The bouquet was highly appreciated. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Adams Supervisors, Carver Home. Lord, bless folk who, somehow, haven’t got there. Bless the folk who meant to do something fine, and haven’t done it yet; the folk who might have lived more nobly; the folk who are not as good as they ought to be, and know it. All who haven’t succeeded in busi ness, who have tried to go straight and failed, who get up meaning to keep their temper, and lose it be fore breakfast. Lord, bless all thos" and give them heart to try all over again. And I am one who has fallen short. Lord, help me Jo bring a first-rate spirit to a second-rate life. —H. L.

Liquid Wax is easier to use on furniture. Finger marks can be rubbed off with a clean cloth and ordinarily the wax needs to be applied only once a year. A Paper Plate glued to the bottom of the paint can provides a place for the paint brush and keeps paint from dripping onto the floor. You Should Wash Walls from the bottom up. Water which runs down a wall that already has been cleaned and moistened will not stain, but when it runs down a soiled surface it will leave streaks which are quite hard to remove. An easy and satisfying lunch on days you’ve wakened too late for breakfast consists of broiled bacon and fried eggs served in toasted buttered buns. Keep your dried fruits in the re frigerator so they’ll hold their original bright color, flavor and vitamin C. This also keeps them safe from insect damage. ^ Subscribe To _J he Voice_ SHOWALTER ROOFING CO.
