THE GARDEN INVISIBLE

SINCE the first memorable day in
~ which you ventured forth with a
fluttering consciousness of your Won
derful capabilities, to show the old
world that ii could never hope to
make permanent progress without
your help, you have, let it be said,
with due allowances, been digging,
planting. raking and watering in the
garden invisible.
And this is your garden, your very
own.
Everybody In this storm-troubled
sphere has one, so you are no excep-
ton. The sunbeams play hide and
seek. and the storms beat at regular
intervals, as the gods will. And
strange to say, you carry this garden
with you wherever you go.
Yours Is not coward soul, yet II
lacks courage to take your friends in
to this particular garden and show
them the result of Jour achievements.
You are little abashed at the nox-
ious plants that spring up in the
night, and often left standing 10
gather strength to crowd out the good
and the beautiful.
Failing in this you begin to fail In
yourself.

Something TO Think About
By F. A. DALKER

So here is where your sorrows take
root and overwhelm you with fear in
the season Of ripening 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 it's
swift flight, and instead of giving at
tention to your own work, you ned
died with the work of others.
You yielded to temptation, indul-
gence. idleness and made frightful
picture on the face of the soil in.
trusted to you to cultivate.
As autumn comes you gaze on the
scene with an Overpress.ng sense of
neglect and sickening humility.
The 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 doing
his duty. working faithfully at his
given task, and later giving work to
others. you were faithless. 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.

ITO THE quaint old town Of Nod-a-
L Vile,
Out there in the Shutdown West;
Just over the crest of Slumber Hill,
Where the evening chades 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 seda.e,
And Margy-ree-half-past two
Waddles along with a queertOed gait,
Worried for fear that she may be late,
And the dark blot out the view.
But Charlotte May-brand-new you
know
She couldn't climb Slumber Hill
So she rides knee the journey
through,
And the only comment she makes Is
"gOo-gOO,"
On the way TO NOd-a-Ville.
In the quaint old house they softly
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

KEEP BRAKES IN ORDER

A T THE approach TO every danger
- Gus turn Of u state rOaC Is sign
which reads:
GO SLOW.
The automobiles who has keen
sense and good brakes heeds the warn
Ing. He gets around the turn with
out anything happening to him.
The speed maniac, or the man whose
brakes are out of order, keeps right
on And we usually read Of one or
both in the accident columns of the
newspapers, sooner or later.
The road we all must take is pretty
well marked with warnings. although
II takes experience to read some of
them.
If we have the brake called will
power, and keep 1t in trim, we have
nothing to fear from the dangerous
places.
IL our judgment Is bad and our will
power likely to give way we never get
where we are going, except in very
badly damaged condition.
There is no occasion for such great
hurry that the warning signs must be
Over-run.
On the road TO wealth, and especial
ly the road to pleasure, the warnings
are very abundant.
Yet thousands and thousands Of
people run past them every day, with
the usual disastrous results.
There is little enough time in the
average life. We must all work rap
idly if we are to get a good lifetime's
work accomplished in the working
years that are allotted us.
But we can always slow down at the
risky corner. provided we keep our
will power In condition, and use the
Judgment that ought to be a part Of
our makeup.
The too much play" turn In the
road is more dangerous thar the too
much work" corner, but 1t Is well to
slow up at both of them.
Then the "Overindulgence" and "late
hour" spots call for almost halt.
Read all the signs and observe them.
1t is delightful to speed along the
road and feel that we shall get where
We are going in jig time.

What is needed in France to save her babies, and
what it slowly is getting is an educated public
opinion initiative and lasting leadership. The
world probably never saw work like unto that
which is being done today in this devastated land
1t is true that work Of the kind is being
attempted in other lands which war has hit and
perhaps they are DOH as well elsewhere they
are doing here. l don't know. but here the work
is before ones eyes. It's scope and its significance
stand in clear relief
Much is done here for children outside of the
immediate field of what like to call life saving"
There are kndergartens, there is manual training
instruction, aud there are amusements There is
directing % the feet of childhood into the paths
Of q right moral and sanitary life. One looks sees
it, and feels that this is working committee which
makes American part Of its name of action.
At this writing there are in France about 100
visiting American working girls. They have come
over here guests of the American committee TO
see what is being done. They will carry back a
picture of a new life coming amid scenes of DESC
lation that only four years ago were scenes of
death.
Something has been said of the library work Of
the American committee. 1t has established cir
cuating libraries In the villages from which the
work is conducted as centers. French peasants in
these regions who had few or no books today have
books to their liking at their command and their
commands are frequent. l like the story told by
Miss Jessie Carson, director of the library depart
menI, Oh Ine Olu pedSint VINO under the evening
lamp in his partially rebuilt house was reading to
his wife while she was knitting. She became so
interested that without being seen she stopped the
clock. The old man looked up from time to time
only TO know that 1t was not getting late and SD
he kept on till the end of the story. Then she
told him, and he said "tant mieux, did not want
TO go to bed before finishing that good story"
There will be libraries I'm the various centers
in the districts in which the American committee
has been working. The committee has given
money in considerable sums to certain of the
towns to be used to complete the present library
equipment. Young French women are being trained
in the United States is librarians. 1t ought to be
truism that reading under virtually all conditions
should be directed. In France provision is being
made for such proper direction.
Mothers of France In the stricken districts today
have their meeting places and their clubs the old
and the young together are getting the things Of
which they knew little before and Of which
today, they beginning 10 realize the social and
physica. benefits.

Fake Claim OF John Shell.

The following from the Journal
of the American Medical Associ-
alton of July 29th, 1922, disposes
very effectively of the fake claim
in which John Shell, of Kentucky
is being used on the picture films
as Kentucky's oldest citizen. The
claim has been made that at the
time of his death he was 135
years of age:
To the Editor:-Fakes die
hard, especially a fake which a
veracious press is interested in
keeping alive Ilexposed the John
Shell "the oldest man in the
world" fake, in a magazine arti-
Gle, in the New York Sun two
years ago. l showed them,
through the census records, that
Shell was less than 100. Accord
ing to these records, which ] OBJ
tanned through the courtesy of
Hon. S. L. Rogers, director of
the census, Shells age was given
in 1860 as 81. In 1870 his age
was 48. In 1880, So; in 1890, &c.
In 1900, his age was 78, his birth
day being given as May1822. l
visited him in November, 1919.
At that time / tried to verify the
age, and saw his oldest son, his
great-grandson, his father-in-
law, who was his nearest neigh
Dor and knew him for more than
fifty years. his lawyer of thirty
years, an ex-judge who stopped
at Shells house in the early
eighties. a physician who treated
him the preceding winter, and
the present circuit judge. All
agreed that Shell was about 100.
His son and great-grandson said
he was less than 100. The de-
tails of the scheme, by which the
exploiters of the old man made
