Away went the wild wind with
loud whirr. whirr while the two little
birds sat looking at each other and
wondering if it were all true.
The next day while they sat on

came dancing down about the tree.

ALBERTA
By MILDRED MARSHALL

a Iberia, meaning nobly bright,
= has its origin in the Teutonic Ian
guage. 1t is one of the names coming
from the nobility of which Aethel is
the root.
Acthclbryht was its first form.
though il was a masculine name and
was given to the first Christian king
OF England. The famous bishop of
Prague was called Adelhrecht and his
fame spread the use of the name
throughout a great part of Europe.
Italy received it and straightway
changed il to Alberto. II is from this
latter that the feminine forms, Al
berta and Alhcrtine. were formed. The
husband of the late Queen Victoria,
WHO bore the name Of Albert, brought
both the masculine and feminine into
great vogue in England. Indeed. it has
since been accepted as Il national
name.
But, like all names which have a
masculine and feminine equivalent,
Alberta has no really individual exis-
enCc. After all. she is merely a mas
cullne name with feminine terminus
ton. But unlike many of her con-
rcmporaries. such as Edwina and
Roberta. she is almost frivolously
feminine and is not regarded as a SUBJ
stitute name for the hoped-for son and
heir who was to have been called AL

Jade is Alherta's talismanic stone.

great prosperity. and freedom from

arm. or throat ON which il is worn.

is her lucky number.

DOES A COLD GLASS 20
CRACK WHEN HOT
WATER Is APPLIED?

THE fact that heat expands sub
l. stances while Geld contracts them
is responsible Tor the cracking Of glass
when the temperature is suddenly
changed. The application of hot water
To cold glass causes the tiny par
ticles of the glass nearest the water
to expand very rapidly, more 50 than
those on the opposite side of the
glass. The expanding particles tear
themselves away from those which
are not expanding and the crack re-
suits. Precisely tile opposite effect
is produced when cold water is applied
TO a hot glass. The particles nearest
the water CONTRACT and tear away
from those which are still expanded.

Because Of this unequal expansion,
it follows that the thicker a glass Is
The more likely it is 20 CRACK and,
for this reason, chemists and Others
who use hot liquids pour them into
very thin glass, where the particles
can all become heated at the same time.

Something TO

CoMMENDAfLE DESIRE
By F. Il. WALKER

A LITTLE girl sees doll, and in
"A stantly there comes yearning
in her heart to clasp the doll TO her
breast and call it her own.
She raises her delighted face TO her
mother and stretches out her chubby
hands in pleadings that cannot be de-
MED.
\ boy Graves knife, and he holds
20 his wish until he gets it gratified.
Then he proceeds boy-fashion To nick
things, which he has been forbidden
TO cut and finally gashes his finger.
AS the girl and the boy grow older
their desires undergo a radical change,
With accumulated experience and
knowledge. they seek more substantial
possessions, good opinions, or a par
ticular place in the world where they
may become conspicuous and power
ful.
And thus all through life their de-
sires grow, assume new forms, urge
them forward or backward, mold their
character for good or evil and shape
their destiny.
The desire to do good is the most
ennobling thought man or woman can
possibly have.
1t is the only desire that does not
warp the soul with selfishness or de
stroy faith.
TO build up images and to yearn
for things which can be of no perma-
nent use to us or to eur fellow beings.
is but waste of energy which ought
TO be put TO better use.
President Harding longs to bring
peace 10 the world.
Doctors and nurses desire TO heal
the sick and alleviate the pains Of the
suffering
There is a growing wish everywhere
among the enlightened to eliminate
the parasite by urging everybody TO
useful effort especially the young and
those inclined by reason of their
wealth TO waste their time in idleness.
What is your chief desire?
Is it something of selfish nature,
agreeable or pleasure bringing, or
something which will some day prove
lasting benefit and blessing to all
mankind?
There is one intense compelling eX-
pectation in the heart of every human
being which controls his or her life.
What is yours?
IF It is good. buckle on the armor
of faith. put Jealousy. selfishness and
fear behind you and make yourself
distinguished.

THE SQUARE DEAL

EOR good many thousand years
= leaders of thought and morals have
been trying 10 establish the square
deal on the face of this earth.
The Golden Rule is older than the
Scriptures. Efforts TO make men do
as they would he done by date back 10
Confucius.
Up to the last reports. none or these
efforts had altogether succeeded.
There is III cheating and lying and
stealing ald injurtice in the world.
The little boy growing up in a good
home believes everybody is honest and
kind. and only ;ffter he gets out in the
world is he bitterly dislllusioned.
And even after his years in school
or in college, he finds himself expect
ing to he fairly dealt with in business,
and is disappointed whea he finds that
this is not always TO be.
II would. we believe, he g. mistake TO
destroy the ideals of childhood. We
ought TO have ideals at so ne stage cf
our existence, and childhc vi is abe :
the only time when they Il not like \
to be shattered.
But when yOu start out to tictt the
world for your Hving. the sooner you
realize that yOu must nj times meet
with injustice and unfair dealing, the
less likely you viii be to cry out that
you failed because every mans hand
was against you.
The world has still long way 10
90 in it's journey toward civilization.
1t viii have many sethacks before the
end of the journey is reached.
Today if you find other men deal
ling unjustly with you. even though You
deal justly with them, do not bt
shocked or surprised.
There are such men in the WORLD
many of them. Treat them fairly. bG.
be prepared for different kind Of
treatment from them, and don't whine
if you receive 1t.
Be alert 10 read character. Pick ont
honest and straightforward men t.
deal with-particularly as employers.
Be ON your guard against cheats,
and men who would exploit you. They
are always inferior in intelligence to
men who do business honestly, and
therefore less likely TO he able TO be
Of service in advancing you.
Don't complain when you are unfair
ly dealt with Grit your teeth and en-
dure it. Find the right kind Of people
who are still abundant, and make
them your friends. and your company
and your business associates.
Il will be long hunt. but the re

DAY DREAMS

T LONG for the days of the barlow
knife.
And the sore toe tied with yarn:
For the ''mumhlepeg' and the Dos

In the shade Of the moss-grown barn.
l even yearn for stone bruised heel.
Or back burned red by the sun;
For the old-time zest for my couch
OF rest
had when the day was done.
l long for the days of the sight I'M
seen,'
And the peg tops spun with Irvine;
For my old-time place down at second
base
As one of the village mine"
even yearn for the finger bunged
Or the thumb with a ragged split;
Or the old-time lump on my bullying
brow
That showed where the baseball hit.
Hong for the days of the swimmin hole,
And the swish" of the old tish-line {;
For the "crockries." ''aggics," "glas-
sies' and
The "nealies" that once were mine.
/ even yearn for the blistered hands
That came from the old grub hoe;
For the appetite that came with night
In the days of long ago.
long for the days that are long, long
dead,
When my heart was free from care ;
For the sunny hours when my boyish
soul
Was as light as tile summer air.
But, thank the Lord, l am living yet,
And thank Him, too, that
Can sit at ease when the day is done
And dream Of the days gone by.
