Friends Speak Well of Beautiful Woman "Say, Grace, isn't that Mrs Owens over there at the table with the woman in the green hat?" "Why, yes, I believe that is Mrs. Owens. I didn't recognize her, though, until you called my attention to her. I must speak to her before she finishes her luncheon. I haven't seen her to talk to for ages." "I've seen her frequently, but I have just met her. She is a stunning women, isn't she? A remarkably well dressed woman, and she carries herself with such dignity." "Yes, I really think that all in all she is one of the handsomest women I know. She has a sort of stately air, however, that isn't hardly true of her real character. One thinks of her as a bit severe and cold, but she really is the dearest thing and is always doing nice things for her friends." "She seems to be very popular, so she must have a great number of friends." "Oh, yes indeed. Everyone loves Mrs. Owens." "I always admire her clothes when I see her. They are very expensive, of course, and always in such perfect taste." "Oh, really she doesn't spend a great deal of money for clothes, One would think so, though, wouldn't they? She has such perfect taste and she buys practically everything, including hats, at one place--Cherry's, at 2400 Mission Street. They open charge accounts, you know, and do have such attractive clothes. Oh yes, they are open Saturday evenings until 10." ----Advt. Devotion to Christ "She hath done what she could," Mark 14:8. Read Mark 14:1-11 "The ideal homemaker is the ideal philanthropist. She dresses her family with scarlet, and she reaches forth both hands to the great world which needs her." MEDITATION: She how Jesus evaluates sentiment! The devotion of Mary that broke the alabaster box is one with woman's God-given impulses which beget mother love and all the family of altruistic passions which elevate the race. Well may we reverence it! HYMN: In simple trust like theirs who heard, Beside the Syrian sea. The gracious calling of the Lord, Let us, like them, without a word, Rise up and follow thee. PRAYER: O Heavenly Father, shed forth they blesses Spirit richly on all the members of this household. Make each of us an instrument in thy hands for good. Purity our hearts, strengthen our minds and bodies, fill us with mutual love. Let no pride, no self-conceit, no rivalry, no dispute, ever spring up among us. Make us earnest and true, wise and prudent, giving no just cause for offense; and may thy holy peace rest upon us this day and every day, sweetening our trials, cheering us in our work, and keeping us faithful to the end; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. Bennett, Maggie June 23 608 Orvis Ave. San Jose, Cal.
