snatch out the letterhead and carbon
copy, crush them up in one hand and
throw them in the basket.
If 1 had known her better I should
have liked to call to her attention
her wanton waste of office supplies,
to remind her that she was really
stealing. OF course she would have
resented that if I had told her; prob

THE SCHOOL CHILD
BY EMILE HOFFMAN

Mothers who exercise great care
in the diet of children during the
first decade of life are inclined to
think the child may eat anything
after the tenth year, but at no time
does the diet of the growing boy or
girl need more careful watching
than during the high school period.
1t is at this time when great physi-
cal changes are taking place that
the appetite is apt to become fin
icky."
The wise mother will make special
efforts to serve attractive foods at
this period foods that will stimu-
late the appetite. This does not
mean that the taste of the boy or
girl should be catered to but rather
that nutritious foods should be
served in forms that appeal to the
appetite, which is no great task for
the mother.
Rich pastries and highly favored
foods, which furnish no nourishment
but merely tempt the appetite, should
be tabooed from the diet of grow
ing children, and the high school
student is in this class.
Healthy boys or girls of high
school age develop surprising appe-
tites. They require considerably
more food than the average adult, a
condition mothers should consider
these young people should be con-
centrated and not very much liquid
should be given with meals.
Children of this age prefer to buy
their lunches, and every high school
of any size has it's lunch room where
experienced dietitians serve the right
kind of food, but there are usually

TO HIM THAT HATH

Youth took counsel of Old Aage, say
Ing,
How cruel are the words OF the
Good Book
ITO him that hath shall be given; and
to him that hath not,
THAT which he hath shall also be
taken away"
"Ah, but it is not as you think"
Came the answer.
For to him that hath courage to go
forward
ITO face the firing line of life,
ITO him shall be given that which
he seeks;
and to him that hath no backbone
to do and to dare,
Even that which he hath shall be
taken from him
And he shall become as a weakling.
And to him that hath love for his
fellowmen,
More love shall come unto him.
And to him that hath no love but
for himself,
"Of that which he hath she shall be
bereft
And he shall hate even himself.
ITO him that hath heart and SYM
pathy
For the sorrowful and suffering and
the loWly,
ITO him shall be given the gladness
"Ihat comes with such spirit.
And he that feels naught,
THAT which he does feel will fade
away
And he shall become as hard as
stone.
To him that hath respect for those
who toll for him,
"That respect shall be accorded to
him.
But he who tramples on those who
help him
Gwen that aid which he gets shall
be as nothing.
ITO him that hath communion with
Nature,
More and more OF what life means
shall be his blessing.
"And he who thinks himself all I'M
portant
And sees not the blade Of grass.
THAT poy of beauty will also be lost
to him,
And he shall be loser indeed.
I'm truth, to him that hath something
to give
"OF HIMSELF,
more must come to him.

world began.
