And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them. .Matthew 21:14. Every believer is God's miracle. A Time for Faith and Let's look quite calmly at national defense. There are going to be some strikes and threats of strikes. There always have be,en, especially when production is rising, employment increasing, and spring weather beckons. In spite of the defense effort there will be strikes. England has them even now, while she fights for life. Why do we permit this at all? Why does England? Because Be-cause we both have full faith that better production and more of it will come in the long run from free workmen than from the slave-galley factories of continental Europe where strikes have ended, true, but so has liberty. There are certain kinds of strikes, however, which merit special attention. and which will not occur if American workmen work-men and American employers are as wise and as loyal as we believe they are. First, there is a possibility that strikes may be fomented by certain groups specifically for the purpose of interfering with the defense program. We believe there are too few American workmen allied with such groups to make this sort of thing dangerous. The greater danger is that all strikes will be put in this class by .in emotional public. Second, there is a possibility of "organization strikes" being called in shops with almost no union members, simply on the hope of labor leaders that recognition can be forced by putting the employer "on the spot" in the defense crisis. Third, the jurisdictional strike. To strike simply because other workers, members of a legitimate and recognized union working under legal contract, are rivals to the striking union, is out of order today. Fourth, there may be strikes in plants whose managers will try to take advantage of the defense situation and the unpopularity of strikes to break up well-established unions and nullify their quite legitimate efforts to keep their members mem-bers afloat in the stream of rising prices and new conditions. The Wagner Act provides machinery for showing by orderly or-derly vote who represents who in anv "shop. The federal government offers conciliation and mediation machinery, and is increasing it. N.ow is the time to use it, and the spirit back of it. as never before. The President, in appealing against "unnecessary" strikes and "short-sighted" management, struck the keynote bv emphasizing that neither labor nor management will be able to keep freedom if the present effort fails. Both must w. wise, foresighted and willing to accept the responsibilities of the day and time. Some of the labor situations which will arise this spring will be trying. They will require every ounce of patience for settlement without either taking from labor its hard-earned rights or allowing it to ride employers and the public.

I Was Thinking- By ELSIE C. CARROLL ABOUT TREKS I was thinking- this summer while I was having- the opportunity oppor-tunity to associate closely with trees and to feel their individuality individu-ality and personality, how much people miss wno are denied the pleasure trees can give. There is something different about trees in the canyons and mountains from even the same kinds growing- out of their natural hatitat. The beautiful conifers that give a stately grandeur to a hillside or. glen, seldom thrive so well if they are transplanted. They seem to be doing their best, but they lack the freshness, the heavy-ness heavy-ness of foliage of their undisturbed brothers and sisters. I saw one recently on a lawn of a city home. There was nothing- else " on the grounds that seemed companiable to it. Every other tree was well-groomed,, well-groomed,, "citified." The old pine looked lonesome and forlorn. Strangely enough it reminded me of a vaudeville show I once saw, in which three magnificient White horses performed. Their stunts were quite amazing-, but there was something pathetic in the very fact that those great animals, ani-mals, naturally for the wide spaces of the out-of-doors, were reduced to mere automators, kneeling, waltzing, doing- a dozen unnatural things as docilly as if they had never raced on an open road. It is strange how attached one becomes to trees around one's home. Perhaps not strange, either; for we become in the same way attached to inanimate objects, ob-jects, and trees, as T said before, Lr urge ill TOW mi IP LCPRECHAUnI will KlMDLY ASK Mifvl TO 6f?lf4(T US SPEOAL LUCK (r4 CA.Se OF a 'Nvasiom. THUiTY YEARS do have life and even a sort of personality and character. We remember certain trees as we do people. I saw again this summer an old tree of which I always think as a tree with character. The lower part of the great trunk lies almost pararrel with the ground; evidently some mighty force had bent the tree during its early years of growth. But the upper part of the trunk stands as straight and tall as the others which surround it. The sight intrigues in-trigues the imagination. I wish I knew what caused the tree to bow almost to the earth, and then rise to such a stalwart position. The tree, of course, has inspired artists and poets, rt has become a symbol of many lovely things, including friendship. Like friendship, friend-ship, the tree sustains and shelters; shel-ters; it gives quiet comfort- and strength; it grows more strong" and beautiful with the years. It is associated in the minds of both pagans and Christians with other things which to them have great significance. Omar Khayam wrote: "A book of Verses, underneath the Bough, A Jug of Wine, a Loaf of Bread and Thou Beside me singing in the Wilderness Wilder-ness Ah, Wilderness were Paradise enow!" ' To the pagan the tree was one of the few things necessary for perfect 'happiness. To the Christian Chris-tian it has a different connotation. connota-tion. It is bound close to the sacrifice sac-rifice of Christ in his redemption of man. 'He fought his great battle, bat-tle, we are told, under a tree. Dorothy F. Gurney says: "He broke it (his heart) for us in a garden Under the olive trees." Sidney Lanier expresses the same fact in his "A Ballad of Trees and the Master": "Into the woods by Master Went, Clean forspent, forspent. Out of the woods my Master came, Forspent with love and shame. But the olives they were not blind to Him; The thorn tree had a mind to Him When into the woods He came. Out of the went. And he was Out of the . came, woods my Master well content, woods my Master Content with death and sfaame. When death and shame would woo Him last. From under the trees. they drew Him- last; 'Twas on a tree they slew Him last. When out of the woods He came." Many popular poems have been written about trees their beauty, their utility. Joyce Kilmer's lines whic"n have been set to music are known to everyone: "I think that r shall never see A poem lovely as a tree " A. E. Houseman makes the cherry tree the symbol of all the loveliness in nature which life affords too little time to see: "And since to look on things in bloom Fifty years are little room About the woodland I will go To see the cherry 'hung with snow." George p. Morris in his "Woodman "Wood-man Spare That Tree." is perhaps per-haps a bit sentimental: "That old familiar tree Whose glory and renoun Are spread o'er land and sea " But he isn't alone In his feelings' about the glory of the tree. Mr. John D. Rockefeller spent more than $1000 to replace a tree that had died at Rockefeller Center last summer.

