There is the sweetness of their daily bread For savor. If they ever coveted Oreener meadows, for their rocky field They never fail in gratitude, to yield A tenth to God They take a stubborn pride Tn patches, and they wear them we'll They hide The hearts own springtime safely out of reach Behind New England's meagerness of speech. Coins in hand are hours in day. And laughter is a present, treasured way Beyond its time By some peculiar thrift, They eat their cake and keep the shared gift. Theirs is contentment, wrapping them about, Woven of the things to do without.

SUNSET SPLENDOR

Who is 1t that won't recognize, The Spendor of Sunset? Or feel refreshed with falling Rain, Although their brow be wet. We see Man-made work of Art; But then we soon forget, Nothing's there that can compare, With the Spendor of Sunset. We gaze at Modern Structure, That's built up mountains high, Nor little do we gesture
 Sunsets passing by. Even as in Rainbow
 When a Storm has passed away There's something in Sunset Glow, That welcomes the close of Day. We see a Lovely Flower Bloom, Give Grace to Earth's round Breast, And throwing of its Sweet Perfume Then welcomes Eternal Rest. Who is 1t that won't bend knee Or pray with baited Breath? For no Man will shout with glee, At the thought of sudden Death Even the roll of Western Plain; Is SO hard to forget But one can explain,
 The Splendor of Sunset. We see Great Rivers rise and now Never to be checked, But no Greater Glory do we know, Than the Splendor of @ Sunset. Then we say, aw let 1t pass, Thereu be another Day, Or if it be the last 3o enc but God can say. By Cliff Green of Oakyille, Conn.

 Planned By State

Hartford, Conn.,, Aug. IS - State Labor Commissioner Cornelius J. Danaher today announced that he was notifying tobacco warehouse men of a newly established mini mum wage rate of 35 cents an hour for those engaged in processing or preparing tobacco leaf, and that an inspection of those LAt,.ssHEs.. Sz.ents would proceed immediately to in- sure compliance with the order.
 According to Mr. Danaher ap- proximately fifty tobacco ware houses employing nearly 5000 peo- pie will be covered by the new Wage Order, recently authorized by L. Metcalfe Walling, federal admins trator of the Wage-Hour Law, to be effective at once.
 In defining the term preparation of tobacco leaf" MT. Danaher said that it included all operations in- volved in making cigar leaf tobac- co and scrap tobacco suitable for use in the manufacture of cigars, whether performed by employees of warehousemen, manufacturers. leaf dealers or others. It includes also the operations of grading, sorting, packing, sweating, fermenting, steaming and conditioning. It does not include, however, such prelim- mary processing of cigar types of tobacco or scrap tobacco therefrom as is performed in manufacturing plant as an integral part of the manufacturing operations attending the production of tobacco products other than cigars, nor does 1t in- clude operations performed by a farmer or on farm as an incident to or in conjunction with farming operations.
 In issuing notice of the new min imum rate, MT. Danaher acted in his capacity of State Administrator of the Federal Wage-Hour Law un- der an agreement recently entered into between the Stat Labor De- partment and federal authorities.
