THURSDAY, NOVEMBER &t 1939. PAGE FOUR PLATTSMOUTH SEMI - WEEKLY JOURNAL Fall Festival of Weeping Water Garden Club Bountiful Dinner Followed by Even ing of Hilarity Decorations in Keeping with Season The date of the Harvest Festival of the Weeping Water Garden Club was changed, from November 24 to Monday evening of this week, when it was given in honor of four mem bers who are leaving Weeping Wat er this week Rev. and Mrs. G. S. Hunt, who left Tuesday for Hamers ville, Ohio, and Mr. and Mrs. Taylor Wilson, who are moving to Auburn this week. Mrs. Ole Olsen was in charge of all arrangements and the evening proved to be filled with good things from beginning to end. A bountiful dinner was served at 6:30, with thirty-six guests seated at the tables. Decorations were in keeping with the autumn season. Pumpkins, gourds, fruit, kaffir corn, bittersweet and pine cones vied with each other in making the Legion hall, where the festival was held, a place of beauty. Autumn leaves also decorated the walls and white tap ers were burning all evening. Whether it was the bountiful din ner and the cheerful surroundings which put the guests at their ease or the gracious committee who had the evening's entertainment in charge or a happy combination of both the guests all forgot their dignified positions in the commun ity, their age or any other usual hindrances and had a most hilarious time. As Mrs. Verne Barton and Mrs. J. Bible, School Sunday, November 12th "Putting God's Kingdom First" Matt. 6:19-34. How simple and clear are the teachings and instructions in the scriptures, for man's guidance on the way through life, for security, pros perity, happiness and joyful living. for the Christian that carefree, trust ing reliance on his Father's care. What a wonderful, happy, joyful earth this would be if men would put God's kingdom first in their life. But while men do not do that and let selfishness rule their life, they find themselves constantly in trouble, anxiety, worry and unsatisfied. We take the first verse of the lesson which warns nu n not to be letting their first ambition be to amass wealth that has ruined many men. When they thought they had ac cumulated a sufficiency, their wealth took wings and flew away, so they had to start all over. Thieves and robbers will try and get it and oft succeed. The Christian has a higher am bition; he lives to please God, serve his cause, and thereby has the favor of God; and when his labors are ended he will meet God with a good conscience, and "his works do follow him." (Rev. 14:13). Where our treasure is, there our heart will be also. The warning of Jesus goes far ther the divided life, hearty, en ergy, service get man nowhere. Man can do only one thing at one time ...i.o.civ ium . in me rase or our lesson, man must choose between two ...ooiwt ,i la f uuer spiritual or material things (mammon stands for any material substance) God and his service, or satan and his service H-l f ueri jestis says: "U can not," that is final; no argument can chan that. As man has a dual nature earthly and heavenly we find that me tower nature predominates. hence the struggle between the two natures. (See Rom. 7:14-25; also Gal. 5:16-25). This struggle is pic tured by our Lord in Matt. 12:12 -ow me Kingdom cf heaven suffer cth violence, and the violent take it by force." Jesuss warning goes still farther. In order to have man care free, he points to the birds; they trust their creator for food, and they get it. Worry kills more people than work, and is sinful. As our Father it is his business to provide for our need; if man will do his part in plowing and 'sowing with simpl laitn in uoa. ne win give tne in crease the harvest. So much for food, as for rainment clothing Jesus points to the flowers of the field. Solomon's wardrobe looks course and shabby against the beauty and exquisite coloring of the tiger lily. God is a good provider. Paul knew when he says: "But my God 6hall supply all your need, according to M. Ranney took charge of the fun after dinner and all kinds of con tests of skill and wits were intro duced, the evening grew merrier and merrier, and it was with reluctance that "good eights" and "good byes" were said. It was Indeed a fall festival and Mrs. Olsen and her two assistants, Mrs. Barton and Mrs. Ranney were the recipients of much praise over their success. VISIT OIL WELL Tuesday Joseph Knoflicek and Ralph Timm were at Falls City to spend a few hours and looking over the Nebraska oil gusher at the Boice farm, three miles west of Falls City. The local men visited the farm which is now visited by thousands daily from this part of the west. - The party brought back with them speci mens of the "black gold" and which has a very sharp gasoline smell. The local people report that the well has not caused a great deal of excitement among the residents of the immediate community altho all are hoping that the well may develop into a heavy producing well, the first of its kind in the state.

