dren, but IL the father does not know
the children, If he has had no dealing
with them, that tie is not so strong as
1t might be- A home where mother
functions alone is only half a home
and Is in far less favorable position
than the home shared by father and
mother and the children. That makes
a unit that stands UP under any strain,
even the bowling Of the new baby.
Children cry for food. They cry be-
cause they are in pain. They cry be-
cause they are uncomfortable. They cry
for exercise. They cry to tell you what
Is wrong with them. Somehow, If one
listens to 9 baby cry In that spirit, all
irritation vanishes. The baby is telling
US something. II he could say it in
pleasant words, he would, but he must
use what he has, and cry
The baby can understand our Ian
guage as we do his. He understand
our gestures, our moods, our actions, the
tones Of our voices. All that we are
in responding to his cries, he under
stands, and he makes il all part of
his mental being. He weaves 1t into
his own self. We put harsh words,
harsh tones meanneSs, temper, into him
because We express them. We put love
and courtesy and kindness and happi-
ness into him because we express them.
Then consider well the crying baby.
Let father remember that this child
looks to him for q share of his growth.
Let the family remember that they are
building themselves into him and take
heed Of his cry. Answer it to the
| child's good as far as you can.

A Sermon for Today
Meaning of Easter.
BIZ rev. JOHN R. QUINN.

What mean We by this service2"-
Elk, xii.26.
All Christendom turns again to the
observance of Easter week. And Of all
the special days and weeks we cele-
brate, Easter is the most significant.
Patriotism has its high days and free
dom its monuments. There are days
set apart on which we celebrate the
triumphs of great navigators, great gen.
erals and great statesmen and histort-
cal events of signal Importance. But
surely, beyond all these, a season that
stands for so much to the race as
Easter does may well be celebrated each
year with songs and flowers and with
every mark of gratitude and loftiest
jubilation.
The great proclamation Of Easter is
Christ Is risen!" What does that
mean to us? What does it mean to the
racer 1t means the triumph Of life
over death. We look upon death as
the arch enemy of mankind, We have
seen death dig a trench across the
hemispheres and I'LL 1t with the cars
cases of nations. We have seen dt ia
digging graves over the whole face Of
the earth and filing them with one
generation after another. Death mas
reigned over the race as a monster
monarch; his palace is a sepulcher; his
fountains the falling tears Of world.
But in the light of Easter we see his
scepter broken, his palace demolished,
and the hour coming when all who
are in their graves shall come forth.
Christ is risen--"the first fruits Of them
that Sleep"
In the light Of Easter the world be-
comes beautiful. It is not the place of
sealed tombs; it is a place of tombs the
seals whereof are broken. 1t is not the
city of the dead; it is the city of God
through which flows the river Of life,
| the streams whereof make glad the
inhabitants therein. 1t is a portal OF
| paradise instead Of a place of sepul-
cheers, and there Is a light upon II
every Easter morning such as never
was before on seas or land until Christ
had risen from the grave.

her guest room with critical eye and
decided at once she would have to make
a new lamp shade. She took of the
old covering, measured the circumfer-
ence of the lower ring on the frame.
She used a piece Of string, then
measured its length on a yardstick.
She planned a shade Of manila paper.
Because she was using shallow pleats
she doubled the measure Of the oircum-
ference. Had she been planning deep
pleats she would have tripled the
length Of the circumference. She cut
the shade three inches deeper than the
distance between top and bottem ring
as measured on one of the wire con-
Meeting spokes. She planned no
decoration on the outside Of shade, but
planned to oil it on the inside with
boiled linseed oil. She knew she should
do this after the pleatS were laid.
She measured the length which now
is known as width of shade. The
width of paper Is now known as depth
of shade. The first fold was made
lengthwise of paper in the exact mid
die. Each half Is folded separately
She folded each half into halves. each
one of these into halves and so on until
the width Of fold was about two inches
She made all folds go the same way
and creased them with the fiat edge OF
a paper cutter to make them lie nat
When the shade was entirely pleateo
she reversed it and then folded each
two-inch section into halves. These
pleats reversed the previous ones, sc
the finished shade looked accordion
pleated. She measured down one inch
from top, also three inches from tor

The Crying Baby.

AL babies cry. 1t is the only way
they have Of exercising their lungs,
stretching their chests, arms and legs
They set the rhythm Of the exercise
with q couple Of lusty howls and then
begin with arms and legs. Red in the
face, they howl their woe to an unre-
Septive world.
Fl is unpleasant. Nobody likes TO hear
a CRYING baby performing night and
morning. But what are you going to
DO about It? He must howl his hour.
"a he does so in comparative peace and
bets satisfaction from 1t, he will soon
0utgrow that phase Of growth and his
howIs will conflne themselves 10 the
Jew periods when his necessity demands

I think 1t is downright mean for q
father to complain about a crying baby.
HIS mother does not want him to cry.
she has done and Is doing all she can
70 get him to stop. She has worked
with him all day, maybe been up all
night, and to have her husband begin
ecolding about the crying baby is too
much to bear. Anyway, isn't the baby

