Swiss NeQIiaees.

- Some Of the new dotted Swiss neg
,ligees are made on tailored lines, with
no trimming but Irish crochet buttons
and loops of cord to 60 over them.
They have half length sleeves and are
made with the waist line shirred In on
cords. These. Of course, wash easily.
Perhaps more dainty are the Swiss
negligees made with binding Of col
ored washable satin ribbon around
sleeves and collar, and with perhaps a
satin sash run through loops under
the arms, or string sash Of the
Swiss, ending in little satin balls.

by reports from state organizations,

talks" on such topice as "Organiza-
ton work." "Use of a Speakers Bu-
reau" and political Publicity"

It's raining bitter tears today,
But soon the clouds will pass away
And out of skies serenely blue
The sun will shine on me and you,
Oh heart that now with care is sad
Be brave and wait the mornings glad
Behind the clouds of black and gray
That hover low, the sunbeams stay
And soon they shall come dancing
out
To scatter smiles of joy about;
Oh heart that now with fear doth
beat
Be brave and wait the mornings
sweet
Beyond the gloom now beauty stays,
Beyond the grief are happy days,
Behind the heavy hours of care
Await the joys that we shall share
And as the sun shall follow rain
So peace shall find our hearts again.
Oh dark the day and sharp the dread
And swiftly fall the tears we shed,
Yet out of skies serenely blue
The sun shall shine on me and you
And we shall tread, when care is DER
The happy, laughing ways once more.

Work and Worry.

The more you work the less you
worry, the more you hump the less
you fret; and so get busy in hurry,
for industry's the one best bet. |
have observed that when Pm busy
Pm pleased with everything in view
and l have often said to Lizzie, "Pm
glad | have my chores to do" My
minds engaged with things that mat
ter, with hoeing spuds and moving
grass | have no time for idle chat
ter of evils that may come to pass.
But when no honest tasks engage me,
my mind is filled with gloomy bunk {;
the rumors from abroad enrage me,
and things at home seem pretty
punk Our statesmen deal in useless
clamor, our diplomats are hayseed
boobs; so rear up and ply my ham
mer until | bust my inner tubes. |
talk of bogies with my nei yhbors,
and thrash old straw we've thrashed
before; and all we need is useful la
bors to keep our heads from getting
sore. For idleness leads on to brood
ing, and brooding's bad for mortal
men; it brings them dreams and
schemes deluding, and often lands
them in the pen. I'd rather be
among the boosters than train with
grouchy also-rans ;and when Pm busy
herding roosters | have no time for
foolish plans.

anyway?
No attention on his wedding day,
On Christmas day, the bills-and
a green necktie.
On Thanksgiving, the task of carv-
ing the turkey-and of paying fort.
On the day you were born they
put him out on the. front porch,
Saying good-by to her Boy, pray
ing over his service flag, knitting him
helmets and sweaters, fondling his
old coat, etc, etc.
But how many have thought of
writing sentimental songs about
Father,
Or to picture him in his charac-
teristic attitude,
With his hands in his pockets, dig
cling up the coin, paying the bills,
writing checks for Mothers war char
tiles,
Or fighting to potato bugs in his
war garden?
Nobody pictures Father with his
face against the window pane,
Gazing out through tears at "the
star that shines on HIM."
And on the day you are married
more bills for Father!
He can't even have nervous
headache, like Mother!
What does Father get out of it all
anyway?
And yet,
Every afternoon when l go for my
walk, just before dinner,
| meet him-hundreds of him
trudging YEARLY home from the
days long drudgery,
A little bent, little worried, lit
tie haggard looking,
But with that bright, set, daunt
less look in his eyes
Which comes from long years Of
standing between the Wolf
And family of hearty, wild
young, irresponsible things
That's Father!
And you'll only find out how brave
and unselfsh, and worried, anc
heart-hungry and altogether wonder
full he is,
When he lies under the waving
grass in his first real REST since you
were born!
Are you going to wear flower il
your buttonhole on Fathers Day?
Well, | just guess yes!

Last Sundey AFTERNOON me and Le-

Watkinses frunt steps waiting for
Mary Watkins to come home from
Sundey skool, when who come up but
Pud Simpkinses sissy cuzzin Persey
with a pink coronation in his button
hole, Leroy Shooster saying, well,
look whose heer with a flower in
their button hole, o mother, squert
the hose on me.
o deah, pass the pickles, | feel ill,

Watts the matter, dident you ever

peshily cabbidges, sed Leroy Shoes

sourcastic, and Leroy Shooster sed
The rose is red, the violets blue, you
chase me and then Ill chase you, 0
deah, who would of thunk it.

