SEEN ON THE SIDE
A Cherries HenYen.


If heaven had no birds nor flowers,
No singing streams co1y bowers
Where man might hide his face
And drink the perfumes OF the pines,
Tho sweetness Of the suckle vines,
Somehow, somehow II seems to me
That heaven would simply have to be
mighty cheerless place.
If heaven had babes to
And stick their fingers out at you
And laugh. and pull your hair
Were there no brides or bridal moons.
. Or lovers walks or mating Junes;
Were there no loves to grace the ways
OF heavens endless day of days,
Id rather not be there.
II heaven had music, why,
Id rather not attempt the sky.
Where no cheering tones.
No melodies to soothc the soul,
No chords majestic there to roll
10 rather stretch my humble bed
In silcn; ways. and lay my head
Upon its pile OF stones
But heaven. rs I see 1t, lies
Where brightest hues OF summer skies
Invite the soul to go;
That human heart that knows the birds.
That leaps at some fond lovers words,
That seeks the vines and haunts the flower,
And basks in LIES perpetual bowers
Knows. and it must be so!

Attention OF The Coun-

The Babies Today
In Morgan City The Test
Will Extend Over A Pc
Rod Of Two Days

The babies are in the limelight
good and strong today. To a large
extent everything else is being side
tracked for business that vitality
concerns them. Every baby and child
under the age of five is being weigh
ed and measured. In Morgan City,
two days have been set as necessary
to complete the work. When it is
finished records concerning every
child will be sent to Uncle Sam at
Washington and he will then be the
best informed parsonage regarding
baby records in the world. The test
beginning today is the elimination
of a movement to save the many
thousands Of babies who die every
year largely from neglect and misin-
formation.
The babies who have thus far re-
ported at the City Hall are a fine,
lively looking bunch of youngsters
seemingly fully alive to their i'm
portance and of a mind to make the
most out of a trip away from home.
They have all been remarkably
good, however, regardless of their
high spirits. Mrs. w. B. Reed, Par

ish Chairman of the work, stated that
the only objections to the proceed
ings, have come in every case so far,
from the older children-those near
the age limit. A rare case, in which
the younger are setting a commend
able example for the older. Much
doubt is being entertained by the la
dies however, as to the good effect
it will have.
Tho they we're long and short, fat
and thin, light and dark, they were
ALL pretty and sweet. The latter
verdict was mostly arrived at after
hearing expressions from all sides
from diplomatic onlookers.
The ladies who are doing the work
incidental to the test are working in
half day shifts" Nine of them at
each session. The detail work tn
connection with the records is ire
mendous and the ladies will not be
through when the test days are over.
All the cards necessary for the Gov
eminent report had not been receiv-

to be filled out from data, later.
But as has been typical Of any un-
dertaking tackled by the Woman's
Committee of the Council of Nation

with efficiency and goodwill that
is bound to secure the desired re-
suits.
