Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you. —Luke 10; 19. -O Now that the tax bill has been passed by Congress, we’ll just pay it or else. 0 Jimmy Walker should be given a medal, if he made a quarter million dollars on no in vestment at all. 0 Plenty of sweet girl graduates all over the country, not to men tion the crop of future ball players, getting diplomas now. And why not charge for seats in both the conven tions ..... they charge you in all other shows. O Those single-track mind sena tors in Washington may not pay much attention to Huey Long now, but they will before six vears of his term is out. -O Trying to keep those politi cians in Washington while the conventions are going on in Chicago, will be next to impos sible. -0 Only nine candidates for governor in the race at this time. That is a base ball squad, and maybe Dunning, will act as umpire. -0 You can’t strave a man if he owns a piece of land in this sec tion. There is hardly a month in the year that he cannot make something to eat. So plant, and keep on planting. O Among other things in Presi dent Hoover’s message-he said, ‘‘The natural wealth of this country is unimpaired and the inherent abilities of our people to meet their problems are being restrained by the failure of the government to act. Time is of the essence. Every day’s delay makes new wounds and extends them.” ■O-- Your Duty To Country Too many of our people are without the resourcefulness, and moral stamina that our pioneer forefathers had. This is being more than ever demonstrated in that Bonus March to Washing ton. Those fellows we fully realize are up against it, but are they any more so than the first settlers of America? Did it not take grit, determination, and fortitude then to overcome conditions worse than these? In stead of our country owing a debt, you owe it everything. -0 Arthur Brisbane says, “The world is paying for the great war, and this nation, as usual, is the chief paymaster.” The Man At The Wheel How much of the human brain is used in the process of driving a car? One famed psychologist has set it at just 5 per cent. In other words, it becomes as much an instinctive process, after a while, as walking or lighting a cigarette. But this is no reason why a driver should leave all his brains at home. The automobile is a marvel of efficiency. But there is no pos sible way of making it foolproof. Ten per cent more of wits in running it would reduce the highway slaughter to almost nothing. Perhaps there is no way of bringing it about. There are morons who make splendid drivers, and there are pienty of professors and high-powered thinkers who are unfit 'to be trusted even with a baby carri age. —Atlanta Georgian. GETTIN’ LICKED Got a lickin’ lTorn my Dad, Worst one I ever had, Claims I said words tllP.t were bad— But I didn’t! Though in tears I did protest, Dad just shed his coat and vest, Said, “Young man, it’s for the best”— But it wasn’t! Cut a limb from off the tree, Toughest limb that he could see, Said ’twould hurt him more than me— But it didn’t! Took me through the woodshed door, 'Vhere we’d often gone before, Laid it on till I was sore— Think I wasn’t! "W itll cl ftlCG theit looked Quito grim, He did wield that saplin’ limb, Till I wondered at his vim— Think I didn’t? How I howled with all my might, Even when the blows were light, Thought Ma’d made him quit from fright, ' But she didn’t \ When I left that gruesome shed, Eyes all tears—face all red, I remarked, “Wisht I was dead,” But I wasn’t! But I guess that, like as not, Every lickin’ that I got, Somehow seemed to hit the spot— Wisht it hadn’t. —Phil B.

