Y OU can’t make fast moves when
handling bees, so a beeman
learns to be slow and careful no mat
ter what happens. 1 remembered
that the day I stopped by Oakknoll
ranch and found a stranger sitting
In the farmhouse kitchen and watch
ing Emmy prepare a fat fryer.
Now I’ve been in love with Emmy
since she was 16. The 10 years that
ha’ j passed since then have changed
her so little that if I were buzzing
ar -und looking for something sweet,
I'd still pick Emmy. The western
sun slanting through the window
made a halo of her fair hair and her
face was flushed from the hot stove.
She waved a floury hand as she
popped a drumstick into the put
tering grease.
“Hello, Bill,’’ she said. “I want
you to meet Fuller Launson. He’s
bought the Hall place and is raising
horses. Where'd you come from?”
“Sierra foothills," I answered,
“I’m taking my bees down to Red
lands to pollinate the Farland or
chard.”
“Bill has a pollinating service,”
Emmy explained. “Arsenic sprays
kill so many bees that orchardists
pay him to bring his hives, so the
trees will bear fruit.”
“I see,” Launson said, the wisp of
a black mustache over his thin lips
barely moving.
I couldn’t make up my mind
whether he was one of those rob
ber-bees that steal honey from an
other hive or whether he was a
drone that lets the workers sup
port him. He had black eyes and a
waspish face. And there was con
tempt in the way he looked at my
swollen hands that mighty near put
me in a stinging mood. I can’t
bother with gloves when I’m hand
ling beehives all the time.
I asked about his horses while Em
my cooked supper, but he seemed to
resent my dropping in and wouldn’t
say much. However, he admitted
that his old man had plenty of money
and thought that since Fuller Laun
son wasn’t much good in his busi
ness, he might as well try to raise
'horses.
Now Emmy has a heart as big as a
six-super hive and she’s always feel
ing sorry for queer characters. She
never talks much about herself, but
she's a good listener. Still I couldn’t
figure what she saw in Launson, ex
cept that he had a college degree
and she respects education. I could
have told Launson other things about
her. She’s been lonely since her
folks died, however, so if she found
him good company, that was all right
with me. A beeman learns not to
disturb the queen unless he has to.
After supper I had to leave to get
hives set up in the fields of the Red
lands orchard before sun-up. Laun
son showed no signs of swarming, so
I guessed he planned to visit a while
longer with Emmy. But a beeman
doesn’t jump to conclusions. As 1
say, he learns to be slow and care
ful.
It was two weeks before I got
back to Oakknoll again. Launson sat
in the same chair, as if he hadn't
moved in all that time. He didn’t
seem real friendly, and acted bored
when I asked about his horses.
Well, supper didn’t go so well that
night. Emmy treated me as she al
ways does, but Launson sulked as
bees do on a rainy day when they
can't gather pollen.
After supper, Launson said,
“there's a good movie in town. Like
to go, Emily?”
She started shaking her head, but I
spoke up.
“You go right along. I’ve been
driving nights and working days until
I’m too wore out to be fit company
for anyone. I’ll just catch a few
SLOW AND CAREFUL

