FARM FIRES.
There is no more pathetic
sight in the World than a farm
house on fire. In town or city,
where modern and costly fire-
fighting equipment is at hand to
battle any blaze that may arise,
a fire never appears as r deplor-
able as one- out on tile farm
where the best to be had| in fire-
fighting equipment consists of a

Farm fires in the U. ’>. 1 ^
year occasioned a loss of v--o,-
000,000. Besides that, 3,500 peo-
ple lost their lives in fires in
rural communities. In an effort
to reduce that^ loss, and knowing
as everyone around Teague knows
_ that a majority of farm firse can
be traced directly to carelessness,
the Department of Agriculture is
issuing some timely and practical
suggestions, tlere they are—and
they are worth memorizing and
acting upon:
Organize, train and equip a
rural fire department in each
.community, )
Arrange for a suitable fire
alarm system in your community.
Provide water storage on farms
and near rural public buildings.
Install fire extinguishers about
farm buildings.
Have a roadway available to a
stream or pond where the fire
department can pump water in
an emergency.
Look for fire hazards about
the farm and remove them
promptly.

Lesson for November 10/A. Ezekiel
33 :7-16.
Golden Text: Romans 14:12.
Thank goodness we got the In-
dians cleared -out before it be-
came; wicked to steal the terri-
tory of the weak.
What’s the use? Our race -has
spent 5000 years trying to get
out of work, and now look at it.

The majority of Jews interpreted
the exile as a complete disaster. It
certainly gave the popular religion a
rude blow, for the temptation to bow
down to the Babyl-
onian gods became
strong. But a de-
voted few re-
mained true to the
old faith under the
new skies. Ezekiel
was the leader of
this group. What
had brought a loss
of faith to others
meant a gain of
faith to him. If
there had been no

mained a priest. The exile made him
one of the greatest of the prophets.
What is the message of this heroic
hgure with his strange visions by the
river Chehar? First of all, Ezekiel is
the prophet of the individual soul.
While Isaiah and Jeremiah bore in
their hearts the sorrows of the whole
people, Ezekiel addressed troubled in-
dividuals. With the national hopes en-
kindled under Josiah dashed to pieces,
it was necessary for the prophet t\
herald an individual message. .
The grandeur of Ezekiel’s book is
the importance it gives to the lonely
human soul. Personal responsibility for
personal sins is Ezekiel’s favorite
teaching. Consider-the famous 18th
chapter with its ringing declaration,
“The soul that sinneth, it shall die.”
Men, the prophet insists, must look to
themselves, and not to their ancestors.
Secondly, Ezekiel is the prophet of
thg, church. There are many chapters
on the restored church in Zion, to be
governed by the prince of David’s
bouse. And the necessity of pastoral
care is prominent. The virtue of shep-
herding is continually brought to the
front in Ezekiel’s sermons.
Thus Ezekiel’s visions make a fine
book for preachers. But it is a splendid
volume also for the folk in the pews
We need to be strong churchmen, tq

must be gathered, in this "cloudy and
