Dr. W. A. R. Goodwin, who has been in charge of the restoration work at Williamsburg. The State Highway Commission, he said, prohibits cisfigurement of the rights of way, but the glaring posters, are only moved a few feet back upon private property, where they are just as conspicuous. “There are cortain types of ministers,” he s2id, “who would deplore the loss of the pious chance to warn people to ‘pre- pare to meet thy God' just at the en- trance to an especially narrow bridge, or the command to the traveling public to ‘believe or go to Hell." And there are equally aggressive salesmen who seize the opportunity to use the vacant space left below on the roadside rock to write in flaming red Ictters beneath the warn- ing: ‘Use our oil, it is good for burns’.” Roadside Reveals Commercial Mind. “The roadside today,” Dr. Goodwin eontinued, “is an unending witness to the commercial-mindedness of the age in which we live. A great deal of the billboard advertising is put on by non- local industries which seek a Nation- wide patronage. The factories contribute nothing directly to the financial benefit of the community. The bhesence of these advertisements decreases the value of the property nearby.” About two years a Dr. Goodwin said, the State built four miles of road between Williamsburg and Jamestown, crossing some of the most historic coun- try in America. “Already,” he said, “this road has been desecrated by the erection of three hideous cheap houses, one tourist camp, one sawmill, one chicken farm, and a horrible-looking filling station. The National Govern- ment could not use this desecrated road as part of the national highway pro- V‘i‘?led for in the Colonial monuments Urges Shrubs to Hide Ugliness. He urged that wide rights of way be secured and that these be planted to|God suitable shrubbery, such as crepe myrtle, which remains in bloom for several months and hides the ugliness behind it. He proposed plantings of dogwood and mountain laurel along mountain roads. Dr. Goodwin also appealed for more diversity in rural architecture. “It is evident,” he said, “that most home builders are imitators.

There is danger that in considering Saul as a man of great possibilities, who | failed, that we will overlcok the record of his success. He is introduced to us when seeking the lost asses of his father. He followed the suggestion of companions to seek the advice of Sam- | uel, the seer, judge end prophet. He received such a welcome that one mar- | vels that he kept his poise. The honors given him at the feast and his confer- nce wih the nation's leaders were | Samuel’s - preliminary steps for Saul’s | election by the people to be the first | King over the Jewish people. When the seer recelved the revelation that the following day Ged would reveal to him the coming King, Samuel made the | preparations for the one God had se- lected to meet the nation’s leaders in a social way without revealing to them | the program of Jehovah. When th elders, representing the 12 tribes, in- formed Samuel cf their desire for a King, like other nations, the great | et and national leader was| crushed. Not until God made clear to him that He proposed to ‘avor the na- | tion’s request, although He considered | that they had rejected Him by their de- | cision rather than casting off the in- fluence of Samuel, who was to do His greatest work in connection with the es- tablishment of the kingdom. | The nation’s demand for a king grew | out of their failure, as a people, to be | loyal to Jehovah. It was in accordance with His program that the nation should be ruled over by a king wio would foreshadow the Kingship of the Messiah, Their premature demand frustrated God’s plan, but He overruled it for their good and His glory. The op- | pression of their enemies made clear ‘o the elders of the 12 tribes that they needed a central form of government, just as our fathers found that the con- Tederacy of the colonies was not strong enough for the development of our country, so the people established our present form of government. We do not know the exact method that Jehovah used to reveal to Samuel that Saul was the man He had selected to rule over the nation. We do know that after he was brought providentially to the prophet’s home, this gave Samuel an portunity to talk over the affairs of his country with Saul, the son of Kish, and that he made clear to his guest why had bfflulhyt!‘hh;\ providentially l;: muel. The physical appearance, pol ;‘:‘:d personal gnllneflsm of the modest farmer demonstrated beyond question to | the prophet that Saul was God's choice for the kingship. The First King Chosen.

