Tune my heart to sing Thy praise"
That is a very soothing tune, I
am sure psychologists will agree, If
they hum it once or twice while
about their work.
Hummdng is divided into three
parts, though there may be many
variations. There is the primitive
and fundamental ''m-mm-m-mm-
mm," which is best for rocking the
baby, rather, 1 should say, for sew
ing or such like. Then there may
be Observation-Disclosures" which
is best for sweeping. "Di-de-dum-
dee. didle-dee-dle," is another good
one. all included under the general
head of humming. l myself have a
horrible little whistle that occasion
ally gets on the family's nerves.
But do not hum.
E. A. N.-Our readers seem to
have especial sympathy for that lit
tie boy who was put out of the win
dow to go for help to shoot that
bear. We infer that he did not get
eaten up, but we can imagine how
his brown feet flew adown the dusty
road!
The seven-cent prize bids fair to
be divided between two remarkable
stories, unless very much better
one puts in an appearance soon.

HEART'SEASE.

At twilight time
They came,
Three 1 love best.
Each with gift
My heart to rest.
The first, little book
By woman penned,
Who saw in natures plan
Gods hand; one
Who loved the hills,
And who kept safe
That beautiful thing
Called Faith.
And one, plant
All budded, gave,
With green leaves
Wet with dew,
I could not see the hue
OF budding flower,
But yet it spoke
To me a message clear
OF Hope.
The other, with smile
And chatting word,
Made light
Her gift of fruit
Red
And sweet,
And yet l knew
Beneath in beauty grew
A fruit Of spirit true
Called Love.
And so these three
Who were my own
Brought Faith,
And Hope, and Love,
And with these gifts
The years roll back
Age has no fears,
If twilight time
Brings oft to me
Faith, Hope and Love,
These three.

IS BREAD RICHER THAN CAKE?

"A study OIL dndlytlCdl lOOu values
quoted from Baking Technology by
American Medicine New York; shows
several interesting results, and COM
pels a revision of the usual ideas as
to the nutritive value of cake as COM
pared to bread. We read
"While cake is commonly described
as a rich food and so unsuitable for
children, the facts are to the contrary.
Cake, made as it is from -four, eggs,
sugar and butter, is no richer than Its
component parts, all of which, when
used in proper amounts, are excellent
foods, and all of which in other forms
constitute an important part Of the
diet of children. The protein content
of cake due to the use of -four, with
a weaker gluten content, is somewhat
lower than in bread. The sucrose or
sugar content is higher, both because
of the sweetness of the cake and the
frosting commonly applied to the top.
But the sugar content is not as hlgn
as that of other sweet foods and Is
less than a third as high as in candies,
and since physiologically it - con-
verified to simple sugars by Intestinal
Juices, the ultimate effect of eating
cake with sugar content of from IA
to 25 per cent, and starch content
of IS per cent. is no different from
that produced by eating bread with
lower sugar and higher starch con-
tent. The fat content of cake is high
er than that of bread. But bread is
rarely eaten except when spread with
fat. In practise therefore far less fat
is consumed with cake containing
butter-fat as a component than when
buttered bread is eaten. Indeed IN
actual practise buttered bread has
more than twice the fat content of
cake. When the customary measure
of the calorie value is applied to cake
and bread it is found that there is
very little difference between these
| two staple foods. They are both high
| in carbohydrate content but they also
! contain considerable protein, varying
| amounts of fat, small amounts of cal
| cium and phosphorus vitamins in ac-
| cord with the milk and egg and but
| teri used in the formulas and a
total energy value higher than any
| other staple food which is adapted te
| generous use at every meal"
This is reassuring for those of VI
who pack lunches for children OF
grown-ups. I have long been sus
| picious of the cake I make. It never
does seem to have much more flavor
than a good buttery yeast roll! 81

Wyoming and Engineering
The history of Wyoming is the
record of her engineering achieve
ments from the time General Dodge,
an engineer built the Union Pacific.
Mining Wyoming's coal, iron and
black gold are all engineering prob
lens. Building dams, canals, level
ing the land and turning the desert
into farms involves engineering.
Building railroads and highways
which will not drift in or wash u
requires engineering. Dividing wat
err with other states is largely an
engineering question. Wyoming Re
publicans did well to endorse an
engineer for governor at this stage
in the states development.
Congressman Impressed
Ask Congressman Winter for a
copy of the Casper-Alcove hearings
before the House Committee on Ir-
rigation and Reclamation. The
members of this body, all familiar
with irrigation projects, and de-
partment experts put Wyoming's
engineer through a gruelling exam

at the time:

Honey Protected

Honey Protected
Their industry endangered. Wyo-
ming honey men proved no less in
dustrious than their bees. Congress-
man Winter took up their fight.
The official report on the amended
bill reads in part:
There has apparently been a fear
on the part of some that corr sug-
ar might interfere with the honey
industry. There is no basis for
such fear. Corn sugar can not be
used as an adulterant of honey.
1t is coficient in sweetness for such
purpose, and it's use would result
in g~ranulations in the product which
would make it commercially i'm
possible. Honey in its natural state
is nearly one-half dextrose and one
half levulose, and if dextrose were
added to honey it would cause it
to granulate with time. Corn sugar
is 100 per cent dextrose, and if it
were added to honey it would hast
en- an multiply such granulation and
it can not therefore be used in com
b~inations with honey. Honey and
maple sugar are now fully protected
by law and regulation against adul-
teration. Honey may not be adult
Grated by adding anything to it
unless the fact of such addition is
plainly stated on the labels of the
packages or containers. This pro-
posed legislation does not in any
respect alter these laws Or regula-
tons against the adulteration of
honey or any other article. The
language of the original bill may
have been subject to such inter
probation, but that language has
been wholly discarded, and the
amended bill is not subject to such
interpretation; in fact it has the
approval of the food administra-
ton in the Department of Agri-
culture as rec from all effect on
the honey industry"
