A GOLDEN PROMISE.

Dear Social Corner Sisters:-why
not have a bird club? Those who join
20 pledge themselves not to wear
feathers Except ostrich feathers) and
to protect all song and insect-eating
birds.
BY the way do any of the Sisters
know whether it almost kills an os-
tritch to pluck its feathers. 1 have
heard it does. If it does ostrich feath-
ers should be taboo, also.
Now for A Golden Promise not
original. but delicious. SO. will pass
it on:-Cream together 1 cup sugar,
tablespoon butter, add 1 teaspoon va
nilla, eggs, liz cups corn flakes,
over which 2 scant teaspoons of bak-
ing powder have been sprinkled, stir
all together. Drop small teaspoons on
we'll creased tin far apart. Bake
in a moderate oven. When done re-
move at once from tin. Put away to
harden.
They are golden because of their
rich color; and promises because they
are easily broken.

Now nights are dark and mornings

Let him in his long watching know
That /, too, count the minutes slow
And light the lamp OF love for him.
The sight of death, the sleep forlorn.
The old inconsistencies vast and dumb
Amid these things SO bravely borne,
Let my long thoughts above him come.

So young he is so dear to me,
With ever-ready sympathy
And wistful eyes and cheerful smile.

Dear Social Corner Sisters spent
a very pleasant evening Saturday In
looking over The Bulletin pages of
March. The more I read the more
interested I became. 1 will say that
the Social Corner helps me very much
when am doubtful as to where l will
find certain recipes.
Mrs katsenjam- Your original re-
cipes were splendid and / intend to
save them for my recipe book. I am
looking forward for those original
crossings, too. I think original recipes
are the best in a great many ways
and you are more sure OF success If
you use them.
Biddy: Your dinner of odds and
ends was splendid. 1t Is a good thing
to be able to make a meal with. left
overs: and sometimes it makes a
change, too.
Wfltwyck: Your description of Lake
Mohonk interested me very much.
should like to visit the lake some time.
Aunt Sarah: I was very much In
terested in your letter telling about
your garden as I am very anxious to
have a garden. too. You had q nice
variety of plants in your garden. /
have had more to do with flower gar
dens than vegetable, but think would
rather try a vegetable garden.

about getting together to keep up the

One way Of cutting down the grain

too.

Dear Cornerites: My reason for not
playing cards is L do not enjoy them.
Like Uncle Watt Mason" anr his at
tempt to study grammar, Il cannot
make head nor taiI'' of any hut the
simplest games of cards. do not
think card playing in moderation is
wrong If you condemn cards because
they are used in gambling you should
refuse to ride behind a horse because
of horse racing and the gambling
which sometimes accompanies racing
The worst feature of modern card
playing is the expensive prizes some
times given. I think it wrong to give
expensive prizes for any game But
If it is right to give an inexpensive
prize for tiddlewinks at a church So
ciabfe why it is wrong to give a sim
liar prize for game of cards?
Too much time should not be given
to pleasure but people use other forms
of recreation immoderately. To my
thinking my friend who belonged to
six clubs, music, art, current events.
llxc&Sture and sewing, recreated just
as immoderately as though some of
them had been card clubs
feel that both those who do not
play, and those who do play. mod
erately should be given credit for be-
Ing conscientious.
