Sigaa of the Times.
When you see a man going down
the street with hia eyes glued to the
pavemert and hia lipa twiching aa if
he would say something and hia
britches badly bagged at the knees and
he growls at the men and scowls at
the women he meets and is red behind
his ears and blue urder hia eyes, you
can just put it down that an instal-
mert aget t is on his trail and tomor
row is the last dny between slow walk
ard a fast ride next Sabbath.
for appointing such a wonderful set
of men to serve on the farm relief
board and congratulate him on the
wisdom he has shown thus far ir ad-
vai cing the cause of the farmer. A
resolution was passed expressing per
fect satisfaction with the salaries now
being paid the board members, bdt
suggested thst a few thousand dollars
expense morey would not be oat of
place.
My wife’s kirfolks came to see us (
not long ago, and after staying 8 days,|
14 hours, 54 minutes, and 25 seconds,!
they loaded up and drove off. A s we
liave only 7 extra beds, some doubl
ing-up was recessary in the sleeping
line. I was bedded 2 nights with lit-
Archie and Sudie. Archie seemed
to sleep best with his heel ir.i myj
mouth, and Sudie laid cross-wise all •
the time and kicked me in the ribsj
with vim up till after midnight. And
then I bought a cot. They were all'
very fond of steak (which is fetching'
55 cents a pound bone and all), and i
we have 14 fewer chickens now than
we had once upon a time. (Doctor,
do you think my nervea are improving

Cotton Letter.
New York, Aug. 17.—The weather
map wag bullish 1 on the opening and
nun was predicted in Texas and!
Oklahoma, but it cleared off without]
fehowering any, December declined tOj
19.64, a new high for the week. A
soda water clerk in Tennessee puts’
the acreage under cultivation this
ywur at 48,776,868, which is five acres
more than the governmert’s gu
and in consequence of this boost, s;
will possibly break to around 14 cents
as soon as the farmer gets a bale or
two ginned. We advise curtailing the
use of wash rags ard gasoline.
If there were not so many “bear”
legs the bare-leg fad would become]
more common. The rayon and silk
producers ought to feel mighty thank
ful for warts, freckles, very-cos rse
warns, superfluous hair and off colors
of the node. Theee sffictfcms alone
re them from bankruptcy.
When you see a womar go into a
store and begin to inquire about 14-
dollar shoes and 98-dollar dresses and
15-dollar lingerie, and have the clerks
take down nearly all of the r.ice stuff
in the store and spread it before her
eyes so that she may peradventure^
select something to her liking, y^u
can just enter it in your fool bobok
that that old gal ai’.t get 25 cents to
her name and aint going to buy ary-
tbirg from you or anybody ^Ise for
several weeks.
Mr. Denmar. read a paper entitled
—**Cotton is already too high,” and
his statements were so convincing, it
was cor eluded that the needs of the
Southern farmer be dismissed from
the mirds of the members, and that
no action be taken concerning the
fleecy staple till it declines below 8
certs per pound.
When a customer gets ^verly chum
my with his grocer and/drops behind
a month or two with ms account ard
stops asking the price of a ham that
he takes home witfr him and lets his
younguns buy an^thirg they might
want and have it/charged to him ar d
begins to cuss Wall street and the
speculator, yofa might ay well get
ready to kisy that guy’s account good
bye and send to the post office and
purchase iome stamps so’s you can
mail his duns to him ir. another town,
’cause he’s getting ready to move.
A round table was held regardirg
wheat, ami as the drought, hail, rain,
sunshin^ heat, the zoobug, and other
pests had increased the price of wheat
about 60 per cent during the past 45
days a vote was taker or the question
whether or not the speculator had
made enough and if so—the market
would be put down 10 cents a bushel
in the very near future—that is—if it
looks like showers in Saskatchewan.
The relief board claimed all the credit
for the advarce, ard voted for the
weather to remain dry.
en you see a little sap-head hit
ting ’em down the highway at 75 miles
per in his daddy’s mortgaged junk
'ile with a thoroughly Ducoed flapper
(who doesn't know the difference be
tween a frying pan and a kettle) lean
ing heavily on his right shoulder and
his hair plastered to his vacant brain
bin and a smile anchored on his face
that won’t rub off, you might as well
stop and wonder what this world is
coming to if that trio represents the
ancestry of the future generation*
Oh, where in the dickens is my shot
gun nohow?
Mimes of the First Meet hr f ci
the Farm Relief Beard.
The meeting was called to order
by the Chairman and was opened with
prayar by Mr. Milling.
Mr. Hyde,
At this time a committee of ladies
from Aristook County, Maine, brought
in several platters of potato chips and
while the same were being devoured,
their spokesman, Mrs. Ima Bug,- ex
plained that without government help
at once, all of the Fords and half of
the Chevrolets in that community
would have to be surrendered next
week. The chairman promised to
take this situation urder advisement
and ask Mr. DePries^ to introduce a
bill i;*. congress right away—beseech
ing the ciedit companies to hold off
re-possessing of those Maine cars till
after some of that $500,000,000.00 was
puf trto circulation. " ;
A telegram was received from the
cranberry growers of Nova Scotia
seeking permission to bottle some
home-brew made from their product
a. d transport the same into the
United States on the border-bootleg-
ger-trucks now beirg used so exten
sively. ( The board wrll^ pass this
request on to Wickersham with a
recommendation to act, as it will help
to relieve those down trodden fanners.
After naming a secretary and a treas
urer ard maid and butler and chiro
podist for each member of the board
at various salaries as per the govern
ment scale, the meetii g adjourned to
convene again next fall at 4 o’clock.

