A PLEASANT VISIT SITTING safe -nd comfortable in the hollow «tutyp to which Whitefoot the Woodmouse had led him. Danny Meadow Mouse told Whitefoot all about his adventures from the time he had visited the Smiling Pool right up to the moment when Whitefool had come to his rescue. Whitefoot listened without saying a word until Danny’s story was ended. Then he gravely shook his head. “It was a crazy thing to do. Cousin Danny. It certainly was a crazy thing to jflo.” said he. “What was a crazy fhing to doF demanded Danny, looking puzzled. “Going so far away from home when there was no need of It," replied Whitefoot. “I thought you were too wise to take such foolish risks.

IMy nerves are rather upset This is a very nice, comfortable place you have here. It Is one of the most comfort- - able places I’ve been in for a grea» . while." I Whitefoot looked pleased. “I’m glad s you like It." said he. “I think it is t rather good myself. I have two or 1 three other places quite as good. Now t the thing for you to dd. Cousin Danny. I is to stay here the rest of the night and make yourself right nt home.” To this Danny agreed, for he really i did not feel equal to going any farther - that night. S<> he and Whitefoot slept a little and talked a great deal Dan- • ny learned many things about the Green Forest and in turn told Whitei foot many things about the Green I Meadows. Whitefoot was sure that > the Green Forest was the finest place : in all the Great World In which to live. t Danny was sure that It dldn”t compare with the Green Meadows, and they argued the matter over and over. But the argument was quite good-natured and simply showed that the things one is used to are the things one loves best To Danny the Green Forest was filled with terrible dangers. To Whitefoot the Green Meadows seemed a place where there could be no such thing as real safety. So they argued and argued and had a perfectly splendid time. © T. W. Burrcaa.—WN’U Mrric*.

THE tremendous output of oil wells drilled at sea has justified the expense of this unusual undertaking near Ventura, Calif. A rich stratum of oil-bearing sand was discovered more than 4 a quarter of a mile off shore. Drilling was startedi shortly afterward and the resultant wells far beyond the breaker line have been a highly successful venture.

THROUGH A , \%>mans Eyes By JEAN NEWTON A LESSON FROM THE ZOO «« D REEDING, self-control? Those are just terms for artificiality •nd hypocrisy." said a militant member of our would-be “free" younger generation. “Why should we pretend things we don’t feel—why restrain impatience or Irritation, why try to glees over situations to avoid any feeling of friction? If certain reactions or sentiments are natural and sincere, why not show them? “With everybody honestly showing what they feel there is much more chance of the causes of disagreement and Irritation being removed in a natural way. and the harmony whicn results then wouhl be a true harmony, not an affected one.” -ft/';’:-. ;

