Poets Corner
What Faith Does
0
Faith came singing into my room,
And other guests took flight;
Fear and anxiety, grief and gloom
Sped out into the night.
I wondered that such peace could
be,
But Faith said gently, “Don’t you
see,
They really cannot live with me ”
—Copied.
The Valley of Silence
“Go thou into the silence: there
shalt thou find thy true self . • .
and God.
o
I
I walked down the valley of si
lence,
Down the dim, voiceless valley
alone;
And I heard not the fall of a foot
step
Around me, save God’s and my
own;
And the hush of my heart was as
holy
As hovers where angels have
flown.
II
Long ago I was weary of voices.
Whose music my heart could not
win;
Long ago I was weary of noises,
That fretted my soul with their
din;
Long ago I was weary of places
Where I met but the mortal or
sin.
111
I walked the world with
the worldly.
But T craved what the world nev
er gave;
And I said: “In the world each
ideal,
That shines like a star on life’s
wave,
Is found on the shores of the
real,
And sleeps like a dream in a
grave.”

And still I pined for the perfect, ;
And still found the false with the
true— j
I sought, mid the human, for
heaven,
But caught a mere glimpse of it’s
blue;
And I wept when the clouds of the
mortal,
Veiled even the glimpse from my
view.
V
And I toiled on here, tired of the
human,
And moaned mid the masses of
men,
Till 1 knelt a while ago at an al
tar,
And heard a voice call me: —since
then
I’ve walked down the Valley of
Silence,
That lies far beyond mortal ken.
VI
Do you ask what I found in the
Valley?
’Tis my trysting place with the
Divine;
1 fell at the feet of the Holy
i And softly a voice said ‘‘Be Mine ;
, And there rose from the depths of
my spirit
An echo, “My heart shalt be
Thine.”
VII
Do you ask how I live in the Val
ley ?
I seek. I believe and I pray j
And my tears are as sweet as the
dewdrops
That fall on the roses in May;
And__ my prayers like perfume
from a censer,
Ascendeth to God, night and day.
VIII
In the hush of the Valley of Si
lence
T dream all the songs that I sing;
And the music floats down the
dim Valley,
Till each finds a word for a wing.
That to men like the dove of the
deluge,
The message of peace they may
bring.

The above is to be used as my
autobiography expressed in poe

OUR SHORT SERMON
o
My heart is glad and rejoices
for I have accepted God’s prom
ises to help me in every need.
We know that God loves us,
that it is our divine birthright to
be healthy and to have all the
comforts of life, but do we act
ually accept the promise “I . • .
will heal him,” do we actually de
pend on the promise “I will lead
him also, and restore comforts un
to him”?
Accepting God’s promises is
more than knowing these truths
with the mind • it is knowing
them with every cell and fiber
of our being, with every beat of
our heart. Accepting- God’s prom
ise of healing is to know- that His
life is our life and that we cannot
be anything other than strong,
vital, and well. Accepting God’s
promise of guidance and supply is
to know that He is the guiding
light of our life and that as we
look to Him we make only wise
and just decisions, that for every
need He has the supply.
Accepting God’s promises is
knowing that God and we are act
ually one.
I . . . will heal him: I will lead
him also, and restore comforts
unto him.—lsa. 57:18.

Sterilamp Proven
Poultry Health Aid
Lowers Mortality and
Ups Egg Production
By lessening the infectious organ- 1
isms in the air. diminishing fungus
and mold producing mycosis and
pneumonia, and by promoting S en ‘
arally better health, the ultraviolet
rays or sterilamp has become o
commercial value in the poultry
bouse.
Made of finger size, tubular pieces
pf quartz-like glass, these lamps
emit a selected band of ultraviolet

radiations in the bactericidal por
tion of the spectrum.
Tests have shown that irradiated
birds have a tendency to level out
the peaks and valleys of the egg
laying season with the gain reach
ing to 15 per cent, most of which
comes during the winter months.
The greatest use on the poultry
farm has been in the brooding of
chicks. It has been proven that not
only has mortality been greatly re
duced by the application of bac
tericidal lamps, but that vigor and
gain in weight of the chicks has
been materially improved.
Even when the lamps are kept op
erating over the roosts all night,
the hens rest perfectly, and gain in
general health. The lamps have
been given thorough tests on indi
vidual poultry farms and tests are
now being conducted at various
state experimental stations.
These invisible bullets of light,
sprayed by the sterilamp ultraviolet
tube, has given the poultry raiser a
new weapon to fight his present high
rate of mortality.

While a method of extracting sug
ar from sugar beets was discovered
by a German chem
t pn 1 ist in 1774, it was
I x<yr\ J not until 1870 that
the first successful
factory was built in
States.
A new hybrid
'UJagraL promising 20 per
cent increase in
yield, and the pill
form of sugar beet planting, prom
ises to place postwar sugar beet
raising on a profitable basis. The
pill's coating contains fertilizer and
insecticide, with the seed in the cen
ter.
Among the uses of sugar beets
and their by-products are galaetu
ronic acid, citric acid, carbonate of
lime, rubber, road base, bombs,
powder, plastics, penicillin base!
medicines, adhesives, alcohol, elec
trodes, castings, textile, varnishes,
radio tubes, and the Nazis made for
tification cement from the pulp.

Instead of tin can for permitting
water to drop on top of grindstone,
a casing that is water tight and
shaped so that the stone turns in
comparatively deep water, may be
utilized as shown.
Quick Blood-Building
By the feeding of abundant ribo
flavin or vitamin 82, in addition
to ample protein, iron, copper and
the B-complex vitamin known as py
ridoxine, it is possible to effect re
markably quick recovery from the
type of anemia of livestock caused
by hemorrhage, according to work
at the University of Wisconsin.
In the past, it has taken from six
to eight weeks to regenerate the
blood after hemorrhage, or even
after transfusion.

Michigan State Agricultural
College has this to say: Those w o
desire to protect trees from rab
hist may find that mixing seven
pounds of resin to one gallon of
ethyl alcohol will provide a mix
ture that will protect trees from
rabbits. The resin is pulverized
and mixed with the alcohol and
let stand for twenty-four hours in
a warm room. No heat should be
applied, as this not only is dang
erous but will drive off enough
alcohol to alter the composition of
the mixture. One gallon of this
has been found to be sufficient to
treat 150 to 200 two-year-old
trees and can be applied with a
small paint brush.
