, but there was, and
Blackie took it but and left it there,
for he expected to need it when he
came back, and he knew that Bettie
would never let him bring it away
from Mountain House if he ever
took it there. Blackie and Jocko
had filled the tub up with persim
mons and potato peelings and wa
ter, to make persimmon beer, as I
just told you, they didn't tell Billie
about it, for if thejMiad he would
have worried them almost to death
to get some of it before it was
ready to drink.
Then, too, they wanted to give
him a big surprise for .his birthday,
for they knew just how happy he
would bp to pet it, and the creek
folks were all the time trying to
make each other happy. Blackie
really never did have as good time
as when he was sitting at the head
of the table and piling good things
on the plates of his friends. And
he knew that he was going to hand
out a lot of happiness today, so he
was happy.
Jocko spread the cloth on the
table, put the plates and spoons and
things on, and then he brought a
lot of tin cups and put them around
at the plates.
"What are you going to put in
these cups?" asked Billie Possum,
when he couldn't hold his curiosity
about the dinner any longer.
"Just some water from the
Creek," said Jocko, "just some wa
ter from the Creek."
Then Jocko brought out the bask
et of turnovers that Mrs. Man made
for them the day before, It looked
like Mrs. Man never would get
through paying Blackie for makfrig
Mr. Man Bave all that donkey mon
ey. Uertainiy sne maae some
mighty nice turnovers for him, and
Jocko put the basket right in front
of Blackie's place at the head oi
the table. And then he put on some
big red apples the reddest one at
Jay Bird's place, for Jay Bird was
almost foolishly fond of red ap
ples. ;;
Blackie and Dr, Coon would come
in and out of the smoke house, but
every time they came out they
would shut the door, and so Billie
didn't even see what they were
doing. V-
After a while Jocko seemed to
have everything on the table and
he stood off and looked at it. Yes,
it was all right and everything was
on it except oh, well, let's wait
and see. So Blackie took his seat
at the head of the table, and, just
as he always did, he piled up every
body's plate. They went along
with their dinner and had a good
time. Jocko told several funny
funny stories that made Billie
laugh so that he could hardly eat

J, Ross Eakin, superintendent of

his dinner, and even sober old Who
Who had to grin a little.
"What did you put these cups
here for T" asked Blackie.
"Oh, I nearly forgot something,"
aid Jocko, and he got up and went
to the smoke house and bought out
a great big bucket of persimmon
beer I He filled all the cups, and
then passed around the turnovers.
Talk about good desserts t Well,
Billie said that was the best in
the world, and Blackie told him he
was glad he liked it, for he had
been working on that beer for a
week or more so as to have it for
Billie's birthday. And then Billie
stood up in his chair and clapped
his hands and said "Three cheers
for Blackie Bear." And the cheers
were given.
