Ezekiel uses this expression about a hundred times, applying it to himself. It denotes his sense of human frailty and not in con- trast to the ineffable majestyof God. Stand upon thy feet. This command was given because God wishes to an- nounce to him that- by his prophetic commission he was to be elevated to a position of dignity and brought into closer relation to God and the rest of his fellow exiles.

You never thought the day • would come when you could laugh at them, did you? I've been talking with housewives recently, asking about their fiist culinary Waterloo. These women have been willing—their hus- bands eager—to tell of the trials and teATS. Several of them, believing in good measure, have told amusing in- cidents about their husbands' first, and in many eas!es last, attempts in the kitchen. Perhaps the most common error is that of cooking too much rice. As one -woman puts it: "I learned by exper- ience that on,e cupful of rice when cooked measures four cupfuls; every Ian and kettle I owned was filled the first time I cooked it. I fed it to my husband for a week, and he ate it cheerfully-. He says everything tasted good to him then." Another housekeeper related a similar experiece with barley. She started oub to, make soup, When her hus,band carne in at noon she was searching for one more dish to hold the S'wolilen grains of barley. - Doughnuts have caused trouble, too. One capable housekeeper astonished me by saying: "I remember how hap- py I was when the large, shining pan was filled with doughnuts, brown and eargery. I wished my husband would some from the woods, where he was cutting wood, that he might taste them. "My wish came true. The door opened, and in he came for a drink -cif milk and, of course, for a dough- nut. He seized one and took a bite.
