TW lell-tieoers. There's a little brown church at Nashua, Iowa, made
famous by the hymn, "Little Brown Church in the Vale," which annually
attracts about 40,000 visitors and each year is the scene of more than a
thousand weddings.
After each ceremony the minister walks down the aisle with the
couple and, near the en
trance, asks the bride if she
will ring the bell to an
nounce that another wed
ding has taken place.
He hands her the bell rope
and she pulls and pulls, but
without success. The min-
ister then turns to the groom
and says, "Lend a helping
hand." He does, and soon
the bell tolls out the news.
Then the minister says,
"Always keep in mind,
throughout your married
life, if you pull together, the
bell will ring." Mrs. Bertha

Progressive Education. Recently the northern lights showed up in the sky.
Next day I asked my class of first graders how many had seen them.
Several raised their hands, but one small boy piped up, "What channel?"

Bargain Baby Sitter. Mothers whose budgets can rarely afford a mature
and responsible baby sitter might find this method helpful. We used it
when our children and resources were smaller.
We placed an ad in the newspaper: "Wmted, female. High-type baby
sitter desired in exchange for use of automatic washer and electric sewing
machine."
Result: a lovely widow who was happy to spend an evening in our
home, sewing and watching the children while her laundry was auto
matically washing. And we knew our children had expert care. Mrs.

Lessea from Tablecloth. I called one day on a rather hard-put family
just before their mealtime and, as I observed the oldest girl setting the
table, I commented, "It must be someone's birthday. That's a lovely
tablecloth."
"Oh, no," said the 9-year-old, "We always
use a white one."
Knowing her mother had no washing ma
chine, I said,, "It must be hard to keep clean.
Don't you and your little brothers and sisters
spill things?"
"Knimptimps " she answered eravelv. "but " L'

When I left, I wondered whether, in this
automatic age of ours where everything is
"plastic-coated" and "dirt-resistant," some of
our children aren't being cheated of a chance
to learn some old-fashioned manners. DP.,

The Welceete Geest. A friend of ours, whenever she comes to town, will
never stay with us moi- than three days. One day I asked her why.
"It's a rule my father taught me," she said. "The first day, he'd say, you
are a welcome visitor; the second day, a guest; but the third day, a pest."
Now I try to limit my own visits to half the invited length. It's more
refreshing on both the hostess and myself. M. B., Paris, Tex.
