The rooms were large and airy. So there wasn’t usually much comfort except on the side towards the fire. It often got too hot, and you had to keep turning. But we were used to that and enjoyed it. v Today we have a furnace, auto matic! It comes on and has the whole house warm when we get up. Now, folks, to me that’s one of the greatest luxuries our times have brought. Compare with it the cold, clammy house of the past, with frosty floors and icy air com ing through the cracks, when you had to get up in your shirttail and barefooted before dawn and start a slow fire in the fireplace. For bath robes and house slippers were unknown to us then. But I still like the wood fire. It sings as it burns, and casts soft dancing shadows on the floor and walls at hight. It is a cozy and friendly thing, surely in league with the goddess of sleep. For who can resist its mellow, flicker ing glow and gentle crackle when the hour is late. As when a kid, I still like to poke into it, and see the sparks fly, and the flame leap higher. And, best of all, on a cold night, when no duties are calling for early tomorrow, I like to snooze before it with the children, as they sit on the floor there and pop corn or roast peanuts on the hearth. Yes, that furnace is still mighty fine to* moderate the house. But there is no substitute for the open fire to sit around and read, or talk, or just soak. A living room is a sort of empty thing to me without it. Reading is cramped, conver sation is hard, and complete re- s * NEED EXTRA MONEY TO PAY YOUR RILLS $5 to $50 We have the , money to make a quick, courteous and confidential loan to help you with your clothing problems.

Arizona, when I was nine. Father had been there several months and had a freighting business. We children had some strange experiences In this land, so dif ferent from our former home, but we never wanted to return. There were stray burros, several in a band, and we had fun riding them. At one place we lived the watet was so salty we had to haul water from the*Gila River In a big bar rel that gave the warm water a very decided whiskey flavor We came to Phoenix In 1893 in big wagons . . . camped six weeks at the edge of the Old Cemetery while father and a friend searched for a home in the valley . . When we reached our pretty 20-acre home there was no well but a ditch with running water . . Many In dians passed frequently, the bucks riding a pony while the squaw with a big load on her head jogged along side the horse ... When an animal in the fields died from nat ural causes, several Indians would arrive on the scene from "no where’*: they were orderly, worked fast cutting up the meat, nc- fussing among themselves. We had a sheep pasture and some fig trees in it. The cranky big ram would guard the figs from boys on their way to a big canal nearby to swim . . . He always failed to catch them, big kept them there (up the trees) for long pe riods of time V Newberry Men In Service At Stations Around The World luxation is just not there like when a living fire is with you. It sooths as it burns. And, as the hour latens, the dying embers cast fainter shadows, leading to drowsiness and forgetful sleep. But when crip and cold morning dawns, I want to be awakened by the click of that furnace coming on. CPL. NORTHERN J. REID 9TH DIV., GERMANY — Cpl. Northern J.

Sports Afield (By TED KESTipG) Rev. Robert H. Harper The Grac* of God. . Lesson for February 6:1 John 4: 10; Ephesians 2: 4-9; Titus 2:11-14. Golden Text: 1 John 4:10. John tells us that God has re vealed himself to us as the God of love. And he reminds us that God so loves us that He gave Jesus to be the propitiation for our sins. Paul wrote the Ephesians that God in the richness of his mercy and the breadth of his love toward men had given them life through Christ that in ages to come they might have reason to show the "exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.’* So it is by the grace of God that we are saved through our faith in Jesus. It is not by works that a man does that he is saved, for he would then have reason to boast. It is not by any worth or merit of his own. Nor by any goodness of his own that he may plead. By the grace of God a man is to be saved, by the benevolent and loving attitude of God toward the man he has created, and with the power to turn toward God as the flowers turn toward sun. It is the bounty or favor of God in which he offers a man life and hope if he will believe in the Saviour. And this same grace is given to men in the doing of all good things, to fit them for loving service in their Master’s name. It sets be fore them the bright hope of see ing Jesus face to face in Hie aft er-time, it leads them to look be- yond the grave. After going over the January issue of Sports Afield, one sen tence stuck in my mind; A trained nose should be standard equipment for woodland trips. This was a brand new idea. .As Ewart Autry, author of the ar ticle commented, ‘T had always thought of my beak as something stuck on my face to breathe through and to get a bad cold in. The odors it picked up were merely incidental.” You expect your eyes to note the difference between a bird and a squirrel and with your ears, you can sort the cry of a goose from the bark of a dog. The sense of smell isn’t as highly developed as the sense of sight or hearing, but it can be pretty effective when you’re in the woods. Did you know it is possible to smell a snake? One day afield a friend of Autry’s stopped dead in the path and announced he smelled a snake—a moment’s search and there it was, coiled behind a nearby log. This man had “trained his nose.” He explained that when he was in the woods and caught a special scent, he always took time to try and locate its source. If he found it, he'd sniff at it for several minutes and try to file it away in his mind. After doing this for several years, he found that the odors of the woods were no longer just jumbled mixtures hut separate and distinct things that he could usually pin down. After the snake experience, Autry decided it might be a good idea to give his sniffer a little education. The first lesson was hard. Down in a creek valley he caught a faint but very pleasant scent. “I started to crisscross and sniff the air like a hound search ing for a lost trail. It took me 15 minutes to pinpoint the scent to a vine of wild grapes. I pulled down a bunch and sniffed it care fully, then stuck it in my pocket and gave it an occasional sniff during the rest of the day. From then on I could easily identify the scent of wild grapes the mo ment my nose caught it From grapes I progressed to other things and was soon able to sort many odors of the woods that formerly meant nothing.” * Here’s an even better example of what “the nose that knows” means to sportsmen: One day I came across a friend who had just shot a 10-point buck. To my question “How did you get him” he answered “Caught his scent first.” A buck gives off a lot of scent when he’s alive and moving; with a little practice you can smell a buck a good distance, especially if the wind is right. Of course, it's different with a doe. Her scent is a lot weaker than a buck's. When you are making sand wiches for the lunch box, never use melted butter for spreading the bread before adding the spread. Melted butter has a ten dency to make the bread soggy; use creamed butter or margarine instead. ^Ss 4 &?/, 5?Pn 'am <3 ' 1/r WE EHDORSE POINT 5 OF THE m "fl - % ’V % -■'v ‘ vwa >r > ■ - - >. ; I ; .
