DEAR C. c. FEIEsDs: In recent articles Of Donts
IN G. G. 10 boys and girls, think the following
hints were omitted: j,
a sto0p in your bRck. as II you had curvature OF
The spine. Always stand erect, nnd wheh you you
walk, throw buck your shoulders and laHe tiat
kinll out 81 your backbone. IL this easier Haid
Than done? No. It isn't ii you'll always remem-
Der 10 throw MP your chin. 49,,
To the roaming lads aud lasslcs oi our AluD let
me repcat i.ie following familiar verses;
STAY AT HOME.
To stay n home, my friends is best;
Housekeeping hearts are happiost;
For those tAat wander. they know not WHERE
Are full - trouble and fui Of care.
To stay at home Is best.
Weary and homesick and distressed,
They wander east and they wander west'
And are LUfflgd aud beaten and blown HbOut
by the winds Of the wilderness Of doubt.
To stay at home is best,
Thcn stay at home, my friends. It's best;
The bird D. safest la It's nest;
Ger All tiat Gutter iaoir wings and ny
A hawk b. lowering In the sky.
To stay az home Is best.
Yours Pro Patria--Manie X. COnklin, Farming
