MOTHER.

In memory of my darling mother,
who passed away one year ago DC
tober p, 1922
Gone, dear mother, gone forever,
How we miss your smiling face;
But you left us to remember
None on earth can take your place.
You have left this earth of sorrow
And are free from pain and harm;
Now rest in peace and comfort in the
Blessed Savior's arm.
The days are sad without you,
And nothing seems just right;
A face we dearly loved is gone,
A heart so kind and bright,
But there is some one who will linger
Around the spot where you are laid
Who will come and scatter flowers
On the grace that Christ has made.

PHYSICAL TRAINING
 GIVES FIRM HANDS
Basketssll' Hoakey' Baseball Riding and Swimming Arc Conducive to
 staunch Frames.

Chester. Pa, April 1s.-widespread
 participation in athletics by girls is developing powerful fingers and firm hand grips. according to records com piled by the department of psychol- ogy and physical education at Dar- lington seminary a. school for girls here.
 Measures of muscular power taken on . recording instrument known as a dynamometer." said Prof. Frank Paxson Bye. director, of the school, "have disclosed marked .dcveiopm ent in the hand grips of virtually all Darlington students. Under system of compulsory athletics our girls have added from three to 20 kilograms of hand strength.
 Modern girls do not feel sense of loss with the departure of delicate hands. On the contrary, they, view this development as a psrt~of tho modern athletic program to provide them with strong, glowing bodies and alert mentalities.
 Similar development in muscular effort is noted by tests for the arms. back and legs. Basketball, hockey, baseball, riding and swimming are conclusive to this general growth of power. However. a firm, strong grip from the hand is frequently accepted as an indication of a stauncn frame and good mentality. It is indicative of proper coordination between mind and muscles"

AMERICANS LURED
 BY CHEAP LIVING
Mark Is Relatively Worthless in Germany in Exchange for Dollar

ccblenz, April l3.-rhe cheap Iiv.
 ing in this part of the Rhine coun- try continues to attract many Amer
 jeans abroad. many of whom came
 here originally 10 visit the American occupation zone.
 The occupied territories all along the Rhine enjoy the advantage of having prices regulated. in manner not possible in unoccupied Germany, where Americans and other strangers sometimes complain they are over- charged, or else compelled to pay higher prices than Germans. The living is cheap because of the rela- tive worthlessness of the mark when exchanged for the dollar or the pound sterling.
 How 1t works out for the German is another matter. What is cheap to the foreigner is dear to him.
 In the case of automobile drivers, the American may use a taxi for a day. and the entire bill will not be more than three or four dollars, out of which sum the driver gets the equivalent of '25 cents.
 In other words. the average daily pay of the skilled workman is 5000 to 4,00o marks. This also applies to railway workers of all classes.
 When it is noted that mans shirt costs 15,000 to 10000 marks, and a pair of shoes 30.000 to 60.000 marks, and both articles of second grade quality. 1t may be inferred how high the depreciated mark has put the cost of living for the German.
 One of these skilled laborers. now driving an autombileefor hire, was an infantry captain during the war. Aft CT the war. he worked for the Brit ish army of occupation, and by great good luck made some money when the reduced British forces began sell ing off supplies He accumulated a capital in marks the equivalent of s10,0o0.
 With this sum he decided to buy a Farm and take his wife and children 70 th0 country. .He bought a 300- acre farm near Coblenz and went to work. His surplus he invested jn 'arm equipment, horses. stock and ,eeds.
 By the summer of 1920 he had a inc harvest, but the diminished | value of the mark cut his crop and and values in two. This process con- inued until he failed.
 He sold most of his land and is now obliged to work for few thousand marks a day, with the mark still de- in value and prices going higher. He and his family now eat black bread and wear rags.

PATIENCE NEEDED
 ID FIND LODGINGS
Apartments Prove to Be Scarce
 in French Capital

Paris April iss--An American woman would have a wonderful time orsaninng her home in Paris. and en- Joy every moment spent in arranging her apartment. provided she were en- dowed with sense of humor and never lost her patience.
 Tho first thing Is 10 find your apart ment. Somo Americans have spent years trying to solve this problem, but without success. There are virtually no unfurnished apartments. The wa, stopped new building, and today req estate agencies follow policy of lcas- ing all the unfurnished apartments they can find. of furnishing them. and then renting them as furnished abodes. Another policy which dasif- es the hopes Of seekers of unfurnished flats is that of giving leases on apart ments provided the lessor will pnr- chase all the furniture they contain, and at very high prices. When the agile agencies, whose organization is superb, uncover a vacant flat they hasten to stick in bed. bureau. a carpet and few chairs and then gravely announce that flat seekers can have their prize If they pay cash for the exquisite furnishings"
 If You Only Know How
 But in spite of the foregoing an American woman came back to Paris few weeks ago. after an absence of several years, and found an unfur- nished apartment at the end of three days. Which demonstrates that If you know how to SO about things in Paris, and see the right people, things can be accomplished in France as in other lands. It is knowing the psy- chology of the people you have to deal with, and realizing that courtesy and patience ever bring their reward.
 Then began the struggle to furnish the apartment, and here again quick results were obtained by going about 1t the right way. The lease itself is an amazing document, full of techni- cal details and conditions. Tn addi- ton to the rent there are the extras like hot water. heating, collection of garbage, fees for the porter, etc. Fur thermore. there is the tax paid the government on each window, and the lease must be officially registered at an extra charge. No proprietor in Paris today will do anything in the way of repairs, so the new occupant had to find painters, decorators, men to clean and wash the floors, anA women to wash the windows. She supplied her own electric fixtures; she had the electric battery in the kitchen removed from the wall in conformity with new regulations; she had all ex- posed wires covered with moulding to prevent fire, and she tipped every man

and woman who did anything at all: Then there came the. carpet layers and the curtain hangers. the plumbsrs and the carpenters. each contributing something to organization and happi- ness. tftf
 But with all that, 1t is hne fun set ting up homo life in Paris. All you have to do is to find your flat. and store up an. inexhaustible supply of patience.