Why? I wished I could take our young friend one day to the zoo when something in the weather or something else which could not be helped had adversely affected the dispositions of the residents there. For that is one place where there is no “affectation.” no “artificiality”—and no breeding, which in other words is consideration for others. The various residents would, of course, be expressing, quite honestly. their feelings and impulses. Os course our friend would not stay there long enough to make much of a study of the matter—no longer probably, than necessary to get away. But the din of very inharmonious noises would be sufficient to illustrate the answer to her question as to why it is not feasible for humans always to indulge their impulses, to do in the presence of others what they really want to do, to express without restraint our like and dislike impression. To carry that to its logical conclusion, saying things would be followed perhaps by throwing things; In any event the re suit would be somewhat unpleasant. e Bell Sjndicat®.—WNU Servtc*.
IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY I chool Lesson By KEV. P. B. FITZWATER. D. D. Member of Faculty, Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. © Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for August 11 DANIEL LESSON TEXT—Daniel 1:8-20. GOLDEN TEXT—Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is In you, which ye have of God?—l Corinthians 0:19. PRIMARY TOPIC—How Daniel Grew Strong. JUNIOR TOPIC—Ten Times Strong. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPlC—Obeying the Laws of Health. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPlC—Motives for Total Abstinence. The lesson committee has designated this lesson, “Temperance arid Health.” In the use of this as a temperance lesson it must be borne in mind that it is temperance in the sense of self-mastery, rather than having to do with indulgence in intoxicating liquors. Daniel’s self-mastery was due to his right relation and loyalty to his God. It is utterly futile to hope to enforce a program of temperance upon those who are In rebellion against God. I. Daniel In Captivity in Babylon (w. 1-4). Daniel with his companions were carried away to Babylon in the first seige of Jerusalem by Nebuchadnezzar. At the command of the king, certain choice young men were carried •way because they were “skillful in wisdom, and cunning in knowledge, and understanding science,” that they might be trained to stand In the king’s palace. “11. Daniel’s Trial* (w. 5-7). 1. Conscience tested (v. 5). By the appointment of the king, a daily provision was arranged of the king’s meat and wine for Daniel and his companions. This was contrary to the custom among the godly Jews. Being contrary to the Jewish customs they could not conscientiously partake of them. 2. The change of name (vv. 6,7). Among the Hebrews names were given to children which were most significant. Daniel means “God Is my Judge." The significance of this name Is that all the problems of life were submitted to God for a decision. God was made the arbitrator of his life. His name was changed to Belteshazzar, which means “Bel’s prince." It meant, therefore, one whom the chief god of the Babylonians favors. Hananlah means “gift or beloved of Jehovah.” His name was changed to Shadrach, which signified “Illumined by the sun god, Rach." Mishael means “who is as God?” His name was changed to Meshach, which means “who Is like the goddess, Sheshach, the gentle one?" Azariah means “Jehovah IS our nelp." This was changed to Abednego, which means “the Servant of Nego." Back of the change of names was the attempt of Satan to wipe out the name of the true God and to have these young men to lose their separation, thus becoming assimilated among the heathen. 111. Daniel’s Courtesy (vv. 8-13). Daniel seems to have been the spokesman for the company. Although his heart was fixed, he did not forget to be a gentleman. He requested to be excused from this meat and drink In order that he be not defiled. We should learn from this that in times even of great trials we should be courteous. When Daniel asked that a test be made as to the effect of the food upon the countenance of himself and companions, gracious consideration was given to them. IV. Daniel’s Triumph (vv. 14-21). L As to physical health (vv. 14-16). A test was made for ten days, and It was shown that Daniel and bls companions were fairer in countenance and fatter in flesh than those who indulged In the eating of the king's meat This meat and wine wquld have been pleasant to the palate, but would have meant a compromise of the conscience. It is obligatory upon God’s children today to conscientiously abstain from that which is contrary to his law. It means the total abstinence from intoxicating liquors and everything which would Injure the health. 2. Spiritual insight (v. 17). Because of Daniel’s loyalty to God. Nebuchadnezzar's dream was revealed to him (2:31-45), and he was given visions sketching the whole history of the world. 3. Mental growth (vv. 17-20). Daniel and his companions were found to be ten times superior In matters of wisdom and understanding to their comrades. Those who abstain from indulgence in the use of strong drinks have clearer minds and are thus better equipped mentally for their work than those who indulge therein. 4. Their social and political preference (v. 19). They stood before the king. No higher position of Influence and honor could have been given them. \ 5. Their temporal influence (v. 21). They were all advanced to positions of influence, and Daniel became president of the college of wise men, and the prime minister of the nation. This position be continued to hold during several dynasties. Th* Aag«l Choir No wonder that the sudden light and music of the “multitude of the heavenly host" flashed and echoed around that group on the hillside. The true picture is not given when we think of that angel choir as floating in heaven. They stood in their serried ranks around the shepherds and tfieir fellows on the solid earth, and “the night was filled with music,” not from overhead, from every side. Crowding forms became all at once visible within the encircling glory, on every face wondering gladness and eager sympathy with men, from every Up praise. Angels ean speak with the tongues of men when their theme Is their Lord become man. and their auditors are men. They hymn the blessed results of that birth, the mystery of which they knew more completely than they were yet allowed Jo telL—Alexander Maclaren. *
Glamorous Midsummer Silk Prints
I* I talk fl I -I * R •r ■« J »' E St j
MIDSUMMER prints are Simply gorgeous. Adjectives, no matter how extravagant, how eloquent or picturesque, fall short of describing them. It is impossible to capture their beauty of color and design and release it via mere words. Like the full blown rose that reaches perfection of bloom in midsummer, the lovely prints now worn, especially the sumptuous evening prints, have reached to such heights of glamorous beauty one’s very being thrills at the sight of them. The enchanting gowns here pictured are self-explanatory as to why women continue to adore prints. The superlative loveliness of the stately model to the left in the group carries the message that no happier choice can be made in the way of a summery evening gown than a filmy, vaporous printed chiffon which silhouettes huge white waterlilies touched with pink and green shadows against a misty black background. The scarflike arrangement which falls across the shoulders, floating in summer airiness at every move, is typical of current styling. Then there is a frock of perfectly beautiful flower-printed silk fantasy crepe which the lady seated is wearing. To mar the perfection of this glorified print with a superfluous trimming touch would be an unforgivable gesture. Which is why the designer fashioned this superb print along absolutely simple lines. This print is vivid with splashes and dashes of warm tropical colors —as gay, as gorgeous as a bird of brilliant exotic plumage. The lovely dress with a cape centered in the picture has a story of fascinating interest to tell. It is of violet-gray mousseline de sole. Huge flower appliques, cutouts from a silk

Its crown is cut sharply tn half by a beautiful black and white pluffie which emerges undeneath the brim, curling softly down over the neck. The other hat is a type which milliners are showing for wear with dinner dresses. The body of the hat is sheerest net —serves as a foundation for the luxuriant feather which constitutes the brim and trim.

This gown Is especially significant in that It demonstrates the use of cutout florals from printed fabric as a trimming feature. Designers are doing very clever things along this line of thought. One striking effect is the lei or garland which is worn about the shoulders like a boa or necklace, or is used to finish low-cut necklines, that Is made entirely of cutout flowers taken from gay printed chiffons or crepes or whatever the silken material may be. Boutonnieres made of the same print as the frocks with which they are worn are also smartly in vogue. Perhaps one of the most unique and charming adapations of cutout print florals is seen in sleeves which are formed of the flower motifs which are caught in the center only, the petals fluttering out as if they were real flowers.

Fresh flowers are being used as a definite part of current costume ensembles, used in new and unusual ways.

The stems are wound with velbet ribbon, in a color to harmonize with the ensemble, and are pinned against the collar of the frock or jacket. For evening gay young things are wearing a spray of small pink orchids across the back of the head, tiara fashion. Flowers In the hair are all the rage just now.
