The dyeing is done, • of course, before the material is cut into strips. Men's socks can be used for variety as they are usually woven in several colors and snake the design more interest ing. Materials for Background Cut the material into one-quarter inch strips, being careful to follow the line of the knit up and down so that the strips will not ravel too easily. The weight of the silk may vary, but this does not matter as long as the worker does not use the too fragile chiffon stockings. These are not practical or lasting. The plain, monotone stockings can be used for backgrounds when such are desired, The material into which these cut strips are worked is either fine white cross-stitch canvas, monks cloth, or any heavy material not too fine in weave. When the cross-stitch canvas is used, a neutral background, dark or light, must be worked in on the whole surface around the design. When using monks cloth, only the design needs to be worked and the cloth itself forms a background. Purses can be made on remnants of wool dresses to match the costume. The design to be worked on the foundation material can be either geometrical or floral. A design of simple floweis well placed and well shaded with darker centers and lighter colorful petals usually is most effective. These designs can be traced or copied from photographs and drawings of flowers in seed catalogues ant advertisements, or drawn freehand by an original worker. Also ideas may be gained from art books in the public library or transfer patterns may be pur- chased. Butterflies copied from magazines that produce the real color are effective. For the cross-stitch canvas, the design should be drawn on paper or pasteboard and may be colored. This is placed under the canvas and traced through to the right side. Water -color pencils or water -color paint can be used. Crayon lines will not last long enough to follow in working. In using monks cloth, the design has to be traced on free-hand, but with a little practice, the worker will become skilful in simple de- signs, Do not make extra lines as thou anal .., _.� ,,,,.._ ,, G2 y�n" oar otilitT'�;" "to `eatccr them. With the design drawn on the foundation material, the colors chosen beforehand for the various parts • of the pattern, and the material cut . in strips only as it is ready to be used, the work itself niay be started. The method is very similar to that of old-fashioned hooked rugs. Use a No. 12 crochet hook for the fine work and a No. 8 for work on monks cloth. Hold the strips of silk on the under side of the material and with the crochet hook, pull the strips through into small loops on the right side, following the drawn design careful- ly. Remember to shade the leaves and flowers, using a wide range of colors. Th effect is like a minature hooked rug, with small, even loops close to- gether. It is not necessary to use a frame, but if the worker finds it easier, she may tack the cloth on e small picture frame. Another more novel method of making these bags is to color anct shade in the floral design on the material with water- color pencils or water color and work in a monotone background around the flowers. The background can al- so be crocheted by using a chain stitch through the material. This works up very fast. The purses may be finished with regular tops of wood or composition or with a handle of the same ma- terial as the bag. They are lined with satin and look neater when they are finished off around the edges with a small cord, crocheted out of knitting silk is desired. The cost of making these bags, including the cloth handle, will probably not 13 ;l'f ' exceed 25 cents. These colorful bags ART OF CONTRIVING There are thousands of women managing to look well-dressed, to keep their houses attractive, and even to dispense open-handed hospi- tality, and are doing these - things under circumstances that many others would consider hopeless. We have in mind several instances. One woman had no money to buy cur- tains for her hall door, nothing to Spend on wallpaper. So, with a few drops of green paint left in the bottom of a can and a little turpen- tine to thin. it, she painted the glass in scroll fashion and the effect is of rather effective frosting. She stripped the old paper from the walls and tinting a pail of white was4.with a package of blue dye, she brushed the mixture over them and to all intents anti purposes they are delicately 'murescb-ed. In another instance a woman having given .away a good pair of curtains in or- der to freshen a sordid home, made a ragged pair do by starching them slightly and placing bits of still more ragged material oval;, the lar- ger holes and pressing them on with a hot iron. In a third instance a wo- man long accustomed to moneyed circles, and whose income has dwindl- ed to next to nothing, manages to keep a servant and contianuher hospitality to all and sundry, by dint of dying a diminished wardrobe at home, and having enlisted the in- terest of her maid by kindness and consideration. is equally able to be thrifty in all household ways, EATING UP THE SCRIPS The last of a roast always seems to taste better than ,the first slice. Perhaps it's because those tasty bits of brown outside slices that fall off in slicing, and those juicy bites one had to dig out from around the bones, are actually the choicest part of the meat. It seems unkind to slight these juicy bits by treat- ing then as scraps. In reality these so-called "leftovers" make the foundation for many a delicious dish. Cut all the meat from the bones just as soon as the roast is taken from the dinner table. Don't let the meat dry out. Place the cut meat in a, bowl and cover it closely with a lid or waxed paper.

