Something to Think About
ByF. A. UALKER
Bu F. A. DALKER

These are the salt of the earth,
whose saving substance may redeem
the idolaters.
You will find them among the faith
full, the charitable, and big-hearted,
working earnestly for the betterment
of mankind, unmindful of riches, for
getful of everything else except the
life in which gold loses it's value in the
august presence of character and di-
vine possibility.
Are we among these faithful ones,
or are we towards?
Do we tremble In terror at the
monstrous god of wealth, it's pomp and
splendor and power, or do we, like the
faithful, consider 1t merely myth of
time, doomed to banishment with the
oncoming dawn of eternity?

these braid-bound, tell in brief the
tailored trend. Departing slightly
from the severe man-tailored suits,
are fascinating models introducing
plated incidentals. That is, the cloth
is knife-plaited and then inset in a
strictly tailored way. Fine tucks also
add variety to tailleur treatments,
these being Incorporated into the max
ing of the coat and skirt by means of
long strips, the tucks running horizon
tally.
Midsummer suit interest is directed
largely toward f1annels. Unusual color
is expressed in these, such as madonna
blue, titan, sand and lanvin green.
The fact that most of the flannel suits
are unlined, is special recommenda-
ton. Three types are developed in
the colorful flannel suit namely: sleeve
less costume, consisting of Jacket and
skirt: the three-quarter length coat
and skirt, and the short Jacket model

spirit Of the moment, even our para
soils, our hats, our scarves, not to
mention our frocks and wraps yield to
this super-vosue for prints and plaids.
Perhaps we Americans have not as
yet SO thoroughly abandoned our
selves to the destinations of the print
and plaid craze as have the French,
for in Paris couturiers are particu-
larly featuring printed and plaided
capes, wraps and coats. For these,
cotton stuffs splashed with color are
as popular as silk. Indeed cretonnes
combined with solid colored satins,
preferably black, also with white wash
silks are quite the rage.
Worthy exponents of the print and
plaid craze are the hat and parasol,
likewise the frock above pictured
herewith. All over the crown Of the
larger hat spreads an expanse Of silk
printed in vivid oriental designs. The
parasol takes up the theme and covers
itself with match print adding touch

BIG BROTHER

MY brothers bigger, lots, than me.

Although he's big, the way he plays
With me, at least on rainy days.
He's eight and am only five,
And he can swim, and almost dive,
And do lot of other things
That can't do, with water-wings.
But he and I we romp and run
And have an awful lot of fun.
I'm little, but it's all the same,
AS long as he can pick the game.
My brothers bigger, big and strong
And yet we always get along,
AS long as will try to do
The things that brother wants me to.
When there is no one else around
To play with. then he digs the ground
And builds me castles big and grand.
AS long as | will bring the sand
And horse Is something else we play
A lot of times, most ev'ry day.

He does If will be the hors9

BETTER THAN GOLD

FOR ages 1t has been the custom
of the larger proportion of earth
iings to bow to the yellow god of gold
and worship it, overlooking In their In
sane idolatry the wondrous, enduring
riches that lie at their feet, disregard
ed and trodden down.
Children come into the world with
shining eyes and laughter on their
lips. They are as blithesome as birds
In the springtime until they are taught
by their parents to look reverently
upon the cold face of the god Of mann
mon.
Then comes a change In their speech
and department. The little rich child
is instructed to look with disfavor up
on the little poor child, so sharp line
of distinction is drawn between them
and each goes his or her way, un-
friendly towards each other.
A bitterness springs up in their
hearts. AS the years come and go, 1t
grows to pride, disrespect and hate.
Then follow the oft-repeated tales of
history strife, war. bloodshed, tears
and sorrowings-tales that have been
told over and over with rancor since
the creation of man.
The happiness which the children
knew is crushed to death beneath the
ponderous weight of gold. The care
free laughter which they brought with
them has flown away beyond their
reach, and they have become hard
faced and sordid, like the rest of us,
thinking and dreaming mostly of
earthly wealth and power.
There are some noble spirits, how
ever, who scornfully turn their backs
upon the false god, refusing to bow
down to 1t or admit its supremacy.
Beverly banner., 1924-07-25

Cream, egg or rice may be added. or
1t may be served clear with croutons.
For the child who carries lunch
a sandwich or two, one for real nour-
ishment and the other for a sweet,
with a bit Of seasonable fruit, will
make good meal and one easy to
prepare on busy morning.
Many child has been taught to like
tea or coffee by having the milk
warmed by either of those beverages.
This Is most pernicious habit to form.
Milk may be warmed with hot water
or heated milk may be given the child
If hot drink Is desirable, but tea
or coffee in any form should never be
allowed. Weak tea or coffee Is more
harmful than well-prepared concoc-
tion, some of our dietitians tell us, as
the weak solution sets up a fermenta-
tion, causing sour stomach and other
digestive disorders. The safe thing is to
leave such beverages for older people
who ought to be able to withstand such
indulgence, If i'll effects result from
their use.

one, as the proportion of meat TO bone
Is greater. After all the meat Is re-

a stalk or two of celery, with an onion
and bit of carrot, covered with cold
water and simmered for several hours.
