LITTLE DANES AND MEN.

We must all remember when
We were little danes and men,
Whom each sorrow tugged away with all its
might
AT our little hearts ana eyes
Till the air was full Of signs
And the brightest day was turned to darkest
night.
How we'd weep,
How we'd creep
To our little beds to sleep,
With wet lashes on flushed faces; even then
Not soul would ever know
Half our agony, and SO
We should sympathize with little danes ana
men.
We must all remember when
We were little danes and men
When we meet the little ones from day TO day.
A kind word is just as cheap,
And it sinks to depths as deep
As tho harsh one you were sending down their
way.
IL you knew
How few
90 Gracious acts and words from you
We're planted in their souls, to blossom when
Golden days of childhood seem
To be shadows of dream,
You would love and cherish little danes and

Printing Names on Fruit.

The rosy cheek of an apple is on the
sunny side. The colorless apple grows
in the leafy shade. Advantage may be
taken of this to have pleasant surprise
for children. A piece of stiff paper
placed around an apple in the full sun
will shade it, and if the Mary or Robbie
is cut in the paper so that the sun can
color the apple through these stenciled
spaces the little one can gather the APP

Grand Secretary Aschheim paid visit to
Fresno last week and there laid the founda-
tion for the organization of new lodge.
The officiai visits of Grand President Stein
during the past week were the result of bring
ing TO the lodgerooms a large mem bership
and the renewal OF great interest in the work
of the order. Last Tuesday evening he visited
Modin Lodge in company with the members
of the general committee.
The visitors and number of invited guests
were after the business of the lodge had been
brought 10 a close. invited to a sunptuous
banquet, where there was, in addition to the
good things on the table, some eloquent ora
tory.
By reason of q lack OF uniformity in the
manner of preparing the reports of the various
lodges, some delay occurs at the headquart ters
OF the order in the preparation of the status of
the lodge me m oersbip.
An effort will be made to establis h a uniform
system as is done in some other orders, one
that will be SO simple tnat any one can under
stand it without instruction. If secretaries
can be induced to adopt such a system, they
viii in the end save themselves much of the
trouble which the present system Involves and
facilitate work at headquarters.