Are you going to wear flower IN
your buttonhole-on June First?
That's Fathers Day.
And of course you know what
Father will do
When you kiss him and rumple up
his hair, and show him the flower.
He'll say ooh, piffle pr words
to that effect,
And then he'll hurry out into the
garden, ostensibly to see how the
radishes are doing,
But in reality to hide his bushes
and his pleased surprise, and to swal-
low the little lump in his throat, and
preserve his dignity.
Father-bless him !-isn't USED
to being noticed.
He never HAS been noticed much
Since that bright day, years ago
when he was hustled into his we'd
ding coat and cab, half-dazed, and
driven to the church, and told tc
"brace up"-and then forgotten.
While everybody looked at MOTH
Err, and whispered about her, anc
cried over her, and exclaimed, ooh
ISN'T she lovely"
And admired decorations, and
stared at the bridesmaids through &
transparent medium composed Of
Fathers head and body
That day, when he was no more i'm
portant in the scheme of things
Than the Kaiser at the Peace Con
ference
He hasen't been noticed much since
then and he thinks he hasn't cared
Poor, tired, hustling, over-worked
heart-hungry thing,
Yearning to be "fuSsed over"
And growing and pretending no
to like it when he is fused over!
Now Mother-oh, that's different
All during the war she had song
written about her, and had her pic
lures on all the front covers of thu
magazines
Horrible, aged libels of her, | con
fess-but still HER picture,
Or kissing his sons photograph
or fondling his old coat.
Father hasn't the privilege of do
ing such things
Father can only swallow and grun
and look stern and brave,
And preserve his DIGNITY!
What does Father get out of it all

Chautauqua AS a
Community Asset

Greeneville people enter today up
on their annual Chautauqua week
seven days of coed music, inspiring
and authoritative lectures, clean
wholesome fun and the best in dra-
matte crt. There is no man or Wom-
an in the community who can afford
to ignore the Chautauqua, any more
than he can neglect the schools OF
librcries or the churches.
Ever since its inception the Chau-
tauqua has been the ally of the COM
munity forces workin.; for civic bet
terment. Noted men and women
gladly go on this summer work to put
before the people their particular bits
Of knowledge, or inspiration, or cheer,
helping to make this country better
place in which to live. 1t is ismply
impossible for any person to attend
4 session of Chautauqua without hav-
ing something in his mind and heart
that glows and shines and makes him
a better citizen than he was before.
Philosophical men-the big men
of Greeneville-make this community
project possible by pledging them
selves to sell tickets and assist in ev-
cry way possible. They give their
time and energy to the work, not be-
cause they obtain any profit for them
selves, but for the sake of the com
munity. 1t is important that they
receive the cooperation of the peo-
ple, so that their labors will not be
wasted or the Chautauqua lost to
Greeneville.
Get behind these men, then, and
boost. If you have never attended
a Chautauqua, come out and see for
Yourself what it is, If you appro-
ciate a musical number or a lecture,
let your applause show it. Musicians
and lecturers are human after all, and
can judge the impression they are
making only by the response from
the other side Of the footligkt7.
Get the "Chautauuua habit" 1t
DAYS dividends in making better citi-
zens; in building civic spirit; in help
ing> toward solidarity of the best
ideals and purposes. 1t is your COM
enterprise. Boost for it.

Children of the City Street
[By Augusta Kortrecht.l ]


Ye children of the city street,
Who run to me with laughing cry,
Who run to me as I pass by,
And pluck my dress with courage
fleet,
Then hang your heads, abashed and
shy;
Ye children of the swarming way,
Whose world is dark and pinched
and gray
My heart beats quicker when you
smile,
And walk with me a little while.
Pale blossoms, choked 'twixt bier
and stone,
You reach to me as I pass by,
You reach to me, I know not
why,
Who neither BARN nor flower have
known;
For you I'd pillage Gods blue sky
The perfumed air, the golden
sun,
The myriad stars-ay, every one
I'd give to you, ye bitter sweet,
Who bloom and wither In the
street.
Oh, children of the cruel street.
So helpless and ashamed am I,
So weak to answer to your cry,
Tho bread I bring. or drink, or
meat,
I bring no light from Gods blue
sky;
Ye children of the swarming way,
Whose life is starved and gloomy
gray,
You stab me when you love and
smile
And walk with me a little while.