After becoming settled In the towns
surrounding • Jerusalem, the people
were called together for the purpose
of establishing the worship of the
Lord God. The leaders in tuls move
ment were Joshua and the priests,
and Zemibabel, the governor. In
view of the fact that the clearing
a way of Hte debris of the old city and
temple and the erection of the new
temple would take a long time, an
slfnf was erected where sacrifice
might be offered at once unto God.
Upon Ibis newly erected slttr were
offered the regular sacrifices com
manded by Moses. Including those of
Hit r—st At Tabernacles (Ezra.
3:1-7).
1. The Foundation of the Temple
Laid (3:8-13).
This was so auspicious occasion
and was celebrated with most Impres
sive ceremonies.
L The priests’ apparel (v. 10). These
garments symbolized their consecm
Uon to the Lord’s service.
X The priests with trumpets (v.
10). The trumpets were used In call-
Ing^together the people.
X The Levltes with cymbals (v.
10). This was according to the ar
rangement made by David (1 Chron.
15:16-21).
4. They sang together by course
(v. 11). This means that they sang to
one another responsively. The one
company sarg, “The Irnrd Is good,” the
other responded. “For His ifaercy en-
dureth forever.**
5. Mingled weeping and sighing (vv.
12, 13). Some of the older mea who
had seen the magnificent temple of
Solomon, which had been destroyed,
wept much when they saw how far
short the present foundation came of
the former temple. Others were glad
of the favor of God which hod brought
them back, and that a beginning was
made In the new house of worship.
II. The Building of the Temple
Hindered (ch. 4).
The leading adversaries were the
Samaritans, a mongrel people—the off
spring of the poor Jews who were left
In Palestine and the foreign people
who were sent Into Palestine after
the Jew’s were taken captive. The
three perils which delayed the build
ing of the temple for about fourteen
years revealed the persistent methods
which the enemy uses to hinder the
program of God’s people in every age.
L An unintelligent pessimism (3:
12).
Under the circumstances, a glorious
beginning had been made. Many to
day, because things are not quite
what they should be, do not go for
ward with a constructive program, but
even hinder those who have the hope
ful outlook. In spite of all the evil
forces at work to thwart the purpose
of God, the Christian church should
push forward its program of evan
gelization.
2. Wordly compromise (4:2, 8)
“Let us build with you, for we seek
your God.** This Is Satan’s most com
mon and effective method. GodlS chil
dren should not seek the world’s pat
ronage In building churches and carry
ing on His work. The leaders should
declare with Zerubbabel, J!!Xe have
nothing to do with ns to bolld an
house unto our God.”
X Opposition by word (4:4-24).
When refused a part In the work
Intimidation and political scheming
were used by the enemies to defeat
the bail ding plan of God’s people.
III. The Temple Finished (5:1-6).
Through the ministry of the proph
ets Htggal and Zecbarlah. people
were encouraged to resume enthoal-
asticallj the work of building the

God’s House (Pa. 84:1-4).
L The longing of the son! for God’s
bouse (vv. 1, 2).
It Is refreshing when people long to
meet God In Hie bouse.
X The sparrow and swallow find
protection In the sacred precincts of
God's bouse (v. 3).
3. Dwelling In Gods house (v. 4).
Those who have a heart for God
find their chief delight In dwelling In
Uls house.
