Thers 1., is no contradiction between Paul. and James. The works which James commends are really "the fruits of faith" as expressed itt our lesson title. They are also * part of "the fruit of the Spirit" of which Paul speaks in Gala- tians 5:22, 23; "Love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, good- ness, faith, meekness, temper- ance." If we "walk in the Spirit" as Paul enjoins us to do we shall obey the Spirit's prompting and perform the kind of good works which are commanded not only by James but by Christ and Paul as well, We enter the Kingdom by faith in Jesus Christ, Having received the ,Spiritieive shall de- light in good works:: The royal law of Scripture is, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself," Do 'we do it? Do we show the same consideration for the penniless widow as for the aged rich uncle who has no chil- dren to whom to bequeath his fortune? Some excuse them- selves by saying, "I don't love for money, I just love where money is," Helping the needy calls for great care. I have been fooled a few times.

On the day after the funeral the beekeeper's family saw hun- dreds of the bees leave their hives and settle on the many wreaths on top of his gave, There were plenty of other floWers in the churchyard but the bees settled only on those which had been placed on their keeper's grave. The family were so impressed that they fetched the rector of the church to witness the strange sight of the bees' apparent homage. Superstitious countrymen de- clare that if the bees are not "told" of a death in, the family, members of the hive will either all die themselves or fly away. If a member of the family marries the bees should also be told, or they wily disappear, it is thought: An intriguing scientific die- ' covery has just been made about bees. Seventy-four-year-old Dr, Karl von Frisch, of the Univer- sity of Munich, reports that a sub-species of the honey-bee (apis mellifera) have a language, or dialect, of their own that can- not be understood by other sub- species, The professor says that when one of Yugoslavia'S darniolan bees does her "wagtail dance"- shaking her abdornen while walking a figure eight-it indi- cates that toed is more than 300 ft. away, When an Italian bee does the same step it Means that the pol- len is More than 250 ft, away. Twenty years ago, Von Frisch discovered that bees commune., cafe in a highly complex code by dancing on the norieycoMb. Later, he, deciphered part of their dance language, Saying that scent beeS use different dance steps to 'tell a swarm Of workers the poeition of a nectar hoard.

Camping Out Was Different Then ! As the bats fly again over the pond in permit of the raging mosquito, anti other signs are propitioee, my mind turns to the summer prospects of life afield, and I am grateful for a smell book a Mader has contributed. He found it in the back Mauna" hula, under some desuetudes, and it is called, "IleW to Game Out," The publisher is Scribner, Arm, strong ec Company of New York; the date is 1877; and the author is John M. Gould. On the title page he is describ- ed as the historian of the First- Tenth-Twenty-ninth Maine Regi- ment, but the office of the Ad- jutant General of Maine informs me that no biography of hiM is available; although his service record shows that he enlisted as a private in 1801, and in two years was a major, The regiment he chronicled was one of those with frequeht reorganization and replenishment, and it would seem he converted the march and biv- ouac of conflict to a postwar hob- by, His camping out has over- tones of Government Issue In terms of today's great in- terest in the cookout and camp- site, a perusal of Major Gould's handbook is exciting. He lists, for instance, 114 things you should take with you, one of which is a currycomb. His camping trip is done with a wagon, and he warns against pitching the tent too near a highway, as it would frighten passing horses. Currying t h e horse, he adds, should be the task of the captain's assistant, On our camping trip last sum- mer, when seven of us made the beautiful Allagash canoe voyage, we had seven captains and no private, and at this point I lost Major Gould, I also, found on his list: clothesbrush, blacking and brush, broom, paper collars, song book, and watch, I have the feeling that Major -Gould perhaps still wearing his medals, organized his camping parties so he was usually the captain, and that brushing his clothes and polishing his boots fell, again, to the captain's assistant - as did sweeping out the tent, laying out the formal attire, leading the eve- ning songfest about the campfire. On the Allagash, it ,was won- derful to see the seven captains retiring in utter exhaustion shortly after the evening feast - their wet sneakers drying in the smoke, their, clothes laid largely over a canoe (to catch the morning sun if any), the time rounded off at about sun- set, and the idea of a commun- ity sing 'fully repugnant at that time. The military perfection with which Major Gould organized his camping trip is distasteful to experienced campers. It is al- ways fun when one station- wagon load of happy excursion- ists arrives hungry act Maddy- gumpus Rock while all the food and other participants have gone, as the direction said, to Gaddy- mungus Beach. The captain's as- siStant, in such a routine situ- ation, could grab the broom and sweep. Somehow I am glad I never went camping with Major Gould, We had three ladies on our trip, too.

