jelly making. Failures are often due
to the amount of sugar added to the
fruit juice. In general, it can be said
thatl cup of sugar to 1 cup fruit juice
for fruits not so rich in pectin. The
juice should not simmer on the back
of the stove because long heating
destroys the pectin or jellying pow

or heated the clearer and more per
fect it will be. The best rsults have
been obtained by cooking only small
quantities of jelly at one time 4 to

Calahan Cradle Soli
The Cradle Roll is often a neglect
ed and little-thought-of department
of the Sunday school. Its members
do sometimes take a rather noisy
part, and their actual constructive
contribution is usually very limited.
Put we would by no means abolish
this department from our Sunday
schools, for out of it, under the prop
er guidance, will grow the future pil
lars of the church. Fortunate i3 that
church which has a big cradle roll.
Last Sunday the members of the
Calahan Cradie Roll joyously gather
ed at the home of the Cradie Roll
superintendent, Mrs. Wm. Knaup for
a picnic dinner. Of course they
brought their parents and some of
their brothers and sisters with them
so that in all about sixty were pres
ent. We trust that as these Cradle
Roll members grow
stature," they will
"favor with God and
"in wisdom
alsf) grow
with man."

The Priscilla Sewing club has held
a number of very interesting meet

outlined for our readers in a concise
account furnished by the news report

On Wednesday afternoon. May 21,
the club met at the school house for
the fourth meeting of the year, with

to hold future meetings of the club
en the first and third Wednesdays

different stitches and seams. After

ters Satan. How long this lovely,
harmonious life of our first parents
in Eden lasted is not known, but
surely long enough that they realiz
ed fully their perfect surroundings
and enjoyed them, so that they knew
later what they had lost. It seemed
almost too good to last. So one day.
Eve beirg olrme. she heard a voice
! nearby saying: "Yea, hath God said
ye snail not eat oi every iree in mc
garden." His speaking was not sur
prising to Eve, who knew not the
tcnal qualities of the various ani
mals, not having been present when
they were named and for this reason
she was not alarmed at the voice of
Satan, the tempter, nor with his ap
pearance as lie threw her off her
guard by showing acquaintance with
the law, yet subtly conveying a taunt
"You dare not" attitude and in
citing curiosity. This parley was
her ruin. Adam had made her ac
quainted with the law and perhaps
added in order to emphasize the law,
"Do not touch it."
It is dangerous to temporize with
sin the devil. -Curiosity being
aroused, Satan gets bolder, trying to
make God a liar, implying that God
did not mean what he said, saying:
"Ye shall not surely die, for God
doth know that in the day you eat
thereof, then your eyes shall be
opened and ye shall be as God, know
ing good and evil."
There is committed the three-fold
sin: The lust of the flesh, the lust
of the eye; the pride of life. (I John
2:1C.)
And when the woman saw that
the tree was good for food (lust of
the flesh and that it was pleasant
to the rye (lust of the eye) and a tree
to be desired to make one wise (pride
of life), she took of the fruit there
of and did eat. O. that fatal step!
Where was Adam? Oh, that he had
been there sooner. He might have
prevented this.
Lut the devil had chosen the prop
er time, when Adam could not in
terfere. The tragedy has happened;
the cord that tied man to God is
severed: communion with God inter-
runted. The die is cast. Eve did not
stand the test.
Finally Adam appears. Eve in her
excitement handed Adam of the for
bidden fruit and he did eat out of
afeetion for her, being importuned
ny her: not perceiving that she was
iaiured. And the eyes of both of
them were opened and they knew
that they were naked; and they
sewed fig leaves together and made
themselves aprons. The clothes we
wear are a badge of shame, remind
ins: us of our sins. To be proud of
them is as great felly as for a beg
gar to be proud of his rags.
Let us ponder:
1 The elements of all sin are
here Sensuality, Covetousness, Am
bition.
2 Sin originates in unbelief.
3 It wears a specious appearance
of coodness.
The result of sin: (a) It trans