Local writers appearing in various var-ious state magazines: Mrs. Estelle S. Harris, with an article, "Women "Wo-men the World Around," In the March Relief society Magazine. This is an interesting story of the curious habits and ways of living among women of foreign lands as seen by the writer during a recent tour. Pictures of pointed insight accompany the article. Ann Bos Hart, Instructor at Brigham Young university, writes, "Women the Builders of Spirituality. Spiritual-ity. In her article, also in the Relief Society Magazine, Mrs. Hart reviews the cultural and spiritual growth of women in the Itfat - century.- '-Especially -of the "Women of the Relief Society Or ganization from over the world. ..."the great deeds done in com mon, the acts of service to hu manity, the love of women for Uom:n, common spiritual ideals i . . " The article concludes with "...she (woman) can say with Angela Morgan, "Glad is the earth when morn is breaking Man is facing the rising run!" Eva wiles Wangsgaard gives us another "Judith" story. This one la titled, "Only at Fruit Trees." This is the fifth story of a series, all of which have ap peared in the Relief Society Mag azine during the last two years The "Judith" stories are keen psychological stories of the reac tion of a little girl to the grown up world around her. She is in tensely human, altogether lovable and faltering. Not a Pollyanna, but a you-and-I sort of child that makes us live again the joys and agonizing wonders of our childhood. Mrs. Wangsgaard is an Ogden writer, vice president of the League of Utah Writers. Olive W. Burt, Salt Lake City, represents the poets of the league Her poem fololws a calendar series ... this one, "March" has all the lilt of wind and bird note of the month. It prepares our "In ner house, my spirit's home," for the out of Coors. It concludes with thesa fine lines: ' I scan each part Most seriously, with alert and keen eyes To find the hidden cobwebs, dust, debris That have accumulated in my heart." One of the most interest of the Tribune short stories of recent months is 'Say A-a-ah!' by Dorothy Dor-othy Oakley Rea Provo writer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. N. Oakley. Mrs. Rea has a rare gift of humor, and a deft way of expressing it in writing. Her story called forth a long and favorable comment from the story editor. She also writes excellent ex-cellent verse. March 27-28 is the date set for the annual Spring Poetry Festival Festi-val held at the Utah State Agri-cultural Agri-cultural college. Many local poets have been invited to attend.

