It is only when freely submit our wills to the vine Will that we experience that inner strength that sustains us, and in turn is a bulwark for those de- pending upon us. It is not my p here to tell of some of my id oli except to say that they have been resolved or rendered tolerable, and even sometimes made a source of spiri- tual uplift, by overlooking the human elements in them, and of- feri the sufferance to God In fact it gets to be a game. Once you can say, with the on- coming soul torture, "If I have to take it, I will take it gladly, only don't forget me, God," half the salt is washed from the wounds. Surely the spiritual giants who have walked the earth have achieved their stature only through victory over the world, the flesh and the devil, and that through constant faith and increasing prayer. Favorite Prayer Cited Thomas A. Kempis' "Imitation of Christ" is part of my daily devotion. I notice you refer to his counsel, as well as to Frank Sheed's '"Theology and Sanity." The latter book gave me such a feeling of the majesty and omnipotence of our Creator as few books or ser- mons could. How can we be shackled to earthly chains when our spirit can soar with the Eter- nal?

"Sond order to ANNE ADAMS, the warp and woof of my spiritual cloak.

Don't Limit its Power Dear R.F.: Thank you for this gracious testimony to the ever- present helpfulness of the Holy Spirit in individual lives that recog- nize their kinship to it. All that you say makes sense to all who pray, with some real under- Sanding of the nature of prayer. But still, it seems to me you aren't expecting enough of prayer, if you assume that its chief characteristic benefits consists in the develop- ment of inner strength with which to endure trials and withstand temptations. Resilient quiet inner strength is gradually built up as a by-product of prayer faithfully employed to improve the quality of one's ex- perience. But this is only a by- product, in my opinion, as com- pared to other potentials or pur- poses of prayer. Expect Happy Answer It seems to me that effective prayer, as exemplified by Jesus, is intended to invoke practical down-to-earth solutions of difficul- ties. Jesus changed water into wine, multiplied a few loaves and fishes into a banquet for mul- titudes, healed the sick, cast out devils, raised the dead and so on, all in response to His confident knowing use of prayer. Further, He told his disciples that they might do all that He had done and more, "and greater things than these shall ye do." I take this 'as a reminder to Chris- tians to expect, and to get, results, rvellous results, when they pray t t was The Women by Clare Boothe Luce in 1936.

He was playing with two actors who had a mere 88 years of film experience between them. Eager young Tony was holding his own. But he couldn't hope to beat out a couple of scene stealers like Paul Kelly and Sidney Black- mer. These boys have been around. "I think I go back farther than anyone around here," said Black- mer confidently. "I was with Pearl White in 'The Perils of Pauline." "' "Hold on," Kelly corrected. 'Can You go back as far as 1907? I 0." 5 Ld "That beats me," Blackmer shrugged. JUST WATCHING Kelly explained that he lived near the old Vitagraph studio in New York when he was a boy. He was doing stage roles at the time, and he would drop into the studio to ask 'about jobs. He be- came "the Vitagaph Boy" and starred in the first one- and two- reelers ever made. Blagkmer broke into pictures even more accidentally. "In 1911, I was up in New York on a vacation from studying law at the University of North Caro- lina," he said. "I happened to be Years as Star watching' them make some movies in Union square when I was picked out of the crowd. "I was told to report the next day in a dress suit. I didn't have one, so I hocked a prep school graduation present, I was there and ready for work the next day." Both men went on to do hun- dreds of movies; Kelly figures he has appeared in more than 500. Both have combined stage and screen work throughout their car- eers. Strangely enough, although they were stars as leading men, they found their great OLD-TIME AUTOS! THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Monday, November §, 1953 § KEEP IN TRIM By IDA JEAN KAIN A skeptical lassie demands to know the truth of that comforting promise given overweight teenag- ers, to wit: "Don't worry, you'll outgrow your fat." I wouldn't try to fool you. Here it is: You can outgrow the fat, but if your food habits are all wrong and in a fat- !tening direction, it's likely the pounds will w with munching that chocolate bar at 400 calories, and put two and two together: For growing up, you need an abundance of the foods which fur- nish building material -- protein and minerals; Vitamins are.neces- sary too. To get nature pulling for you, use this daily food pattern: 3 glasses of milk, one or two eggs, a liberal serving of lean meat or fish or fowl; plenty of vegetables, : particulary the dark green leafy and yellow ones to furnish vita- mins; and fruits, incuding oranges in later life. BROADWAY HIT Kelly went back.to Broadway af- ter the last war and was a hit in "Command Decision." He repeated a couple of years ago with "The Country Girl." Blackmer walked off with nearly all the acting awards when he played 'Come Back, Little Seba" with Shirley Booth in New York and on the road. Their stage hits brought them new prosperity in films. '"My best period," reported Kelly, "was af- ter 'Command Pecision." I came back to Hollywood and made more for doing less than I ever have in my life." Although they have known each other since 1920, they have never appeared together until now. CHILD GUIDANCE How Parents Can Help Child To Succeed at By G.

He is fortunate if he has no an- xieties hanging over him from last year's unpleasant experiences sucH as low grades or even from failures. \ If he lagged at school last year, don't remind him of it now or warn him what will happen if he doesn't study hard. If he volun- teers discussion of the matter, as- sure him you will do anything to help him, even to finding some kind, patient teacher to tutor him a few times a week. Then keep your word. . In case your child has heard things about a certain teacher {that have led him to suppose he won't like her or him, suggest that he try early to find out what this t@acher expects and then to measure up to .this expectation. You even might discover ways to build up in him a growing regard for, and faith in, this teacher dur- ing the early weeks and months of school. And sometimes a child in the early grades was so de- voted to his teacher. last year that he feels anxious about the new teacher. We parents are on trial when the child at the beginning school is sure he won't like a cer- tain teacher. Negative sugges- tions related thereto can do un- told harm, just as the right posi- tive suggestion could be helpful.
