Outstanding among the numbers played by the band were Inc seXtette from Lucia" and Waves of the Danube" a waltz which never loses its charm and which stirred every one present.

THERE'S q desperate letter be.
fore me-just such q letter
as you or I might have written in
one Of our black hours.
The writer Of the letter has
gone through great tragedy and
now life Is to be faced again.
But how? Many tell her how.
They describe the great fight
which lies before her. They ex.
hort her to summon all her cour-
age and steadfastness. They.
quote texts and send her lovely
poems. But somehow, to the poor
drained soul all this outpouring
has no meaning. It Is only a
great flood Of words. She cannot
cling to words. She wants def.
mite directions to which she can
cling. A recipe for getting out OF
sorrow as simple and practical as
a recipe for making fruit cake.
That's what most Of US need
when the time comes to get out
OF sorrow. We feel that We are
facing a great war against pain
and encouragement. All our
friends tell us that we are facing
a great war. They describe vast
Vistas of action. But there is
nothing left in US to fill those Wis.
tas. We are as empty as broken
balloons. How are we ever going
to wage that war? Which step
comes first2 What is the exact
procedure for mending a broken
life? Our friends cannot tell us.
They're strong on description. but
weak on detail.
YET THERE IS AN EXACT
PROCEDURE FOR MENDING A
BROKEN LIFE. AND, IF YOU
WILL FOLLOW 1T, 1T WILL
ALWAYS WORK.
It does not involves 9. tremen-
dous marshalling Of ones re"
sources to meet long.drawn.out
emergencies. it is very simple
and it works Immediately. It Is
simply this
IF YOUR HEART IS BROKEN
AND YOUR NERVE is GONE,
DO THE NEXT THING.

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DR.. C. A. L. Reed

Your child will ahortIy 80 back
to school.
Has he there enough fresh air
to breathe2
He has not II. sven under COM
ditions OF good ventilation. he has
less than $40 cubic feet Of air
space for himself.
In fact, a school that has only
that much air space per pupil is
crowded.
But in the absence of good ven
tilation there may be . much
larger allotment Of air space per
capita and the room win still be
crowded.
Various workers and expert.
mentors, says r. J. Duffield,
have shown that the cause OF the
discomfort experienced in over
crowded and overheated rooms is
not the increase of carbon dioxide
in the air.
But important as are the
changes in the composition Of the
atmosphere as a result OF human
occupancy, what really matters. is
the temperature and humidity.
The earlier belief that the carbon
dioxide content Of the air was the
chief, If not the only, factor. nat.
urally affected State and local reg
ulations about ventilation.
The practice Of mechanical ven
tilation OF school buildings has
continued to reflect the influence
of the belief in the harInfulness
of 'crowd poisons." In school
ventilation it was assumed that
the child did not require as much
fresh air as did the adult, with
the result that mechanical sys-
TENS of ventilation have gen.
orally been designed to furnish
30 cubic feet Of fresh air for each
child per minute. Varying the
quantity of air according to tho
temperature, says Duffie;d. does
not appear to have been sug-
gested in ventilation legislation.
A rational approach to the estab-
lishment OF scientific standard Of
air change in classrooms should

output of the pupils AMI OF the
temperature of the incoming air.
One of the functions of any
system Of heating is to heat air
entering the rooms by infiltra-
ton, and to compensate for heat
losses through walls and ceilings
and around doors and windows.
In other words, an attempt is
made to establish equilibrium be-
tween the heat loss and that
supplied.
Adult comfort is by no means
q reliable index OF the most
healthful temperature OF a class
room for the pupils. The heat
output Of q child is greater per
unit of body surface. The best
temperature for a child is lower
than that at which the majority
of teachers, particularly under
average conditions OF modern
feminine dress, will feel COM
comfortable. AS between the com.
fort Of the teacher and the health
of a roomful of pupils there is
but one choice: the room tenn
perature must be kept down and
the teacher must dress accord

