February of this year there arrived in
United States ports more than 49,,
100000. Eggs cost three cents to five
cents Pr dozen in China. They cost

for less than Ice per dozen by French,
English, German, Belgium and Ameri

SAP AND SALT

There is nothing we hate to give up
more than prejudice.
Hez Heck says; "a lot of folks seem
to run more to plmples than they do to
intellect"
This thing of getting things done by
pushing a button is making plain work
unpopular.
People who try to be comfortable
and succeed have solved all the prob
lem in life there is.
Suppose we say word in praise Of
people who try to be decent, but don't
get any credit for it,
Not quite so much perfume and a
few more clothes would make the men
folks feel better satisfied with woman
suffrage.
Most of the things you think you
know are only things told you by some
one who was told by somebody else
who heard it.--Bert Moses in the De-
troit Free Press.

much later date.
al Saw Three Ships A-Sailing," an
old English carol.
I'm Exce,sis Deo." a very old Eng
fish carol dating from the old Saxon
days. The chorus theme used in
this carol is to be found in the older
carols of most of the European ma
tions.
The perennial favored Holy
Night" will also be sung by the choir.
The musical setting of the COM
munion service is drawn from three
countries, Alfred Eyre. an English
composer OF the late nineteenth GEN.
