7HERE has been an occasional demand that the atroc

course they have been proved up to the hlt But to
one who has read the German War Book proof

be supposed to help toward the winning of any in

"What is permissible the book says, includes every
means of without which the object of the cannot

SHOE CLERKS.

The first thing a shoe clerk does
after he looks at the numbers in your
old shoes is to make UP his mind not
to have an argument with you. He
doesn't want to hear any song and
you doesn't fit.
If you tell him it's too long or too
tight or it's this and it's that he will
shut you up in a fifty. He won't stand
for any of that nonsense. He tells
you that it's the same size you've been
wearing!
There's nothing that makes a shoe
clerk so furious as a bull headed Gus
toner who wants shoe that feels
good on his foot. 1t either max es
him furious or saddens him. He may
yank the shoe off in rage or he may
bite his lips to keep back the tears. In
either case he is sure to resent the in
jury.
People of mild manners would en-
JOY buying shoes more if they felt
able to bully and browbeat the shoe
clerk into selling them the shoe they
want. 1t is often necessary to speak
sharply to the shoe clerk. Tell him
Ilrinly Inat you 40 not choose TO wear
a shoe that pinches. Try to look stern.
Fortunately shoe clerks are usually
small, timfd men. Or we would Oft
ener see them at the door Of their
| shops waving their fists and daring
a customer to come back.
THE DAD.
My neighbor has to plug and dig,
| His salary isn't very big,
Young appetites he must ,appease
With lots and lots of bread and cheese.
Young feet that scramble, kick and
skuff,
Seem never to have shoes enough,
And now and then a youthful Ill
That means another doctor bill.
My neighbours life is such a grind
What joys or pleasure does he find,
Unless perhaps. at close of day,
The chase to meet him UP the way,
| When there comes loudly romping up
-Four kids, a wagon and a pup.
| Except for little things like that
I'm sure his life is dull and fiat.
He has to plug. his wage IL slim.
And gosh. but how envy him!

in an age the occasion is offered
for doing a great deed. True
greatness consists in being great
in little things.
"Club life," it has been said,
teaches us that there are many
kinds Of wealth in the world: the
wealth of ideas, Of knowledge, of
sympathy, of readiness to be put
in any place and used in any way
for the general good. The Wo-
mems Club movement is a mighty
force. Indeed it has been said,
There is not a stronger force for
uplift in American life than the
Women's Clubs The individual
club can do little alone, but col
lectively, all working together with
one purpose, we can do what we
will. The unselfish service which

ters it who the reaper, just so the
harvest is gathered at last?
The speaker urged each local
club to study their local needs; to
choose some one thing that needs
doing in the community, and CO.
operate, every member with the Of
ficers; to work continuously and
tremendously, and greater good
than can be calculated is bound to

Heydrick continued ito see, to be,
to do; to see a vision Of our work;
to be willing and glad to take our
share of the work; and then to do

The speaker closed with congrat-
ulations to the Newark club upon
the completion of their attractive
new club home.
A social hour followed, during
which refreshments were served.

Clubwomen of Newark had as
their guest on Monday, Miss Ray
Heydrick, of Bridgeville, president
of the State Federation of Wo-
mems Clubs. The program opened
with a solo, "The Fleeing Hour"
by Mrs. J. Pearce Cam. The song
with violin obligato by Mr.. Sum-
walt was enjoyed by everyone. A
short business session, the address
of the president, and two instru-
mental numbers, Spring" by
Grieg, and "The Hoop Song" by
the same composer, rendered
charmingly by Mrs. Elliott, CON-
pleted the program.
Miss Heydrick, in an inspiring
talk, emphasized the nobility of
