jarÖneskrar gleði sé móÖur-gleÖin og
sárust allra mannlegra sorga sé
móðursorgin. Sjálf móðir Drottins
Jesú, hefir í söng og sögu hlotið
nafnið Mater dolorosa, móðirin
harmþrungna. Samt vitnaði sendi-
boðinn himneski það, að sælust væri
hún allra kvenna. Móðirin góða,
kristin kirkja, biður sig ekki undan
sorginni. Sé hún sjálfri sér trú,
hefir hún fyrirheiti herra síns:
“Hrygð yðar mun snúast i fögnuð.”
“í Jerúsalem skuluð þér huggaðir
verða.”
Með þann fögnuð trúarinnar í
hjarta lúkurn vér máli þessu um
æskulýðinn ,og kirkjuna, horfandi
björtum vonar-augum fram í tímann
og biðjandi Guð af öllu hjarta að
gefa oss hinurn eldri lund til þess
og lag á því að búa æskulýð vorn að
heiman með treflana tvo, svo ekki
kólni, honum á brjósti í snjóflóði
lífsins. Margföld umbun alls sem
vér á oss leggjum, er sá fögnuð,ur
hjarta vors, að vér vitum, að æskan
tekur við af oss og eftirkomendur
vorir muni trúaröruggir syngja
“Lofið vorn Drottin” og “Á hendur
fel þú honuimi,” löngu eftir er vér
hinir eldri höfum hinsta sinni sung-
ið “Nú legg eg augun aftur.”
PERFECTED DETROIT
DARK REDBEET
Manitoba Market
Gardeners’ Award of
Merit, 1936, and All
American Award,
1934
Detroit Dark Red has
been Canada’s best main
crop Beet, but has now
been still further improved
by the deepening of the
zoning and the lessening
of the white rings, which
in the New Perfected
Strain is almost entirely absent, especially in
the fall. An excellent canner.

BCV YOUR SEEDS DIRECT—It is impos-

Cabinet the wide assortment to choose from
found in our Seed List, containing 281 varie-
ties of vegetables and over 500 varieties of
flowers.
IF—McFayden Seeds were se.nt out to
Stores in Commission Boxes, we would prob-
ably have a lot of seed on our hands at the
end of the season.
If this seed we.s thrown away it would be
a total loss, and we would have to charge
more for our seeds, or put less seed in a
packet to make up for it.
If, bn the other hand, we did not throw it
away, but kept it over and sent it out in
packages again, the tendency would be for
us to accumulate a lot of old seed.
We, therefore, sell direct to you only—NOT
through Commission Boxes — TESTED
SEEDS, and give you the beneflt of the sav-
ings made in this way.

WE’RE ALL NUTTY
HERE AND THERE
tty P. N.
SUMMER SPORT
HERE we are again, almost into
the season of unrest and dissatis-
faction. Spring is just in the
offing and it must be the heavy
flannel underwear that itches and
keeps folks on edge. Everybody
wants to get into some new line of
business. Feeling that he has not
been getting anywhere at what he
has been doing, he wants to try
something else.
When I went in for a haircut the
other day, Frank, the barber, had the
shop all littered up with pamphlets
on “How to Raise Bees and Produce
Honey.” He had sent away for the
literature, and he was hot on the
honey game. He says the barberirig
trade is all shot. Women are cutting
the men’s hair, or pulling it out or
something. Lots of fellows who used
to be tidy about their hair have got
careless and let it grow, until they
look like House of David ballplayers,
Frank says. It all kills business and
makes the outlook bad for barber-
ing.
Frank has several boys and
he had thought of getting a
vacant lot and putting some
bee hives on it to keep the lads
employed during the summer, and
maybe make some cash. One of the
customers in the barber shop advised
Frank to keep out of it. He had
tried it and got in trouble. The
neighbor women complained. When-
ever their children had a rash or
hives or such, they said the bees had
stung them, and it kept him in hot
water all the tiine. He advised
Frank to grow mushrooms or
chickens. j
“And,” Frank said, “I might get
stung too, or my boys might.” So
he may go into chickens or mush-
rooms until barbering improves.

