The bread you eat reveals your character. This was the decision of the American Bakers' Asso- ciation, in convention at Chi- cago as announced by Secre- tary Tom Smith. "Every step away from the coarser, darker breads is really a step nearer civiliza- tion." "Way back in ancient Egypt as soon as the upper classes began to get wealth and leisure they began to demand white bread and the trend toward white bread 'among the higher races has been continued ever since."

FBEMING er stn Communication Every time we pass the Children's Shelter we think of the poor unfortun: ate children who are there through no fault of their own. We wonder if they are well cared for, and provided with sufficient and nourishing food. We wonder if the Matron is a kindly and motherly woman. And we hops all those who have authority are large: heated people and lovers of children. We wonder if the children have ample liberty to romp and play as all healthy young people should. Perhaps some of them are happy and some other- wise according to their dispositions and inclinations. Our hearts go out to all children of whatever color or nationality. Hvea those who are called vicious are usual- ly more susceptible to kindness than harshness. What is sweeter than the laugh of a child? So we say let them laugh let them play. In after life they will have enough to be seri- ous about. "The laugh of a child will make the holiest day more sacred still. Strike with hand of fire, O weird musician, thy harp strung with Appolo's golden hair; will the vast cathedral aisies with symphonies sweet and dim, deft toucher of the organ keys, blow, bugle blow, until thy silvery notes do touch and kiss the moon-lit waves, and charm the lovers wandering 'mid the vyine-clad hills. But know, your sweetest strains are discords all, com-, pared with childhood's happy laugh --the laugh that fills the ages with light and every heart with joy. @) rippling river of laughter thou art the blessed boundery-line between the beasts and men; and every wayward wave of thine doth drown some grate- ful fiend of care. O laughter, rose- tipped daughter of joy, there are dim- ples enough in thy cheeks to catch and glorify all the fears of grief." FAMOTERRA. J. H.
