THE GAME OF LIFE

 Our hats are off to the man who wins On the field of struggle and strife, Where success is the stake for which we play In the strenuous game of life. There are those who try. but fail to win. Though they've given the game their best, But even the losers who stake their all. May hold up an honored crest. For it's better by far to have played the game And tried for winners share, Than to put up the cowardly quitters plea That's the games not conducted fair. That Mighty Judge. who rules all things, Makes the rules that govern the play. And his laws that govern the Universe. Show the wisdom of his way. And guess that Judge is wise enough Who will referee the game, To give us just decision. And decide on the winners name. So don't be quitter. but get in the game And try for winning prize. For the game of life is fair for all, And winner is one who tries.

LITTLE TRIPS INTO. NATURE. ". The Ways of Moths.

When you hear the name 'moth," " what is the first thought that comes to your head? think most persons will think of how moths cause damage to clothes and rugs. or else of how moths fly toward light. N
 Now that electric lights are wide- ly used, moths may not burn them- selves if they fly into our homes at night. Tn days when oil lamps were in general use, 1t was a common thing to see moth commit suicide. The insect would get inside lap chimney and would fiutter around until burned to death unless a soft-hearted human being lifted the chimney. to set it free. Even in the latter case, the moth might get Inside the chimney again. .-ss.4ss
 suppose moths have no desire to end their lives, but an impulse of some sort makes them ttry to get near a flame.
 It Is . mistake to regard all moths as enemies of clothing. Most kinds of moths do no harm to cloth of any kind. The "clothes moth" is small member of the tribe which lays eggs in woolen fabrics or in furs. The eggs hatch into worms which do the damage.
 Other moths lay eggs on living plants. One pretty moth with shin. ing black wings spotted by white lays eggs on the leaves by grape
