THE WOLF COMES BACK
By Lew Phillips
Rev. Robert H. Harper
God’s Plan for the Home.
Lesson for November 1: Deuteron
omy 6: 4-9; Ephesians 5: 21—6: 4.
Golden Text: Psalms 68: 6.
The impressive passage from
Deuteronomy shows that more than
three thousand years ago the chil
dren of Israel were taught to love
God and to teach his command
ments to their sons and daughters.
The words of the Lord were to be
in the hearts of parents and were
to be constantly brought to the
attention of children.
God’s plan for the home there
fore includes proper care that all
the relationships of the home shall
be right. The husband and father
is rightly to be regarded as the
head of the home, but he is to be
worthy of the place. The place he
has is not to be that of a selfish
tyrant. He is to be loving and kind
toward his wife, and wise and af
fectionate and considerate toward
his children.
Children are admonished to obey
their parents, for that is right in
the eyes of God. But the injunc
tions to parents, already noticed,,
indicate that parents should be
worthy of obedience and should
exemplify in their own living the
high things they require of their
children.
The Old Testament and the New
unite in giving us a comprehen
sive plan of the Heavenly Father
for the earthly home, and the mem
bers of every family should care
fully consider their several places
and the responsibilities involved.

N. Y. The new Fall-Winter Fashion
From Benjamin P. Forbes, Cleve
land, Ohio: I remember back in
the horse-and-buggy days when
Bamum’s show caravan passed
out home near Norwalk, Ohio.
One night we children went to
bed full of excitement over the
news that the following day the
big show would probably pass our
house on its way to the next stand.
Early the next morning, about
4 o’ clock, we dashed out to ex
amine the dust in the road and see
if by chance the show had slipped
through while we slept. We figured
we could tell if an elephant had
passed by his foot prints in the
dust.
A little later in the day the
parade came by and there was
the much advertised elephant,
“Jumbo,” the biggest in captivity,
which Barnum had bought, accord
ing to the Encyclopedia Ameri
cana, for $10,000 in England.
The animal weighed six tons and
was exhibited in America for about
three years. Then while on tour in
Canada in 1885, Jumbo is sup
posed to have seen a baby elephant
in danger of being hit by a train.
Rushing forward he is reported to
have thrown the little elephant
from the track, but in so doing was
struck by the train and killed.
Incidentally, Jumbo's skeleton is
preserved at the Smithsonian In
stitute in Washington, D. C.
O LD Pop Wilkins lifted his huge
hulk from the chair beside the
big pot-bellied stove to wait on the
stranger. If it had been someone
from the village, he would have
stayed put, and told him to help
himself. A well dressed, slick-look
ing stranger, however, command
ed better manners.
“Good morning. Sir." Pop said,
with his big open smile. “What can
I do for you?”
The stranger answered Pop’s
cheeriness with a smile in his
voice. “Good morning. Let me have
some cigars, please.”
Pop walked behind the cigar
case while the stranger looked over
the assortment of open boxes be
hind the glass.
“What’ll it be?” Pop asked, open
ing the back of the case.
“Those fifteen cent Panatellas,
1 guess.” ,
Pop brought out the box and set
it on the counter. While the strang
er picked out four cigars Pop nar
rowed his sharp grey eyes and sized
him up from head to foot. An old
habit from his days as sheriff in
these parts. He never liked to open
up with a stranger till he felt his
hunch ‘click’.
The man handed Pop a dollar
bill, accepted his change, and said,
“Nice weather we’re having.”
**Yes. It is,” Pop answered la
conically.
“Had much rain this year?" He
was feeling through his pockets
when Pop handed him a packet of
matches. The man said. “Thank
you,” and lighted one of the
matches.
Pop’s great weight made his feet
sore, and he wanted to go back to
his chair beside the stove. The
stranger hadn’t ’clicked’ so far. and
Pop wasn’t encouraging conversa
tion. However, the man, between
puffs, asked about the crops, the
market prices, and how was busi
ness in generaL He leaned an elbow
on the case watching the smoke
drift from his cigar. A lean, dark
man with half-hidden eyes, he
seemed to look at you and right on
hrough. His nostrils dilated slow
ly as he sniffed the tangy aroma of
the smoke.
“It’s been a good growing sea
son,” Pop answered indifferently,
“and the farmers have a little
money, now.”
“Speaking of paoney,” the stran
ger said, looking quizzically at Pop,
“did you ever catch the burglar
that held you up three years ago,
and cleaned out your cash reg
ister?”
A slow flush spread over Pop’s
round face. Then a little-boy grin
wrinkled his eyes, as he raised a
hand to scratch the fringe of hair
that hung like a gray curtain
around his bald dome.
“No, we never caught him. Funny
thing about that . . . Just a minute,
and I’ll tell you what happened.”
Pop stepped a little to his right
and slipped his hand under the
counter. His actions were hidden
by the cigar case. His hand came
out holding - gun, and in a split
second he was aiming it straight
at the stranger’s heart.
There was sudden fear In the
man’s face. He gulped, then blurt
ed, “What’s the idea, old man?”
Pop’s gray eyes glinted danger
ously. “Just stay the way you are,
stranger, and this gun won’t go
off. You see, I was so ashamed of
bein’ robbed I never told nobody.
Me, a former sheriff. I couldn’t
starfd the laughs. So. that robber
and me wer5 the only two that ever
knew it We have a sayin’ in
these hills that a wolf always
comes back to his kill Stranger,
you came back!”

I REMEMBER'
BY THE OLD TIMERS
From Mrs. W. H. Hilbert, Corn
ing, Kansas: Rocently we pur
chased flour in a paper sack. The
first paper flour sack I ha 1 seen
since I left Pennsylvania years
ago. It recalled to my mind the
flour mills operated by water pow
er and the millers coming to the
stores with their products in white
covered wagons. '
I also remember when the cook
stove had a “stove plate” with a
deep place underneath where the
ashes from the fire were stored.
The plate would be removed and
the ashes lifted out with a shovel.
I recall my mother would chide us
and say “if we didn’t soon lift the
ashes we would have to hang up
the stove plate.”

From Mrs. D. H. Hallenan, Belle
ville, N. J.: I remember my moth
er making soft soap for the year.
She filled a barrel half full with
hemlock branches. On top of that
she put sand and ashes. The bar
rel was put on a bench with a hole
at the bottom. She poured water in
to the barreL It seeped through
and came out of the hole at the
bottom. This was lye. When she
had enough lye collected, set up
an iron kettle on a crossbar. The
lye was up in the kettle with fat
collected from the kitchen and
some water. This was cooked until
the mixture thickened. This soft
soap was stored in the ceUar in a
big barreL It was used to wash
dishes, clothes and scrub floors. I
have washed many dishes with this
kind of soap.
