Mr.. Heming tells an amusing little
incident to disproye the general be
lief that artists are temperamental,
ffissipated creatures who thrive on the
white lights. In the ancient days be-
fore prohibition Mr.. Heming was In
New York to invite American artists
to exhibit In the Canadian national ex-
.hibit In Toronto. Gardner Symons, the
well-known American artist, invited
Heming@ and Frederick Waugh, an
other leading artist, to dinner at the
National Arts club. Lets go down
and have a cocktail before lunch" said
Symons. g" never take anything

Waugh. Sy1nons laughed. That's

THE MAN WHO OWES NO MAN

<krLL ask no odds Of any man,
No favor from q friend;
Alone I'll work, alone I'll plan,
Alone attain the end.
TIL harvest only what I SOW,
The wealth of field or shelf:
I'll find my joy myself.
"TH ask no odds of anyone,
I'll steer my own canoe,
Do for myself w~hatever's done,
AS you must do for you.
TIL W no man for anything,
TIL live my life alone
Whatever fortune fate may bring,
My own shall be my own"
Yet. brother, you will see the bloom
That other mortals sowed,
Another's roses will perfume
The long and weary road
The very path you upward tread
In independent pride
With naughty and uplifted head,
Was made by men who died.
What steel your soul, what stone youl
heart,
What selfish folly yours,
You cannot live your life apart
The human bond endures.
You owe to others what you are,
Each lovely rose you see
And you must plant for years afar
The roses yet to be.

white clouds, in the swayfng of trees
and in the whisperings Of the winds
all bearing a message OF cheer and
encouragement.
How often do you raise your eyes
to the smiling blue, or pause to think
Of the bliss beyond, waiting for those
who shall overcome?
How often, instead Of packing away
your troubles, which no amount of
gr1eving can change, do you turn to
the great outdoors fors consolation,
seeking you at every turn of the road.
ON the submits Of the hills by the dim
pied streams and in the peaceful
wales?
All the kings horses and all the
kings men cannot bring you happiness
If you, Of yourself. refuse 10 go out
with open arms to meet it and press 1t
to your breast.
Mere words can never trace out hap
2iness, nor make its meaning clear ex-
cept to those who put forth a hand in
Gods name, and embrace 1t in faith as
their own.

NON'T brighten a child.

HoN'T brighten a child.
- The future of every city,
state and nation In the
world depends on the children If
today. In large measure the
ability and willingness Of our lit
tie folk to make the world a bet
ter and happier place in which
to live depends on whether they
are treated kindly, properly
reared and taught the essentials
Of a general education and in
stilled with a desire to be Of
service to their fellow men.
This is a thought which should
command the serious considera-
ton Of every parent, every teach
er, every minister and every 9TH
err individual who in any manner
exercises an influence on the
lives of our youths. To each one
who realizes that he Is doing his
full share to help rear the chill
dren as they should be there is
certain to come a feeling of sat-
fsfaction which must add to his
own happiness, not only because
he 10 helping to make the young
folk happy now and when they
become men and women. but also
because he will know that he is
contributing a great deal to the
happiness and welfare Of genera
lions to come.
II - exceedingly unfortunate,
therefore, u at any time one of
the little people liz frightened.
They should be taught to be
courageous and abhor fear. II III
q very serious mistake to tell
them of giants who eat children
Or to warn that the 'sbogey man

they are bad.
