Children! children are the crown of old men; and the glory of chil dren are their fathers. Prov. 17:6. Shake hands, dad. How many children call yon that? There are five who have called me dad or pa or poppy. Excuse me for mention ing it, but I want yon to know that I am no mere theorist in this matter of being the father of a family. Now here it some straight stuff: It is father's duty to give some time every week to his boys 'and girls. The only time I have been able to give to mine is Sunday. My Sundays have belonged to the chil . dren. - - ' I have been to church and Sun day school with them always, be cause in the light of some hundreds of years of history, there is nothing that yields better returns, in the long run, than habitual reverence for God. "Only those who believe in God do good. In private," say the French. .... Sunday afternoons we have al ways taken a walk, when the weath er permitted, or if too stormy, we have read story books together,' or (have made various kinds of, scrap books. 1 la oar walks we usually had a definite objective. We went to see ; somebody, or to get a particular view, or to visit our favorite trees, or to look for some new thing in ' particular. We counted birds' nests one trip; on another we searched for cocoons; oi a third, dug into old stumps to gee what we could . discover; or looked under pieces of wood and bark; found the smallest growing things; collected leaves or see packs of as many kinds as pos sible; learned the wild flowers, the birds, the butterflies and moths, the ferns, the' trees, the mushrooms; made collections of eolored things flowers, leaves, insects, pebbles and so forth, and arranged them in the spectrum order: followed a brook is summer with "Tennyson's Brook" as a guide: folowed one in winter with "Lowell's Brook (in the Vision of Sir Launfal) as a guide. Jn a word we studied God's great wonderful outdoor book in the after, just as diligently as we studied the best literature in the morning. And what results? Five open eyed, open minded, intelligent young men and women, devoted to their parents and grateful for what their Heavenly Father and His children have done for them, a mother who is still vouner and haoov fbeeause 'she got a little rest on Sunday during those strenuous years), to say nothing of a father who now thanks God for the privilege of still being a boy though in his fifties. , We shall never forget those long evenings in our city home when the girls came back from seminary and high, school,, and .: the", boys . from. Harvard and "Tech," and we sat around the dinner table together, forgetful of time. We were all more entertaining to each other than any show ever staged, because by this time each of the children had dis covered his own special field of in terest and delved into it beyond the limit ' V IMV vui, in tuc Bit-ab realms of nature and literature that we had begun to enjoy together when : they were little children. Each one could, therefore, make his own particular contribution to the delight of all. Fool rooms, saloons, clubs, stag parties? When will short-sighted, self-indulgent, arrogant fathers learn that in1 their own wives and chil dren are the possibilities of peren nial delights and solid satisfactions compared with which other things are dust and ashes.

(Copyright Applied For.) Prohibition May Bring Community Playhouse to the Kiddies. Why not turn the corner saloon into a community playhouse when the law effects the closing of these gathering places, asks Miss Hazel MacKaye, director of the depart ment of pageantry and drama of the National Young Women's Christian association. "I went over on the west side of New York one night recently to at tend a community drama meeting," Miss MacKaye says, in explaining her theory, "and as I was riding along I noticed how many saloons there were one on every corner and another in , the middle of the block, it seemed, all just blazing with lights. Those lights ought not to go out with prohibition. They ought to shine for something worth while to all of the people and what better than community dram: and sings?" Miss MacKaye feels that the war has given a great impetus to popular interest in drama and that through pageantry and drama a great deal in the way of Americanization can be effected. Through the community center, if it be in a district populated largely of one foreign nationality, these peo ple could present pageants of the life in their mother countries, translating them into English, so that Amer icans and also the younger English speaking members of their household could understand and appreciate their traditions. American art would be greatly enriched thus through the drama of all of the nations whose peoples have settled in this country. On the other hand American ideals, American history and American festivals, even laws such as child labor and minimum wage, could be interpreted to these people by means of pageantry. "People have been learning not only to work together but to play together," Miss MacKaye says, "par ticularly since the wi 'hen the peo ple stood together in drives and large patriotic community entertain ments. The opportunity to build up a great community organization is now at hand and the time is ripe for it. Why not utilize the corner saloon?" EAT f THE BEST BREAD SKINNER BAKING COMPANY OOUOLA5-IM VRAC MAO Famous Brew w om? Economics HOUSEHOLD ARTS MPT The Cost of Living From time to time this depart ment has published studies of the cost of food, just ordinary food, such as all of us have every day. There are people who hate to know what they are spending for food; but there are other wiser folk who like to know how their expenditures for food compare with other people's. Also it is always of general interest to know what is the least amount that wilt maintain body health. Minimum Food Costs. We used to say that people could be adequately nourished at 25 cents per person per day. Now we say 35 cents per person per day is the minimum for a diet that satisfies all bodily needs. The following dietaries were planned at that level by students in my high school dietaries class. DIETARY I. (Planned by Blanche Curtis.) Breakfast. Half arange. v Toast and oleomargarine. Coffee for adults. Milk for children. Lunch. Corn fritters. Bread and oleomargarine. deiatine with bananas. Tiffin Baked split peas. Mashed potatoes. urcaa ana oleomargarine. Constarch pudding with strawberry gsrmsn. DIETARY II. (Planned by Violet Brotchie.) Breakfast Oatmeal. Scrambled eggs. Toast. Coffee for adults. Milk for children. Lunch. Macaroni and cheese. Garden lettuce and radishes. Bread and oleomargarine. Chocolate Cornstarch. Buttermilk. Pudding. Dinner. Hamburger steak with tomato sauce. Riced Potatoes. Dandelion greens. Bread and oleomargarine. Rhubarb shortcake. Tea. Forty-five Cent Dietaries. Going above the minimum cost of food, a jump of 10 cents allows much more choice. In fact some re cent figures from the University of Wisconsin would show that 45 cents per person per day is a really ade quate allowance, if one is willing to use brains as well as cash in the purchasing of the food. Dietary at 45 Cents. (Planned by Jeanette McEachern.) Breakfast. Oranges. Toast and butter. , Eggs. Coffee for adults. Milk for Lunch. children. 1 Spanish Rice. Bread and butter. Bananas and cream. Tea for adults. Milk for children. Dinner. Veal Steak. Mashed potatoes. Scalloped onions. Bread and butter. Strawberries.
