Bedtime Story for Children

WHAT DANNY MEADOW
MOUSE DID
T O GRANDFATHER FR<!>G, watch
ing from the safety of the Smiling
Pool, It seemed that Danny Meadow
House hadn’t the least chance In the
world. There he was on the bank of
the Smiling Pool with water In front
of him and Reddy Fox creeping up
sight behind him. To try tQkj’un back
would be to run right Into Reddy’s
aMWth, There wasn’t a place for-Dan*
■y to hide.
“I told Danny he was foolish to
oome over here,” muttered Grandfa.
Danny Meadow Mpuse swimming
straight out^oward the middle as If
he were quite as much at home in the
water as his big cousin, Jerry-Musk
rat himself.
From the way he was headed It was
quite clear that Danny intended to
swim across the Smiling Pool to the
other bank. ‘‘Chugarum!” exclaimed
Grandfather Frog. “Chugarum! Bravo,
Danny Meadow Mouse! Bravo!’
Danny made no reply. He was -too
bttsy. He' con 1 dn*f wSSTe Tils""breath
talking. Besides, he was afraid he
would swallow some water and choke.
So he kept right on swimming as hard
as ever he could. The truth is, Danny
was in a hurry to reach the other
hank. While he wasn’t afraid of the
water, he was afraid of certain folks
who live In the water. He knew that
Snapper, the great, big Snapping Tur-
tlelllves in' the Shilling Pool, and that
nothing would make him happier than
a fat meadow mouse for his dinner.
Then Danny couldn’t help but think of
Billy Mink. If Billy Mink should hap
pen along, well, Danny didn't like Jo
I PAPA KNOWS-1
think of it. You see, Billy Mink Is
also fond of fat meadow mice.
So Danny swam with all his might
for the other bank of the Smiling Pool.
There were some little holes in that
hank where he would feel quite safe.
As for Reddy Fox, he looked both fool
ish and angry. You see, Reddy had
felt absolutely sure of that Meadow
Mouse dinner. As It was he wouldn’t
even get a frog dinner, for, at the
warning of Redwing the Blackbird, all
the young frogs along the edge of the
Smiling Pool had dived for safety.

Growth of Fishes
The growth of fishes probably decel
erates with age, but under favorable
circumstances It never stops. If fish
growth were shown on a grapl
weight curve would show a steady up
ward line, but the length curve would
ascend rapidly at first, then almost
straighten out That Is because as the
fish grows large, the corresponding in
crease in girth tends to make the
weight increase rather constant—De
troit Free Press.
Y OU and I together
Have shared adversity.
Our faith has tumbled mountains
Of care Into the sea.
We’ve faced small trlbulatlona
With laughter In each heart; ,
But what haq life to offer
For .you and me, apart?
*
Yon and I together
Are strong to conquer Fate,
But separate, how stony
The path to heaven’s gate!

But I should miss the start.
And never repch the hilltop,
With you and me, apart!

ter^ls to place before the pupils of the
Sunday school some of the great doc
trines of the Christian faith, as set
forth In God’s Word, with their prac
tical application to the common rela
tions of life,
I. Who Is the Heavenly Father
(Gen. 1:1).
He is the almighty God who created
the universe (Fs. 90:2). He was be
fore all things. God is the infinite and
perfect Spirit In whom we live and
move and have our being. He Is om
nipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent
He was not only before all things, but
the cause of all things.
II. What the Heavenly Father Does.
1. He created the universe (Gen.
1:1; cf. vv. 26, 27). The universe came
Info being by the will and act of the
personal Being called God Man him
self Is a creation of God.
2. He has provided salvation for
lost men (I John 4:9). He gave his
only Son, that whosoever believeth in
him might live through him (John
3:16).
3. He preserves us-(Ps. 103:1-14).
The ^preserving mercy of God em
braces the following gracious bene
ficent acts:
a. He forgives all our iniquities (v.
3). This he is able to do because of
the righteous provision he made for
sin, in the atonement wrought out by
Jesus Christ.
b. He heals all our diseases (v. 3).
This healing refers to the body and
the soul. He .first renovates - maji's
moral nature and then his physical na
ture.
c. He redeems the life from destruc
tion (v. 4). Redemption implies the
payment of all demands against the
debtor.
d. He satisfies the mouth (v. 5).
God satisfies all legitimate desires, so
that youth is renewed like the eagte’s.
In redemption man’s original capac
ities are restored to their native vigor.

A NOVEL tea chop baa been set up In a stable op a farm situated near the
Bols de Boulogne in Paria that la proving quite popular with (he. ladles,
of the smart set A large pane of glass Is all that separates the tea drinkers,
who seem to prefer the fresh milk to the tea, from the stables and If they wish
they may try their hand at milking the cows.
e. He executes righteousness and
judgment (vv. 6-12). The wrongs of
life are righted and man is thus re
lieved of the burdens which they en
tail
f. He pities his children (vv. 13, 14).
The pity of an earthly father is but a
faint suggestion of the sympathetic
compassion- of the heavenly Father
4. He chastens his children (Heb.
12:5-11).
a. THe fact (vv. 5, 6). Every one
•kho is God’s spiritual child experi
ences chastening, an unmistakable evi
dence of son^hip.
b. How it should be received (vv.
6-81. ft Is the tukeirof tiis love (v. 6).’
•c. The purpose of (vv. 9-11). It Is
to bring the child into subjection to
induce reverence (v. 9). It is to pro
duce hottness (v, 10). It ls to develop
fruits of righteousness (v. 11).
5. He cares for his children (Matt
6:11, 25). The child of God who has
come to know his heavenly Father as
the almighty Creator and Preserver,
whose very essential being is love, will
trust the Father for daily bread with
out anxiety or fear.
III. The Heavenly F^fcer Revealed
In Jeeus Christ (John 14:8, 9).
The supreme purpose of the coming
of the Son of God was to reveal God
(John 1:8). Only a being of God's es
sential nature could reveal him. Jesus
Christ became man In order that be
might- reveal God to man. Only the
one who knows Jesus Christ knows
God. J
IV. How Men Come to Know God as
the Father (John 3:3-6).
It. Is through regeneration. The new
birth is absolutely essential tb a
knowledge of God as the Father. We
are children of God by faith In Jesus
Christ (Gal. 3^26).
V. Our Responsibility to the Heav
enly Father (Matt. 6:24-34).
The true child who has come to
know his Father—-
1. Will give him undivided affection
(v. 24). The child of God makes the
unequivocal choice between the heav
enly Father and the world.
2. He will not be anxious about food
and clothing, as stated above.
8. He will diligently seek the king
dom of God and bis righteousness (w.
88, 34). He will subordinate temporal
things to the things of the Spirit This
la not a warning against legitimate
forethought hot against anxious worry.
