ARE YOU SATISFIED
WITH YOUR HOME

The following article was writ
ten by a sweet girl of Brandon,
who is attending school in another
city. 1t is splendid one, and we
hope 10 receive others from our
readers, who are interested IN
maklcu he Woman's Page of the
Brandon News the very best.
Did YOU ever realize what lit
tie touch of paint and a bit OF
cretonne would do for your home
often we flet, 20 why can't
have enough mCaey to make my
home beautiful" Still we do not
try to make it beautiful without
money. We seem to consider that
quite impossible. So it was with
Ellen Howard. She had married
John when they were both very
young and had lived five years
with that very complaint In her
heart. O, no; she never complained
t2 John; but she never went to
Jane Graves home that it was MOI
uppermost i, her mind. Jane had
married : rich man.
One day, Ellen was glancing
listlessly over the pages of a maya
zine. Her eyes we've caught by the
pictures of porch. What was so
Fascinating about that porch? The
furniture was not expensive look
ing; There were only a swing, a
few chairs, and table. She g2Zed
at it longingly, then glanced "a
round to see why her porch dld not
look that way-Ah! She sat up
with a jerk! Her porch could
look that way without his know
ing of it beforehand. There
She sat down to make her
plans. She would give the furnl-
lure a coat or two Of Jap-a-
Lac. Yes; then she would make
some soft, fluffy pillows with gay
colcred cretonne slips, and would
make covers for the backs of chairs
and swing and a pad for the
swing. of the same material. Sun
there was something lacking.
What was ito, she would make
porch boxes in which should bloom
yerbena; the three old flower pots,
too. should have a coat OF paint
for they were dingy looking. In
them she would plant ferns and
there should be a neat stand for
each of them. On the table, which
should have a cretonne cover to
match chairs and swing, she
would place a vase of roses. That
would complete the beauty of her
porch. O, she would really have
the porch she had longed for; And
could not her whole home be beau
titled in the same manner? 10 De
sure one could have an attrac-
tive home with out being. rich.
Is your hcme as attractive as
YOU wish it? Probably you, toe,
should do bit of planning just
as Ellen did.

CHILDREN

The first thing to do is to get
the child interested in carrying
out a regular health routine. emil
dren have no CONCERN whatever
with health for the mere sake OF
health, All children are ambltl-
Gus. All children love power. ana
the health idea should put tortn
to them not by a threat of being
sick but rather with promise that
they will be stronger and better
able to do everything other chill
drcn do if they follow the. simple
rules that are given. 1t is quite
permissible to think of other re-
wards such as special treats ana
permission to have some coveted
thing or to 20 to some desired
place. There are innumerable
things that every child wants to
do. Sometimes it seems easier to
say "no" than Eyes" but if the
"yes" can be made depended up
on the child's taking an interest
in his own well-being. then 1t is a
perfectly permissible reward to
US.
The rules that ought to be hung
up in the room of every boy and
girl and that ought to be followed
regularly. day by day, are as fol-
lows:
/. Brush the teeth night and
morning.
2. Wash the hands before each
meal and after going to the toilet.
See that the finger nails are kept
clean.
3. Use clean handkerchief ev-
cry day. Never lend it to anyone
or borrow any one else's.
a. Use your own pencil.
5. Never put into your mouth
anything that has been handled by
anyone else.
6. Stand erect.
7. Breathe deeply.
Eat slowly.
8. Sleep at least eight hours ey-
cry night !.
10. See that you have bowel
movement every day.

The Little Town o. Pickett

by lip Dcdlty.
You can talk about you cities
With their 'lectric lights and
such: I.
There's little town called Pickett
Which for size it amt so much,
But if ever you chance to 90 there
I'm sure you will agree
That the little town O Pickett
Is good enough for me.
We don't go in much for society.
Amt never very strong ON style,
But the latch string hangs on the
outside;
Come right in, sir, and stay a
while;
We try to make strangers feel well
come,
Just as our fathers taught it
should be;
That's why the little town o Puck
EFT
Is good enough for me.
Our mail it comes from D'Lo-
Gets to Pickett just one time
each day;
Burl Purvis, he is our postmaster,
Most accommodating one you'll
say;
Fact is, we all try to help one
another,
And that's one of the reasons
you see
Why the little town O. Pickett
Is good enough for me.
Bob Warren, he runs the sawmill,
Carroll Kennedy has the general
store.
Carr Durham keeps up our tin
Lzzies,
Makes 'em run just as goo as
before;
Doe Holyfield attends to all sick
Elder White, he argues Scripture
some free,
And they'll all tell the world if you
ask them,
That Puckett is good enough for
me.
Now when Gabriel blows his
trumphet
On that resurrection day,
And we stand before st. Peter,
Hearing what he has to say,
| will allow that if there amt room
for me
Among the angel band that be.
Just let me go back to Pickett,
It's plenty good for me.
-D'LO Herald.

Hiram'S Camps

Walker Noble of Augusta. arrived
at tho High Twelve Camps Saturday
afternoon to take charge of the Boys,
Department. Of the. High Twelve Camp
at Rowe Pold. which is known as
Young Iirams Camp.
Mr. Noble s a student at Spring
field College. Springfield, Mas, hay-
ing finished his third year. and has
put in several sessions of special ath-
letic and physical instruction at the
Y NJ G. A. Summer School at Silver
Bay, Lake George, N. Y. From the
way he has tackled his job, I appears
that a very wonderful program Will
be developed and that the boys when
leaving Camp will surely have in
stilled in their hearts and souls the
ideals and principles which the Camp
stands for.
Mr. Noble is native of Ma ne and
an all-round fellow and a true sport
