THE FEDERATED SUNDAY
SCHOOL

Easter Sunday could not have
been more perfect had it been
made to order. The boys and
girls were there, also the bigger
boys and girls, and 19l scored
Oh the class records.
The Easter offerings from the
classes was voted to the Near
East Relief and amounted to $24.
Apparently the boys were all
at work for their classes and came
out in full force on Easter with
76 and the girls had u present.
The closing exercises were es-
pecially pleasing as the various
classes took some specially pre-
pared part on the program with Il
song, or recitation or memory
verses. The Future Of Vashon
class had not made any prepara-
ton for a part on the program,
but couldn't sit and listen with
out wanting to do their share, so
an impromptu selection Of Il song
was made and IA young men sang
He Leadeth Me.
The test papers on the lessons
of the past quarter are a credit
to the scholars who wrote and
will soon be ready to return to
the owners with the grades.
With the large attendance of
Easter the proposed addition OF
two rooms is becoming more nee
essary each week. Let all the
classes work to help the building
fund and push the project to a
finish.
We are now open for business,
and will be pleased to serve all

GRAINS DEFICIENT IN LIME
Material for Manufacture Of EGO
Shells 10 Lacking In Food
Given to Fowls.

Fowls need more lime (calcium)
than Is ordinarily found in their food.
Most grains and some other foods are
deficient In lime, and neither the hen
nor the duck can eat enough bulky
food to make good shells during tho
heavy laying period. The lime in
oyster shells or ground bone will sup
ply this need. 1t Is also important to
provide a regular supply Of vegetable
foods rich In lime.
