THE CONTEST.

.NLD age complains when Winter
" reigns.
But youth runs out to play
And finds i'm storms thing that
warns
Its pulses all the way
1t is the contest so intense
With Winters angry elements.
The weak perspire beside the fire
And shiver with the cold:
The sturdy go to meet the snow
With hearts increasing bold
With hearts made stronger by the
gale,
Whatever arrows may assail.
The tmid groan, the timid moan,
When troubles cloud the sky:
The brave go out and do not doubt,
Unfriendly fate defy,
And find each contest bravely met
Makes each contestant Drawer yet.
When thunders roll before your goal
What will your answer be?
viii you go forth TO face the north
Or from the norther fee?
Does Winter drive you to your fire.
Or each new storm new strength
inspire?

And often took leave, but was 10th to
depart-Prior.
TlME is money To most of us, in
one way or another. Yet many
OF us forget To go homeland SO
waste a lot of somebody else's money,
In the guise of time.
Were you ever In this position? The
maid had gone out for Thursday after
noon, or else there was no maid. A
guest was coming at half-past six.
The dinner was partly prepared
thanks TO your desire TO be ready for
emergencies. At half-past five 10
would be time TO put the meat in the
oven, and at six the vegetables must
20 on. You must in the meantime
dress yourself, and perhaps put a child
to bed, or else help an older one to
dress. A neighbor called at half
past four. You looked thankfully at
the clock, realizing that che could not
stay long enough to harm your din
ner. But she stayed.
At five you began to be nervous,
thinking of the things yet to be done.
At half-past five, making some excuse
about hearing a knock at the kichen
door, you scurried out to the kitchen
and put in the meat. Then you sat in
agony, waiting for the caller to take
her departure, and when she did, about
six. yOu madly dashed down again to
whip the cream for the dessert and
mix the salad, and air the dining room,
and heat the soup, and set the table,

The Right Thing
at the Right Time
By MARY MARSHALL DUFFEE

! and put things to rights i'm the living
room, and light the lights and do the
dozen of last-minute things that ought
! to have been done in the last hour
/ not in the last minute.
/ Most of us have beea in some such
predicament, and, remembering this.
it behOoves us TO remember to 20
home before we have worn out orr
welcome.
This is just one of the occasions
when guest should make an early de-
parture. There are many others.
A caller on a sick person should al
ways make short call, unless by
staying for n longer, specified time,
she can relieve the nurse.
When guests are expected, a caller
should always take her departure
promptly. If unexpected callers ar
rive, the first Corners should 90 be-
fore many minutes have passed.
If there is illness in the house. a
caller should not keep the members
of the household very long. Even If
they are not bearing the duties of
nurse, they probably have many calls
on their time.
If your hostess is going out later in
the afternoon-if you have found ont
this to be the case in some chance
manner-you should not keep her in,
even if she protests that she is in no
hurry.
Put yourself in the place of the
hostess on all occasions when you
are wondering whether or not IL is
time to go home.

PUPPY AND THE FOWL

THE Barnyard Fowl lived very
comfortable with old Towser,
but when Jack Puppy came
there to live they found out they knew
nothing about dogs.
II thought all dogs were good" said
old Brown Hen, looking after her bit
of bread which Jack had stolen and
run off with. Il wish / could catch
him and give him sharp peck"
HE tipped over my dish of mush
this morning and then rolled In it,"
said Nine. Duck, with snap of her
big bill. HE could not eat that either,
and my little ones had no breakfast"
At last the ducks and hens could
stand it no longer and then went to
old Towser and told their troubles.
"You must help u.s." said old Brown
Hen. Il should think you would be
tired of having him snatch your food,
too. / saw him run off with a bone
you were eating the other day.
what is the matter with you, Tow
ser? You would have chased another
dog and shaken him.
'0h, Jack is young" said Towser.
don't mind him, and you know.
Mrs. Brown Hen. we dogs must have
our day: besides that. / was young
once myself and had, to sow my wild
oats, Just like Jack is sowing now"
1T Is plain we must take matters
INTO our own hands," said old Brown
Hen. "Towser will not help us. so we
better call a meeting and see what
can be done"
That afternoon under the currant
bushes at the end of the garden all
the hens and ducks and Mr.. Rooster
held meeting.
Jack Puppy ran all around the
oarnyard trying TO find them, and |
when at last they returned he ran at |
tnem barking and jumping. Make
the most of it, young fellow" said |
brown Hen. pecking at him as he ran |!

WHAT CHILDREN READ
DEOPLE would not worry so much
nhnmf Mhnt thn,- cnlI thn ..1nnhnrn

DEOPLE would not worry so mucl
L about what they call the '.moderI
child if they only stopped Il
think that fathers and mothers, un
cles and aunts, of every generation
had their doubts as TO the new genera
ton.
In fact, Adam and Eve were in all
probability the only proud parents il
all history who never said. children
did not do such things when we were
young"
The very latest discovery that has
been made about the little boys and
girls of America is that their taste
III reading is quite different from that
OF their elders at the same age.
1t appears that they are finding
rather dull some of the things that
appealed to the Youngsters Of former
days, and are demanding more excite
ment than is good for them.
1t is well, i'm thinking about such a
subject, always to remember that older
people have weakness for consider
ing any such change in taste as for the
worse.
That is the compliment that matur-
ity pays to itself
The great trouble is that we don't
remember what we really cared for
when we We're small.
Many of the things that we were
supposed to enjoy we didn't really like
until we grew up. Others that were
forced on us for our good were spoiled
for us forever.
Children have no sense of subtlety,
or irony. This is natural.
They read alice in Wonderland"
or "Gulllver's Travels" or 1.-THE Ara
bian Nights" for the straight story,
not for any secondary meaning that
is beyond them.
A clever American woman suggests
that the children, especially in big
family, should be encouraged to write
stories of wild adventure for each
other.
This is not so impossible or far
fetched as il seems.
A good example came to light re-
Gently in the case of the children of
Theodore Roosevelt.
That many-sided man was a child
among his sons and daughters until
the very last.
His letters to them, full of action
as they are. and illustrated by him.

HOW DO YOU SAY IT?

Common Errors in English and
How to Avoid Them
DIFFER WITH" "oIFFER FROM"

OETWEEN the proper use of the
- term differ from" and the proper
use of differ with" there is n
lear distinction, although it is for
;otten frequently, even by some writer's
and speakers who are careful in the
Use of words.
For a person to differ from another.
or for a thing to differ from another,
he or ii must be unlike, in appearance.
IN manner, or in some other character
istic, while to differ with a person
means to disagree with him in opin-
ion or belief. 1t follows. therefore.
hat while a thing may differ from
mother, 1t cannot differ with another.
since only thinking beings can have

ed by w. f. Lincoln, 1867. In 1869
o. b. Brown patented machine which
projected moving pictures" from a

1880. also produced a glass-plate ma
chine. NJ. Marcy, of the French in

and Lumiere, in 1893, invented the
"Cinematograph." The first real ma.

one Edward Hadley is supposed to
have the honor of being the first mo-
