I For planting about the house foun- ply very rapidly, rrom a start dation it is best to use shrubs that grow from 3 to 6 feet high; using low shrubs under the windows and in front of the taller shrubs which are kept well back. Corners are best rounded out by spirea Van Houttei, a graceful shrub that is always sym­ metrical and full from the ground up. Of the shrugs host suited for foun­ dation planting the following ■-are most desired; spirea Van Houttei, slender deutzia, callicarpa, snow­ berry, Japanese barberry, coralberry, Japanese privet, Forsythia, and Spirea Thunbergri. Avoid planting shrubs too close to basement windows, as such will keep out light and PLANTING DISTANCES. Tall shrubs such as the Lilac, burnum and Forsythia should spaced 5 to 8 feet apart.

Paul is on his second mission­ ary tour. He has visited the South , Derbe, VJ .......:.......... Too often the big moment in a email childl’s life is wholly overlooked, Hot even recognized many times, by the parents. These moments are very important and really need watching for. When Bobby was taken out for the first time on a star-lit night, he won­ dered .at the glory of the heavens. •In his early-to-bed regime he had Jnever stood under a sky with twinkl­ ing stars and as he looked he-mar­ veled and suddenly tightening his grip on his mother's hand he said joyously: “Why, Mother, I fink I al­ most seed Good.” This was indeed a (big moment. Fortunately for Bobby, be had a mother who understood, she knew tliat her child had’ visualized God in his power more than he had ever done in his baby life, before. This moment needed her attention. Billy, who was a sadly wilful child and was always being checked or chided on account of some misde­ meanor, quite unaccountably did an unusually kind, self-sacrificing act. When he realized that he had been ^responsible for this voluntary good­ ness, he said in great surprise: “Why, Muvver, I isn’t all bads, is I?” This was a big moment in his life, land his mother, recognizing the tenth of his statement, began at once to take a different course in her train- ling of Billy. To-day Billy and she have found out that her small son has many more “goods'” than “bads” and they are both enjoying the quest for them. Billy has to be punished 'only rarely now because in a mo­ ment when his own self awakened to nis actions his mother awakened also. Little Betty, who sat upon the floor with a' large family of dolls sur­ rounding her, said with quiet deci­ sion: “I want to be a real mother of real children some day, Mother.” She wasn’t laughed at nor told not to be thinking such silly things yet, she was helped in her awakening mo-(________ ...........................o............ .
