Thursday, 8th, 1918, Page 3a. May on —————— — Pleasant Evening Reveries ers as They Join the Home The Home Circle Dedicated to Tired Moth- Circle at Evening Tide. A Joyous Holiday. Arbor Day serves to remind us that the history of the country is a record of warfare on {ts forests. We are planting an acre of trees annually while fifty acres are laid bare by the axe and fire. With thoughtless free- bootery or sheer ignorance, we have destroyed our forests with a reckless ness that if continued a century more will turn the land into a desert waste. Is it fair to thus bring on future generations two of the greatest calam- ities that could befall them—a scarcity of fuel and want of water? Let a halt be called upon this wanton devasta- tion. Let Arbor Day be something more than an observance that begins at sunrise and ends at the close of day. Patriotism that exhausts itself in Fourth of July powder, bell ringing and eloquence {8 not worth much. Let the spirit of Arbor Day extend through the year. Make the day so joyous and so full of interest and pleasure that the children will look forward to it as they do to Christmas, New Years, the Fourth of July, and Thanksgiving. Tree planting, tree culture and tree cultivation should be considered a matter of pride. Let the reward be generous for those who ex- cel in things whereby the greatest possible good can be accomplished | with the least possible effort. Children love flowers and trees nat- urally. If their love does not strength- en as they grow older, it is because they have no means of fostering and exercising it. But the children of a large growth | do not always understand the im- portance of forest preservation and tree planting. It is not for shade and | beauty alone that trees should be pre- served and increased. The planting | of a single row of trees has often had a perceptibly favorable affect upon the healthfulness of the community, Belts | of trees planted In the community of pestilential marshes have rendered them no longer noxious to those living near them. There is nothing in the world more beautiful than a happy home, a home ruled by the spirit of love; and it is woman's highest and noblest mission | to preside over her home, and make it a perfect haven of love, peace and rest to those who dwell therein. It is not necessary to be rich and live in a stately mansion, with gilded walls and carpeted floors, be happy, for happiness depends on the mind, and (t is better to live quietly in a little three- room cottage than in the finest man- sion, with worry and strife to contend with. We should strive our utmost to make our home as bright and at- tractive as possible, and by doing to BO | WO | of work. we will make it the dearest spot on earth for our loved ones. » . We all fret and fuss and scold too much. If things go wrong they can never be righted by our sour face and a cross word, Let us comfort every calamity, great and small, with sweet- ness and calmness, with untroubled faith and serenity, and age will find us with faces good to look at and volces sweet to hear and a presence that is attractive because we have substituted for the freshness and color of youth and sweetness and gentle wisdom of age, and when death claims us, our children and neighbors will feel that som: of the light has gone out of thelr lives and that this world Is less dear because we have gone before, LJ * * Don't be a growler. Some people contrive to get hold of the prickly side of everything; to run against sharp corners and disagreeable things. Half the strength spent in growling would often set things right. You may as well make up your mind to begin with, that no one ever found the world quite as he would like it; but you are to take vour part of the trouble and bear it bravely. You will sure to have burdens laid upon you that belong to be other people, unless you are a shirker | yourself, but don't grumble. If the | work needs doing you can do it, never other who ought to Those work - mind about that have done it and didn't, ers who fill up the gaps and smooth away the rough spots, and finish up the jobs that others leave undone, they are the true peace makers and are rth a whole regiment of growlers. can afford to do without music.

To a friend she confided the source of her trouble; and from this friend she learned that it had always been sald that a man even slightly Intoxicated cannot pronounce words of any length. Whereupon the young wife decided that that would be a good plan to try, When next the friend met the young wife she was in a state of great agitation, Asked if the suspicions had been verified, the girl burst into tears and sald that they had. “I handed him this Het” whe sald, between sobs, fishing from her pocket a paper which she gave to her friend, and which contained the following words: Phthisls, pho- tochromy, gnomiometrical, hypochon- driasis, parachronism, phlegmasia do- tie, antinomian- “he bungled nearly half of them” | State THE CENTR OVER THE COUNTY. = Lutheran making ar- repairs to The members of the church at Mlillhelm are rangements for extensive thelr church, Mrs. Jennle H, Springer and son, Walter, of Millheim, left last week for Akron, Ohlo, where they will make thelr future home, Hall Is bewalllng the does not have a Bigelow up the streets, State College to be In the same boat accerding the Times.
