Christians Should Be He'plul.
We, as Christian people, should be
kind and considerate in our every
thought, word and deed toward
the lame, the old, the blind, un
iortunate, and erring. While error
must be deplored and virtue ever
commended, we should deal con¬
siderately with the erring. We
should not forget in the treatment
• of the erring that were the mother
present she would plead with us to
deal gently with her child. How
cruel and unfortunate, then, is the
presence of the hinderer, where
help and encouragement is what
we all need. It is the helping hand,
the smiling lips, the cheery voice
we need to help us. Have faith in
ourselves and benevolence with
others. As we grow older we grow
less patient with the young. Age is
not conservative. It does not take
kindly to new things. It looks
askance at the prospects of the
young who seem rashness personi¬
fied in their optismistic inexper¬
ience. We as Christian people,
should feel that our footsteps are
guided by a wise and loving hand.
Still at times dark clouds obscure
our pathway; our weak and feeble
attempts to pray seem of no. avail
But God will give us grace to sus¬
tain us in all our trials, and in
every temptation make a way for
our escape.

Destroys Destructive Birds
With Old Sytiie
Atlanta, Ga., —
Groner, a well known
and chicken-raiser has discovered a
new method of protecting his
from hawks. Noticing that
hawks always perched on a certain
dead tree before swooping down
for barnyard depredations, he cut
all the limbs off the tree, and then
procured a syethe blade which hi
ground to a razor-edge and then
fastened at a sloping angle of about
forty-five degrees to the side of the
tree trunk.
Presently a large hawk alighted
on the i syethe blade which seemed
a convenient perch. Instantly 'if
began to slide down the smooth
slant of the blade, and the razor
like edge sliced its talons ofi a
quickly and neatly as a meat-cuttei
slices beef. The bird ffutterod t»
the ground and then managed to
fly away but it w pei in..t.i nt 1\
crippled and could never kill anoth¬
er chicken. Next morning the
mer found that he had luiildcd even
wiser than be knew, for he
a couple of sets of owl-toes on
ground beneath the blade. *
Mr. Groner recommends
home made idea to all who ‘ 1M
troubled by hawks.

Facts and Fancies.
We had a great excitement here
1 Shoal Creek Sunday. Some
and
C,1Urch bells ran &* Tho cause of the
whole trouble was three men run¬
ning out land lines who did not
own any* land.
One of our girls said that if
someone would place a nickl'e in
her hand she could tell who was
writing Shoal Creek News. An
aged and respected old gentleman
placed the nickel in her hand, and
she promply informed him that it
was she who pushed the pen that
traced the words from which the
editor wrote that the type setters
might: set the type that the press
could print what we were doing
in Shoal Creek.
Old Mt Yonah News.
Mr. John Smith, has gone down

location.
Mr. T, W. Kimsey made a busi¬

J heard a dash of a noise, and
looking out saw a horse dressed in
white trying to outrun a cart. If
the cart had only bad gas attached

would have overrun the horse.
There is a wonder in Cleveland.
The correct guesser will receive a i
reward.
