We're here because of a better rea-
son than that, however.
We're here because some one was
brave enough to give us birth, be-
cause some one was content to spend
many a sIeepless, weary night and
tiresome day of toll guarding us from
ills of childhood, protecting us from
our little temptations, defining for
us the difference between right and
wrong, giving us the chance to grow
up into strong, intelligent men-and
all this WITHOUT hope of REWARD.

was MOTHER!

of others in some infantile sickness?

New eras and epochs are heralded be.
cause of daring, Every religion, moral

criticism of religious daring.
God expects each individual to do
that individual work in an individual

Never before has there been time for
such religious daring as now in the
awful turmoil of a battlc.ridden Europe,
for a man to step out and establish the

Indian Egg Dance.

Want q new dance? Why not try the Indian egg dance? Place IS eggs in rows on the floor and dance rapidly zigzag among them without breaking any of them-that's all. An expert says it takes four or five years of prac- tice to become an adept and that learners will do well to use potatoes during the first two or three years of practice. It may be added that 1t is advisable to use strictly fresh eggs at any stage of the game. The req son for this precaution can readily be understood by securing a defunct egg and breaking the shell suddenly with an ax.