Attractive and colorful purses, chair sets, footstool covers, small pillow tops or hot -plate mats can be made from such remnants. Pink and white- underwear, and light colored stockings can easily be ,dyed using any good dye. In choos- ing the colors, have plenty of green and be sure that the colors harmon- ize. The colors produce a more strik- ing effect when the dyeing is uneven as this shades the design and gives it depth. To • acquire this effect, allow a third of the material to re main in the dye several minutes be - for dropping the rest of the length by degrees into .the kettle.

SPEAKING OF BOOKS "What are you reading then days?" he asked. "Oh, I've just read the funnies hook," replied the modern flapper, "Honestly, it's a scream�it reall}f, impressed ane frightfully." "Who's it -by?" "You know that awfully funny person who writes things—I can never think of his naive." "What's it called?" "Let's see—it's some awfully fun- ny title. .. . . Funny, I can't for the life of me think of it at this minute;' but it's terribly amusing. It simply' gave vie hysterics." "What is it about?" "Well, it's really terribly amusi. —you know, one of those sort of satire things." "Really, it must be delightful." "I think his books are wo.nrl.irful; anyway, don't you?" "Whose books?"

TIME— Thursday, April 6, AD., 30 PLACE—In the Upper Room where the Last Supper was held in the city of Jerusalem, "Now before the feast of the Pass- over," The greatest of Jewish festi- vals, commemorating the deliver- ance of Israel from Egypt. "Jesus knowing that his hour was come." (Luke 22 : 14) Not a particular per.. iod of sixty seconds' duration, but Indicating the entire time during which his death occurred, and which was "his hour," because for that tremendous event he had come into the world. "That he should depart." Iu the Greek verb; there is nothing suggesting death, but 'only a pass- ing from one plade to another. "Out of this world." The origin of the Passover an exodus from the land of Egypt, is here most remarkably ful- filled in the departure of Christ out of "this world,' which Egypt always typifies, "Unto the Father." To •gq' to the Father is to go home, "Hav- ing loved his own." They were by his own choosing (15.16) and were soon to be bis in even a doeper way by his purchase of them with his own blood (Acts 20:23) "That were in the world." The world out of which he was about to depart., and in which they must remain 07;14-16). "He loved them unto the end, Bet- ter, "unto the utter riebsf ' And during suppe1ll 'This was a thous hast no part with ane." The Matter of Peter's salvatioel• is not involved here, but his fellowship w'ith the Saviour, "Simon Peter saith unto shim, Lord not only my feet, but also My hands and my head." The absolute word of the Meeter breaks down the oppos- ition of the disciple, but still it does not fully break down his salf_will, "Jesus saith to him, He that Is bathed, needeth not save to wash lois feet." This entire passage can- not be fully understood unless the distinctive meanings of the two Greek verbs for washing and lyath- ing are recognized. The Greek verb loco here translated "bathed" (the only use of the verb in the Gospels) implies always, not the washing of a Part of the body, but the whole. "But is clean every whit," He also made a similar pronouncement later in the same evening (John 15:3). "And ye are clean, but not all." Ju- das was then in the room. "For he knew hien that should be_ tray him," Literally him that was betraying him. "So when he had washed their feet," In what mood do you believe the disciples now were? "And taken his garments and sat down again." One at once thinks of that greater work which he was soon to finish, after which he sat down on the right hand of the Majesty ,on high (Heb. 1 to 3), "He said unto them, Know Ye what I have done to you?" Of course they knew the external act, but did they know, he asked, what that act really meant? "Ye call me, Teacher and Lord." As Teacher he was the ultimate au- tority in their thought; as Lord, their Master in every purpose and act of life. "And ye say well; for so I am." Such an acknowledgement would be sinful unless Christ were more than man. "If I then, the Lord and the Tea- cher, have washed your feet." The heights of his deity and the depths of his voluntary humiliation couldn't be more vividly placed in contrast. "Ye also ought to wash one an- other's feet." Christ is here come mending to the disciples an attitude a willingness of heart that does not hesitate in stooping low in serving other people, the virtue of humility. "For I have given you an ex- ample." Christ is twice spoken of as an example in the New Testament, here and in 1 Peter 2:21, though the Greek nouns in the two passages are different. "That ye also should do as I have done to you." If we first learn from our Lord to associate with others in the blessed spirit of a ser- vant, what a blessing we should be- come to the world,"—Andrew Mur_ ray. "Verily, verily, I say unto you," Twenty times in the Gospel of John and not once in the other three Gos- pels, does Christ begin a statement with his solemn phrase, Verily, ver- ily.