Alla gabut a song on his lips, .says that is is 'thoroughly praoticable for ladies to make camping trips, but they' must certainly have a wagon to ride, in, and be relieved of heavy work. It is well, he says, to ac- complish the day's march, pitch 'the tents, and then send the wagon back for the ladies. They should not be led as far as men from the comforts of home. It is well, he adds, to carry a stove i'f ladies are along. He says their gowns must not quite reach the ground and all their cloth- ing must be. loose and easy. A flannel dress is ideal, the skirt "coming to the tops of the boots and with a blouse waist. Nor Should they be expected to pass their time in a shelter tent, but must have area enough'to stand. Two blankets are insufficient for them, and if incilement weather strikes they should be 'tenderly sheltered in a deserted home, schoolhouse, sawmill' or barn. I recall our three camping ladies, 1e60 version, hunched un- der a spruce in a ,driving rain, a playing cribbage, nd how they fixed a togue for supper and said it was good to get away from the house for a while. We laid the 52 cards out in the sun the next morning. The ladies we had with us make Major Gould's ladies particularly unattractive, and J they wil tell you had more fun jumping in and out of the river for two weeks than they'd ever have riding in a wagon. As to clothing, any observant male will agree the present arrange- ments make camping more agreeable, although Our women said bathing suits and shorts were no good while frying . doughnuts on a campfire - long pants were better to ward off the spattering fat. A good part of Major Gould's advice is good - that which con- cerns diet, fire-making, sanita- tion, and similar wilderness truths that change not. The fun comes in his 1877 attitudes. His army regulations and strict man- agement a r a Understandable, but I doubt if . they• contributed, to enjoyment so much as our later practices. An3ranay, when our seven captains gO'agaiii this summer, as we shall, I'm going to .stick the both in the wagon, and some evening around the campfire I'll get it out and read parts of it aloud, I think this will cause riotous hilarity to' rend' the quiet of the wilderness, and contribute largely to the Tun. -- By Jelin Gould in the Christian. Science Monitor: Well-stocked and serviced new supermarkets, are paying thou- sands 'of American ' customer owners to learn about commu- nity cooperation while they pick up the family groc-eries. "COOP" signs mark handsome shopping centers ,where even a casual customer can see the eco- nomic principles of organizet cooperative societies• put into practice. New coop stores are found from Massachusetts to Virginia, through the Midwest and Canada to California. With a striking' 85 per cent member- ship growth' among leading coop retailers these last seven years, more of the big. customer-owned supers are oil' the way. Hard-pressed farmers a n d workerS were the first consumer cooperators in .America as in Europe, but today 's fastest growth is urban or ex-urban,. If you remember some coop as a dull little place for penny pinch- ers, 'these supers may amaze you, In Palo Alto, a California so- ciety which started with a 14- family grocery-buying club in 1935 now owns two modern supermarkets. Their new Sunny- vale branch expects a $3,500,000 yearly business. 4t Near Washington, D.C. 11 prosperous retailing complexes make up the leading nonfarm coop in the United States. Sev- eral have their own Virginia or Maryland shopping center acre- age. They house a variety of coop stores and services-even import modern Danish furniture, Outdoor sculpture graces the original Greenbelt store's new Maryland super. It has done nothing but grow since 1939, when Edward Filene, a coopera- tive enthusiast, financed its be- ginning, The oldest and largest group of American consumer coops is in the Midwest. Close-claimed Finnish settlers 'in the 1870's started , what is now a network of 28 supers and several hun- dred lesser coop stores. The four-state area they serve, around Superior, Wis., becomes less and les,s rural as population continues to explode. Sound capitalization and train- ed management last year put 33 