"The idea Li ridiculous!" ridicu-lous!" she snapped. Yet, the next morning she found herself watching him. He listened with courteous attention as an indignant customer poured out her wrath. He listened with the same politeness while Miss Dane waved her blood-red nails under his nose, laying down the law. This morning, under the usual gardenia in his buttonhole, ,he wore a black and white badge with a crimson ribbon. "SCOTCH SALE" proclaimed the letters on the badge. . Beatrice's lips quirked. There were banners all over the basement base-ment in celebration of Scotch Sales, but this badge was too much. "Miss Davis," he called. "Yes, sir?" "You're not wearing a Scotch Sale badge." "Oh, was I supposed to?" His throat, above his immaculate immacu-late white collar, grew brick red. As if he guessed she'd been laughing laugh-ing at him. TDEATRICE had written seven more sales slips, and waited on two women who had promised to come back after they looked about some more, when Mr. Bradley Brad-ley stopped her as she started for lunch. "I see you never bothered about the badge, Miss Davis." "Oh!" She had genuinely forgotten for-gotten the stupid badge. "I've been so busy. Anyway, it can't mean much, one way or the other. The customers seem . to know there's a sale on, and I've done very well without a badge." Mr. Bradley's brown eyes snapped, and his big hand gripped the edge of the wrapping desk. "Are you trying to make a fool of me?" he asked angrily. She was suddenly angry. Everyone Every-one around her with the slightest scrap of authority seemed positively posi-tively determined to exercise it, insultingly, on her! "As for trying to make a fool of you . . . don't you manage rather well by yourself?" your-self?" Once News, Now History Twenty-five Yeara Ago Today From the File of THE PROVO IlERAUD March 23, 1916 First and Bonneville wards gave their annual entertainment for the old folks in the First ward social hall. There were 100 guests An application for a new power enterprise in Utah county was filed at the state engineer's office by John R. Stewart of Provo. The application was for 10 cubic feet of water per second from the north and south branches of North Fork cfeek in Utah county. It set forth that a cement dam would be constructed in the generation of power which would be utilized for electric light and power purposes. pur-poses. A ball of yarn lighted and thrown by a boy into dry grass in a vacant lot started a fire in Nashville, Tenn., which lasted more than 24 hours and swept 35 residence blocks.

The Vineyard M. I. A. players TO DOUGHNUTS Painful red flooded into the man's lean face. He opened his mouth. The brown eyes took in the heightened color of Beatrice's cheeks, the snapping eyes, and suddenly Mr. Bradley closed his mouth again, without saying anything. any-thing. "You're all riding me!" Beatrice cried. "Just because I don't talk the way the other girls do! Just because I know something about style and fashion and try to help these blundering idiots who come in here rigged up like caricatures!" Mr. . Bradley's expression changed. Beatrice said quickly, "Excuse me for saying that about being a fool ... I didn't mean it It's just that I've taken so many gratuitous insults from so many people around here lately, and haven't been allowed to retort even once. I'm not accustomed to this Spartan self-control." Her smile flashed, "Will you forgive me?" Mr. Bradley said quietly, "Forget "For-get it I couldn't fire you if, I wanted to, if that's what you're thinking. My authority is extremely ex-tremely limited. So limited it is non-existent. And like you, Miss Davis, I'm not accustomed to Spartan self-control either." Miss Dane's rheumy eye spied them. She hurried over, her tight black dress straining at the seams, her blood-red nails startling against the pearls she pulled on nervously. "Aren't you going to lunch, Miss Davis? Don't hold us up!" At the elevator, he was waiting. "It's my time to eat too. Do you mind if I if I lunch with, you?" "I'd love it." - ALL at once, the feud was over. Yet, in : the cafeteria, . he leaned across, the table and said, "I've had the feeling, ever since you came, that you've been laughing laugh-ing at me. Why?" " "I haven't been. I've been too busy learning my job. It's all new to me. I've concentrated on making that quota. And I thought I was doing fine when you bawled me out for advising the customers. cu-stomers. . . ." He played with, a fork. "Miss Dane's orders." "She doesn't know as much as she thinks she does! Times have changed since she started. I'm sure what I was trying to do is much better than selling a customer cus-tomer any dress, just to sell it. And it's my dream to prove I'm right."

But aren't you dog tired at the end of the day?" He grinned. "I almost explode with stifled yawns." Then he asked, "How did you ever get into Huntington's? You're so different from the other girls.

She looked around the crowded room where salesgirls, wrappers, stock girls, shipping clerks, markers, and alteration al-teration hands were eating their lunches. "Most of the people who work for a store like this seem to have drifted into it. They're not career people, they don't bring superior minds and any enthusiasm or even interest to the job. Oh, I'm not blaming them, most of them never had a chance. But, Mr. Bradley, if you see this store differently if you see it the way an architect sees the vision of a house that hasn't even been started yet if you're really so absorbed and sincere sin-cere that you're going to school at night after a hard day here why I think nothing can stop you from coming out on top!" She was breathless, carried away. "You could be general superintendent, superin-tendent, some day!" "I don't think Mr. Bruce Sheldrake Shel-drake need do any overtime worrying," wor-rying," he smiled. "But if you think I'm a ball of fire, you're the first girl who ever did. And that's heartening." "Lots of girls must have 1-liked you . . -. " She dropped her eyes. Suddenly she caught sight of her wristwatch. "Mercy, I've got to run!" "There's not much time for mutual understanding in Huntington's, Hunting-ton's, is there?" he asked ruefully. "I haven't a class tonight Could I come around and call for you after dinner?