winks on the sofa and push along
about 11.”
“Oh, Bill,” Emmy said anxiously,
“do you have to work so hard? You
haven’t an ounce of flesh!”
“No money’d keep me driving this
way,” I admitted. “Now that the
war’s over and we got to help feed
the world, we need bigger fruit crops.
weak chin would hurt my swollen
hands much. I decided not to try it,
“Lauson,” I said, “I’m putting
some hives out under the trees here.
If you ain’t afraid of bees, I want
you to give me a hand."
When I came inside later to wash
up, Emmy was just putting the last
steaming dishes on the table.
Well, supper didn’t go as well that night. Emmy treated me as
she always does, but Launson sulked as bees do on a rainy day
when they can’t gather pollen.
But the spring pollinating is almost
over and soon I can take it easier.”
“Not here, I hope,” Launson said
unpleasantly, when Emmy went into
the bedroom to get her hat.
I knew then how bees feel when
you shake their hive on a cold day
but I was too tired to argue. I was
asleep before they drove away and
the alarm-clock awakened me be
fore they returned.
It was nearly a month before I
could get back. When I drove past
the old Hall place, it looked like
Launson hadn’t given his horses
much care. He stepped out of the
house after I’d stopped the truck,
and spoke as if he owned Oakknoll.
“You back?”
“Yep,” I said. “Just in time for
supper.”
“I didn’t know Emily was expect
ing you,” he snapped.
I wondered whether Launson's
“Where’s Mr. Launson?” She
asked.
“Last I saw of him,” I Said, tuck
ing in my napkin, “he was running
toward his house with a veil of bees
trailing behind him. He dropped a
hive he was carrying and Instead of
backing away slow and careful like,
he began swatting bees. They kind
of resented it.”
Emmy didn’t say anything for a
minute. “I’m glad he’s gone,” she
said, and smiled. “I’d have told him
things before, but I get so lonely
when you’re away. Bill. What made
him drop the hive?
“I guess something I said startled
him. You see, he’d just advised me
to move on, saying I’d never get any
where with you, Emmy.”
“The idea! What’d you say to that,
BiU?”
“Why, .1 told him he was crazy—
that we’d been married 10 years.”
YOU CAN’T BUN AWAY
One of my younger friends, a man
in whom I always have had con
siderable confidence, did something
last week that caused my confidence
to be shaken. I’ll tell you about it.
When the /pressure in a job he has
held for two or three years became
too great, he quit. "I am going to
pull stakes and go to another town,”
he told me. “I just couldn’t take it
any more.”
I say that my confidence was
shaken. What I mean is this, that
whenever anyone tries to run away
from a crisis, a situation, a condi
tion or himself, he’s doomed to fail.
Yet every day you see someone
who is trying to run away from him
self. Psychologists are very much
interested in the roads which these
runaways take, and one of their first
considerations in evaluating a per
sonality which is broken or unhappy
is escape.
You probably know that you live
every day with a conflict raging in
side yourself. Sometimes the con
flict is subdued by a quiet sort of
guerrilla warfare of the mind. At
other times it reaches the battle

point. Only rarely is there total
peace. —
When this conflict becomes too
formidable, too threatening, you do
the obvious thing—you try to run.
That seems to be the thing to do,
but often the escape is worse than
the conflict—and more lives are
damaged by these escape or fight
mechanisms than by any one thing.
Maybe you’d like to have me tell
you very briefly about the various
escape routes that the mind follows
when things get too hot.
They are 13. First comes regres
sion, which means to go backward,
do childish things. Then comes ex
troversion—that means to turn to
excessive activity to cover up the
conflict. The opposite of that is in
troversion—to think excessively, to
dodge real issues.
Rationalization is to indulge in
false thinking, while segregation is
not to let your right hand know what
your left hand is doing.
When you practice repression, you
forget unpleasant things; and when
you disassociate, you pass the buck.
Sometimes you resort to conversion
—that means to have a breakdown
or illness in place of a conflict. Dis
placement is to worry over one thing
when another is to blame, and pro
jection is to attribute your own faults
to others.
Another escape is called identifica
tion; that means to form phantasies.
When you follow compensation, you
overdo some particular thing in order
to overcome your inadequacies.
The final escape route is the only
one which is wholeheartedly recom
mended. It is called sublimation—
that means to turn the effect of the
conflict into some useful channel

