BOOST

Boost your city, boost your friend;
Boost the lodge that you attend,
Boost the street on which you're dwell
ing,
Boost the goods that you are selling,
Boost the people round about you,
They can get along without you,
But success will quicker find them
If they know that you're behind them.
Boost for every forward movement,
Boost for every new improvement,
Boost the man for whom you labor,
Boost the stranger and the neighbor,
Cease to be chronic knocker,
Cease to be progress blocker,
If you'd make your city better,
Boost it to the final letter.

ORIGIN OF MOURNING COLOR

81 am glad to Sc people getting away
from OVERRIDING this black clothing so
much," says an undertaken of wide ex-
perience. 81 looked it up once and it's
lust the survival of an old Hebrew Gus
tom of dressing folks different to warn
their neighbors of the unclean presence of
death. Different colors were used, how
ever, by different old timers. On the gold
coast of Africa the relatives of the dead
wear red, exclusively and on the east coast
they wear white instead of black. The
good old bob-tail Morris of New Zealand
must have been the inventors of this taboo
stuff, though, for any one of them that
touched a corpse couldn't touch anything
with his hands for a year and had to eat
off the ground like the boys in pie-eat-
ing contest. It's lucky for us undertakers
that some at least of the oldtime taboo
has faded from the memory of the white
man."-Ex.

A PRAYER

Leave not veil before my eyes,
Tear from my mind the shield of lies,
And from my soul the web of sophistries;
Yea, though 1 sicken, shirk, and flee,
God, give me eyes to see.
Send me no song so honey-sweet
That l forget the harsher beat
Of life, the pulsing discords of the street;
Smite me with sorrow as spear
But give me ears to hear.
Grant me the will to payfor light,
For vision overtopping sight,
And dreams that are not of the passing
night
Yield, at what price Thou shalt demand
A heart to understand.

INDIA'S ANCIENT DEODAR TREES

The natives of the hill regions of India
consider the deodar tree almost sacred.
AS its name implies, it is the tree of the
gods, and around many of the picturesque
little temples one sees magnificent groves
of fine old doedars, perhaps 800 or 900
years old, trees that no one would dream
of cutting for they are considered as the
personal property of the gods. Even
should doedar fall down from old age,
no hillman would dare to use its timber
for his own private needs. Misfortune,
as hebelieves, would certainly result. If
a house were built of the sacred timber,
either the house would refuse to stand or
what is the more usual form of the
gods displeasure-the owners family
would fall victims to some terrible disease,
or his crops would fail to ripen. A hill
man who has had to pass through one of
these groves will carefully remove even
dry needles that have stuck to his feet for
fear that he may arouse the gods dis
pleasure by inadvertently removing some
of his property.-Ex.

MY CREED

Who asks not, the chambers are darkened,
Where his soul sits in silence alone.
Who gives not, his soul never hearkened,
To the love call of Zone unto Zone.
Who prays not, exists but he lives not,
A blot and discord is he.
Who asks not, receives not and gives not,
Were better drowned in the sea.
All! the asking, receiving and giving
Is the soul of the life we live.
All the beauty and sweetness of living
Is to Ask, to Receive and to Give.

HOW AND WHAT TO READ
CONTINUED from page y

quaint and playful humor of Addison and
Lamb; there is the splendid rhetoric of
DeQuincey and of Macauley, and the
splendid wood-painting of Ruskin; there
is the preaching of Carlyle. If we cannot
know all, we must choose our bent and
follow the lines we like best.
The essay can never be read in hurry,
nor by one who feels himself rushed The
great essayists wrote in the most leisurely
manner possible, very little at time,
and only when in precisely the right
mood. In the same way must they be
read alone. The women who delights in
these things will sit curled up in a great
easy chair, her head tipped against the
back, the light well shaded over her
shoulder. The man will, if he is smoker,
inevitably want his pipe. No modern
cigar will do, and the vulgarity of chew
ing is utterly inconsistent with taste for
reading essays. 1t is the refined, the
imaginative, and the dreamy who will
especially delight in this form of literature.

UNTO HIM THAT HATH SHALL
BE GIVEN

To him that hath shall be given,
And he that hath not shall lose:
For this is the law of the ages,
That we shall be what We choose.
Then choose we this day what thou
wouldest,
And see that thy choice be fair,
For the word rings down the ages,
That they shall have, who dare.
Then fear not to ask what thou
wouldest,
Nor fear but the law be true,
For to him that asks shall be given,
And he that asks not, shall rue.
For this is the law of the ages,
That no one shall lack in his need,
If he dare to command his purpose,
Nor falter in word nor deed.
Then know that the law will not fail
thee,
And see that thy purpose be true,
For thou shalt be what thou wouldest
And none shall compel but you.
For thus saith the voice of the ages,
That thou may'st be lord over all,
And they that seek all shall gain it,
And they that seek less shall fall.

This use Of newspaper space as Il

must and will serve rs a tremendous
object lesson as to means Of getting
things done by the people. 1t means
simply this: If community or an
individual wishes to accomplish some
thing which depends largely upon i'll
teresting and convincing large numbers
of people. such community or individual
must use the press. This was known
to many before. but never to so many
has the lesson l,een brought home with
such convincing force as it has In the
various campaigns that have been
features of the war as seen from the
home side.
If then. the pen''le call to the etli-
