TO MAKE THE WORLD BETTER

The Christian Education Movement
of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, has an allotment Of one mil
lion dollars in its budget us an aid
fund to educate boys and girls for
Christian life service.
Other churches have shown South
ern MetEodists the way and revealed
the priceless value of help to worthy
men and women whose lives have been
ennobled for high service for their
fellow men. The Presbyterian church
es have hundreds of thousands of dol
lars in their loan funds transformed
each year into brain power, spiritual
energy and moral fiber, the money re-
turning regularly into the treasury to
fare forth again through the years on
its mission of light and liberation.
The Methodist Episcopal Church
has made loans to 23,952 of her stu
dents, amounting to more than ST.
500,453 To date more than 100000
has been returned, and these returns
are coming back at the rate of $4,000
per year.

chambering and wantonness. Give
your head the heart to spend it on
lad O. parts like Geordie Howe, you
would have two rewards no man could
take from you. One would be the hon

for knowledge you had satisfied, and
the second would be this; Another,

with auld John Knox that each scholar
is something added to the riches Of

no more wholesome or more popular thing than to sweep out of the de- partments at Washington not grad ually, but with all the promptness possible, every loafer and stacker, and require the employees remaining to give value received for their sal aries. The search for loafers and Slackers should of course not be con- fined to Washington, but extended to every bureau office throughout the country where there is room for sus- picion that similar conditions prevail 1t will require little less than an earthquake to shake the barnacles loose, but such a shake-up is abso- lutely necessary. The people of this country have grown weary of that sort of Officialism which expends it's energies not in trying to render better service to the public, but in es- tablishing laws and practices making it certain that the people are going to be imposed upon by payroll para sites who regard labor of any kind as curse to be as little endured as possible.

A ChlLD's LAUGHTER

All the bells of heaven may ring, All the birds of heaven may sing, All the wells on earth may spring, All the winds on earth may bring
 All sweet sounds together; Sweeter far than all things heard, Hand of harper, tons of bird, Yelling waters's winsome word,
 Wind in war wan weather. One thing yet there is, that none Hearing ere it's chime be done Knows not we'll the sweetest one Heard of man beneath the sun,
 Hoped in heaven hereafter; Safe and strong and loud and light, Very sound of very light Heard from moring's rosiest height When the soul of all delight
 Fills a child's clear laughter. Golden bells of welcome rolled Never forth such notes, nor told Hours so blithe in tones so bold, AS the radiant mouth of gold
 Here that rings forth heaven. If the golden-crested wren Were a nightingale-why, then, Something seen and heard of men Might be half as sweet as when
 Laughs child of seven.

THE RETURN TRACK

From many competent sources in widely separated sections comes the opinion that the United States has now definitely entered upon it's re- turn to normal conditions. The aver age business man has come to see that continuance of wartime pros perity, with it's attendant circum- stances of credit inflation high wages, high prices, reckless spend ing and public and private waste, is impossible. He has come to see also that the black-pessimism of few months ago is unjustified by any intelligent estimate of the economic situation.

THINGS WE THINK
Things Others Think and What We
 Think of the Things Others Think.

It takes lots of hard cash to play soft on soft girl.
 When marriage is failure, the children suffer most in the crash.
 It takes a pretty public-spirited man to run for office these days.
 We never heard of a weather man winning prize in a guessing contest.
 When a man sasy he is in need of rest, why does all the rest of the gang laugh?
 We are more likely to favor new fangled ideas and reforms if they work our way.
 When man gets so deep in love that he cant get out, he drags some poor girl in with him.
 The undertaken is about the only business man who gives complete sat isfaction to users of his goods.
 Of course the worn occasionally turns, but nobody ever pays any at tention to him when he does.
 Love is a wonderful thing but it does few things so wonderful as to unite a hundred-pound man with a two-hundred-fifty- pound wife.
 About the only safeguard against saying things that one shouldn't is to stay where there is no one to say them to. Solitude, blessed are thy Tecompenses.
 When you get so you can let your wife rub her feet along your spinal column in the middle of winter with out making any complaint, you can rest assured that you have reached that state of proficiency known as a model husband.

nature of the Washington proposals,
suggested a preliminary conference,
which the dominion Premiers might at
tend on their way home from the lmperl-
