Y Second Section Eight Pages T)aur Twenty-third Yr ytrtly r.fty-aiilb Vw A SPIRITUAL 4 By UKV. IVAN I.KR HOLT. T.T. (St. John's Methodist Kpiseopal Church, South. SI. Louis. Mo.) "One thing have ) desired of the Lord; that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the houe o the Lord all the 4t clays of my lire, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to Inquire His temple." Psalm 27:4. It is a popular fallacy of our day to think of a religious man an neurotic and to apeak of one who knows an experience of God a 4 ahnormnl. In his "Psychology and Morals" Dr. J. S. 11 art field has point- ed out that there is an "urge to completeness" in man. On the physical side this works-itself out in growth; on its psychologl 4. cal side there is sought an absence of conflict and a harmony t with the social environment and the universe nt large. 4 That harmony Is possible lhroui;h the emergence of nn cth- leal personality in which the instincts are sublimated and domi- nated by nn Ideal. It Is what our fathers at a Methodist revival termed "getting right with God." In our religious thinking modern psychology is inquiring as 4 to whether prayer is autosuggestion ami the Idea of God only a projection. That Is true if religious experience is only a 4 dt-lusion and a neurotic state, liut we must distinguish between fr fanaticism and insight. iSome conversations seem to be fanaticism nnd neurotic ex- 8 trnvagnnco, but there are others when the heavens open nnd . , Cod is visible as reality. f "In almost every asylum there is someone who is quite con- 4 vlnced that he is the Messiah; so was Jesus Christ but that Is 4 4 the end of the resemblance between iln'in." 4 There ts quality as well as Intensity in religious experience. 4 FUR SCARVES APPEAR IN PASTEL TINTS Furs, which used to be put care ully away In camphor nt the first slfi-n of sprintr, have become an al most indispensable part of our L ... . urin wvainei- KHMiniijp. i mi- ; 'erliiB is tint silky softness of h choice luiimal pelt thrown nbout . the shoulders, so much grace and eleKiince does It lend to the tout ensemble, that women refuse to nmnng children.

Good Things for Buffet Meals Almost every momentous occa sion calls for some extra food we are happy so we want to eat in iorder to make the celebration yom plete. The best d igestiun of rourse tnkes. place when we are happy so very often on these occa sions we tax it to the limit. We servo dishes which are very de licious and yet very difficult to digest. Another qualification of buffet meals is that the food be easily prepared. Foods that can be served In one dish are very popular. Chicken has long been consid ered a very desirnble foundation for this dish. It is delicious nnd well liked by most individuals. Tho chief difficulty is that It is very ex pensive. Often there .will be n party of only four. At such a time a whole chicken would be too much. A good substitute for the chicken may be had by cooking porkj ribs slowly in a closed vessel. "When this meat Is cold it may be cubed, then add to a well seasoned crenm sauce. The seasoning de Pndfi upon the individuals served. The addition of onion Juice and gyn peppers makes a remarknble cjk"ken a la king! Very nice sandwiches can he made from this very same meat. The addition of chopped plcklea and mayonnaise make them very tasty. Since the oyster season is here, we should take advantage of it. Creamed oysters in ramekins are very delightfu Buttered bread crumbs sprinkled over the top of the ramekin are very desirable ad ditions to the oysters. Sauted oysters also make a very nice buf fet dish. These different dishes are made much nicer If a good hot bread is served wlthOhem. Nothing can be nicer than cheese biscuits. These Mrcutts may he made by adding about 2-3 cup of grated American cheere to two cups of flour in your own biscuit recipe. After you have cut. the fat Into tha flour, add the grated ch4&'e, then the liquid. Roll the dough out, cut It Into smnll i AMsruit. which mnv be kent In a tool nlace until vou arc radv to bake them. M r -- --.. - . .. -- ii AMBITION 4 ' 4- 1 '" .5, : 4. : f j 1 Cereals Balance Menu All Meals t "The use of cereals should not 1 be confined to the breakfast hour alone." says a recent article In the New York Kventng Journal. "For with a little ingenuity these same cereal products provide a wide i choice of economical, wholesome main dishes, breads and desserts ; looklnK bonks, massive lamps, oil which no rar toward biilancini; palntlnits nnd larce velvet cush luncbcon or dinner meals, Includ- I ions. Men Kenerally prefer such lnc those of lowest cost. As in I a room for they are usually quiet nlanninc all balanced meals, how- ever. It is alwavs well to Include ! milk, fruit and vegetables In some! form 40 supplement the ci-roal . pi'OO nets. I Illlltl'Cn a nil aoUUS ailKB i should eat these cereal dishes I ahinul.inlly nnd enjoy them. I --as an article of food, oats are ! used very extensively, especially the housekeeper of today has the choice of either the long cooking or quick cooking variety or rolled oats, one being Just as palatable and delightful as the other." If all children are given a voice In the family counslls and a share in the family responsibilities and treated with the same courtesy und consideration ns adults they will respond by surprisingly effec tive cooperation and develop a more, worthy and Intelligent type of citizenship. Homes conducted on the autocratic, "because I told you to" lines, are just as poor soil for the growth of democratic ideals as the homes where spoiled children are the family tyrants.

