THE SIGNS OF ETERNAL LIFE VISIBLE ON ALL SIDES $ Living for By Sophie w Copyright, 1922 (New York Eventing World) by Press Pabilehi Get Out Into the Country | And Get a New Grip on Life Revive Hope in the Ultimate Wisdom of Mother Earth—They Drive Away the “Blue Devils” and Make Life Worth the City Inhabitant. Irene Loeb “It is good beyond measure for man, woman or child to get ac- quainted with Mother Earth out in the open.” “The pathetic thing is that some people must learn to love the eguntry.” “Very often the country means much more to children than food and clothing.” AST Sunday f wert to the coun- L try for the first time this sca- son. 1 walked for nearly two miles through the woods. Every- where were bud- ding things, wait- ing for the sun's rays and the spring rains to nourish them into greater life. * And again I maryelled at the Wonder of Won- ders—the Mother Earth that vives and gives anda waits for no man! And somehow or other all the winter's storms, with the snow and sleet and all the troubles and trials that every one en- dured, seomed to fade and die in the face of those hopeful signs of renewed Nfe—unfal!ing, ever present There they spread before me—acres and acres, spotted with young greens. clean, and sweet, and full of greet- Ing. And then TI thought of the very few acres of the crowded city where human beings are huddled together. I thought of the children that have never seen cows and sheep—and there are many of them. I thought of tired mothers, fearful to go to dis- tant parts because they think they are chained down to the duties that confront them. ‘i And then I realized there dreds, yes thousands of people who haven't the first conception of what the country means—what it can g to them, if they would only seek And I can't help wishing that 1 could reach out to each and every one of those who have sorrows and suf- ferings and who see nothing bright ahead of thom, because of their lit- tle, narrow enylronment wishing that I could bring them out here and show them what hope really means. And I would like to tell them what the country means to me. Wen I get “blue” and weary of the world, and things seem all huddied in a cor- ner, I go out and look at these grow- ing things right out of Mother Earth, and I cannot help realize, despite my misgivings, that that great Crea- tor, that Higher Power, does exist, regordiess of you and moe and of what we think. are hun And that though growing things were seemingly dead all win- ter, yet here they are, coming right through in new dress, new hope, new existence. And they will fulfil their destiny if nature has her wa; And somehow there always comes the solace that this being #0, the same Creator who sees to it that the dead shrub is revived and blooms again will see to it that the same re- birth will come to pass of the human being who hus lost hold and finds him- welf in the depths of despair. these And again I reason that the great trouble with the mass of our people in the seething city is the fact that they lose so much in not getting into a communion with the marvellous manifestations forever present in the country—to breathe hope, and dispel the blue devils. You would be surprised tf you tried really to get this communion, what Jt woulda do for you. You look up into the sky—it is euch a large sky and so beautiful—it is always beautiful. And somehow the bigness of the uni- verge and the possibilities for you are bound to creep in es you look around and beyond to the horizon, And then, everywhere on all sides, the tiny insects that live and move and have thelr being regardless of what you want or what you do—and the trees, the song of the brook—in- deed they speak ‘‘a various language’ and ever answer the cry of hin who would hear, It {8 good beyond measure, gentle reader, for man, woman or child to get acquainted with Mother Earth— out in the open. And the spring Is here, and this is the time to begin that aequaintanceship. There is no place Vike the large city for easy transpor- tation, from the crowded corners to the wide open spaces, And the pathetic thing is that some people must learn to love the country. Tt should begin with the children, and if every parent knew what happiness he could store dp for his children by teaching them the love of the woods and the country he would see that his children get the country even as he does his food and clothing. Very often it means much more than that. Tt does to me! r ~ The Jarr Family By Roy L. McCardell Copyright, 1922, (New York Evening World) ‘by Press Publishing Go.

But, « Master Jarr had dropped the only pin hi following the ex- plosion of hi ter's balloon, and Johnny Rangle, having none about him, stumbled on, bh eyes to the side- walk in the hope of seeing a pin there, and murmuring under his breat} “Seo n pin, pick tt up. And all the day you have good luck!" But he had no good tuck, and Master Jarr whispered to him, ‘wait until your pop throws away a lighted cigarette butt. That will do it as good as a pin.” « Before very long, Mr. Rangle dropped the remnant of a cigarette which was still burning: Johnny Rangle selzed upon it, and at the first opportunity brought the burning end against his sister's balloon, which straightway exploded ar! was no more, But his suspicious Utule. sister had felt his breath upon the back of her neck and bad turned to see what her brother was doing, just as he applied the cigarette, Little girls are quicker in thought anc action than little boys; with a ery of anger, little Mary Ran- gle grabbed her brother's blue “For A Good Girl’ balloon and by tho pres- sure of her hands and sharpness of her finger nails, it burst into nothing as her balloon had burst, Master Rangle had been caught in the act. His father promptly chas- tized him, but that did not restore his Yttle sister's balloon. Little Emma Jarr, joining in with little Mary Ran- gie’s grief, now sobbingly brought charges of malicious destruction of Property against her brother also. But, with, the serene mendacity of childhood, Willie Jarr steadfastly de- nied the indictment with an alr of in- jured innocence, while Johnny Rangle, always a real pal, corroborated him, the while he claimed that his little af ter's balloon had blown against the cigarette that he had picked up. Then his father gave him a spanic for having picked up the cigarette, and the procession moved on, But the pleasant walk was no longer pleasant to any one except Master Willie Jarr. He still had his balloon, even if the words ‘For A Good Girl” were painted on It.
