If father gets the notion In his bead
that he Is going to accomplish every
thing by prayer It makes It bard for
mother, who has to get up early each
morning In order that the children
may have clothes and grub. I ain't
knocking on prayer, mind yon, bat I
don't pray for things that you can get
without it. Atchison County (Kan.)
