Bedtime Story for Children By THORNTON W. BURGESS
DANNY FINDS A REFUGE AS DANNY MEADOW MOUSE anxiously looked this way and that way for a place to hide from Buster Bear, a sharp, squeaky voice almost In his very ear made him jump, "What are you doing over here, Cousin Danny? Aren’t you lost?” said the sharp, squeaky voice. Danny turned quickly to find a little round hole tn the ground between the roots of the tree, and just inside was the trim little head of his cousin. Whitefoot the Woodmouse. "Oh*" cried Danny. “Buster Bear is trying to catch me and I don’t know what to do." "Come in here," replied Whitefoot promptly. Danny didn’t need a second invitation. He darted In just as Buster Bear reached the tree on the other side. Buster promptly tried again the trick by which he had so nearly caught Danny. He reached a great paw around the trunk of the tree and brought It down swiftly. But he was too late. There was no one under that big paw. Buster watched and listened, but he saw nothing and beard nothing. Then he walked around the tree to investigate. There was no sign of Danny Meadow Mouse. But between the roots of the tree was a little round bole. "Huh !" grunted Buster Bear and began to* dig furiously. Now Buster Bear’s claws are long and stout and when he sets out to dig be makes things fly. But Whitefoot the Woodmouse knows all about those great claws of Buster, and when he made that little round hole be made It right under the big roots of that tree. It didn’t take Buster long to find out that It was quite useless to try to dig out Danny Meadowmoube. You see, those big roots were tn the way. So after a minute or two of useless digging Buster gave up. It was foolish to waste time there when he might be hunting for and finding sweet little beechnuts. So, grumbling deep tn his throat, Buster walked oft and once more began to rake over the leaves tn search of beechnuta Meanwhile Danny Meadow Mouse had followed his cousin.

A LITTLE NEW SOUL By ANNE CAMPBELL'
A LITTLE new soul came down today On a sunlit cloud, from far away. She stole the blue from the morning skies, And a star for each of her pretty eyes. She grasped at the dawn, and in her fingers The rosy glow of the morning lingers. A little new soul came down to lift Our weary hearts with her hopeful gift. She brushed by the sun and plucked its gold. And she brought God’s love for our arms to hold. A little new baby, with dreams in her eyes. Came to show us the pathway to Paradise!

It is the age-old story of trying to get something for nothing. And it la not only In the pursuit of crime that we find constant evidence that this does not pay, that it leads always to tragic failure. There are ways beside crime In which people try to get something for nothing. There are petty little ways, of attempting to get something tor nothing. These are exemplified perhaps more by women than by. men, for men are more business-like and it U unbusiness-Uke to try to get something for nothing. It is always*a waste of time and energy. It never pay*—this trying to get something for nothing. And in addition there is the unpleasant feeling of dissatisfaction which every normal person must feel with the consciousness of “trying to get away with something.** C Beil Syndicate.—WXV Service.

