- *
Now that the long awaited Guid

and Uncle Gil is desirous that all
of Omaha’s young may have the

Sunday school and youth activity
directors in the various churches

by urging all who have a talent of
any kind to participate in the pro
gram and display which preceeds
the party at which all will be ser
ved.
Every boy and girl who is a mem
be* of the Guidite club is urged to
call at the office of the Omaha
Guide, 2418 Grant street and get
a membership card which will en
title you to be served on November

GAMES
Peanut Pantry
The peanuts have been hidden
in various parts of the room be
fore the boys or girls arrive, pre
ferably by a chosen committee of
the youth themselves. The boys and
girts are allowed a certain time to
hunt, when time is up, each comes
and counts his peanuts out on the
table and leaves them there. The
one having found the most in the
alloted time is declared the win
ner.
Mind Reading
This game may be played by any
number of persons. Have a 6lip of
papftr passed to each person, re
questing each to write the name
of any city, person or country, or
any sentence he desired upon the
slip. The slips are then folded and
collected and the one who acta as
medium takes one slip of paper at
a time, holds it to his forehead,
and after fl mements though calls
eui the name that is supposed to
bn written on the paper. The trick
is to have an accomplice, who, in
stead ef folding his paper like the
rent, will fold it in a different
Hie medium and this person have
appeed upon what word or sentence
shall he written. The medium when
reading his Crst paper will call off
what was written by his confeder
ate and aefles “who wrote this?’’
Tka •onfedemate will immediately
sag did.” He opens the paper
and IMs give* him his cue for the
newt wastf nr sentence.

The Guidite World
of Music

Works of Henry W. Longfellow
Among the poets whose lines
are most often used for musical
setting, Longfellow ranks with
Goethe, Heine and Tennyson.
As a child, music had always had
an active part in the atmosphere
of Longfellow’s home life. As a
youth and as a mature man, he
frequently attended concerts and
was many times moved to tears at
these performances. He liked the
music of the past better than that
of the future. Extracts from his
journals and letters quote him as
saying, ‘Music is the universal
language of mankind” and another
time “Music is the prophets art ”
"Among the gifts that God has
sent.” ‘‘One of the most magnifi
cent” He was particularly fond of
Beethoven’s music. Among his
many musical friendB were Ole
Bull, the noted Norweigian violin
ist and composer. Some of Long
fellow's best known works which
have been used for musical settings
in songs, operas, cantatas, etc. are
his “Stars of the Summer Night,”
“Good Night, Good Night Beloved,”
“A Psalm of Life,” “The Song of
Hiawatha” and other Hiawatha
works. “The Wreck of the Hes
perus,” “The Courtship of Miles
Stand ish,” and many others.

FAMOUS QUOTATIONS
Truth is the highest thing that
man may keep.
Full wise is he that can himself
know.
Honor is purchased by the deeds
we do.
How poor are they that have not
patience.
All the world's a stage and the
men and women merely players
They have their exits and have
their entrances.
And one man in his time plays
many parte.
Reading maketh a full man, con
fidence a ready man and writing
an exact mm.
He that has light within his own
clear breast may sit in the center
and enjoy bright day. But he that
hides a dark soul and foul thought
benighted walks under the midday
sun* himself is his own dungeon.
The mind is its own place, and
in itself can make a heaven of hell
a hell of heaven.

Jack:—“Hey, what’s the big idea
painting your car red on one side

Jim:—It’s a great idea. You
should hear the witnesses contra
dicting each other."

NOW OFTEN CAN YOU
KISS AND MAKE UP?
FEW husbands can understand
why a wife should turn from a
pleasant companion Into a shrew
for one whole week in every month.
You can say " I'm sorry" and
Idas and make up easier before
marriage tban after Be wise. Ifyou
want to bold your husband, you
won’t be a three-quarter wife.
For three generation* one woman
has told another how to go "smil
ing through" with I.ydia E. Pink
ham’s Vegetable Compound. It
helps Nature tone up the system,
thus lessening the discomforts from
the functional disorders which
women must endure to the three
ordeals ef life: 1. Turning from
girlhood to womanhood. 2. Pre
paring for motherhood. 3. Ap
proaching "middle age.”
Don’t be a three-quarter wife,
take LYDIA E. PINKHAM’S
VEGETABLE COMPOUND and
Oo ’’HmlUug Through."