American coops into the super supermarket class of stores Which sell well over a million dollars a year in groceries. • • • Goods. elotic and earthy stock today's el&ps, From Sweden's pale pink hip pudding to the Deep South's chitterlings, if enough people like it, coops gladly sell it. Then they return all earnings beyond .operating costs to the members, first in dividends on., owned shares of the business, second in what coops call patronage refunds. Shared earnings are only part of the coop retail story, though. Money evidences the activity shared by shopper members. For these prosperous coops eombine some features of a progressive adult public school in better buymanship with a modern ver- sion of the .old-time crossroads grocery, where local action could start from talk around the cracker barrel. Some members find in coops a place where neighbors working together can take an influential part in shap- ing their own community life. * How do yon join? Shares sold right in the stores usually cost less than a family bag of week- end groceries. Buy them from the cooperative society that manages the store, and you be- come an owner-member of both, Just being a consumer qualifies you, regardless of race, creed, politics, occupation, or other status. Some members join fa the earnings, others enjoy hav- ing a voice in coop's business of supplying their consumer needs, states a writer in the Christian Science Monitor. Well-established is the fact that being a good neighbor pays off at the coop cash register. From such beginnings, other members find themselves led to take an increasing part in local or world community affairs. Coop members publish regular newspapers, free to sheppers, about What goes on in their stores and societies. Evergreen is the six-page, twice-Monthly paper of the remarkable ?Hyde Park Coop in Chicago, Its regu- lar calendar of committee and board meetings, store, demon- strations, and members' outings runs next to 'Milder comments tegration in this triracial com- which reflect the progress of in- munity. * * * Both. Japanese and Negreles have been elected, to the society' hoard end appointed, managers ef store departments, Grocery ads appear along with notices of the neighborhood Bach society, Kenwood garden tour, and,, the $930 a coop second-hand hook sale netted CARE to buy spraying machines for villagers in the Philippines, A etery on proposed bills for truth in advertising recalls how coops pioneered ter grade label- ing, too. Evergreen is published as part of the coop advertising and edu- cation program of. Chicago's big- gest supermarket. Hyde Parkers find this way of keeping inform- ed about coop worth while. They had already outgrown two stores in five years when they moved to their beautiful shopping cen- ter location a year ago, Organization here as in other coops provides for an education- al director and a home econo- mist. Stores employ them to help all customers and keep them aware of coop principles. New supers often include attractive homey test kitchens, At Ithaca, MY., where merniberehip grew front 700 to 3,000 in 10 yeaas recently, the executive secretary has broadcast a regular morning homemaker program from her coop kitchen Meeting rooms built into new stores, like Hyde Park's lower level auditorium, are open for both coop and corn.. murnity use. * The Natick, Mass., coop plans an ouediaor playground and pic- nic area for parking shoppers alt their new Framingham Center stare. Chatty snack bars, or even tables and chairs in valuable sales floor space, invite friendli- ness in a number of coops. When members vote, it may be on what to do wirsh patronage refunds, the earning& left after dividends are paid on shares. For these, one presents one's sale" slips on a year's coop pureleasee: Some societies divide' refunds with nonmember shoppers, who often use them 'to buy their first abases. 'In' other woo stores, re- funds may help supply local housing, or an American jeep for en agricultural cooperative in India. Q. How can I' preserve the gloss on white-painted furniture and other articles? A. By washing these articles with a mild soap and some milk mixed in. CROSSWORD PUZZLE 14. Buddhist sacred language 15.