Do tile Next Thing
BY Elsie Robinson

. JUST DO THE JOB WHICH
LIES IMMEDIATELY BEFORE
YOU.
Usually the "next thing Is =
very simple thing. Making . pot
OF coffee. Buying new skid chains.
Tidying bureau drawers. Sending
q suit to the cleaner. Writing to
Bill about that real estate deal.
All Of these things are next
things" They do not require much
thought or effort. They can be
performed even though your world
is shattered. They are almost au.
tomato acts and they seem utterly
unrelated to your great tragedy.
But they are not unrelated. They
have the most intimate relation
ship.
THEY ARE VITAL PARTS OF
THE HEALING PROCESS FOR
THEY ARE VITAL PARTS OF
LIFE. THEY ARE THE STUFF
OF WHICH NEW LIFE is
MADE.
Life isn't made Of huge decis-
ions, tremendous campaigns, vast
changes In attitude. Life grows
out Of small acts, the steady. reso-
lutte doing Of commonplace next
things" each one trivial in itself,
but absolutely essential to the
whole plan. Just as each tiny root
Is essential to the life Of the plant.
These small acts are your roots
the graphing tendrils by which
your broken spirit will sink itself
once more into the soil Of expert
ence and by which 1t will be nour-
ished.
II your life has been broken that
is the way to mend it. That is the
ONLY way to mend it. DO THE
NEXT THING. Then the next.
And the next.
There will be no joy in the doing
at first. You will feel no quicken
ing, no immediate easing Of the
pain. But gradually your life will
mend. New strength will come.
You will grow NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
And presently those who look upon
you will never suspect that you
once were broken off at the roots.
I know. For mended my life
that way.

MEDITATIONS
OF A WIFE
BY Helen Rowland.

When Man Does Not Choose"
NOT so long ago. a man felt that
IN he should offer an alibi for
being unwed, after thirty. Some
how, he felt that persistent bache-
lorhood was a reflection on his
charms or his income or his sex
appeal, and must be defended or
explained"
His constant attitude was apollo
getic-the "excuse.it.please'' atti'
tude.
He would cautiously warn
woman that he was mot a marry
ing man." or sadly remind her that
his heart was Elm the grave" or
that his duty was to his mother,
or that he was welded to his ca
.reer. Or, il none Of these worked
he would desperately cook up
secret sorrow" as an alibi for his
life OF self-determination.
But all that was in the mellow
glamorous days of wing collars
and high1cut waistcoats. Now men
marry oftener and earlier than
ever; but when one Of them does
manage to hold onto his liberty up
to the middle thirties, he glories In
his defiance!
When a modern man does not
choose to marry, he simply states
coldly, casually, but FINALLY
that he does not choose" to
marry. And that's THAT!
It's very illuminating! And 1t
saves a girl a lot of time, effort
and disappointment. Because you
may entice or persuade man who
does not want" to marry, or trip
one who does not Intend" to
lnar'ry-but what can you do with
one who fatty does not Choose"
to marry? You not only can't
elect him-you can't even nomi.
nate him!
You may arouse a sense Of moral
OD4IBdIAOA Al a 1909 Ve1AAe~AAS SPA@AN1
or lull to sleep the misgivings OF
a. timid soul. You may even bride
a man who thinks he cannot af'
ford to marry.
But trying to get to the altar a.
man who does not choose" to
marry is like trying to move the
pyramids, or to make dent in
the Rock of Gibraltar by throwing
pebbles at it.
There is nothing to do but let
him batch" it out, until he gets
TIRED. 1t is useless to appeal to
his higher nature" or to try to
convince him that 1t is his duty to
his race and his country to sustain
the sacred home ana family" 1t
is not even much use to turn on
the lure and appeal to his CLOVER
nature" with petttng and home
cooking.
He will never marry! Never,
NEVER-untu some determined
woman comes along and gets him
so tangled up that he can't see
where he Is going, and he finds
himself, at the -altar.rail! 1.

Few Western people even think OF
death in a very personal way. it
