EGG LOSS IN SHIPMENT .,

rording to careful estimates. Nearly
two out of every ten damaged eggs are
st badly mashed that they are uselesr
for food purposes. The other eight eggs
get light cracks. 1t is estimated that
last year cracked eggs caused loss OF

1t costs only ten cents case in the
producing sections to grade and pack

holding thirty dozen. The depar tme Mt
marketing specialists advise farmer
and packers to use only new filters in
the cases. Most of the cracking of
eggs in shipment is due to the use OF
second hand card board filters and flats

CMan Special to The Advertiser,


klhi'E. April 3N-Mucb interest has

Mr. judd, Reverend Mr. Schonk, Rev.

Of KAUAI are also deeply Interested.
The important meetings carly in the
session related to the Chinese churches
and to the Christian Endpavor sOcie-.
tics. In regard to the former matters
Mr.. Schenk discussed the erection of
minister 5 home in Hanalei in which
the work for tho chinese could center.

Land NODDED Badly .E5
The association voted that 5000
should be raised after land on which
the building might be built had been
obtained The land belongs to A. S.
Wilcox of Llhue at present and the
only hope of the success of the erection
of the proposed parsonage lies in some
provision being made by him. A lease
of the land for a period of several
years, or the granting of it through
fee-simple rights, would obliviate the
present difficulties and mean success
to the movement. The Chinese minis
ter is now living In the Hawaiian par
sonage and no adequate means for ear
rylng on the work are at hand. Six
hundred dollars for the repair of the
Chinese church in Waimea was also
voted to be subscribed. One half Of
this sum, according to the regulations
Of the association, must be raised by
the local people of Waimea, before the
people of the other districts will com
plete their subscriptions. If At present
5000 have been raised in Lihue and the
other hundred will soon be subscribed.
Endeavor Is Reorganized r..r ,sg
In regard to the Christian yEndeavor
movement, several important plans
have been made by Reverend Mr.. Aka
ma fer the organization of various so
cieties. On Kauai, the Christian En-
deavOr work has spread to the older
people instead of remaining in young
er circles. A good deal of friction has
resulted as the offices and hOnors have
gone TO the older rather than the
younger members. Mr.. Akana suggest.
ID that four divisions be formed in the
Christian EndoayOr work. The first
would include the youngest children
up to six years of age, the second from
six to fourteen years; the intermediate
society would include young persons
from fourteen to eighteen years, AMI
the young folk from eighteen to TWEEN
~ six would make up the third divi-
sion aud the senior society will include
those past that age.
Other meetings of interest will take
place before the adjournment on Mon.

CHRIST IN FLANDERS

Read by Doctor KinsOlylnE in st. Pouls church.
Baltimore.
We had forgotten You, or very nearly,
You did not seem to touch very nearly,
OF course we thought about You now and them
Especially in any time of trouble
We knew that You were good in time of trouble
But we are very ordinary men.
And there were always other things to think of,
There's lots of things a man has got to think Of
His work, his home, his pleasure, and his
wife;
And SO we only thought of You on Sunday,
Sometimes, perhaps, not even Sunday.
Because there's always lots to fill ones life.
And, all the while, in street or lane or byway,
In country lane, in city street, or byway.
You walked among u.s. and did not see
Your feet were bleeding as You walked our
pavements.
How did we miss Your footprints on our pave
Can there be other folk as blind as we?
Now we remember; over here in Flanders,
Ut isn't strange to think of You in Flanders)
This hideous warfare seems to make things
clear.
We never thought about You much in England
But that far away from England,
We have no doubts. We know that You are
here
You helped us pass the jest along the trenches
Where, in cold blood, we waited in the trenches.
You touched its ribaldry and made 1t fine,
You stood beside us in our pain and weakness.
We're glad to think You understand weak
Somehow it seems to help not to whine.
We think about You kneeling in the Garden,
All! God! the agony of that dread Garden;
We know You prayed for upon the Cross.
If anything could make us glad to bear it.
'Twould be the knowledge that You willed to
bear it,
Pain death, the uttermost of human loss.
Though we forget You. You will not forget u.s.
We feel so sure that You will not forget u.s.
But stay with US until this dream is past;
And SO we ask for courage, strength and pardon.
Especially, think, we ask for pardon.
And that You'll stand beside us to the last.

Sir-If it be true as Evangelist Slough said at

Christian Science does not teach that God
created sin or sent sin into the world or that
il is an eternal fact OF being from which there
could not create evil nor send 1t upon mankind.
for this in itself would be evil thing, and IL
is unthinkable that God should sin. The Chris

in the following excerpts from Science and

both for what II Is and for what IL does and
the way 10 escape the misery OF sin Is to cease

Science the individual is not freed from sin

To the Editor Of Evening Ledger:
Sir-For a considerable time I have been in
terested in collecting Counting OUT rhymes
used by children in determining who shall be
'it'' In games of tag or "hide and seek"
From several publications in the EVENING
LEDGER 1 find that others are interested in the
same subject.
The of these rhymes is not confined to our
own land. Some years ago an American clergy
man of my acquaintance whose grandfather, a
native of Holland had taught him counting
out" rhyme used in his young days in that
country was travelling In that land of lakes
and CHANGED to stop by some children playing
He repeated, in their hearing. the rhyme he had
learned, this constituting his only knowledge
of their language At once there was excite
ment. The children at once recognized the
rhyme. The parents were summoned and, al
though neither party could understand the
speech of the other, the clergyman was treated
like a long-lost brother. j. A. ANDERSON.
