o1'o feel SO downcast.
Won't you tell me- Mr. Sugar BOWL"
Yes, Mr.. Salt Cellar, l will. I have
always been sweet, and sweet will al
ways be. / may become scarce in
many ways, but sweet surely will al
ways be. Yes sweetness is my good
point In fact it is about my only
point"
That's good of you Mr.. Sugar
Bowl, to be so willing. 1 know that
you are famous for being sweet. /
wish | could be sweet too"
"Ah, Mr.. Salt Cellar, you may not
be sweet, but you are very, very fine.
You give taste to things. You give
things a flavor. That's splendid. With
out you, think of all the soups and
meats and vegetables which would be
fiat. Think of that, Mr.. Salt Cellar"
Yes, it is true" said Mr.. Salt Gel
lar, u do try to add in my simple
way"
ITS fine way" said Mr.. Sugar
Bowl. Il think to be the salt cellar is
very fine indeed and to be the salt in
it is still finer. But then who ever
heard of a salt cellar without salt?
Never-on dining room table-and
the salt cellars waiting to be bought
in the shops don't amount to anything
until they are filed with salt. Isn't

Pray tell me, for I would like so much
to hear
II will tell you at once" said Mr.
Sugar Bowl, sweetly.
DO" urged Mr.. Salt Cellar.
There was time, back some
months ago. that there was lots and
lots of sugar And there is still
great. great deal of sugar But feel
a little sad to think how often I am
half empty-and once, Mr.. Salt Cellar

pounds of sugar, when it used to be
bought in ten-pound and twenty-five
pound packages anyway
eyes, it does seem pity that the
sugar bowl has such sorrow in life"
you don't feel happy?" asked Mr..
Salt Cellar in surprise. 81 never knew
the sugar bowl to feel unhappy be-
fore"
81 only told you of my sorrow first"
said Mr.. Sugar Bowl. II didn't finish
telling you my story when l said it
was pity. I only told you of my sor-
row first, so as to tell you of my joy
later on
"Oh, Mr.. Sugar Bowl, how interest
ing you are. l am so glad we are
friends. Pray tell me your joy. That
would be better than anything. For
though / am salt cellar and not a
sugar bowl life interests me very
much I"
The sugar bowl smiled in a sweet
fashion, and Mr.. Sugar Bowl said: at
has been good for folks to have partly
empty sugar bowls. They have learned
how to be unselfish and how to sacri-
fee They have learned that they
aren't the only ones in the world to be
considered---that there are very many
brave people they must share with.
And so they haven't eaten sugar as
they used to eat it. They have gone
without to help others.
"Ah it has done me good to see the
way they have given me up to such a
large extent-and you know they do
find me sweet and they do like me.

but they've known there were harder

 The morning of July 1 was ideally beautiful; the sky was cloudless and the air balmy; peace seemed to reign; great, quiet palms lowered here and there above the low jungle; it was an oriental picture of a peaceful valley; there was feeling that we had se- cretly invaded the Holy Land.