Timely Suggestions For May What month can surpass the I Merry Month of May? May-time1 I Is blossom-time; a glad time of the year. The miracles of May are so many and ho impressive that they j are long remembered. Blossom-time Is seeding time, i When the apple trees are In bloom is the accepted time foriplantlng : In the open ground, seeds of bnl- snm, Coleus, Four-o'Clock, Portu- laca, Coxcomb. Salvia, and others, j Sow Salvia, or flowering sage, in ! drills, ns thinly as possible, and when the Beedlings are of a good I size they may be set out where jthey ore to bloom. As they make I large plants, allow plenty of room between the plants. Salvia plants for summer bloom, that have been raised Indoors, may ' be planted outdoors tn beds, just as I soon ns thev nrc "hardened off" nnd there is no longor danger of cold nights. If any seeds listed for April sow- 1 Ing have not yet been planted. It is ; i not too late to sow' them during I May. It Is indeed a good plan to i make plantings at different times j to assure ultimate success, I In purchasing seeds, always en : deavor to get tho best,- hut do not i brand seeds as worthless until you 1 have sown portions of the package I nt different times, and under j varying conditions. J Uemember that though fresh nnd vital, the germination of seeds 1 will depend very much upon the weather and condition of the soil. If the enrth is too dry they will be tardy In starling. If too wet the y seeds may rot or mould. When planting seeds, ascertain I nbout how long they ordinarily I should tuke to germinate, and then j give them careful attention for I thnt prlod. If the weather Is ' rv tnnlMlPn thft fr1ttfl nnd rnv. er with a muslin frame. Allow about two weeks for ! salvia seed to start, If conditions "". -unumw, uwieua. cleone, and Honesty, require about ten days: and balsam seeds start In about eight "ys from date of sowing. Have patience with the seeds of Aquilegia, Monarda, Herberts, ste phanotis, and ns: .paiagus. for these Th?' OUl " the to germinate. Thpy!n,Knl 1 hunted all oyer, b j are rather slow j usually require about one month tn start into growth. 4- Encourage the child to use his judgment. MEDFORD, OREGON.

Health The May number of tho Ore gon Pn rent-Teacher nr rived this week-end. And tho very first sentence It contains is ihts: "This month of May is devoted above oil others In nn organiza tion to the consideration of tho health of our children." How proud wo nre and right fully should be of the Health program of Medford and all southern Oregon. What days nnd weeks of preparation, publicity, and good honest toll have gone Into thnt uulquo event, "Tho Health Honor Parade." How anxious the children have been to have n part In It. Not only tho. smaller ones but through out the schools thern has been a splenditl response nnd coopcrntlon on the part of children ns well as parents. They glout over their health are proud to measure up to the standard. And this inter est speaks mighty well for those who have planned and carried out this work. A great amount of good has been done already In tho dis covery and remedy of defects that might have gone unnoticed, And time will bring about even greater results, due to the splen did cooperation all along tho line.

"Your child Is here a beautiful boy. Hut first you must pay me for him." "Pay you?" faltered the woman. "But I have very little 4 money and we shall need that for him." 4 "I have no use for money," answered the angel, "but I must 4 have a little of your Health, a great deal of your Time, some of 4 your Peace of Mind, and at least hnlf of your Heart." 4 Without hesitating, the woman handed him the things for' 4 which ho asked and the Angel turned away and returned with 4 the child.
