Start the Day Right.

Start your day right Bury the
hatchet of the night before. Leave all
your grouches in the bedroom and
come out into the dawn of new day
with a smile. What matter If some
one has annoyed you the night before?
That day has passed with every pleas
ure and annoyance. Today is only
started, and no one knows what will
happen, good or bad, so II Is well to
be prepared for the best. Too many
prepare for the worst, look for it and
get it. Smiles are the least expensive
of all joys of life, and the most up
building. SO smile whenever you can.

Greds Of happy, healthy children.
Al the beginning of the war the
buildings in which these Riddles now
live and play and study were barracks
for French boys training to be sol
diers. Today these boys-those who
are left of them-are veterans. These
barracks are good modern buildings,
and they are set amid beautiful seen
cry. There are several of these groups
of barracks scattered throughout
France. and all of them have been
homeless children.
AT one of the barrack-nurseries
there are more than 800 children.
Some are babies of a few days old,
and the oldest Is not over ten years.
Most of these children are orphans.
Some few of them have mothers who
are working in fields and factories to
help France win the war.
And these little folks are receiving
the first intelligent care Of their lives
Skilled American doctors are In
charge of the kitchens, and expert.
enced teachers are instructing those
old enough to attend the barrack-
school. The older girls and boys are
being taught useful trades as well as
the usual classroom lessons, and with
II all these children are learning the
JOY in healthy play.
France laid upon us a sacred service
In this care of its children. And how
noble has been the response OF our
American Red Cross!