This should abolish all anxious care from any child of God; that does not exclude man's proper care for the things God gives him; he must not waste and squander Jesus gave an example (John 6:12): "Gather up the fragments that re main, that nothing be lost." Why not trust God? O ye of little faith. As there were only Jews and Gen tiles in Christ's time, and the Jews were the chosen race, they were to give the Gentiles an example of trusting God; so should the Chris tian today, in that way honor and glorify God. God's children should not emulate the Gentiles. Jesus sums up the lesson in a statement that anyone can understand, and it re quires all of man's ability, grace from God and strength to "Seek first God's kingdom and his righteous ness." But foolish man will do any thing else first, and when he has ex hausted all his resources and has made a failure of life, is bankrupt and sees no way out he commits suicide, thereby proving that the foregoing is true. In the seeking of the kingdom, we are assured of God's help: "Seek and ye shall find." Those that seek me early shall find me. It means to put forth an effort, a desire, a reach ng out, like Paul. (Phli. 3:13). As the boy returns from the far coun try, the waiting father meets him The kingdom is God's rule in the heart, and man a subject in the kingdom. As he submits to his rule, like a soldier, he does not worry about anything; it is God's business to provide. And he has promised that he will provide Having surrendered to the service of the King, he serves him just for today no one has a tomorrow it is just today. So the anxious worry of tomorrow fades away. That is the reason why God's children are such a happy, carefree people. Peter wise ly says: "Cast all your care upon Him. for he careth for you." (I Pet. 5:7). "Be. not dismayed whate'er betide, God will take care of you; Nothing you ask will be denied God will take care of you." "God knows the way, He holds the key He guides us with unerring hand; - , Sometime with tearless eyes we'll see Yes, there, up there, we'll understand." "Then trust in God through all the days Fear not, for He doth hold thy hand." Weeping Water Fred Allen was a visitor in Omaha last Monday looking after some busi ness matters. Sirs. J. J. Meiers has had her home newly painted and 'decorated on the inside, which adds much to its ap pearance. M. R.

Smileage Books Offer Much in Entertainment Weeping Water Making Great Plans for District Convention of the Legion and Auxiliary. ; The Weeping Water American Le gion post and Auxiliary unit are mak ing extensive plans for the Twelfth District convention of the two orga nizations to be held there next Wed nesday, November 15. The district is composed of Otoe, Cass, Lancaster and Seward counties, and it is esti mated there will be around 400 men and women of the two organizations present for their respective annual conventions. Smilage books to be given register ed Legion members contain coupons for entertainment, food and beverages worth far more than the registration price, a splendid example of the fine hospitality Weeping Water is pre pared to offer her guests. The two organizations will hold separate business sessions and separ ate banquets in the early evening, but will join in the convention ball to be held at the new community building in the later hours of the evening. The Legion feed will take place at the CCC camp mess hall, where a fine dinner is promised the members. Additional refreshments on the smile- age book include sandwiches, malted milk, home style, coffee, pop and beer. Entertainment includes bowl ing and a picture show. This is the greatest array of free items ever in-J eluded on a district convention smile age book, the only drawback being that the Legionnaire who cashes in on all his coupons will have little time for convention sessions. The last of' some fifteen coupons provide free admission to the banquet and to the dance. Registration fee is only $1-00, and with the many things provided it would 'seem that none attending the convention will fail to register. Auxiliary members will be regis tered free but pay for their luncheon and banquet tickets. At the conclusion of the business sessions of the two organizations in the late afternoon, all will stand re treat something new at district or state conventions, but harking back to service days, when that was one of the impressive daily events in 'the life of the service man. If the weather is fair, Weeping Water may expect a large crowd of visitors next Wednesday. They will reside on the farm of Fred Schumacher aefev miles north of Nehawka. Welfare Club Active.
