I'LL TRY

When difficulties line his way,
/ like to hear fellow say:
I'll try!
Confronted by a task that's new,
Perhaps a dangerous mission, too,
] like to see him think it out,
Sum up his chances and reply:
I'll try!
There's something in the boy or man
Who rules himself upon this plan:
I'll try!
Too many say: Il can't" before
They've ever looked a problem DER;
Responsibility they shirk,
And seem to fear unusual work.
This is the phrase of do or die,
I'll try!
Would there were more young men to-
day
When duty calls to them, who'd say
I'll try!
Would fear had not so strong hold
On mortals, and that more were bold;
Bold in their willingness to face
The tasks that are not commonplace
To answer doubt with this reply:
I'll try!

Artistic Articles
Can Be Made From
Remnants of Crash

Often in her rambles in the shops
the watchful needlewoman will be
able to pick up small remnants of
crash, just a little too long for tow
els or of too fine a quality. These she
can make up into numerous artistic
and useful articles if she but takes
the time.
There is a new kind of fudge apron
which calls for a fine crash toweling
A straight piece of toweling about
three-quarters of yard long makes
the front of the apron reaching to
the shoulders. To this are attached
straps which pass over the shoulders,
cross the back and fasten to the front
piece just at the waist line at the
sides. This is a little cooler apron
than the kind which slips over the
head, and has an entire back of the
crash and requires less material, a
yard being almost enough. A suit
able crOss-stitch design is worked at
the bottom OF the apron and the en-
tire edge is blanket-stitched with
blue, even to the Jennings of the
straps at the shoulder line Snaps
under covered buttons hold the strays
at the sides.

tons can be made from length of

Education Sometimes Costly.

For the education of the 1926 seniors
at Yale college slightly more than ST.
600 900 has been required. While it is
figured that $4O73 for the entire four
years is the average cost student,
one man alone has spent $4,000 in
the process of going through college,
while another has required only $500
to provide his education. In this con-
nection it is a noteworthy fact that
100 members of the class have earned
their way through college either in
part or in whole, having earned to
date a grand total of more than $780,
600.
