He that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst." " John 6:35. A Boys' View of the Master Say, do you know I have the best- est mother that ever was, and say, how she can cook; she can make thei best barley cakes that any one ever! sunk their teeth into: and the way she cures and smokes fish would make ' one's mouth water. That ain't all, either, for always when I am going away for the day, she gives me lots to take along to eat. I was a boy when the Savior of man kind first began to preach and when he was along by the sea of Gallilee, which is where we live. Most people went to see him perform miracles and to hear him preach. When the crowd went. I went along, and as the peo ple from all over the country were going to Jerusalem to attend the feast of the paswiver, they stopped and listened to this wonderful man talk and to see the things which he did. He had been on the other side of the sea. and had come over with his band of disciples to our side, and went up on the mountain near the sea, where he was teaching the peo ple. Everybody was interested for they knew that he had turned the water into wine at the wedding at Cana, and had cured the centurion's son when everybody thought he would die, and sure we wanted to hear about him. My mother, who was one of the best of women, had taught me about the Scriptures and that the Savior should be born in T5e.hlehem, and we knew that this was the very Christ whose coming: the prophets of old had foretold. Along towards evening after the people had been there all day listen ing to the Master, they were ready to fro on to Jerusalem or leave for their homes, but they were hungry, and Jesus said unto one of his dis ciples Phillip (now I know Phillip, for he lives not far from us in Caper rurc) and Jesus asked him. "Where will wo get something for these peo ple to eat?" Phillip replied, "Even if we give them a little, it will cost a lot of money. What shall we do?" Jesus then said unto him. "You feed them." This seemed to puzzle Phillip great ly, but just then Andrew stepped up and said, "I know a boy in the crowd who has five barley cakes and two small smoked fish, but what will they do towards feeding so many people?" There were nearly five thousand men and many boys, as well as some wom en and girls in the crowd and it seemed utterly impossible to secure enough food for this large gathering on such short notice, even if there had been money to pay for it. When I heard them talking, I wanted to help as much as I could, and so offer ed the cakes and fish, and Jesus took them and prayed to his Father in heaven. He then blessed the bread, and broke the cakes into pieces which he gave to his disciples. I tell you my eyes bulged out when after the cakes had been broken inlo many pieces, each was as big as the whole had been before, and the fish that were broken also grew in size with each handling. The disciples broke them again and again and still the pieces were as large as the whole cakes. They pass ed them to the people who had taken seats on the grass, sometimes fifty in a crowd and sometimes a hundred or more congregated together, and as they took and broke the pieces again they kept on growing in size and each one ate all they could hold, and after no one could eat any more, they just had to stop. Jesus said to the disciples, "Pick up what they have not eaten," and what do you think, when they had clone it, there were twelve baskets full of broken loaves and fishes. Now you can just bet I would not have believed this if I had not seen it with my own eyes. When the ground had been cleared. Jesus said to his disciples, and espec ially John, the son of Zebidee, "Send the people away, for some of them have a long ways to go." Then he went farther up into the mountain, where he went to pray. When the people began to leave, I also started for home and as I was going I saw the disciples get into their boat to go across the sea. I made haste to get home for it looked like it would rain, and the storms come up wonderfully quick. They seem to grow on the tops of the mountains and then just jump down on the lake and how the wind does lash the water and make the biggest waves, sometimes as big and high as a house. It is awful to be on the lake when such a storm comes, for many people get drowned and we were afraid the disciples would not 1 get over the lake before the storm. t for it was seven miles and they could not row very fast. It grew dark awfully quick and then we could not see the boats any more. I I heard the next day the disciples came nearly getting drowned, and they could not make any headway against the storm and if they had let their boats go with the winds, they would have been washed on the rocks on the other side of the lake and killed. That was what we were afraid of. When the storm got the worst, Jesus came down from the moun tain and walked right out on the waters to where the boat was and when the people in the boat saw him, they thought he was a spirit and were afraid, but he called to them and said, "It la I; don't be afraid.". This seemed to quiet them and Peter, who was a sturdy old fisherman, hol lered to Jesus and said, "If it. is you, tell me to come to you on the water" t By M. a Brtggw .Tf..t.t.itiiTT- f--tt'-t"T-T?"T-T- 4-1 ; I Seed White Seed Corn and Yellow Seed Corn 1924 crop hand picked by experienced men, tipped, shelled and graded.

