MOTHERS KISS

In childhood days of yesterday,
when we were out at play, we'd oft
times get a bump or bruise or cut,
or a splinter in our anatomy. "Mom''
would be the doctor and nurse and
then and there Mom'd apply kiss or
two and much sooner than we knew
we'd be out again, healed and well,
feeling almost like new; we'd be hurt
and crying, but, shucks, we'd forget
all this when "Mom" came along and
dried our tears with that tender, low
ing kiss.
We'd play soldier and pirate and
play we owned a farm-sometimes, |
remember, we'd raise quite some alarm
when we'd place with our "beanshoot-
ers" a stone where it shouldn't be;
mother'd call us up and smile, heck, it
seemed she just couldn't lick me.
When playin' ball we'd sometimes
have a fight or two-'course the Teller

feelin' blue; but shucks, it didn't mat
ter-I've never known it to miss, when
we got home Mom'd have it ready
that tender, loving kiss.
Now, when we are grown and away
from our Mother dear we often pine
and wish that she could be present
and near when the world gives us those
inevitable bruises and bumps: we long
for Mother who still has the art of
soothing our every bump. Yes, we
even think of and long for those mo-
ments of childhood bliss when Mother
always had it ready-that tender,
loving kiss.
Dedicated to my Mother.

BUSINESS INDEX
SHOWS DECLINE

WASHINGTON - Business ac-
tivity during January declined
somewhat from the pace attained
In December, but was well ahead"
Of that in January, 1899. the COM
merce department reported today.
The departments monthly BUSH
ness review showed activity was
relatively high in plants producing
advanced manufactures" where
substantial, untitled order totals
were carried over from last year.
A decrease in primary manufac-
lures" attributed to 4 higher rate
Of production than called for by
new business, forced the general
level downward, however.
The department cited = decline
in the prices Of basic Industrial
raw materials AZ AN outward
manifestation Of the more eau
tious purchasing policies that
have prevailed lately"
~ QTop III slcci oidciss WhASh
constitute = heavily weighted
factor on the monthly index, fea-
tured the decline, the report said.
The federal reserve boards
monthly bulletin revealed that
the boards seasonally adjust .
ed index Of Industrial produc-
tion dropped from 128 for
December to 120 for January.
Explaining that its index is adj
justed to meet ordinary seasonal
changes, the board said the drop
probably was explained by the
fact that many important indus
tries were increasing operations
as rapidly AZ possible in the latter
part Of the year, with some APP
preaching capacity production"
This, 1t said, was reflected in the
high December index figure.
The board said 1,000,0 900 fewer
persons were working now than
in 1929, but that they were pro-
ducing more goods due to techni-
cal improvements.