We also are sent •nes, his apostles; (John 17:18; 20:21), "If 3'e know these things." Know_ ledge carries responsibilities as well as privileges. "Blessed are ye if ye do them." Christ especially empha- sized the doing of the things he taught at the conclusion of the great sermon on the Mount (Matt. 7:21, 24-23- "Likewise ye younger be subject unto the eder." This may mean that the younger Christians should be in obedience to those advanced in age "Yea, all of you gird yourselves," The white scarf . or apron of slaves which was fastened to the girdle of the vest and distinguished slaves from freemen, was known by a technical word deriving from the verb bore used. The verb itself sim- ply means to tie or fasten about one's self, and occurs nowhere else in the New Testament. "With hum- ility to serve one another." True humility toward our fellow -men ar_ ises from humility before God, wherein we attribute no good thing to ourselves, recognize that all that we have, even our natural gifts, are of God, and that we are the objects of his undeserved love. "For God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble," A quotation from the LXX version of Prov. 3:34; also quoted in James 4.9, Goa withholds his gifts and aid from the proud, since the necessary condition on the part of the creat- ure for the reception of every com- munication on the part of God is wanting to them. its hands might be free for„lyt?,lt he cuss ,e.udui `tu -eC;• ._ , . - "Then he poureth water into the basin." That it is called the basin would Indicate it was the one placed in the upper room for such occas- ions as might arise. "And began to wash the disciples' feet." It was cus- tomary among the oriental people for a servant to wash the feet of guests as they came into the house, their feet, with only sandals on them leaving accumulated much dust from the road. "And to wipe them with the towel • wherewith he was girded." Shame and astonish- ment shut the mouths of the dis- ciples, and not a sound- broke the stillness of the ronin, "So- he cometh to Simon Peter." With what disciple he began we do not know. "He saith unto him." Apparently the first one in the room to speak. "Lord, dost thou wash my feet?" By this question of astonishment, pos- sibly accompanied by drawing his feet upunder him Peter pays a great tributo to his Master. "Jesus answered and said unto him What I do," In this be has made himself ultimately responsible for all that happens for all of us. "But thou shalt understand hereat_ ter," Hereafter means after these things," and refers to the entire Passion of Christ, which is here be- ginning. "Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash -my feet," Here is a de- liberate setting ,of th will of Peter against the will of Christ. "Jesus answered him;: If I wash thee not, Science Approves Toasting Bread Shortens Time For Diger' tion and Does Not Harr Protein Content The scientists have recently had toast up fox trial in the laboratories, And they found out some intereatingl , items.

The Marrying Age The vital statistics compiled in Ontario since 1881 seem to show that the province has a marriage problem in which the economic sit- uation is in strong conflict with na- tural law. Those who have had experience in circles where disrupted marriages are dealt with are of the opinion that people should not marry- after the age where they have become too set in their opinions. The financial situation of the av erage man is such that he cannot undertake the responsibilities of es- tablishing a household until he is 30 years of ageor thereabouts, while to have the best opportunity to melte. a - •te-rnarriage partnership a sur a "s, tiles oath '? t `„„'. : age- anet are i'rolri .'to 23 ears of age.

His adventure was foolha.rdly but had one redeeming feature which public gratitude and praise. Knowing that it was foolhardy. he attempted it single handed, prepared to take the consequences whatever they might be. He carried no radio with which to notify the world when he upset and to bring a thousand other persons to get hint out of his mess and save his life at the risk of their own. A monument should be erected for him, thus inscribed, "In grateful memory of the world's last man who was willing to pay the full price 01 his own folly," ----Detroit News, ovtrlers The Sadducees didn't believe iii spirits, but the Pharisees were pub• licans and sold them.
