Jokes
Embarassing Moments
I don’t like to ««ty anything that
might embarasa the summer board
er*,’ said an old farmer to his new
hired man. “If I frown at you when
we are at the table, that means
for you to stop eating.”
“All right,” replied the hired
man. “I don't like to say much my
self. If I frown back at you that
means I ain’t going to stop.’
A Ripe Stamp
Once a boy named John went to
tho post office and asked the man
for a red stamp
The man said, “Why don’t you
want two one cent green stamps?’
The boy said, “Because I want
a ripe stamp. ”
Keen Eye
Betty was watahing her mother
malco a cake, and seeing her
take a long needle and place it in
the center of the cake, she was ra
ther puzzled.
“Why do you do that?” asked
Betty. “To see whether the cake is
donot,” said the mother.
“But Mother,” the child answer
ed, “you can’t possibly see through
that little hole."
MARCH BREAKS RECORD

All previous records for *
single month's insurance pro

the general offices of the asso

The occasion was a “Presi
dent’s Month” campaign hon
oring De Emmett Bradshaw,
president of the association. A
total of $29,117,712 of insur
ance was written during the
month. This was an increase of
more than four and a half mil
lion dollars over the total for a
similar campaign conducted in
March 1936, which produced
$24,500,000.
Over 2,300 local camps of the
ssociation in forty-four states
and the District of of Columbia
participated in the campaign,
and over half this number qual
ified for special awards by re
cording $5,000 or more in new
insurance written during the
month.
The closing day of the cam
paign, March 31, produced the
argest day’s insurance business
ever recorded, $9,997,402.

AN ECHO FROM MY DEN
(Continued from Page 6)
act brotherly. If we profess in
1 terracial goodwill we must live
'it.
I How may we make progress
toward these ideals?
Every church member by
word and deed, should stand
agaist, lynching and mote. He
i should help ,t,o secure local and
national laws and enforcement
of them by fearless officials to
the end tha* every human be
ing sludl be inviolate in his per
son and his property.
Every church member can do
his part to remove the unfair
ness which color prejudice en
tails in securing employment,
in opportunities for training
and in the rights of tenure and
advancement.
In color discriminations now
o evident churchmen have a
clarion call to work for justice
nd fair play.
Every church has an obliga
ion .to express within its own
membership and friendly treat
nent of persons of minority ra
iftl groups. All members of
he bodv are one in Christ.

The Guidite World
of Music
By Miss Ethel Jones
With the season of music festi
vals, concerts and recital" at hand,
anisic minded youngsters and grown
ups find thersHelves spending a few'
more hours in practice so as to me*
sure up successfully to require
ment
There is a thrill to acomplish
ments in music tluit none recognizes
but he who has struggled with a
difficult passagt in a ^imposition
and suddenly finds that it can be
played with ease.
A young lady once practiced up
on Liszt’s I<* Campa;ella for over
six months and then finally she was
one day able to play it at the re
quired speed without a single false
note in those difficult skips. It was
a joy to note the radiance which
seemed to fill her in this moment
of triumph over se]f a»d over the
omiposisition. "Labors accomplished
are pleasant.’*
In tf»p same spirit a tot of iun
and profit of music study i» ex
pressed in the words of the young
student who banters "Just watch
me beat this game”
