YOUR HEELS.
BY ROGER W. BABsON.

IFS funny how seemingly little
things in our surroundings affect
our efficiency.
Whether you feel happy and sue
cessful. or down-and-out and a
failure. may depend on so small a
thing as the heel Of a shoe.

anthropist. He isn't so very rich
but he does moro good with a few
hundred dollars than many do with
millions.

feet at soc per-
When he finds a poor unfortunate,
he takes the man to the nearest
cobbler's shop and has full new
heels put on his shoes.
Ten minutes later the down-and-
outer is facing the world once more.
He is alone again, but his heels
are square and he stands a little
straighter.
He throws back his shoulders and
sets his jaw, not knowing just why
he does il, and strides off a better
man.
BY Strengthening those heels. our
friend has done more to help a
drifter than If he had given him a
hundred dollars.
It's the little things-our heels,
our shoes. our clothes, the pictures
in our houses. the condition of the
tools we work with. and the express
sion worn by those we meet-that
make our moods
II you want to try an experiment
along this line, watch your wife the
day she buys that new hat.

MAY

Along comes May. the gift OF
spring. with budding trees
and birds that sing; IL won't
be very long before old summer
will appear once more.
The bulIfrog soon will air
his throat and hand us out a
sour note, while bugs and
flies and worms and feas will
bring US added pleasantries-
The bold mosquito will be seen
to light and sting us on the
bean, and thence arise and
buzz away to come again another
day 'r..r
All this will be and more
beside-but while in May we still
abide, we're dwelling in the
season best. that's far ahead
Of all the rest.

IN THE LIGHT OF TO-DAY
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE.

There's a dulcet delight looking
back on the years
Where the soft breasted slope of
the mountain Is mellow,
When you were an April of sunshine
and tears
And I was a boisterous March of
a fellow! ...
But now that we're standing atop
OF the hill.
With an everyday duty to do with
a will.
1t is idle to look back too much on
the way:
Let US live in the light of today.
There's a shudder in searching the
future too far.
Till the year turns a-cold in the
drifts of December
And the sun dwindles down to a
pin-pointed star
And the ashes OF age gray the last
dying ember.
But now we are here in the clamor
of noon
And the blaze OF the day is bless
ing and boon,
And the haze Of horizons shall fall
as IL may;
Let us live in the light of today.

Texas Congressman, headed by
Representative Hudspeth. barbecued
meat out at Chevy Chase Lake the
other night. and a rousing time was
had by all. Barbecues are new
things in these parts. and about a
thousand folks, ranging in point OF
Importance from Champ Clark down
to several messenger boys at the
Capitol. went out to chew beef and
drink boiling hot coffee.
The greatest sight of the barbe-
cue was Representative Hudspeth
who was master Of ceremonies. For
merIy a cowboy, he dressed the part
of his old job when, pitchfork In
hand, he presided over the trenches
in which the steer was roasted. He
wore corduroy pants. high-heeled
boots and sombrero hat just like
a regular COW man Of the old days
