A blind man is poor man, and blind a poor
For the former sees no man, and the latter no
man sees
Whereunto Is money good?
Who has it not wants hardihood,
Who has 1t has much trouble and care,
Who once has had it has despair.
Then comes the wild weather. come sleet or
snow,
We will stand by each other, however it blow
Oppression and sickness and SORROW and pain
Shall be to our true love like links to chain.
Joy, temperance and repose
Slam the door on the doctors nose.
Then let's go back again, back to Griggsby's
station,
Where used to be so happy and so poor
There is much variety about the cos
tunes. You can say that the girls shall
all wear shirt waists and skirts, or
make them wear ragged and torn
dresses, in which case the young men
could wear old camping clothes, or some
other worn out garments.
Dear Aunt Laurie:
My older sister has a birthday early
in February and I am at a loss to
know what to give her for a present
I spent all my money for Christmas
presents and cannot get anything
which costs much. Can you suggest
some inexpensive trif1e which she will
like? WORRIED WINNIE.
Last Christmas I had given to me
big, square pincushion fitted out
with a collection of pins of all va
rieties. There are white pins and
safety pins, in both black and white,
in
large black heads and pins with large
white ones; pearl-headed pins and gold
headed pins by the dozen, and last,
but not least, a variety of hatpins.
Until you have possessed such
cushion, it is impossible to realize what
comfort it can be, and to anyone
who wants to give a friend an mex
pensive present, that will be thorough
ly appreciated, I can cordially COM
mend such gift.
Dear Aunt Laurie:
We have tried nearly all the games
you have told us about in the Junior
and found them lots of fun. Now we
are going to entertain the girls of my
school club at our house early next
month and I thought that perhaps you
could suggest some games which
would have some spelling in them, or
soemthing like that, for we girls are
all in the same class at school and
each tries to keep ahead of the other
in our school work. LOUISE.
Here are two games, Louise, which
you may like to try. One, the wireless
telegram game, will give you a chance
to see which is the quickest in fitting
letters into words, while the other one
will give each one a chance to dis
play her knowledge of books. hope
that you will have a nice time at the
class party.
Wireless kilograms
This is party game To prepare
for it write ten letters, any ten, on
number of slips and distribute them
among the players, giving one to each
couple. All the slips have the same
combination of letters. Then the play
ers are told that these are some tele-
grams which came by wireless teleg-
raphy, but the instruments being out
of order only the first letter of each
word was received. The players are to
fill in the words so that they make in
telligible messages. They are told the
subject of the message. For instance,
a message to an old lady informing her
of the death of her dog, the letters be-
ing L F D T d S w S o S. One
couple might fill this out as, Last
Friday Dear Towser Died Suddenly,
Want Some Orders Soon,' and another
couple might write, Little Fido Died
Today. Shall We Skin Or Stuff" The
couples sign their kilograms and they
are read aloud. The partners whose
telegram is voted the best gain point
each. Then new slips are given around
and new partners chosen. Whoever
has gained the most points at the end
of the game is the winner.
Book Title Party
Cards which give the different book
names should be prepared in advance
of the occasion.
AS each girl arrives a ribbon on
which card is swung is hung around
