FAIRLY SPOKEN As The Seasons Pass So Gently Does Life By MurRare* I^atrobe Sunday was the day of the 'uneral. A hot Sabbath afternoon at the end of summer. Har- ; vest was over, the crops were in, ihat which ha-J been scrwn in Spring had been gathered. The ingering heat was a reminder of what had been, a few red leaves turning on the hillsides foretold the coming Winter. For the >ld man it was a good time of year to pass from one life to another, as the season itself passed from its fullness to its rest. “In my Father's house are many mansions. . . ’’ The old man left his home for the last time, content and happy. Not visibly a mansion, still he had made it one o ( a sort. Its fields he had known from childhood 80 years ago. He had loved that land not because it was part of him out because he had made himself part of it. The old barn beyond the lot had shelf .ered his harvest of hay and grain these many years. Its creaking loft, its bins, its special grainy and animal smell had been familiar to his senses. Every day of his long life. “Love thy neighbor. . . ” He had done that In the yard that summer Sunday were the neighbors he had loved. They looked as they had always looked on Sundays— except their voices were lower, their faces showing more understanding, more acceptance than sorrow. There were nephews and nieces and grand-nephews and nieces and cousins. There were children of all these, and friends of cousins and then their children. And so on. The yard was full, the house was full of people who had

loved him. They could all remember the old man's love of children, of themselves as children There were times when he had saddled ponies for them, had interceded for them with Grandmother—herself a very old lady who thought her progeny were mischievous modem imps. Imps aow grown and thinking the ;ame things about their own.

COOKING/

More and more homemakers are learning that mod*. crn electric ranges mean less work, more leisure time. Pots and pans stay shiny and clean . . . your curtains ... walls, ceiling and woodwork . . . everything stays fresh and sparkling longer because electric cooking creates no messy soot or smoke. And the electric range’s automatic controls are so fool-proof that you can slide a meal in the electric oven, set the dials and forget it. V. hen the family comes home, your meal will be done to perfection and ready to serve. Electric cooking is faster and safer, too. Flick a switch, and surface units get cooking-hot in seconds. They make direct contact with the bottoms of cooking utensils, so foods reach desired temperatures in a jiffy. There are no flames, no dangerous fumes, no need for matches. See your appliance dealer now and, while you’re there, be sure to ask him about our low-cost electric range installation plan!

country church — where the quartet sang the hyms he loved, where the preacher fumbled with the microphone (installed to reach the overflowing crowd outside), where the final farewell was spoken—there was peace. “I go to prepare a place . . . ” The old man, at the end of his life, had gone to that other place. The harvest was in, the season was over, and even then there was the promise of new- life to come. And the ofd man—the kind good man—was laid to rest cm that afternoon of summer.
