Something 10 Think About
ByF. A. UALKER

So here is where your sorrows take
root and overwhelm you with fear In
the season of rlpening fruit.
Year after year you have been care
lessly sowing and reaping only a hand
full. Time has flown by on silent
wings. You failed to take note of its
swift flight, and instead of giving at
tentioh to your W work, you red
died with the work of others.
You yielded to temptation, indul-
gence. idleness and made a frightful
picture on the face of the soil in.
trusted TO you to cultivate.
AS autumn you gaze on tho
scene with an o~verpress.ng sense Of
neglect and a ~sickening humility.
TIE sun and the showers were faith.
full to their trust; the soil was rich,
capable of bringing forth the choicest
fruits OF wealth and happiness.
Beside your forsaken garden is
your neighbours, radiant with flowers
and golden fruits. While he was doifsg
his duty. working faithfully at his
given task, and later giving work 20
others, you were f%althless, grumbling
and negligent, as Is evidenced by your
garden, filled now with worthless.
withered weeds. haunting and hooking
you in the evening of your given day.

"Since 1918 the growth of the clubs
in the provinces has been very steady
and encouraging, until today there are
342 woman's clubs established from
far-north Cagayan to southern Jolo'
'In the year 1921, at the convention
held in Manila, these clubs decided to
federate. and we now have the Ma
tlonal Federation of woman's Clubs
Of the Philippines. The federation.
holds an annual convention at which
delegates from the various woman's
clubs in the islands come to attend. 1t

the work In connection with the infant
mortality campaign. With the convene

viding for insular aid to all charitable
organizations desiring TO carry on per-
manent work In child-weifare work.
the interest of the women has become
more keen. Women's clubs are trying
their best to raise funds for their
work. The most progressive ones have
started to do work of their own ac-
cord, and already dispensaries and
health centers. have been established
in the bigger towns.
Besides these two activities, the
clubs take up the problem of civic bet.

Fairgrounds have been established

NoD-A-VILLE

NOD-A-VILIE
ITO THE quaint old town of Nod-a-
Vile,
Out there in the Shutdown West;
Just over the crest of Slumber Hill,
Where the evening rhades lie cool and
still,
And the birds have gone to rest
To a quaint old house on Quiet Street.
Deep shaded by Sleepy Tree,
While the signing breeze sings low and
sweet
My babies three-with me.
Dick-e-Dum marches with air sedate,
And Margy-ree-half-past two
Waddles along with a queer-toed gait,
Worried for fear that she may be late,
And the dark blot out the view.
But Charlotte May-brand-new you
She couldn't climb Slumber Hill
So h rides a knee the journey
through,
And the only comment she makes 10
"goo-goo,"
On the way to Nod-a-ville.
In the quaint old house they softly
o. creep
AS the sun sinks In the west;
And kneeling there In the silence deep
They whisper their 'lay me down to
Sleep
And in Gods strong arms rest.
o, Nod-a-ville! Through all the night
May angels watch DER thee:
And when the morning has dawned
clear, bright
Send back their faces rosy alight
Ny babies three-to me.

Two first prizes, for "Homeward Bound," and a still life, third for portrait of Dr. Mill Ter, the former head of the society; and honorable mention for "Harbor Haven," gave MT. Hochderffer an un- usual collection of ribbons, and won him the good wishes of all at the reception on the opening night, when the winners were announced.-Queens County (N. Y.) News.
