IF YOU WERE BUSY.
If you were busy being kind,
Before you knew it you would find
You’d soon forget to think ’twas true
That some one was unkind to you.
If you were busy being glad,
And cheering people who are sad,
Although your heart might ache a bit,
You’d soon forget to notice it.
If you were busy being good,
And doing just the best you could,
You’d not have time to blame some
man
Who’s doing just the best he can.
If you were busy being true
To what you know you ought to do,
You’d be so busy you’d forget
The blunders of the folks you’ve met.
If you were busy being right,
You’d find yourself too busy, quite,
To criticize your neighbor long
Because he’s busy being wrong.
—Rebecca B. Foresman, in the Chris-
tian Work

“Everything possible should be
done to better the economic condition
of the farmer, and also to increase the
social value of the life of the farmer,
the farmer’s wife, and their children.
The burdens of labor and loneliness
bear heavily on the women in the
WANTS PEACEFUL REST NOW.
The trouble with this little inscrip-
tion, “Rest in Peace,” is that our
neighbors never use it until they put
it on our tombstones, says Bert Walk-
er. If they would carry a few of
them around' while we are among
them and occasionally tack one on
j our door they would do a whole lot
| more good. “Rect in Peace” may be
j a consolation to those who come to
view the place where we dropped out
of sight, but it offers no advantage
to the fellow who is tuning up his
harp for the first solo in the choir
invisible. “Rest in Peace” is too
much like the flowers they carry to
us after we have wandered on—too
late. If we would hang that motto
on the door of our harrassed and wor-
ried neighbor and let it wave there
for one short week while he is here
among us it would afford him more
sweet relief than it does chiseled on
cold granite during all the time the
rain and snows of countless centuries
are beating against it. “Rest in
Peace” in marble is all right, but as
far as 1 am concerned I don’t like the
idea of waiting to have it handed to
me_on my tombstone. I figure that
one hour of it here on a fitful after-
noon is worth a century of it over
yonder on a white rock. The thing to
do is to pull “Rest in Peace” off the
sepulcher and put it on the bandstand.

THE PEOPLE AND THE COURTS.
The American people, and not the
courts, are to determine their own
fundamental policies. The people
should have power to deal with the
effect of the acts of all their govern-
mental agencies. This must be ex-
tended to include the effects of judi-
cial acts as well as the acts of the

WOMAN IN HER WORLD.
To match the splendid chivalries of man’s public life, woman
has developed the pretty gallantr.es of her private life Io match
his flaming heroism, she has developed her silent fortitudes,
match his dazzling audacities, his initiative, his dash, she has devel-
oped her monotonous conservatism, her terrible patience, her resis
less perseverance. To match his lust for adventure, rfhe has devel-
oped her instinct for romance. To match his capacity for sustained,
creative effort, she has developed her capactiy for inspiration and
counsel^ va,uable minor qualities she has brought out of her
little world ! What immeasurable capacity for enjoyment . What
immeasurable incapacity for boredom ! What a pleasure in i t
things ! What volatility, what susceptibility, what sympathy, what
delicacy ! What swiftness and depth of feeling ! How strong an
instinct for beauty and neatness and order and system . Wha e -
ficiency and practicality ! Perhaps, after all, it is her >o"g exper-
ience in domestic government that explains the long list of efficient
woman-sovereigns. — Inez Hayes Gillmore, in Harper’s Bazaar.

Even in these prosperous times,
who but a Kansas farmer could af-
ford to charter a special car and take
his fortyfive relatives on a trip to
California? William Holden had in
800 acres of wheat and told his rela-
tives that if it went twenty bushels to
the acre he would take them all to
the Pacific coast. It went twenty-

WE ARE WRITING
OUR OWN EPITAPHS.
From the Congregationalist.
We are all very busy—busy writ-
ing epitaphs. We do not let a day
pass without doing something in this
line, and we are all busy, not in writ-
ing epitaphs for others, but in writ-
ing our own. And we are making it
very sure that people will read what
we have written when we are gone.
Shall we not be remembered? If not
by many, we certainly shall be by a
f.jw, and that remembrance we are
making sure of by the tenor of our
lives. Our characters are the in-
scriptions we are making on the
hearts of those we know, and who
will survive us We do not leave
this office to others. We are doing
it ourselves Others might falsify
and deceive by what they might say
of us But we are telling the truth.
The actions of our passing life are
facts visible, plain, undeniable. We
engrave them on the minds of all ob
servers. Remember the epitaphs we
write are not for the marble that tells
where we lie, but for the memory of
everyone that knew us.
