The new minister In a Georgia
church was delivering his first ser-
mon. The negro janitor was a criti-
cal listener from a back corner of
the church. The minister's sermon
was eloquent and his prayer seem-
ed to cover the whole category of hp-
man wants.
After the services one of the dea-
cons asked the old negro what be
thought of the new minister. "Don't
you think he offer up a good prayer

"Ah mos' suttinly does boss" the
darkey answered. "Why dat man

The idea of a sermon is to make peo-
ple believe in something in such
way that they will tell others it is
so because the preacher said it. Ser-
mons are obtainable from the Bible
and newspapers. There are various
substitutes for sermons tha most
popular being sleep Sunday paper
and fisihing rods.

They heighten their complexions.
They tilt their chins.
They raise their voices.
They elevate their skirts.
They build up their heels.

Advice to Those la Lot
Marriage is the climax of love. It
is a wonderful thing to start hand in
hand down the road of life. But
there are stumbling blocks along the
way. For instance the glamor of
love often fades
When the hride finds he has holes
in his socks and wears a torn under-
shirt. When she finds that despite the
satisfying quality of their love his
appetite is still good.
When the groom learns that she
use an enormous amount of drug
store stuff.
When either discovers that the
other snores while asleep.
Tha Last Jouraev
Clouds on the nearing hill-crest rift-
ed with aunset gold
Dim winds the trail behind me days
of my life grown old;
Barter and toil and conflict little my
spirit heeds
Only the upward pathway that out
of the twilight leads.
Into the voiceless evening ovpr the
last divide.
Go I content and quiet trusting that
soon my guide
Out of the thickening shadows firmly
may clasp my hand.
So shall I tread beside Him the trail
of the silent land.