Easter boxes and party powder poSies
are among the trifling gifts that can be
made at home for Easter remembrance
gifts to send friends instead of Easter
cards. All Of these take but little time
70 make.
The equipment for making the boxes
consists of fancy colored paper, which
may be bought especially for the pur-
pose or cut from colored seed cata-
1ogues, advertisements, ETC.; paste, sciS-
pors and empty candy boxes strong
ones Of any size.
Cut the paper to At the sides and
cop Of the box and paste it smoothly
over these parts. If q hinged lid is
wanted, remove the sides of the cover.
Along the back paste two short lengths
Of narrow ribbon. Paste the other ends
to the inside back Of the box. only

Bureau boxes are just the things to

prefer them with lids, others without.

It up. I refused. She threatened me
with dismissal. I still refused. If she
had asked me politely to pick up the
pin should, of course, have done so.
She was a much older woman than I.
But her order was 30 rude that
couldn't obey it.
Now, why did we have this huge row
over such a trifie? She was a sensible
and able woman, though harsh and hot
tempered. I was a sensible enough girl,
though also quick tempered But the
fact was that away down deep we did
not like each other. She thought
was insolent and I thought she was a
tyrant. We were two strong wills that
could not live in the same department.
One Of US had to go. Fortunately for
me, I was transferred to a better job
In the same Office.
That deep disagreement is, think,
the answer to the letter which has just
come from a girl who works for the
United States Government-an I'M
signed letter. It seems to me that the
case as told in her letter Is quite hope
less.
mot long ago made a remark to q
friend, at least I thought she was a
friend. She had told me some very I'M
kind things about one of our chiefs. To
hurt him, not to hurt me, she made a
lot of talk out Of what I said. AS he
did not say anything to me, I did not
know how to explain It. Don't you
think it was his place to ask me for an
explanation? Instead he framed me in
my work. So, thinking would be fired,
I resigned. I feel sorry that did not
60 and tell on this girl. VIII you give
me some advice?"
You see why there's nothing to be
done about this incident. The chief
who framed this girl no doubt deserves
all the mean remarks she made and
more. But the disagreement Is too pro-
found to be Strengthened out, especially
since it's between a man who Is unfair
on one side, and girl who Is sensitive
and overweight on the other. I hope

she can get a Job in another depart
ment.
When you see tiny row at the Office
getting fat and dangerous-when you
see a cross word growing into noun
tain Of other words-then you can
know that the disagreement Is basic
and that the two who are quarreling
must separate. There's a lot of nom
sense about people who love each other
quarreling all the time. Sometimes
they do, but the quarrels pass swiftly.
They don't grow bigger and bigger.

ally. as too much shampootng seems
to stimulate the oil glands.
An astringent tonic should also be
used. as this will help decrease the
activity OF the oil glands. The fol-
lowing tonic may be rubbed into the
scalp two or three times a week and
also after the shampoo: One-half dram
salicylic acid, two drains tincture Of
cantharideS, one-half dram tinctlIre eff
capsicum, one ounce alcohol, four
ounces bay rum; shake well together.
II at all possible, use soft water for
the shampoo. as this is most important
in care Of the hair. When impossible
to secure soft water, ordinary hard
water may be softened by the addition
Of little borax. AS a final rinse add
little lemon juice or vinegar to a
basinful of tepid water. as these in
gradients not only make the hair easier
to handle, but also held to remove every
bit of oil or soap curd which might still
be left on the hair.

that part Of the design stands out too
prominently. In either case, cover the
entire wall paper with orange shellac.
This will subdue the colors Of the paper,
Transforming very crude looking paper
into one that Is artistic and harmoni-
Gus. Much scenic wall paper would be
improved by this treatment. Apply the
shellac with even strokes and thin,
using new paint brush, or one entire
ly free from timpentine. If the shellac
becomes thick while being used, thin
it with denatured alcohol.

and this is especially true OF oily hair.
Avoid tight, unventilated hats and make
sure that the hair and scalp are given
a thorough airing every day. Brush
ing the hair upward with long strokes
will insure the air getting to the scalp
and hair. II this can be done in the
out-of-doors sunshine it will be found
especially beneficial. In the absence
of genuine sunlight, those who have

Oily Hair.

When the sebaceous glands Of the
scalp become overactive one is annoyed
by having hair which is so excessively
oily that in but a day or two after the
shampoo the hair again becomes oily
and most unattractive in appearance.
Very often such condition shows that
the entire system is run down and
needs building up. So, in addition to
special external treatments for oily
hair and scalp, one should make sure
that everything is done to improve the
general physical condition.
Now as to external care. In the first
place, the hair needs frequent sham
pooling. Twice month is all that the
average head of hair needs, but in the
case of oily hair, once a week is not
too much. There are those who sham
poo even oftener than that, but If once
a week does not seem sufficient it is
better to use a dry shampoo occasion

each fold. She punched holes at the
back of each pleat or fold. The one
within an inch of the top gave the
top ring of frame place to cling. A
