ONCE-OVERS
Menials Are Human

Did you ever pay any atten-
ton to the person filling a
menial position in your depart
ment?
Feel a little superior, don't
you, and so don't often smile
on the errand boy or the jack
of.all-trades who cleans the
brass and keeps things shiningly
clean around your office?
While none cares to be pat
ronized, there is satisfaction
and even pleasure in the
thought that those higher up
are not oblivious to the pres
ence of the ones whose places
could be filled most any time.
There is too much "class" in
certain organizations.
Those near the top are given
the benefit Of gracious smiles,
and those at the bottom get lit
tie besides censure and rude
ness.
The fellow at the bottom is
having the hardest time to get
along.
His income is small, there are
many disappointments, perhaps
dissatisfaction and complaints
at home.
When he is treated as an un-
important cog in the machinery,
it hurts.
Give the fellow a little joy
which kindness from you might
create.
You will get a lot of satisfac-
tiion out of the pleasure your
thoughtfulneSs brings to him.

So, This Is Love!

The electric grill may have
replaced the old kitchen stove
and the radio may have crowded
out the old melodeon; but up to
date, no adequate substitute
has ever been found for castor
oil, love, marriage-or a mans
shoulder to cry on.
There's one thing that a girl,
who knows more than a man
knows, doesn't know-and that
is, how she boreS him.
They may snap at each other,
hoot at each other and even
swear at each other; but, when
they begin to yawn at each
other and refuse to answer
back, it is time to buy the lilies
for loves grave.
Sex-attraction is nothing to
marry on, and infatuation
scarcely outlast the honeymoon.
It takes a lot of Grade A certi.
fled love to spread out over all
the years and run over into
Eternity.

old, old tree, lowered Mr.. Ruby
Throat, as proud as any king. In
side the cup were two of the tiniest
birds anyone could imagine. They
were no bigger than tumble bugs |!
They were as snug as any birds or
bugs could be in their tiny gray

covered with lichens which Mr.. and
Mrs. Ruby Throat had taken from

their home invisible.
do you hear anything, Boy?"
asked Jogalong, rather sadly.
The boy listened. "Why, that's
my mother calling. She always
calls like that for me to come to
supper, you know. You must
come with me, Mr.. Jogalong."
The boy was about to reach up and
take the Jogalong's hand to lead
him politely home with him, but
, Mr.. Jogalong had disappeared
quite as mysteriously as the Hum
mer.
"Oh, DEAR" sighed the boy. II
did want to see so many other
things, and / haven't the faintest
idea how to get home alone"
But suddenly he took a look
around him. Why, there he was in
his very own back yard! And,
strangely enough, there he had
been all the time, for the Land of
Wonders, boys and girls, is every
where. AS Mr.. Jogalong would
say, ''it's everything in the point
of view. And if you want to enter
the Land of Wonders, just stand
still and look around"

ment of Agriculture, University of
