Our Rudder
Little things! Life and death,
prosperity and ruin, happiness
and misery, hang upon little
things; they are like the linchpin
to the wheel, bn which depends
the safety of the vehicle; they are
like the rudder of the vast mass
which it guides; like the slender
nerves to the bulky muscles.—G.

Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On
No matter how many medicines
you have tried for your cough, chest
cold or bronchial irritation, you can
get relief now with Creomulsion.
Serious trouble may be brewing and
you cannot afford to take a chance
with anything less than Creomul

of the trouble to aid nature to
soothe and heal the inflamed mem*

is loosened and expelled.
Even if other remedies have
failed, don’t be discouraged, your
druggist is authorised to guarantee
Creomulsion and to refund your
money if you are not satisfied with
results from the very first bottle.
Get Creomulsion right now. CAdvJ

Fortune has rarely condescend
ed to be the companion of genius.

JOHN’S PICTURE OF THE
TRIAL AND CRUCIFIXION
Great Father, Great Son
D ARELY does a great father
^ transmit his genius to his son.
°*2t the Hopkinsons of Philadelphia
were exceptions to that rule.
Francis Hopkinson, born in 1737,
was the first scholar entered at the
University of Pennsylvania (then
the College of Philadelphia) and
was graduated from its first class.
He held several positions of. im
portance in Penn’s colony, then
moved to New Jersey. There he
was a member of the provincial
council until he was elected to the
Continental congress from New Jer
sey and thus became one of the
signers of the Declaration of Inde
pendence. But other facts make
him more notable than almost any
of the other 55 signers of that docu
ment.
He wrote an allegory in which he
recounted the wrongs of the colo
nies and did much to fan the spirit
of revolution. He wrote the famous
song “The Battle of the Kegs”
satirizing the British scare over an
attempt to blow up their ships with
a crude submarine invented by a
certain David Bushnell, and this
song became the favorite of Wash
ington’s soldiers.
But most important is the fact
that evidence exists which shows
that he was the designer of the first
Stars and Stripes as our national
flag (the Betsy Ross tradition to the
contrary notwithstanding) and that
he had a hand in designing the first
Great Seal of this nation.
His son, Joseph Hopkinson, born
in 1770, followed closely in his fa
ther’s footsteps. He also was grad
uated from the University of Penn
sylvania, studied law and held sev
eral positions in the state and fed
eral government. He helped found
the Philadelphia Academy of Fine
Arts, served as its president for
many years and was vice-president
of the American Philosophical soci
ety which his father had helped
found.
But he is best remembered for a
song which he wrote—thus emulat
ing his father again. It was “Hail
Columbia” which was the only na
tional song of this republic until
Francis Scott Key wrote "The Star
Spangled Banner.”

First “America’s Sweetheart”
T ONG before a popular movie ac-
tress was given the title of
“America’s Sweetheart” there was
another. Ask any man of fifty years
or upwards and he will tell you her
name. It was Annie Oakley.
She was bom in a log cabin In
Darke county, Ohio, in 1865 and her
full name was Phoebe Anne Oakley
Mozee. Her lather died when she
was six and one of the few posses
sions which he left was a Kentucky
long rifle. Little Anne, who was
something of a tomboy, soon began
using this weapon to help fill the
family larder with quail, squirrels
and rabbits. She became an un
usual markswoman and the fame
cf her skill spread to Cincinnati
where hotel keepers had been buy
ing the game which she killed.
When she was fifteen a noted
sharpshooter named Frank E. But
ler came to Cincinnati. He was ac
customed to issue a challenge to all
comers in a shooting match. This
challenge was taken up by one of
Anne’s hotel-keeping patrons who
urged her to shoot against Butler.
The girl not only, won the match but
she won Butler’s heart as well and
a year or so later they were mar
ried. She began taking part in her
husband’s shooting act and, being
a skilled showman, he pushed her
more and more into the limelight
and kept himself more and more in
the background.
Then “Buffalo Bill” Cody or*
ganized his Wild West show and in
1885 the “Butler and Oakley” act
joined it. But it wasn’t long until
the second half of the act was the
whole act and as Annie Oakley she
started on the career which made
her the idol of Young America.
“Little Sure Shot” she was named
by the famous chief, Sitting Bull,
when he went out with Buffalo Bill’s
show and as “Little Sure Shot” she
became famous, not only through
out America but all over Europe as
well.
When Cody took his show abroad
her marksmanship thrilled every
one who saw it—and that included
dukes, princes and kings.
One of her stunts was to use play
ing cards as targets and these
cards, punctured by her bullets, be
came treasured scuvenirs. In those
days showmen who handed out free
passes always punched a hole or
two in them, thus saving a mis
count when the day’s proceeds were
counted. Once a ba^pball magnate
looked at a card which had been
so thoroughly perforated that little
was left. “Huh! Looks like Annie
Oakley’s shot at it!” he grunted.
And from that day free passes be
came “Annie Oakleys.”
The name of' this remarkable
woman whose career came to an
end in 1926 is thus perpetuated in
our “slanguage.” But in the hearta
of thousands- of Americans today,
the boy* of yesteryear, it is en
shrined as “America’s Sweetheart.’*

YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—
Christ’■ Croat and Mina. -
The cx oss is accepted throughout
the wond as the emblem of the
Christ 1 mi church. The death of the
Son of God for the sins of the world
is a focal point not only in history
but in theology. It is for this reason
that we give so much study to the
cross and its meaning. .
Calvary comes between Christmas
and Easter. Jesus came as the
Babe of Bethlehem—God incarnate
in the flesh. He died for you and
me. Death could not hold him. He
arose in victory. He is now at the
Father’s right hand, an Advocate
with the Father. He is coming
again. Each statement is an in
dispensable truth!
The assigned text gives only a
portion of the moving account of
the trial and crucifixion of Jesus
but suffices to bring before us in
graphic contrast four pictures—
I. Pilate—Convinced but Afraid.
Pilate was in a most difficult posi
tion. To turn one way meant to in
cur the wrath of the Jews he gov
erned. To turn the other meant that
he would be accused of disloyalty
to Rome. He was convinced that
Jesus was innocent, but was afraid
to follow his own convictions.
Many there are who follow in his
steps. They know what they ought to
do with Jesus, but fear the com
ments of friends or loss of earthly
advantafe, and take their place
with PiLte.
II. The Jews—Hostile and Hard
hearted.
The common people heard Jesus
gladly. The* loved him and would
have followed him. But the Jewish
leaders, and those whom they had
misled, hated him with malicious
hatred.
They are typical of those who In
our day have long and repeatedly
rejected the claims of the Lord
Jesus on their lives. They have
hardened their hearts against him
until they have become embittered.
Paul says, “They received not
the love of the truth that they might
be saved, and for this cause God
shall send them a strong delusion,
that they should believe a lie” (II
These.
Let those who have long rejected
the Saviour be warned lest they also
crucify afresh the Son of God.
III. The Disciples—Remembered
by the Saviour.
The thoughtful tenderness of Jesus
in providing for his mother even in
his own hour of deep suffering,
moves upon our hearts and urges
us to follow his example. This is a
hard world; let the followers of
Jesus be tender and kind.
In thus caring for his mother,
Jesus gives thought also to the new
responsibility of the disciple “whom
he loved.” What a sacred and re
sponsible trust, but is it not true
that we also are called and com
missioned by him?
IV. Jesus—The Sari oar.
To see the guiltless, spotless Son
of God hung on the cross in propitia
tion for our sins is to bring us to our
knees to cry as did Martin Luther,
“For me, for me!**
Majestic in the assurance that he
laid down his own life, he walks as
a King in the midst of all the con
fusion round about him.
He was
1. Silent. His enemies made great
hue and cry against him. Pilate
questioned him again and again.
Few were the words he spoke, but
fraught with more meaning than all
the words of men.
2. Strong. All through his life
and in his death one is impressed
by his strength. All too often sacred
art, drawing on its imagination,
presents our Lord as an effeminate
weakling. No; he was and is glor
iously strong.
3. Sympathetic. We have already
dwelt on his tender love for his
mother. Gentleness is always an
attribute of strength, not of weak
ness. .
4. The Saviour. When he cried
“It is finished,” he did so in no
weak submission to an inevitable
death. No; he had wrought out re
demption, a complete and finished
redemption for you and for me.

All It Not Gold—
For 50 years one of tha most
popular exhibits in Blackburn mu
seum has been '’a nugget of pure
Australian gold” weighing 7V4
ounces.
Tempted by the high price of
gold, the museum committee re
cently obtained the permission of
the council to sell R. The gold
was sent to a London firm of
assayers, who replied that tha
nugget consists merely of bra
ziers’ metal and lead, and does
not contain a particle of gold.
