From this it fol lows that business men and cul tured scholars have found that Christian Science enhances their endurance and ' mental powers, enlarges their percep tion of character,' gives them acuteness and comprehensive ness and an ability to exceed their ordinary capacity." Also emphasizing the divine source of wisdom is the Golden Text from the King James Ver sion of the Bible jProverbs 2:6): "The Lord giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding."

Hardly. l Joseph, in Old Testament his tory, believed that God had a plan and purpose, both lor indi viduals and nations. But this did not mean that he subscribed to the belief that this meant that man. himself, had nothing to do. This did not mean it followed that he believed men and nations had no part or responsibility in God's plan. Joseph worked with God, and with God's laws and forces in na ture, and so must we. The world needs more planning, as well as greater production. Even when men lived close to the soil, as in Joseph's day, the danger of lean years made planning necessary. When no man such as Joseph was at hand to store the Lord's boun ty, great numbers often starved. If that were true then, how much more is planning necessary today, when millions live away from the soil, utterly dependent on the farmers and growers and distributors of food. ! We have not solved all the problems, by far, in the effective handling of the world's food, as today's headlines testify. ! Nevertheless, achieve ments that would at one time have been . considered miraculous are today a matter of routine. We owe a debt of gratitude to' all who work and plan that we may eat and live. But we need Josephs, and greater Josephs. And we shall have them when modern plan ners realize that consecration to God's purposes makes men great.

We had many entries and soon will be able to announce the winners. We had entries from Omaha and the far west. Watch for the an nouncement of the results of the contest. Women Drivers ..Mrs. Henry Hild won the women's division of the driving contest at Stites Farm Equip ment. Her Prize was an electric fry pan. Henry made several trips but couldn't better his wife's mark. After all she owes it all to him he taught her to drive to begin with. Honest Man The Rev. G. E. Seybold of St. Paul's Evangelical and Re formed church, recieved a let ter last week from a man he had nearly forgotten. Many years ago he loaned a book to a German preacher who was struggling to learn English. The letter explained that for years he had intended to return the book, but that in the course of time and moving, the book had become quite dilapidated. He enclosed a check for one dollar to pay for the book, the original cost of which was about 60 cents. The Reverend is a well known magician and following his serv ice for the guests at the Ne braska Masonic Home, he fre quently illustrates portions of his sermon by magic tricks. His visits are eagerly anticipated by the residents, who appreciate a man who will spend a little of his time to bring happiness into the lives of others. Scenes About Town Charles Allen, former man ager of the Piattsmouth Cham ber of Commerce, was in town last week and this morning Charles Dean, also, a former manager, was a visitor on Main Street.