Lesson for April 4, 1948

Soybeans Provide Protein
To Offset High Food Cost
High food costs make it difficult
for the homemaker to know how
she can get the most for her food
dollar. Protein is one of the most
essential protective elements in the
human diet, say extension service
nutritionists.
Foods which contain protein —
meats, eggs, milk, cheese—are high
in cost, but they must not be left
out of the diet. Cheaper cuts of
meats, meat stretchers, egg dishes
and cheese dishes will help supply
the body’s need for protein. Other
sources of protein are soybeans,
dried beans and peas. These vege
tables come nearest to meat, eggs,
milk and cheese as body builders.
They also contain Vitamin B1 and
iron.
For homemakers not familiar with
i the soybean, this information is of-
j fered: “Soybeans contain protein of
j high quality, similar to animal pro»
tein. They can be used in place of
meat in the diet. Soybeans are good
sources of usable iron and other
mineral, such as calcium, phos-
| pherus, as well as an excellent j
source of vitamins of the B-com- j
plex. Fresh, green soybeans are j
rich in Vitamin A. They are high in ,
fat, and sprouted soybeans ar» a
useful source of Vitamin C.”
T HIS quarter we study the Cap
tivity and Return of the Jews,
using the Books of Ezekiel, Daniel,
Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Haggai,
Zechariah and Ma-
lachi. Sunday’s les
son is found in Eze
kiel 1-4 and 33:1-9.
It would be well
for us to read again
the history of this
most interesting
man Ezekiel—
how he came to be
among the cap
tives by the river
Chebar. He is one
of the most attrac
tive personalities in
the Old Testament — a man of sur
passing culture and charm—and yet
enabled to “sit where they sat.”

A MESSENGER OF GOD
I^ZEKIEL could never have adapt-
ed himself to the role of minis
tering to the captive slaves apart
from the knowledge that’he was the
messenger of God — the messenger
of God’s hope to broken, beaten
souls.
God spoke to his people throngh
Ezekiel. He speaks to his people
today through chosen messengers
—parents, teachers, the Bible, the
Holy Spirit. God may be speak
ing to you today.
* • •
HEAR YE THE WORD
E ZEKIEL'S approach to the Jews
in captivity was by the author
ity of God’s direct message to them
through him. Ezekiel was faithful
to God’s appointment and mission.
He knew that what he had to say to
the Jews meant their hope of re
lease and return.
He studied their plight. He
studied their mood. And then he
spoke to them. But not only did
he speak to them, telling them
what God wanted them to know,
but he moved among them. He
loved them.
He had God’s message, and he
went in God’s mood of compassion.
We cannot help people until we un
derstand them and love them.
»
GOD’S WATCHMAN
E ZEKIEL reminded the people
that he had been sent from God
as a watchman, and he told them
what terrible responsibility was
upon him in warning them to re
pent and return unto God. Read Eze
kiel 33:1-9.
If the watchman faithfully
warns the people, and they refuse
to heed the warning, their blood
will not be on his hands; but if
he fail to warn the people, their
blood will be on his hands. Here
is a lesson for every teacher and
preacher and parent today.
And in this same 33rd chapter,
Ezekiel goes on to declare God’s
attitude toward all sinners. “Say
unto them, As I live, saith the Lord
God, I have no pleasure in the
death of the wicked; but that the
wicked turn from his way and live
—turn ye, turn ye from your evil
ways; for why will ye die?”
» • •
A WATCHMAN UNTO EXILES
*«QON of man, I have made thee
a watchman unto the house
of Israel,” Ezekiel 3:17.
This was the explicit commission
of God to Ezekiel. And grandly did
Ezekiel accept and execute to the
limit of his ability that commission.
The Jews were far from their be
loved home. They were driven by
hard masters. They could not sing
the song of the Lord in a strange
land. They had hanged their harps
on the willow trees.
With a sensitive soul, Ezekiel
comes to them with the word of
hope. He reminds them of the
goodness ,and mercy of Jehovah
to their fathers, Abraham, Isaac
and Jacob. He lifts their droop
ing spirits with clear and ringing
words of promise. He pleads with
them to confess their sins and
claim the pardoning mercy of a
loving God.
He used numerous means of gain
ing their attention — symbols of
their former communion with God.
Patiently he traced the dealings
of God with them and their fathers
before them.
They listened, and all who heed
ed the pleas of the faithful watch
man were saved and restored to
faith in the goodness and mercy
of God.
We, too, are watchmen among
exiles. Let us learn the high art of
Ezekiel in our ministry as watch
man.
The churches will fail if the les-;
sons of Sunday are forgotten on
Monday and are laid aside for spe- i
cial observance on only one day of l
the week. — Wayne Morse, U. S. 1
senator from Oregon.

