From Wednesday's Daily Bishop Seaman kept a well filled church spellbound for over an hour last night at the St. Luke's church as he described the continuous fight the missionary has to wage against the tremendous distances, wind storm:? and misunderstanding of re ligious belief in the northwestern section of the state of Texas. He told of the early struggle of . vnlio-irma friti:!am from I L : 1 1 - 1 ti 1 1 1 u I iwituuo . . -. . . . - I the tyranny of Mexico, its success- ! ful revolution and voluntary entry into the Union. The first mission iarer, vera literally "foreign" mis sionaries as they went from the 1. S. A. to what was then a "foreign" re public. The development of North Texas from a farflung unfenced cattle rationing plain to an industrial and agricultural center which is grow ing so rapidly that religious and ether organizations can hardly cope with the movement is a recent hap pening. Where open plains saw huge herds roaming a few years ago prosperous cities now stand. To these the church is ministering. He d-jfmed a missionary area as one where there is great and immed iate opportunity which must be seized at once. tty erecting a tent, and then a temporary building, usu ally tiie time tomes when the com munity is able to finance the brick or Ftone stnictuie which is a per n.anent heme for religion. The bishop described vividly the swaying of the frame churches as the "North er" sweeps down, and the primitive and precarious conditions under which the missionary works. He showed that just as a man or woman is a soul and has a body so the church is a missionary society and has an organization to work with. Previous bishops were natives of Ire land and Virginia but the present bishop is a "Texan" born. Tanned by run and wind, he pre?nts the finest type of clean, out of doors man, tilled with a zest and enthus iasm for his work which is contag ious and greatly inspired all who hoard him. Choral evening prayer, with the Gospel for the Tuesday in Holy Week, was lead before the address, which included also a description of the last week in the life of Christ on earth.

After cleaning, a machine-made pile rug sometimes loses its shape or wrinkles and curls up because the sizing on the back has worn off. Re sizing will pay for itself in adding to the durability of the rug as well as making it look much better and be done at home or by a carpet deal er. The rug should be stretched tight and true and tacked at frequent in tervals face down on a floor or some other flat surface where it can re main undisturbed. It should then be sprinkled generously with a solh- tion made by soaking and dissolving M pound of flake glue in gallon of water in a double boiler or a container surrounded by hot water. The rug should be allowed to dry for at least 24 hours. If it is light weight, care should be taken not to put on so much glue that it pene trates to the right side. Adequate Diet. The food guide which project lead- rs of womens clubs of the county are recommending. to club members and visitors this month includes the following foods: A quart of milk each day for each child up to 18 years of age, a pint for each adult. (A part of this may be cooked into the food, if that is desirable.) At least three servings of vege tables each day. One of these may be potatoes or dried beans. At least two servings of fruit (fresh or canned) each day. One raw fruit or vegetable each day. To matoes (canned or fresh) or oranges three times a week. At least one egg a day. Coffee or tea for adults (r.ct more than one cup of each, each clay.) If the above foods are incluticd in the diet each day, then the appe tite may be satisfied with breads, butter, cereals, sweets, etc. If for any reason the supply of fruits and vegetables has to be small, then em phasis should be put upon the use of the whole grain cereals and coarse flours, altho, of course, these are beneficial at all times. If the homemaker will ba sure to include the suggestions above in her menus for the day, she will be sure to give her family not only a sen sible mixture of foods but one based on sound scientific principles. In other words, she will he providing an adequate diet for them, the pro ject leaders are telling their members. i:i the u.-e of ground limestone as a possible substitute for alTalfa.
