If you could pray you a prayer, or wish
you just one wish and have 1t granted.
for what would you ask?
Answers to this question, asked the
readers of The Washington Herald S
Page for Every Woman yesterday, are
coming promptly and fulfill my expecta-
ton that the desires of the human heart
are as far apart at the two poles:
Mrs. Virginia V. Hammond writes me
in answer to the inquiry:
Dear Mrs. Manz:
Until you put your question to your
readers concerning the desire that lies
nearest their hearts, I had never given
the subject consideration, and 1t proved
matter Of intense interest to me to
examine myself and learn the one prayer
that 1 would voice had I the assurance
that it would be granted to the exclusion
Of all others.
Would Be a Queen.
my one prayer, have decided, would
be for power. All my life the desire to
rule has been my dominating passion,
and could I have one wish granted me I
would ask to be made queen OF some
powerful land, having millions Of people
obey my commands.
Perhaps you will think this a most
worldly wish, but I have dug deep into
my heart and am sincere in my belief
that this is the thing that 1 would ask"
Very different is the next answer re-
ceived to my question, which was sent
me by a young woman who desires her
name withheld in the publication Of her
letter
This is what she writes:
Wants Many Children.
IF I could pray me a prayer and have
it granted, not knowing II any other
great joy except this would be given to
me throughout my life, I would ask for
the voices of many children in my house.
II say In my house because no house
is a home where children are not, and
no child has come to me in the seven
years of my marriage.
Il watch mothers who hug little babies
close; oh, very close and tenderly. I
watch the men who are their husbands
bend above them in pride and devotion;
/ watch women who work until they are
ready to drop because they love little
children with such an infinitude of love.
that no work is too hard; no sacrifice
too great that promotes their welfare,
and envy them all.
Would Give All for Motherhood.
Il would give my idle, restless life to
the poorest mother in the world for the
transfer of her motherhood, could it be.
/ would give Ill the gayety and transi-
could I tuck the cover about little chill
dren in the night; hear their prayers at
my knee, and feel the peace and con-
tentment that illunines the faces of the
many mothers know.
Yes Mrs. Manz, IL I could pray me
a prayer and have It granted it would
be for many children in my home, the
more the better
The Call of Youth.
From a girl who is just entering her
twenties comes the never-failing call Of
youth.
MY one wish would be for love. L
would be loved as no woman has ever
been loved before. would be loved by a
strong, splendid man, whose passion for
me would grow with each succeeding
year, and know no change whatever else
might come.
IF might ask my good fairy for but
one gift 1t would be for love.

never was there such happiness in the
forest
"Oh, / am glad to see you'll am
glad to see you" the little leaves would
shout as they were whirled past each
other and back again. And all night
long they few about through the air.
Suddenly from afar off over the
eastern hilltop there appeared a fash
of light. A new day was coming.
"The day is coming, the day Is COM

they sank to the ground.
And then the most wonderful thing
of all happened, for the life Of every
leaf flew back to its own particular
tree, leaving behind them on the
ground their pretty dresses, which
later would dry and curl up and be
blown away.

One of the prettiest, however, or rather
one that pleased very much, was a tailor
costume of dark blue liberty satin, rather
narrow around the ankles, according to
fashions decree. and having a short
tightly fitting jacket ornamented with a
very broad collar and ample revers OF
thick white corded silk ottoman with
cuffs to correspond. ..
A white lace blouse, white gloves, and
a tall hat of white Tagel straw, trimmed
with an exquisite wreath OF white acacia
bloom, completed a most tasteful ensem-
Bile, a fine white Chantilly lace veil en-
veloping the pretty features of the fair
haired wearer.
Many white Tagel hats were trimmed
with a smart tuft of bronze-green roos-
ters' feathers. very smart with tailor
mades, but the dominant note of the day
was visible in white Indian muslin gowns,
profusely embroidered, and worn over
white or soft-colored satin undergowns.

Only the sound of the cool

along through the branches could be

the stiffness with his mournful hoo

Easter Sunday

Easter. services began at six
o'clock in the morning in the
Methodist church and were fairly
Eweli-attendsd. At the services at
ten thirty the pastor talked of the
Resurrection and the lessons
taught by the event. His dis
course was a learned one and
enjoyed by the large congregation.
The children had an egg hunt
after Sunday school. Flowers in
abundance we're used to decorate
the church and the canary birds
made the music sweeter by adding
their voices with those of the
children.
In the evening the cantata
Jerusalem was given by q choir Of
tweoty voices led by Miss Jennie
Rudd. The opera house was
packet and all have spoken in
praise It the sacred music given.
