have meatless and wheatless meals
once or twice every week. The
soldiers must be fed. In place of
meat we must eat fish and chicken,
In place of wheat we must eat corn.

and oatmeal bread.
ALI those things will answer our
purpose, but the soldier boys need
the meat and wheat to answer
their purpose.
The soldiers must be strong and
healthy and If we eat all the food
that heats and helps build up their
bodies, the soldiers cannot do what
they are meant to do. The soldiers
are fighting for you and. for me

KINDNESS

One cold, bleak January night as
Daniel Webster was hurrying home
from a friends house he saw be-
fore him the bent figure of WON
an who was trying to keep a thin
shawl about her. Again and again
the cruel wind would try to tear it
from her frail body. But she still
kept on her way. Thinking that
no one but beggar or one in
great need would be out this kind
Of night he hurried to catch up
with her and give her a few coins.
But suddenly she disappeared.
Then to- his establishment she STOP

iosity, he stepped behind tree so
when she looked down the street It
was empty to all appearances. Then
STOPPING she picked up the very
board that he had placed from his
door to the gate and hurried away
with it. Daniel followed at a dis
lance so she could not see him. She
entered the poorest part of the
town and stopped before a tumbled
down house. Through an incur
tanned window could be seen a
small boy of about six years, polk
ing at some dying embers in an
old-fashioned crate. Daniel then
hurried home. The next morning
the widow and son were very sur
prised and thankful to find a load
of wood at their door. But they
never found out the name Of the
giver. But Daniels friends motto
ed that he was short of pocket
money for the next few weeks

Boys and girls on Western Can.

Education and encouragement by
the government and local associa-

conceded that people who have a
scientific knowledge of the work
they do, are happier and take a
deeper interest, and get bigger re.

those who go about it in a happy
go-luck, without-reason fashion.
The wise course, then, is to give
people the sort of education that
Will best fit them for their partic.
ular work. This applies to farm
ers, perhaps more than to any 9TH

ment appreciates this fact and is
doing much to make it's farmers

more cOntented with farm life.