LJ ’ ut ” a ‘” IMPROVED 141 UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I chool Lesson By REV. P. B. FITZWATER. D. D, Member of Faculty. Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. a Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 4 JOSIAH LESSON TEXT—n Kings Silt. GOLDEN TEXT—Thou shalt worship th® Lord thy God. and him only shalt thou serve.—Matthew 4:19. PRIMARY TOPIC—When a King Read the Bible. JUNIOR TOPIC—When a King Used the Bible. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPlC—Things That Keep God Out. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—What Our Religion Owes to Reformers. I. Josiah, a Godly Young King (II Kings 22:1, 2). “He did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left" About one hundred years elapsed between the reformation under Hezekiah and that of Josiah. Sometime during this period the Book of God’s Law bad been lost Two wicked kings had reigned in this interval. It was incumbent upon the king to have the Law of God at his command and faithfully to read it A country’s highest well-being can only be attained when it has godly rulers, and rulers and people not only read the Bible, but order their lives and conduct according to its teachings. Not until rulers and people return to God and conform their lives to the standard of his Word can we hope for return of permanent prosperity. 11. The Book of the Law Found (II Kings 22:3-10). 1. The occasion (w. 3-8). It was while restoring the temple during Josiah’s administration that the Law was found. In clearing out the dark corners to make repairs and to find a place to store the subscriptions made by the people, many lost things were found, among which was the Book of Law. 2. The Book read before the king (vv. 9, 10). Upon making a report of the work to the king. Shaphan informed him of the finding of the Book of the Law of the Lord, and he read the Book before the king. 111. The Effect of the Reading of the Law Upon the King (11 Kings 22:1120). • - L He rent his clothes (v. 11). As the Law was read before him he was led to realize the awful extent of the nation’s departure from God. The renditlg of the royal robes Indicated the king’s penitence and sorrow. 2. The king sent a deputation to make Inquiry of the Lord (w. 12-20). He Included himself in the guilt before God (v. 13). His sense of sin was so keen that he sent to inquire of the Lord as to whether there was any means of diverting the divine judgments. 3. The message of Huldah the prophetess (w. 15-20). • a. Confirmation of what the Law said (vv. 15-17). She said that all the curses written in the Law must fall, for the sins had been so flagrant that God’s could not be restrained. It was not too late, however, upon, repenting, to obtain mercy from God, but the outward consequences of sin must be realized. b. Acceptance of Josiah’s repentance (vv. 18-20). Because of his tenderness of heart and deep penitence, the Lord said be was to be gathered to his grave in peace and should thus escape all the evil brought on Jerusalem and its people. What Huldah said was true, even though Josiah died in battle (II Chron. 33:22-25). IV. The Reformation Instituted by Josiah (C Kings 23:1-25). L The king read the Law (w. 1,2). Be gathered together the inhabitants of Jerusalem, including the priests. Lerites. aud elders and read unto them the Law. What a happy scene it would be If the President of the United States would call the representatives of the people together to hear God’s law read. 2. The king made a covenant before the Lord (v. 3). In this covenant he pledged himself: a. To walk before the Lord. This meant that he would get personally right with God. It is highly important that a ruler first be in right personal, relationship to God. b. To keep God’s commandments, his testimonies and his statutes. This obedience was to be a heart obedience. c. To perform the words of covenant which were written in this Book. The king not only entered into this sincerely but caused all who were present to “stand to" it 3. The king took away the abominations (vv. 4-20). He not only broke down the places of Idolatrous worship, but slew the priests who officiated at the altar. . 4. The Passover kept (vv. 21-23). So fully and heartily did they enter Into this reformation that this Passover was unlike any that had been held since the days of the judges. 5. Workers of the occult driven out (w. 24, 25). AU the days of the king they departed not from following after the Lord.

Too many white summer clothes grow monotonous. A silk serge is one of the newest fabric developments. London society women are wearing spectacles to match their hats.

England (supposed to be the finest flax in the world) to Moygashel, Ireland, there to be woven, because the workmanship is so fine—quite a royal pedigree for these linens. The two-piece centered in the group has a tight-fitting basque coat with no belt to disturb the natural line. It is of white linen with navy buttons and tie.

SHOE COMFORT IS MOST IMPORTANT To be footloose and free during the season of pleasant week ends and after-dark breathing spaces, one must have foot comfort Cool shoes with flexible construction are a likely way of getting this comfort with preference given lightweight numbers, and those that are ventilated by perforations, lattice and cut-outs. Novelties In shoes are always at their peak in the summer season, and they are usually far more moderately priced than the novelties thought up for evening shoes to complement formal winter costumes. Sandals of printed linen or crash, slippers covered with gay flowered chiffon, oxfords of splendid supporting strength, perforated Into lacy prettiness, plain cotton or linen shoes of any color you can name,' plaid linen in natural tones, checked gingham in kitchen apron designs, lightweight suede In any pastel hue or any flag hue and crocheted string shoes are Just a few of the kinds you can choose from in the shops. Oriental Influence Seen in Evening Clothes Styles The Hindu Influence, inspired by the Maharanee of India, has initiated a definite swing away from fitted, bias lines to softly draped designs In evening clothes. Allied Influences, such as Persian, Arabian, and a new version of Grecian folds, contribute to the same effect These flattering, age-old drapery details are difficult to make hence are not easily copied, a point being stressed now in high style circles. Alix, the Parisian couturiere, has turned but a thrilling array of Oriental formal gowns. Most of them are topped with seductive saris, those long, scarf-like affairs which start out by wrapping around the body and then proceed to cover the head in the manner of a monk’s hood.
