Act; Pbilippians 4:$.
Memory Selection: Proverb*
With the commandment against
adaltery are given In the present
Eason references 4» other forms of
flamoralitf. We are to avoid the
M*h of the wicked. We cannot al-
msga escape temptation, but we can
beep as far as possible from the way
eg temptation. Do not visit places of
•evil and court temptation.
M la better to learn of wicked
from a distance. Hear the
of the wise man of old con-
the insidious nature of vie*
thy heart with all diligence;
out of it are the issues of life.”
writer saw an old-time water-
Wm trough filled with muddy water,

Ms spring from which the water
' esnae. Cleanse the fountain of life
: oast the stream that issues will be
1 wane and clear. As a man “thinketh
> ho his heart, so is he.”
‘ "Blessed are the pure in heart, for
shall see God.” Nothing can
prepare a man to see God
know Him than purity of motive
regard to all things. And with
will come not a dimming of
but a growing perception of
good.
s the great passage of Paul in
plans we find practically all
g things requisite to lofty Chris-
i character. If we think on these

grace of God. If we follow the

ENCOURAGE CHILDREN IN HOUSE PLANNING f
I P you see a man working with
pencil and paper on bus or street
car these days, the chances are a
crossword puzzle no longer occupies
him—he Is far more apt to be
sketching plans for the new house
he hopes to build for his family
when he can get materials and la
bor. And where a woman’s pocket-
book used to bulge with shopping
lists and recipes it now holds pen
ciled designs for bookcases and built
In cupboards. These are signs of the
times, for most of
us are living In
more crowded
conditions than
we like, and en-
Joying a new
house on paper
helps the waiting
time seem shorter.
But are the chil
dren included in
this paper stage
of the new house?
They should be. Din's school note
book and Laura's diary should be
Just as full of sketches for their own
rooms and for things they'd like to
| see blifit Into the new house as are
! Father's pockets and Mother's purse.
So dent de all year house
planning when the children are
asleep. Let them have the fan of
saggestlng improvements they've
admired In homes they have
- visited, for children get about
Into mere playmate's homes
than parents are apt to visit.
The two closets with the befit
In dressing table between them
which Laura admires In a
friend's room may be the very
way to solve her school girl neej!
Mr a closet for playthings, since
she hasn't outgrown her fond- !
ness for them, and a closet for
the teen clothes in whleh she’s
beginning to take an Interest.
Beside M's a great Incentive to
mstniss he able to keep
clothes separate from boxes and
other objects.
And Don Is sure to have Ideas for
a workshop that his parents
couldn’t possibly dream up as sat
isfactorily.
Then, adults enjoy a quiet, order- .
ly existence—children like noise and
excitement. Why not plan room ar
rangements together, from both
points of view, since you have to live
in the house as a family.
Let the children in on the bud
geting, too. Corners "always have to.
be cut when you are finally con
fronted with actual costs and this
provides lessons in thrift and mak
ing choices. If you can’t have both
the ground floor screened porch and
the screened sun gallery over the
gartege, let the children have a vote
on which means the most in com
fort and enjoyment.
The children can contribute to
the finances, too. both by earning
small sums and by giving up some
accustomed luxury. If Laura wants
more expensive wall paper than the
budget allows, she may be willing
to do with fewer sweaters and
frocks to help pay for it. And sav
ing for a cherished new room is a
wonderful incentive for cutting
down on sodas!
It is one of life’s happiest experi
ences, building a home. Even birds
and animals enjoy it. So don’t make
the mistake of thinking that chil
dren lack this instinct for, and pride
in ownership of a home.
