II WERE RICH.

Dear Household Friends: =:
A certain farm magazine once asked
it's contributors to tell what they would
do, OF. get, if they were rich, and among
a few other comic replies was one from
a man who said that if he were rich he
would have n pair of suspenders for
every pair of trousers he had. Being
compelled to. interrupt my writing fire.
quently in order to put on a;fresh Eight
ard knot" after having esconced myself
in comfort and in the big chair, most
caused me to think aloud in veXation,
'If were rich I'd have a back chunk
to burn" and L must confess I didn't
stop at thinking that for when the
pieces all happened to be too long that
didn't tend to alleviate the vexation,
They are not always too long though,
for some cold nights I have to go off to
bed way long time before 1 want to,
and l go to sleep thinking, Wouldn't
many of my fellow teachers think they
were fortunate if these were the great
est of their trouhles!'.'
Ever since Alice Collins letter APP
peared last summer | have wanted to
comment upon the oft repeated saying
that she quoted namely. that. Life is
what we make it," which she modified
by adding ito a great extent I once
said the same thing in. a letter to this
page, but time changes sO~many things,
that not even our way of thinking es-
capes, quite frequently.
To a great extent. 1 believe we can
make the part of our life that our as
ISOLATION see. what we wish to make it,
but how often a cheerful exterior hides
a sad and disconnected heart and life.
Our happiness is derived from those we
love or from things we love to do, and
as no one lives to himself apart often
we are .hindered by some one from do
ing what we would like to do. Perhaps
the failure of some one to do his duty
throws burdens upon us and handicaps
us in every respect, or perhaps. some
loved ones waywardness fills our lives
with misery. We each hold a share of
the happiness OF several others i'm our
hands. and several others hold share
Of ours.

FTyHE chairmen Of the State Chapters
i Of the Pennsylvania Women's Divis-
ion for Preparedness met this morning
at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. George w.
Childs Drexel to discuss further the
carrying out of the plans for national
preparedness, in which woman is doing
her part as well as man. Reports were
made by the various chairmen and the
results from the classes already started
are quite marvellous. Mrs. Drexel her
self is among the foremost of the women
interested in this movement. She has
always been an enthusiastic supporter
of her nephew, Tony Biddle, and Tony,
YOU know, was one of the first men to
take the initiative toward the general
movement for preparedness for what
may come.
Mrs. Drexel has placed her city house
at the disposal of the chalrmen of these
different committees all through the
spring and summer, If they desire to
meet there. She is woman of strong
convictions and in her quiet way lives
up to those convictions with great
thoroughness,
The meeting this morning was called
at 10 o'clock, and after the business of
the sections was finished, Mrs. DreXel
entertained her guests and fellow
workers at luncheon.
The Secours Duryea is doing very
wonderful work. The members meet
every Thursday morning at Mrs. Joe
DuBarry's. and sew, as you know but
now / hear they are making special
plea for secondhand clothing, which
Miss Nancy Coleman will receive at 100
Arch street If directed to her there. All
the shipping is done through the
French Committee of the Emergency
Aid. The members of the Secours Dur
yea include Mrs. Albert Smith. who Is
president; Mrs. DuBarry, Miss Cole
man, Miss Margot Scull, Miss Eleanor
HOPKINS, Mrs. Clement Reeves Vain
wright, Mrs. w. Standley Stokes, Mrs.
Sidney T. T. Brock. Mrs. William Cloth
Ter, Mrs Howard Llggett. Miss Aimee
Hutchinson, Miss Hannah Wright,
Miss Margaret Wright, Miss Sarah
Penrose, Mrs. Lawrence Butler, Miss
Sophie Borie Norris, Miss Mary
Denckla and Mrs. Henry Thouron.
Many of us are interested in the first
performance of the Passion Play, which
will be given this evening in the Metro
politan Opera House by the young men
of the Dramatic Association attached
to st. Joseph's College, an institution
conducted in this city by the Jesuit
Fathers. The dramatic association has
had very wonderful success In the
various plays which have been staged
in earlier years, but this is its first
undertaking of such proportions. Judg-
ing from the dress rehearsal there is no
doubt of it's success and of the effect
upon the audience. which cannot but
be greatly impressed at the reverent
handling OF the greatest tragedy of the
world. There is nothing to offend
the most sacred feeling, as neither
Jesus nor Mary appear on the stage.
The actors are exceedingly well trained
and the scenery and color scheme of
the costumes are very artistic.