Soup Favorite Dish
For Every Weather;
Here's How It’s Done
Soup is an easy way to have
lunch quickly for youngsters who
come home to eat. Soup may be
made ahead of time, reheated and
served easily with sandwiches or
salad for a well-balanced lunch.
Soup making is one of the old
est of cooking arts known to tjie
homemaker, and though we do not
serve it as often as did our ances-
tojrs, a fragrant bowl of soup on
a brisk cool day has lost none of
its charm.
We like soup for many reasons.
First of all, there’s its delicious
aroma and its good, filling qual
ity-
If your serve
a hearty soup,
you need little
else with it, per
haps just a salad
and light des
sert. Soups are
especially noted
for nourishment. Meats and vege
tables they have plentifully; and
if it’s a cream soup you are serv
ing, well, that’s an easy way to
get milk and cream into the diet.
Soup is a good filler-upper if
you feed a hungry crowd of men
who work out-of-doors all day
long. It’s also a good stimulant
for thhe appetite.
Soups made with quantities of
milk are especially fine to serve
for luncheon if you have children.
They’re easy to make and you
don’t have to worry if the young
sters are a little late in getting
home because soup is easy to keep
hot, and will not spoil with a bit
of extra cooking.

onion
2 tablespoons fat
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups rich milk
V/z teaspoons salt
Yz teaspoon pepper
LYNN SAYS:
How to Serve Soup: If you
are serving a thin soup, the
proper dish is a two-handled
cup of some sort. This is used
because it is quite correct for
people to lift them up and drink
the soup.
Hearty soups such as chow
ders are served in soup plates,
bowls or marmites. Never serve
a chowder as a first course be
cause it is much too heavy a
soup for this type of eating.
Cream soups may be cor
rectly served as a first course,
as our thin soup, but do not
make the servings too gener
ous or the remainder of the
dinner will go begging.
If the soup is to be served
hot, it must be piping hot.
Make sure the family is ready
to come to dinner before dish
ing it out.
Chilled soups are good on
warm nights, and may be
served in the two - handled
dishes suggested above.
Accompaniments for soup
should be small and dainty, at
tractively served on small
plates with doilies.

Homemakers who have large
families to feed will do well to
make a large pot
full of rich, deli
cious soup stock.
This can be done
on an afternoon
when you’re
ironing or mend
ing, so that you
can look at the pot occasionally
to see that it is kept simmering
slowly for several hours. Then
the stock can be served with
dumplings, vegetables, noodles
and rice, a different way for sev
eral days.
BROWN STOCK
5 pounds beef soupbone
V/z quarts cold water
8 peppercorns
5 cloves
1 bay leaf
2 sprigs parsley
3 sprigs thyme
1 tablespoon salt
Yz cup diced carrots
Yz cup diced turnips
2 large onions, sliced
Cut lean meat from the bones
and brown % of it in the marrow
taken from the bones. Place the
rest of the meat and bones in A
large kettle with the cold water
and let stand for one hour. Add
browned meat and all seasonings
and bring to a boil. Reduoe heat
and let simmer for 5 hours. Add
the vegetables and cook V/z hours
more. When cold, remove layer
of fat that forms on top.
In making meat and vegetable
soups it is very important not to
add water once the soup starts
simmering.
Soups such as chowders may
be served at the table from a
tureen. A salad and dessert com
plete the meal and give hearty
nourishment even though mem
bers of the family may be engaged
in heavy work.
Fish chowders are hearty
enough to serve with just a salad,
preferably fruit, and a light des
sert. Here is one made with cod
that is truly delicious:
FORTY-FATHOM CHOWDER
2-3 pounds fillet of cod,

Yu cup diced fat salt pork

Cut fillets of fish crosswise in
2-inch strips. Fry out salt pork

fish and cook until it can be sepa

Fight Newcastle Disease
A new advance in the efforts of
veterinary science to meet the New
castle disease threat to the nation’s
poultry industry has been made.
Close on the heels of a promising
new method of vaccination against
the disease, other research workers
have discovered a “highly reliable”
method for diagnosing Newcastle
disease in chickens by means of
blood tests. The new method is
based on the effect of Newcastle
serum and virus on the agglutina
tion of red blood cells. Newcastle
disease causes a combination of
nervous and respiratory symptoms.
Many of these are cha.acteristic of
other poultry ailments. That is why
diagnosis has been one of the great
difficulties in coping with it.
