HOW TO KEEP A GIRL FROM
LEAVING HOME.

One of the ways to keep a girl from
leaving home when she gets mad with
her father and mother is to be very
polite and accommodating to her.
Don't talk back to the dear heart
sick girl, and show your authority,
if YOU do she will grow re-
bellious. Take her in the kitchen and
show her how to make an angel cake,
and incidentally tell her that she is
mothers sweet angel cake maker.
Learn TO "shOot the bull to her, and
promise her a birthday party, and talk
with her of her list of friends she wants
to attend it. Don't ever resort to
rough stuff as the girls of this period
of the world s history won't stand for
it. Take her TO church with you, and
sit with her among the young people of
the church. If you take her to a show
buy her gum, ice cream cones and
chocolate candy. 1t is better to spend
a few dimes on her than to have to
spend a few dollars, and then, after
all the trouble is done.
Hospitality"

He has found a way to bring us up to

The worlds about to turn to Tuning

And to save us we must hear the Cos

We are a lot of sinful hyprOerits of

The mother she knew, but she would
not tell her darling little boy.
She knew if he lived and tasted life
that his cup would ill with joy.
He must learn some things that troubled
his soul, and reconcile at best
His noblest nature with the fitness of
things, and that would be his test.
So the years went by, the boy was a

He had learned a deal about life and its

And later when sterner years came

The boy now a man had reached great
