would be good idea to impress upon
the boys and girls in this neighbor-
hood the advantage Of doing likewise.
They are taught English and spelling
and composition, all Of which is ne
cessary and important. But why not,
instead of having them write SO many
compositions, have them write letters
too. Give them examples of good
business letters. and teach them how
to write interesting personal letters.
The teacher could put a business
letter on the black board, and then
ask for letters in answer to it. And IT
would not be long before we would
have in this community citizenship
composed of good letter writers.
When the boys and girls now in
school get out into the business world
where they will have occasion to
write many letters OF a business
nature, what could be more valuable
to them than lessons along this line
given them in the course Of their
regular school studies?

HOME BUILDING

The home building and home buy
ing instinct is so real a part of life
that it comes poisoning out every
spring. The birds are about to build
their homes again and everywhere. in
city, town and countryside the ma
tive desire for those of US who make
the human kingdom what it is for o
place of permanent abode. Back
from Southern isles members of the
feathery tribes are coming to re-es-
tablish themselves or are in process OF
re-establishing themselves in the COM
Portable little holes in trees or else
where which have come to be regard
ed as homes. Mans finer sensibilities
crave for the shelter Of home-an
owned home-which, Of course. is
mans place.
The real estate men are telling US
more that the time for building is
here. Those Of us who have dreamed
dreams along this line do not have to
wait on the realty men to tell US, for
dreams of home always awaken fresh
with the spring. Yet we commend the
realty men for their thoughtfulness,
since every home they persuade
man to build means that much more
towards the general prosperity Of the
community.
We believe the man who has de-
layed building a home for the past
two or three years is going to find
this spring the ideal time to do so.
He is sorry now, Of course, that he
did not build before the war. But
there is an equal chance that three
years from now he may be sorry he
didn't build in 1921. In face of pre-
sent-day prices and from what we can
read and hear about building opera-
ions throughout the land, we really
and truly believe that the man who
builds his home this year will be doing
q very wise thing.

years ago they stopped advertising
and tried to live on their reputation.
It only took few years for them to
see that the soap men who were ad-
vertising were putting them out Of
business, and they started advertising
again before it was too late. There
is only one way to advertise-and
that is reguarlly and systematically.

lay away your horn
Within a week there's not soul

THE CAFETERIA.

We stand with trays and wait
our turns, a long, long line of
hungry guys, while appetites
within us yearn for Hubbard
squash and custard pies. Before
US there are many jays who fool
and fiddle, which is wrong; and
so we wait and wave our trays
and wish the bunch would move
along. One graybeard can't
make up his mind between roast
pork and shredded veal, and
while he doubts the mob behind
must all the pangs of hunger
feel. One woman stops, a row
to raise, because the soup is
halfway cold; and while she
jaws we clasp our trays and feel
ourselves grow frail and old.
We all must wait until our turn,
in vain are protests and appeals,
though while we're waiting we
could earn the price of fourteen
useful meals. 1t is a modern
way to feed, and modern things,
we know, are best; old ways, old
times, are gone to seed, old
restaurants are but jest. We
used to journey home at noon,
before old ways were proven
frauds, and there devour the
wholesome prune, surrounded
by our household gods. And
then we'd have little snooze,
to rest our bones so tired and
sore, and, having slept, put on
our shoes, and go downtown to
work some more. But we've
forsaken old-time ways, from
ancient things afar we roam;
and now we stand and hug our
travs, and wait until the cows
come home.