We have White and Clover Seed at dward Bartiing Urn Nebraska City, Nebraska Now Peter was a funny man. for while he believed that Jesus was the very Christ, he wanted to try him out, and so Jesus, said to Peter "Come on." Then Peter hopped out of that boat and was going to Jesus. He walked along pretty good but the waves were rough and strong and a great big wave nearly as high as a house came along and Jesus was walking some distance away, and it rose up between him and Peter. When Peter could not see Jesus, he became afraid, and he hollored again to the Master, "Save mo, or I will drownd." Just then the bis wave washed on and Jesus reached out his hand and took hold of Peter and said, "I will." The water seemed to hold Peter up again and soon they were alongside the boat. They got in and instant ly the storm stopped. They were al so immediately transferred to their destination on the other side and re leived of further rowing. Now you know that no one could have done these things but Jesus.- What wonderful tilings happened that day. Out of the five loaves and the two little fish which I had taken for lunch and forgotten to eat be cause I was listening to Jesus, he made enough to feed all the people and then that night he walked on the water in the storm. I would not have believed it, but it was so, and he done more than that. I know he was the Son of God and the Christ which he claimed to be. He said he was the Son of God and 1 know he was for if he had not been he could not have done the things which he did. The people believed on him because they saw the things which he done. Then Jesus told the people that he was the bread of life, w h i h had come down from heaven, and some believed and some did not believe and bit and went away and did not come to hear him any more. When they went away, Jesus said to Peter. "What are you going to do. go with the others?" and Peter said, "Where shall we go. for we know that you have the words of eternal life, and what you have told us will save us when we die, and we believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." Then Jesus said to Peter, "I chose twelve of you men, and one is a devil." He meant Judas Iscariot, for later he sold the Mas ter for a few pieces of silver. Now, Judas loved money more than any thing and he was not a good man. nd after he had sold Jesus, he went out and fell down and burst his stomach and died. RELIGIOUS WILL LEFT BY CARDINAL MERCIER Malines, Belgium. Much interest was aroused today by the revelation that Cardinal Mercier had left a re ligious will, addressed to the Arch bishop of Canterbury. The details of this document have not yet been made public, but, as it was written shortly after the visit to the dying cardinal by Lord Halifax, president of the Anglican church union, it is believed that it has reference to the question of a union of the Roman and Anglican churches, for which the cardinal long had been work ing. The will was written in the cardinal's own hand. Change of Business! The business has changed at the Lum ber Yard. Come in and settle your ac counts. We must close the old set of books.

Company SURGEON TAKES A CHANCE Cleveland. O , Jan. 26--Apparently dead for several minutes, Karl Y. Hmicrman, Cleveland manufacturer, is on the road to health today because a surgeon took a chance and had the kill to carry his bold decision t hru. HauF' rnian's heart failed uhi'.e he was being operated on for appendici tis. Suspending the operation. Dr. Tlir-ron M. Jackson made a huge in cision under the heart, into which he reached nd massnged thru organ. Sliwly heart action was restored and the surgeon finished the appendicitis pent ion. Hausernian. h ad of the E. V. II;juserinan company. Cleveland's largest null workers, said altho it occurred several weeks ago he did not know of the affair until he was i'cady to be removed from the hos pital to his home. His curiosity was aroused over numerous constiltat inn. Dr. Jackson said it was one of those rare cases where the heart and n rv 011s system fails under the shock of an operation. "The breathing stops completely," the surgeon said. "With that goes tie heart action, possibly not entire ly, but all except an imperceptible thread. Some- scientists say that if you'll just stand by and wait the case will light itself, but I haven't any faith in that, so when Hauser nian failed I acted." WAR DECLARED A CURSE Washington. Jan. 2fi. Resolutions declaring war a curse and pledging themselves to work for peace, but pqcerting that adequate preparedness was necessary "in a real, not a dream world," have been adopted here by a group of seventy national guard cfiicers reserve corps and regular army chaplains. "We live in a world of facts, not of phantasies," the reso lution said. "The wise man fits him self to live in the world that is. not in the world as he would lfke it to be. "Will any one declare that Amer ica will never more become involved in war? The resort to arms still re mains the final arbitrament of in ternation disputes, however much wo may deplore the fact or wish it other wise. "We are not militarists. At the fame time we doubt the wisdom of pacifist agitation anil refuse' to Join the peace at any price propagandists. No nation or people can long endur in the terrible antagonisms of our restless world unlets its stalwart man hood be willing and prepared to de fend it.
