Ana's first pub- lic service was an attempt to purify worship from idolatry. He took away the altars of the strange gods, cut down the groves and broke down the images. The tendency to idolatry is strong in human nature and frequent- ly recurs. Christ emphasized the nec- essoity of spiritual worship. Peace and Prosperity, vs. 6, 7, In the ten years at the beginning of As+a's reign when the lams had rest from war there was -opportunity to repair the devastation of past conflict and to inaugurate constructive poli- cies. In the Washington conference upon the limitation.of armaments much emphasis has been laid upon the possibility of using materials to bet- ter advantage in constructing houses, hospitals, schools and machinery in- stead of battleshiur<; and guns. The wealth consumed in the destructive- ness of war, if used constructively, would banish poverty and insure pros- perity. 3. Preparedness, vs. 8, 9. As pro- tection against surrounding tribes Asa kept a .large standing army, well trained men of valor, He worked for peace but he knew the necessity of be- ing prepared for war. Preparedness is usually associated with military de- fence but the wisdom of preparation is seen in every department of life. The athlete must be trained for the, contest. The teacher mut he prepared 'through study. Dean Brown of Yale Uiiiveraity decribes the preparation! of Ohrist for his public ministry. "He had used thirty of those thirty-threes years in quiet preparations. for the I great tasks which were to come.

Asa had -position, prosperity and preparation; but with all this he turned to; God in.l prayer for power. A` great scholar f wrote these intimate words on prayer: "Wheat things a o too much for ine, and I ani down on my luck, and ever �- thin is dark Ialone myself, ! g , go by Yse , and I bury my head in my hands. 1 i think hard that God must knew it all, . end. will see how i atterss really are, aid understand me; .and in just+ -that: ;ray alone, by understanding me, will' ielp inc.

Parents as Educators The Wind --By Alice Wingate Frary. The wind's activities hold the small child's attention, -the clouds, the fly- fng flag, winriniMs and pinwheels:, clothes sway eg on the line, the blow- ing of children's hair and the tails of the fowls, the swaying trees and grass, • while the weathervane, "Turning, pointing, ever showing How the merry wind is blowing." asks reportedly, "Where, How?" ' There are a number ef verses easily memorized which -will make the wind seem a friendny element; "The Weath- =vane" by Laura E. Richards, "I Saw You Toss the Kites on High" by Stevenson, and Christina Rossetti's „ io hath seen the wind? Neither you nor I, But when the trees bow down their • heads ' T1ie wind is passing by." As the child makes these verses his own, listens to stories such as "Jan?' (in Mother Stories by Maud Lindsay) and "Aeolus and -the Bag •of Winds," and learns what the different winds bring, lie is being as-valeen•ed to .a finer appreciation of a force that can be so 1 gentle and yet so mighty. i Was there ever a child that -did not alk, "Where does the wind come , from ?'•' It is part of the high office of parenthood to deepen the child's inherent sense of reverence before the elements, to prevent if pos's'ible its deterioration into empty wonder or morbid fear. It is well to cultivate the feeling of awe, teaching the care- less child that the piling up -of thunder cloud's and the bowing -of wind-swept -trees are to be appreciated, by this V. 8.

The wind signifies the spirit. No mother who desires a wolf-round,od devel,,pment"for her child will fail to rn'ognize his need of inner strength, }tfa ntisconeeptions that need straight- ening. While the kingdom of heaven is the inheritance of child -like hearts, children have need of guidance, and they guide us tee, when we are elear- sighted enough to respond, but our emphasis upon values which are un- seen helps to raise our children's standards. Freebel's Mother Play of the Weathervane brings to the child its tale of the wind's work and play; to the mother it brings a reminder of , the inner forces that must be strengthened, the inner light that may illumine puzzling situations, -Tiro books which are helpful in this respect are "The Notebook of an Adopted brother" by Eleanor Davids, and "The Spiritual Care of a Child" by Anna Robertson Lindsay, the latter with its vigorous reassurance of a truth all too easily initial.
