I've read of you-Gloria Gordon
I've followed your story each day
And I've read that familiar saying
ITS the woman who has to pay"
You lie; you are selfish and stealthy.
Your desires are clothes-nothing more
And the time that you waste with your
husband
Is to you all terrible bore,
Don't you ever think of the future?
When you're old you will wish you were
young
While the others have climbed up the
ladder Of time.
Your foot's on the bottom-most rung
|, too, was like you-Mrs. Gordon.
But | woke up in time-thank the Lord.
| centered my life once on roadsters.
But I'm satisfied now with a Ford
A baby is Gods greatest blessing
Don't YOU ever long for that gift?
If you did-poor foolish young flapper-
1t might teach you lesson in thrift
Poor flapper-your youth is short-lyed
Motherhood is the thing you repress--
The fruit of desire is nothing
But baby is life's happiness.

MANY contestants in The Stairway
1Nl farer contest lost out, judges tell
us, because in their letters describing the
pageant, they emphasized the cost of the
performance.
You can hardly blame the contestants.
They have the cost of everything dinned
into their ears as the most important
feature of anything from movie film to
a banquet for visiting Rotarian.
There seems to be an idea abroad,
because of this, that something that costs
a million is necessarily 10 times as beauti-
full, interesting, artistic and intelligent as
something that costs 100000.
OF course, that's foolish.
Some of the best things in the world
cost hardly anything-and the most prec-
ous-salvation--is free.
Don't Judge things by what they cost
"The Wayfarer' would be just as beauti-
full, in spirit, whether it cost S250000 or
% cents.