LITTLE CHESTER
FIRST thing each morning I run
up the blind on my bedroom win-
dow, to catch a glimpse of the
sunrise and try to figure if there is
any chance of an early Spring. It
was a bright February morning,
about fifteen below. There was little
Chester again, just outside the back
gate, picking over the ash heap,
looking for the odd piece of coal or
coke that worked its way through
the furnace grate.
Nearly every morning during the
winter I had seen the boy picking
away at the ashes with a stick, his
fingers, or kicking at the pile with
the heel of his shoe, in search of the
unburnt chunk which he tossed into
the large paper bag he had standing
beside him in the lane.
I would have been surprised if
Chester hadn’t been out there when
I ran up the blind. He had been
there regularly at about the same
time in the morning nearly all win-
ter. It was a tough job for the little
lad. I had often noticed him shiver-
ing from the cold. He seemed to run
off at a fast clip every time he got
through with our pile of ashes. When
I had first noticed him, I mentioned
him to Margaret, and she said she
would tell the boy who carried our
ashes out to the lane, to put a shovel
ful of good coke into each scuttleful
of ashes. Chester seemed to be
about eight years old and he was
awfully well pleased when he no-
ticed so much good coke in the pile.
Chester said his folks were very
poor, and that was why he had to
go out in the cold mornings to gather
all the coal he could find to keep his
mother and little sister warm at
home. His dad had to work for very
little, whenever he had work to do.
The incident brought back to me
recollections of sixty years ago,
about 1876, down in Ontario, when
the boys who were poor used to go
out with bags on their backs and
gather bones or old cast iron, which
they would sell for one cent a pound.
After even sixty years of progress
and prosperity in this fertile country
there are still poor boys who have
to go out and pick coal and coke out
of the discarded ashes in the lanes to
keep from freezing in chilly homes,
same as poor boys sixty years ago
had to gather bones and old iron to
get a few pennies to keep soul and
body together.

BETTER TIMES
ROGER W. BABSON, the famous
economist, in reviewing the gen-
eral trade situation in America
recently, said the outlook for pro-
gress and improvement was better
in Canada and the Southern States
than elsewhere on this continent.

RIGHT IDEA
THE Windsor Daily Star, Canada’s
greatest newspaper, says:
“Attorney-General W. J. Major
is trying a laudable experiment with
Manitoba’s dope addicts. When they
go to jail, he’s segregating them. The
boys out at Headingly, just west of
Winnipeg, are reported to be object-
ing to this discrimination. They
threaten violence. But Mr. Major
has the right idea.
“Until Canada wakes up to the
seriousness of the situation, drug
fiends should be segregated. They
shouldn’t be allowed to mix with
youthful auto thieves or veteran
safe-crackers, at all. Hospitals, with
iron bars of course, are where they
should be. In the meantime, you’re
only asking for trouble when you
send coke sniffers or morphine needle
plungers to the same hoosegows to
which you commit other offenderg.
For addicts, as any doctor will tell
you, are never content to keep their
sad affliction to themselves. They’re
constantly looking for converts. Ánd
they get ’em, in our jails, by the
scads.”

I SHALL NOT ASK TOO MUCH
I shall not ask too much beyond the
grave;
Just some dear, common things that
living gave—
And time for them—ah, time to stay
a while
Where wind blows over grasses, mile
on mile;
And time to watch when stars are
gleaming through
Some still and starless dusk’s deep
drifted blue.
I
And I should like, one summer after-
noon,
To climb a hill and wait there for
the moon,
That I could never wait for, and
then go
Unhurried back to certain friends l
know,
I shall be glad if seasons come and
pass,
Bringing the same swift miracles of
grass.
Of sun and rain, of berry, bud and
bloom,
And snow-filled midnights of wind-
shaken bloom.
I shall want little paths and woods
and walking,
And those same friends at evening
and their talking.
Under dull lamps in queer, quaint
smoky places—
(I would not lose those voices and
those faces.
These I shall ask beyond the narrow
grave,
And time for them—which living
never gave.
—David Martin, in the Forum.
