The Word of God is not wholly confined to the pages of a book it is dailyipoken through the Wcrld of Nature in which we dwell. "Day un to day uttereth speech and niht un to night phoweth relationship with God. Man, like the earth, receive-,? life fronv a Sun, out of which he was formed and by which he is kept in being. His Sun is the God-inan, Jesus Christ 'When he turns away from that Sun there is desolate win ter; when he turns toward It there is warmth and life. the sun. tlie earth, quickens in everv one who turns to Him a season of growth and fragrance; no one can even slightly incline toward Him witJtout a sense of quickened life; thoughts, like tender plants, spring up; and love like fragrant bloom, comes, quickly into being. It is then the springtime of the soul. Every spring of nature is a symbol cf this inner season, every day a page from this Word of God, every season a chapter, every year a book. Read from this Book and "you will grow wise unto God and yourself.- Win- R.

Everyone has had a mother- Let us not forcret to remember and honor her tomorrow. When Miss An na Jarves of Philadelphia years ago made the suggestion that a special day in May be set apart to com memorate the love and the love and influence of .mother it was received with general approval, but the day will klo the individuals no good un less they observe it.

Johnson Smith, warden ot the prison, predicted that the prei ent crew will make more than 2,000 000 bricks during, the 1923 season. which operates street cars in both ctes ami suburbs, has had its engi neers build a trolley car that is free from most of the noxious noiso at tendant upon present day traction operation. Work on tno construction oi ,vnc new car began ' when tne moior. weighing about 900 pcumis, was put on the market by large electrical equipment concerns to replace the old motor weighing 2,-iuu pouna.-. The journal box, which on tho old cars protrudes out from the wheel, will bo replaced by a new spiral roll er bearing placed inside and adjoin ing tho wheel. The new cars also have a rubber cushion over the spiral roller which supports the weight of the truck, the car and the passenger load, and they are a great factor as a noise elim inator. These cushions will carry a load of 48,000 pounds. The trucks are also equipped with what is known as a swinging spring plank which enables the use of a combination of springs that take up the overload anil are easily adjust able at all times. Com nn red to tho weight of 40,000 pounds for the old car, the new trol leys weigh 25,000 pounds; have the same carrying capacity, and will I nt.md the wear nnd tear as well as Week End I Specials- r ' .

This run was made overtbc bed of a drj- lake :i.-ar Muroc, a small station on the Rlojave Desert in Kern County, California. The run v;m official in every respect, beins timed by A. A. A. officials uiin tlie electrical timing device used at the Lo Angeles Speedway over a surveyed course. Fred Wagner, the famous starter, served a3 official starter for the run. Over a million Buick motor3 are behind tJiio Enick'i performance.. A steady development of the Btiick's Valve-in-IIcad type of motor makes it possible to attain this remarkable speed without any radical changes in motor design. Buick does not intend to again enter the racing game. Buick has always said, and says now louder than ever that their smooth and quiet Valve-in-Head motor repre sents the highest type of development for speed, power nnd economy ; and this performance was just another l:le demonstration to call attention to the facts that i he 1923 Buick is the greatest Buick eves built, and i hnt.
