tillage but which can be made
to pay a profitable dividend cut
ting out the mature timber and
protecting the Young growth
from injury by fire and other
causes.
What can be done to make the
woodlot pay is shown by the fact
that in 1921 the farm woodlots
OF Maryland, where advanced
forestry methods have been adop-
ted, showed an average income
Of $2.75 per acre and each tract
was cut over in such a manner
that a new crop will follow the
old.

and made you espouse them?
Has it made you public spirit
ed? Has it made you a brother
TO the weak?
Have you learned how to make
friends and keep them?
Do You. know; what it is to be
friend yourself?
Can You look an honest man or
a pure woman in the eye?
Do you see anything to love in
a little child?
Will lonely dog follow you
in the street?
Can you be highminded and
happy in the meanest drudgeries
of life?
Do you think washing dishes

Are you good for anything

Can you see ANYTHING in the

Can you look into the sky at

A few days ago when l was in
the hairdrssser's shop a young
" imam came in with a very
att. Give little girl everyone
admired
The mother. with apparently
no thought for the big eyes fixed
upon her or the shell-like ears
taking in all she said, related
the incident: ''We moved from
where we were living when my
little girl began to go to school
and it was too far for her to 60
alone to the school she had atten-
ded. But they wouldn't give
me transfer so l told my hus-
band was going to send her to
the other school anyway and tell
them she had never been to school
before. And of course I warned
her to tell the teacher that she
had never been to school.
That night when l had gone
out she went to my sister and
said. "Tante, l always said the
truth before.
oh! foolish mother" 1
thought, how blind you are"
The story stayed with me after l
left the shop and it ranked.
Then there came to me a
picture of the day many years
ago when my brother, a young
country physician, had driven
fourteen miles in a severe snow
storm while MS little three year
old son wrapped up like an
Esquimau cuddle in his arms, be-
cause in the morning when their
was no i'll dication of storm, he
h ad given his promise to take
the little fellow with him when
he made this call. And now des-
