HENS LONG FOR EARLY OATS,

Dear Social Cornerites: Here I come again. after a long rest. As read the Social Corner page I saw Blanche had written about sprouting oats for hens in flower pots. Well, I planted lots of oats, this winter. but they had to enjoy tne cellar, as l planted them in large sized cheese box covers. Of course. I never would have any place for such large ornaments upstairs in my house. anyway. I fed lots of them as soon as they were three inches high. The hens really believe sang verse of song for every oat swallowed
 Well. l once selected a good name for myself in the Social Corner, but another by the same name came to life after two years and of course I had to select another name. I thought of three names and sent them in to the Editor, and he said which one he thought would be nice. We'll, now I am never called by that name, so I thought that is just the name for me, all right.
 As never know what it is to work as short as eight hours. I must make my letter short.

A TRIBUTE TO SAMANTHA'S
 DAUGHTER.

Dear Social Corner Friends: One more tribute to the memory of our . departed sisters is due Tirza Ann, or, perhaps better known as Samantha's s Daughter. Our first acquaintance with her was when she attended our first Social Corner gathering on "DiscoY- cry Day.
 When we heard of her death we were indeed grieved to think that one whose young life was so full of devotion and usefulness: so active in church and Sunday school and all good works, so helpful to all she came in contace with, should be so suIdenly called home. But the pure ad uplifting influence of her sweet life will be worthy mem
 ory to all her associates.
 I think Catspaw did not take the
 right view of that leitter in which Aurelia Purse just related her morn
 ing caller, and we can profit or not on
 others mistakes, and cnd a uoral-if we will.
 One suggestion in that letter to those who tarry at leave taking is to go when, you get started and don't stand about the door as that person did. Other peoples experiences can be in teresting or helpful or amusing to us, and that is what gives variety to our page. -N e1nd. 1oura felleF WAS interesting and proved your kindhearted hospi- ] tality.

THANKS FROM GREAT GRANDMA

Dear Social Corner Sisters; Having received many beautiful flowers and remembrances, will try to pen a few of my thoughts as l have enjoyed them,
 Wherever Gods works are, there He is. The perfect forms and lovely col ors representing life and beauty must come from the Infinite power who called them into existence. They can- not grow and give their fragrance to the air without the ever acting exist ence and power of the Infisite whose presence is declared to exist in all His works.
 What can be more sublime as we view them. The name of God, his wis dom, his power and goodness are made visible to the eye and show how impressive the love of God is for all mankind.
 Peace-I like your pen-name and would add Psalms one hundred anG twenty second, the seventh verse. Balsam F'ir-Thanks for arbutus 1 Lovingly to all. GREAT GRANDMA

ENJOYED THE SOCIAL CORNER.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: I have long been a reader of The Social Cor ner and enjoyed the letters so much that my friend, who is a member urg- ed me to write too. so one day l wrote and sent in one Of my favorite recipes and there came the question of a pen name. It was the month of June, so I took that for my name.
 How I watched for the paper. and then her to see if she would know mine. As she read along she said: Here is a-new one,' and before she finished reading she said: "Oh! I bet that is yours. for that recipe is like yours"
 I have been very much interested in how the members got their pen names, and hope some morerwiH write how they got theirs.
 l have a lot of trouble, lost two grown up sons very suddenly, so I can sympathize with those who have lost dear ones.