His masters always attributed the quality of his character and the success of his work to the fact that the Lord was with him. I. Joseph Serving Potiphar (39:1- 30). 1. Sold to tlie Ishinaelites (37:2S). Joseph was sent by his father to his brethren on an errand of mercy. At the sight of Joseph the murderous envy of his brethren was stirred up. They first proposed to kill him in order to prevent his dreams from coming true. Finally the prudent suggestion of Judah to sell him pre vailed, and he was carried to Egypt and sold as a slave to Potiphar. 2. His prosperity, while a slave in Potiphar’s house (39:2-6). This pros perity consisted of: a. Being accorded the privilege of Potiphar’s house. By “house” is meant his private residence instead of fields or public buildings. b. He became Potiphar’s personal attendant (v. 4). c. He was made overseer of Pott pSmv’s house (v. 4). d. He brought prosperity to Poti phar (v. 5). The Lord biassed Poti phar for Joseph’s sake. e. He possessed an attractive per sonality (v. 6.) His fine physique and commanding personality were gifts from God. 3. His temptation (vv. 7-20). Potl phar’s wife became infatuated with this handsome slave. 1-Ie resisted Iter, unwilling to sin against his master and his God. II. Joseph Serving in Prison (39:21- 40:23). 1. Overseeing the prisoners (39:21- 40:4). Being defeated in her wicked purpose, Potiphar’s wife accused Jo seph falsely. Potiphar must not have really believed his wife’s story, or he would have put Joseph to death. He Imprisoned hint, Die least that was possible under the circumstances. a. The Lor(l gave him favor In the sight of the keeper of the prison (v. 21). This keeper was none other than Potiphar himself (40:3, cf. 39:1). It. He was given charge of the pris oners (v. 22). Potiphar knew Jo seph’s ability and faithfulness, there fore gave him employment of (lie most important kind. c. The Lord made him to be pros perous (v. 23). Joseph’s success was due to the hand of God upon him. 2. Interpreting the dreams of the butler and the baker (40:5-23). These were two very important officers in Pharaoh's court, their business being to provide the drink and food of the ruler and liis household. These offi cers had disturbing dreams, lie in terpreted their dreams. His inter pretation was favorable to the butler, who gave his pledge to Joseph that ho would intercede with Pharaoh for him when he was set free. III. Joseph Serving Pharaoh (41:1- 57). 1. Interpreting his dream (vv. 1-32). For two full years Joseph remained in prison, forgotten by the butler. Pharaoh’s dream brought to Joseph a great opportunity. The failure of the wise men of Egypt to interpret the dream caused the chief butler to remember what Joseph had done for him. Joseph was brought out of prison and made known to Pharaoh that it meant seven years of plenty followed by seven years of famine. 2. Advising Pharaoh (vv. 33-36). He suggested to him that part of the produce be stored during the years of plenty. The plan appealed to I’haraoh, and he invested Joseph with authority to execute it. 3. Preparing for famine (vv. 37-52). During the seven years the .earth brought forth plentifully. Clothed with royal authority, Joseph went over all tiie country and gathered and stored the food in all the cities. 4. Selling food to the needy (vv. 53-57). a. At last the years of fruitfulness ended and then began famine in all the lands (v. 53). b. Bread was to be found in Egypt only (v. 54). This was the result of Joseph’s foresight and preparation. c. Distribution in the hands of Joseph (vv. 55-57). Ho opened the storehouses and sold food unto the Egyptians and foreigners.

The soldiers in the antitariff ranks seem to be fighting for a lost cause. The Senate has approved duties on both lumber and copper. The Hcuse appears to be thirstier than the Senate, ..r.d has laid 2.75 beer to rest the epitaph on its tombstone being “228 to 169.” The lower legisla tive body has it in mind to make kidnapping a child and carrying it across a state line, a crime for which death will be the penalty. The Representa tives have passed a bill approp riating four million, to be dis tributed among the states on a population basis, for the re habilitation of persons who have been disabled in the in dustrial establishments of the country. The open and waiting nurse of the War will have to remain open waiting a littl^ longer, while the House continues its of the appropriation bill for that branch of the nation’s fense. The United States is not ing much headway in getting back the money which was loan ed to Europe in wartime, bin it seems that Europe is getting taste of her own no-pay uu di cine, though perhaps in does than she prescribed for The post office report shows that the amount sent across i :n pond from this country during the past'> year, in the -forr. mone y orders, is less than it A been fort almost a decade. One of the few business enter prises that is flourishing counterfeiting, there being more bad money afloat now than . any period within the of the oldest inhabitant. A government official says the public is partly to blame, in that it does not scrutinize its cash closely enough. In reply it rnay be remarked that a must have some horses to handle, before he can learn the' j much by looking one in mouth. The animal-like actions of children are said by a scientist to indicate that man had a pre human ancestor. If the conduct of many grown-ups is taken in to consideration also, that an cestor must have been the ass and not the ape. Smiles arc altogether too scarce, and Mr. Grant Hinkle, Secretary of State for the State of Washington, should be re membered kindly for lightening a serious article on legislation by referring to the boy who wanted to know how people stuck on the earth before the law of gravitation was passed. The American delegates to the disarmament conference in Geneva cannot keep their ex penses under fifty thousand dollars a month, and will have to come home unless Congress goes to their aid. Regardless of the direction in which one’s gaze is turned, the eye beholds suffer ing. Japan has had two prime min isters assassinated inside of a year. That is a disgraceful showing. In America, no one but a kidnaped baby need be genuie ly anxious. Disgruntled spouses continue to fill the columns with notices to the effect that they will not be responsible for debts con tracted by anyone other than themselves. At this time, when economic uplift and confid . ■ are so much needed, why noi start a movement to publish a list of names of those who arc willing to state that they arc ready to pay debts of their own contraction. The Boy Scouts and similai organizations really haven” much to offer in the way of it tractions.
