ninety ENGAGE
IN GARDEN WORK
Second Crop for School Gar.
dens is Growing Now
Venture is Successful.

The second crop during the present
season is now well under way in
many. of the gardens made by the
school children of the city under the
direction of Miss r. A. Hatherell.
The early vegetables which were
planted last spring have been gather
ed and have been replaced by other
varieties which will mature during
the fall.
Peas and beans are the most D
ar crops at present, taking the place
of the lettuce and radishes which
We're grown earlier in the year.
Ninety children are engaged in the
work at present. and most of them
are meeting with great success in
their efforts. They are given instruc-
tions in the work at the demonstra-
ton garden at the Winship school and
apply the theories thus learned to
their gardens at home.
During the state fair recently held
here the work being done in these
school gardens was examined with
much interest by many of the better
farming experts Of the state who were
here at the time.
The general opinion was that the
work along this line being done here
was the most efficient that was being
done in the state.
The gardens are carefully gradu-
ated in size according to the ages Of
the pupils, thus preventing the young
er children from attempting more
than they can handle.

Lord Comoys took his American bride

the coming Of their lord and lady and

pair.

(BY ABIGAIL

A very earnest seeker after beauty
ought to have these words written in
her innermost consciousness: A a
man thinketh in his heart, so is he"
Let them be her guide, philosopher.
and friend. It is physiologically as
we'll as psychologically true that II
you think hard thoughts and take a
harsh, antagonistic view of life gen.
orally. you will show it on your face.
then, however beautiful your features
may be or how peachlike your skin,
you cannot be considered truly beau
tiful. for, after all, beauty, the out
ward semblance Of it, Ia almost en-.
tirely dependent upon the expression
Of the face.
If you train yourself to q receptive
mood, to think kindly and assume a
general attitude Of good will. then
can prove it by your mirror. No
face that radiates goodness and cheer
and broad ~mtndedness can be called
really u~nbeautiful, and I will venture
to say, II the matter could be arrived
at by actual statistics, that there arc
more attractive women among the
plain featured than among those who.
classed among the beauties.
Lois Josephine, one of the Winter
Garden girls, is an excellent example
of the type. She Is not pretty and
yet she Is, and there you are. It is in
a subtle. perplexing something, i'm
possible to indicate, that the charm
lies that makes such girls infinitely
more attractive than the prettiest of
pretty ones.
The first step for the woman who
thinks herself unattractive is to COM
mune with her mirror-let it show
her just. what effect upon her coun-
tenance each different emition-an-
ger, hate, evaporation. sullenness,
revenge-has.l and then similarly the
effect Of kindness, charity. content
ment. Joy and serenity. Then let her
decide which emotions to avoid and
which to'permit full sway over her.
