how or when but he has the faith we all have in America and rightfully declares that the thing to do is to maintain the wage scale. The • standard of living must be preserved in this country and will be • as far as is possible. ■ Companies are now being organised nml are purchasing real estate, Anal and city property, over the J country, to be held for a rising mari ket. They will of course operate ’ the properties so as to break even if possible, but expect to show real 1 earnings when the tide has turned and people are again in a buying mood. That’s the smart thing tor individuals to do if they can arrange finances for its a sure thing. Old Man Spring has a hard time getting all the way through the gate it. seems for just about the time the weather begins warming up. along conies hail and snow and sets us back a week. At that we need some showers and we haven't much complaint so far in this section. The outlook for a big crop is fine up to date, so what is there to grumble about? President Gerald Swope of the General Electric Company says ’ that industry must solve the problem of unemployment by stabilization, a great thought from one of ' the greatest business men in the world. It is cheerful news that such men as he and his associates 1 are working on this matter, than which few things are of greater ini- 1 portance just now. If the country 1 will listen to such men as Mr. Swope we will all fare better. Fred Butke, county auditor at Aurora, Illinois, leader of town boosters, forward looking citizen and one of the popular leaders of ■ his community in every way, has ‘ been declared short in his accounts j but with a trust fund for his wife in the sum of $lll,OOO and then ' < commits suicide in a Chicago hotel. . The money will no doubt be refund- i ed and the public will believe his ’ mind suddenly gave way. Men who . are exemplary all their lives do not do such things when all the cylindi ers are working. , While a few people are discuss- , ing prohibition and making more 1 noise about it than a Spanish revolution the masses of the people are interested in economic problems and are wondering when they will get back to normal work. When the votes are counted it will be found that ten persons are interested in their jobs to where one is interested in how he will get his liquor. The politicians who recognize this fact will be the ones to wave the banner of success after the 1932 election. — Hartford City News. o ♦ ♦ ANSWERS TO TEST QUESTIONS , Below are the answers to the test questions printed on page two ♦ . *♦ 1.

The fire was the most spectacular in Buffalo in years. 'All but two engine companies and two trucks answered the four alarms and the series of telephone calls which Deputy Fire Commisisoner William R. Castimore used as a substitute for a fifth alarm. The fire was discovered by John D. Marvin, a fireman, who was drilling with the Minute Men of troop 1 post. He turned in the Seventy-nine Years of Age and Still Active Forty-year resident of Washington praises modern medicine More and more people every day are learning about this new, modern way of relieving discomforting ailments — the Syenol Treatment. Innumerable cases, both young ______ | | A . J* i'ii- 1 ? MR. JOSEPH MILEY and old, are responding in an amazingly short time. Syenol is a scientific comqpunding of only a few unusually valuable medicines. That is why it was such a great help to Mr. Joseph Miley. Read what he says: “My stomach gave me a great deal of trouble; always sour, food did not digest properly, and my (ongue was continually coated. My kidneys drove me almost mad with severe pains across the back and my towels did not move without strong cathartics. Syenol was very highly recommended to me by users, and so I tried it. I have lived long enough to realize that a wonderful medicine like Syenol should be recommended to everybody that suffers as I suffered. My stomach lost the sour, bloated feeling, and my digestion is better. My liver became active. Headaches disappeared and my kidneys and bowels are in good condition. I feel 100% tetter." Give Syenol a chance to do for you wliat it did for Mr Miley. It has proven conclusively its wonderful properties for relief-giving. Contains no opiates, narcotics or harmful drugs of any nature. SYENOL can be secured at the Holthouse Drug Co. and other good drug stores. ■

I* 1 ♦ U. B. Sunday School Council -Holds Meet | ♦ The Sunday School Council ol the U B. Church held Its Monthlj meeting at the church Monday night. BustnoKs was discuseid after which Mrs. Jess Williams gave an interesting talk on the subject “The OrgiUizatlon of Material”. Mrs. Williams said "we might have the test Sunday School teach- ; ers In the world and teaching in the ) best equipped Sunday School and | yet. If we do not have the proper | lesson material arranged In a sys--1 tematic manner, we can get no I where. I Too much thought can not be givi en to the lesson material. There are 1 four diferent types of organization that are used in the preparation of the lesson material and they are known as (1 (haphazard, (2) logical. (3) chronological and (4) psychological. The first Is what its name Implies, haphazard. There i.i no relationship of the several parts of the lesson, no continued theme, nothing to determine the order of the right presentation of ideas. The outcome of such a lesson is. by chance, scraps of information and the pupils get hothiug from it at all. In the logical organization the younger students seem to be forgotten. Here the effort is made to fit the several parts of the subject matter being sudled into the way they are best related. This organ!gatlon of material may be suitably fitted to the mind of the older student, the real scholar, one who Is an expert in these studies but it means nothing' to the child. The plan teaches the child the great fundamental truths, which he should know, but it does not each them in a proper way for a child who is just beginning to study religion. The chronological form Is of very little importance to the child. In teaching the child, the thing of most importance is to make real and vital the meaning of some certain event.' character or incident in Bible His-i tory. Jesus used the psydtolog.ical plan ' a» his method of teaching. With a

simple, direct, homely mode of np || prouch to the lesson subject He not ■ only made His hearers understand I but He also inadq them see how to I > apply the lesaons to their own I Ilves. All teachbrs would do well to I study closely His method of in- I strueting His hearers. I It was hot so Very long ago that I the Sunday Schools used what were.l known as "The Uniform Lesson". I In these lessons there was no grad |l h g. The same lesson was used for 1 all ilasses of all ages, from the in- | fuut class up to the adult classes. |l As more thought was given to the II organization*of material, these les- II eons were more carefully graded I and adapted to the different ages I 'in the school. The mainmoint to be I remembered in using the graded 1 lessons is that the basis of grading I shonid be the child rather than the I subject lesson or matter. I Summing up the matter of organ!- I cation of material, then, we say that I 1- Lessons should start with sub- 1 ject matter adapted to the youngest I child. | 2. The regular course of study I should present a continuous series I of xtepH providing material of I broadening scope to each age or I stage from childhood to full maturity. 3. Its order and arrangemen' I should at all times be decided by the needs and development of the learner and should make constant point of (fontact with His life and experience. 4. It should be printed in attractive text-book form. I 5. We should apply the same scientific and educational knowledge. and the same bus ness ability in preparing and issuing our Sunday School lesson materia', that we give to this phase of general education. The next chapter will be given by Mrs. John T. Kelly, Subject "The Technique of Teaching.” The counsil meeting was then disMr. R. R. Jackson.
