Probably those boys who rocked that boat at
Viropa and caused the drowning of little girl,
and almost the drowning of woman, were only
amusing themselves with the frightened screams
OF the occupants of the boat, but no words can be
found to sufficiently condemn the awfulness Of
such an action No doubt the boys are full OF sor-
row for their terrible act and it would be safe to
hank ON the assurance that of them will ever
rock a boat again, or permit another to do SO in
their presence but there is also doubt but that
those boys Lad been told and knew the danger OF
rocking bot, and the knowledge was not enough
to restrain them from what they thought fun "

ence of good home, cares and worries disappear
and the whole family gathers strength and cour-
age for the new day. If man must leave his
home to find comfort, cheer and ease of an even
ing, it indicates only too plainly that something
is wrong in the place which he has helped found
as a haven for rest and place OF relaxation from
tribulations and worry. If mothers believe the
society of their husbands and children is unable
to afford them relief and pleasure the chances
are ten to one that the home spirit has not been
cultivated. And if boys and girls cannot find
encouragement, guidance and direction in the
circle of their homes, but are forced to seek it
elsewhere their action is sad commentary on
the home-making ability of their parents.
The true and ideal home is source of supply
for the children. Every young child instinctively
believes that its home can supply it with every
thing it wants. Who has not seen child ask,
with confident faith, for gifts far beyond the
purchasing ability of its parents? The child
knows nothing of the economic limitations of its
parents 1t believes that qualification will follow
the request.
Since this is so in a material sense, how i'm
portant it is for parents to make their homes an
adequate and never failing source for moral and
spiritual values. They may not be able to buy all
the material things child wants, but there is no
limitation to the moral qualities which the par
ents supply. They may enrich the child's
life with qualities far more enduring than the
playthings it Graves, and in so doing provide that
intangible atmosphere of sanctity and nobility
which characterizes the abode of high minded
men and women.
Costly furnishings and expensive labor saw
ing devices do not make home. You may have
all of these, and still have provided yourself and
family only with collection of rooms. Perhaps
our home life has lost its charm and potency be-
cause we think too much of its material aspects
and too little of its spiritual furnishings. Unless
we keep the atmosphere of the home charged
with fundamental virtues and exemplify them in
our lives, fathers, mothers and children will tire
Of the environment and Vainly seek elsewhere
for those qualities which be found only in one
place-a we'll conducted home.
1t may be trite to say that there's no place
like home but the history of the race has proved
Iconclusively that no one can find substitute
for home and be satisfied and happy. Home is
the guardian of morals. the day spring of our
success, the abiding place of our national
strength.

What is Home !?

Publicists are bewailing the decadence of fam
lily life. Many believe that the home no longer is
the center of the family life, the focal point of
its activities and interests. They say other in
terests and attractions have usurped the place
of home
All of which makes one wonder what home
really is. Primarily it is shrine of love and
affection, the abiding place of the family,
founded by parents to house them and their off
spring and dedicated to the perpetuation of the
tenderest affections and the highest virtues If
love does not dwell in a family, actuatng the
lives of the parents and influencing the careers
of the children, it lacks the very foundation upon
which home life is built.
The absence of this element may account
measurably for the lack of interest which some
fathers and mothers take in their homes. and
which naturally is shared by the children. If the
whole family is not bound together by ties of
mutual love, there is no home, and none of tn,
kindly sentiments and exalted virtues of true
family life is to be found among its members.
Home should be the scene Of enjoyment in
the truest sense Not pleasure that comes from
the sense only but qualification of the heart over
participation in the cultural values afforded by
art, literature, music, all of which have been
placed in the hands of the most humble by our
public libraries art galleries, and musical organ
iZations. If these are not emphasized in the
home, the parents need not be surprised if their
children incline toward the vulgar and coarse and
are averse toward the finer things of life We
have lost much of our ability to provide our
homes with pleasant diversions and depend al
most entirely upon outside resources to supply
this necessary element of our domestic life.
Home is a refuge from troubles, worries and
anxeties. 1t is the safe port to which the father
should steer serenely and hopefully after try
ing day in the shop, store or office. 1t is the
shelter to which the boys and girls may come

Famous Old Recipe
for Cough Syrup
Easily and cheaply made at home,
but it beats them all for
quick results.

Thousands of housewives have found
that they can save two-t thirds of the
money usually spent for cough prepare
tions, by using the well-known old recipe
for making cough syrup at home. 1t
is simple and cheap but it has no equal
for prompt results. 1t takes right hold
of cough and gives immediate relief,
usually stopping an ordinary cough in
"a hours or less.
Get pig ounces of Pinex from any
druggist, pour 1t into pint bottle and
add plain granulated sugar syrup to
make a full pint. If you prefer, use
clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup,
instead of sugar syrup. Either way, it
tastes good, keeps perfectly. and lasts
q family q long time.
It's truly astonishing how quickly it
acts, penetrating through every air
passage of the throat and lungs-loos-
ems and raises the phlegm, soothes and
heals the membranes, and gradually but
surely the annoying throat tickle and
dreaded cough disappear entirely. Nothing
better for bronchitis, spasmodic Group,
hoarseness or bronchial asthma
Pinex is a special and highly concen-
trated compound of genuine Norway
pine extract, known the world over for
its healing effect on the membranes.

After Dinner Trick $
No. 6O-The Magic Paper Bands


Three long strips of newspaper ars
Pinned or glued SO that they form three
bands, or paper hoops.
The first is cut along the center, and
quite naturally falls apart into two
hoops of equal size.
But when the second band is cut IL
comes out in one large band, twice the
size of the others.
The third, when cut, falls apart in
two. but these two are linked together.
In forming the bands the first was
pinned to form a circle. The second
was given a half twist before pinning
while the third was given a complete
twist. That accounts for the curious
results.
If desired, fourth band may be
used, with a twist and a half. It
comes out a single band, tied in knot.
