real workers and increases their
chances of winning a dinner set.

AN APPRECIATION OF JAMES
G. BURROUGHS
Once upon a time, in far-off Italy
two brothers lived upon little adjoin
ing farms. One was single and the
other was married. It chanced that a
certain year the wheat crop was cut
short by drouth, so that each man had
barely enough for his own need*.
One night the married man lay
awake thinking of his brother. “The
poor fellow is single, and does not have
the comfort and happiness of home as
I do. He is worried about his harvest,
I will get lip and carry some sheaves
of wheat into his field, and h e will be
happier."
On the same night the bachelor was
thtnking of his brother—“ The poor fel
low is married, and has a host of bur
dots and care® that I do not have
to bear. He is doubtless worried about
his small harvest, I will get up and
carry some of my wheat into his field,
and when he se*e the shocks, he wilt
be happier ’*
Out Into the darkneto of the night
went these brothers, each lugging
wheat into the other’s field—The moon
• came suddenly from behind a cloud
• and they stood facing each other with
wheat sheaves under their arms.
This true story portrays perfectly
the disposition and nature of J. E.
Burroughs. An honored life closed
December 12, 1»32, when the gentle,
unassuming spirit of James E. Bur
roughs left its earthly tenement and
winged its flight into the glorious
company of his Savior. All that was
high and noble, clean in character,
true in ftfth, splendid in business af
fair*, all that was Godly and Christian
In human character was in th e life of

because he is not here. So many are
gathering these so many are leaving
here, we begin to feel like sojourners
only waiting, hoping, watching, with
our hearts turned toward the Kingdom
of Heaven.
As we stood in peaceful Herman
cemetery beside the mound of gorge
ous flowers, th e silent and last tYibute
to the love and respect in which this
good map was held, the flowers seem

Byron;
May its verdue lik e emeralds be;

young, he, with his father, William
Burroughs, moved to ihe home where
he died. He united with the Metho
dist church in early life, continuing
faithful as a stewara until death.
There are two tests of Christian life,
one found in the Epistle of James:
“Pure religion and undefiled before
God and the Father is this. To visit
the fatherless and widows in their af
fliction and to keep himself unspotted
from the world,’’ and the other is
found in the lofty theme of Micah:
“What doth the Lord require of thee
but to do justly and to walk humbly
with thy God?” Mr. Burroughs meas
ured up to both of these standards.
And so we count It a privilege to
-have known him and .trust that the
memory of his gentle Christian life
will inspire us and his family to high
er endeavors in the Masters’ cause,
for then we, too. shall find light at
evening tide.