The country church must help prevent war to prevent the wholesale domina- tion of country people in the interest of nationalistic absolutism.” Rural Health Protection Decried. Only about one-fifth of the rural and, gemi-urban population have adequatc health protection, Dr. Marvin F.

Their country was under the Philistines. They possessed no weapons of war, for when 'g:ul mrudal‘:]u :vu of independence Te were ly two swords in the nation. They had no constitution. They possessed no army or means of raising one, for their treasury was empty. When Saul's end -came, the nation was well established. Under his leader- ship they had won their freedom, es- tal their own form of govern- ment, unified the 12 tribes into a united nation which realized its oneness of blood and mission as a nation. He had veloped. a well established system of government, built up an army and laid the foundation for the nation’s great- ness under David and its glory under Solomon. It had a good working bal- ance in the nation’s treasury and was recognized by those who had sought to oppress it and crush its national aspi- rations. ‘When Saul commenced his rule, there were some who doubted the man's fit- ness. They declined to recognize him or bring him any presents. Saul dem- onstrated his strength of character by waiting in patience until the hour came | for him to strike the blow that crushed | the nation’s enemies, whose armies had | overrun the land. He appealed to the nation on bel of Jabesh—Gilead s0 effectively that he thoroughly aroused them and they crossed the Jordan and defeated the Ammonites. This triumph established Saul firmly as King of Is- rael. They crowned him at Gilgal. Throughout the opening of his career as a King Saul had the advice and sympathetic support of Samuel. During this period Saul exhibited a dependence upon God and a desire to do His will. He demonstrated his courage as a sol- dier. He inspired the nation by his investments in private and iblic health measures. “It 15 not altogether lack of financial ability that is ble for the in- sufficiency of service.

She went on up the steps me- chanically, conscious of the eyes of the bystanders on the street. “Who are they, James?” she asked in a voice that sounded remote in her own ears. “Newspaper men, Mrs. Jack.

A Mystery Story By Mary D'ahlberg 1 But as her weeping maid met her in the hall, a second thought plerced her consciousness like a lance: “I'm not married! I'm a widow!” Strange and shocking implieation; a | familiar personality gone utterly; old ways, old habits left without point or reason; her whole life to make over again. Her heart fluttered wildly. If only she might weep with Marie! Bizarre were the days that succeeded Jack’s death. Dagger moved through them in a daze, yet a daze which in no wise confused the clarity of her perceptions. She was honestly dismayed by the 'dy. Death blurred the outlines of Jack’s weaknesses, threw into hi re- the lovable qualities of his char- acter. And she was sufficlently honest to be disturbed by the let-down in nervous tension which accompanied her grief. For, sorrow as she might, she wasn't as cast down as her mother-in- law, and Mrs. Vaneering was as sensi- ble of this as she, herself. Jack's death had severed the only tie between the two women. Mrs. Vaneer- ing’s original prejudice against Dagger had never been overcome, and now it was intensified by the discovery that under the terms of her son's will his widow was to inherit his entire fortune, ircluding the millions left him by his T, Nothi Dagger could say would serve to reconcile her mother-in-law either to this fact or to her own per- sonality. And as soon as she decently could, she moved out of the Vaneering home. Kitty had invited her to Detroit, and Uncle Jim and Aunt Espy had ule.nphe! summonses to return to | Texas; but in her present mood she wanted to be by herself. She felt as though she had been spifitually bruised; her heart ached, and her mind was numbed and un- certain. People bothered her—that is, individuals. She preferred to remain in the city because of its immensity, because she could slip unidentified into the endless streams of humanity that flowed through its streets. one of the innumerable chips tossed here and there by the turgid current of life, No plans occupied her. ate and slept, read enormously, walked in unfrequented byways, drove her car Dagger put & hand up to her throat. | fetne lawyers had her address. phase lasted for several weeks. ‘llr?berrup'.ed by a cable from Dick “Just heard your loss Dearest Dagger | do ‘come Paris Emily and I will do all It was in Par ! yours always Dick.” | She read it over a second time, and | & burst of energy dispersed her lethargy.
