The House OI Friendly Serpice

REMEMBER THAT-

You may take to your omce and hang on the wall, A motto as fine as its paint, But if you're a crook while you're playing the game

The motto won't make you a saint. You can plaster your placards all over the wall But this is the truth I announce, It isn't the rnotto you hang on the wall, It's the motto you live, that counts.

If the motto says smile-and you carry a frown, Do it now-and you linger and wait; If the motto says help-and you trample men down, If the motto says love-and you hate; You won't get away with the motto's you stall

For the truth will come up with a bounce, It isn't the motto you hang on the wallft's the motto you LIVE that counts.

Not Far Wrong At That

The lady and her little boy went into the butcher shop, and as she waited for service the youngster looked about curiously at the various meat displays. Suddenly he saw something the like of which he had never encountered before. He grabbed his mother's arm and dragged her over to the end of the shop where the mystery lay upon a meat block, and asked-

"Mother, what on earth is that?"

"Tripe, my dear," replied the mother.

"Tripe?" he inquired, doubtfully.

"Yes, tripe,t' she said.

"That's awful strange," said the youngster.

"Why, my dear?" asked the mother.

"Because, Dad says that's all he ever gets over the radio."

THE STAY-AT-HOME

She spoke of places while we sipped our tea. Siam might well have been a block away, So intimate it seemed; Sahara lay A step beyond my garden gate; a sea

I never sailed was droning songs to me; I felt the languor of a tropic day; I saw a temple mirrored in a bay That told a tale of haunting mystery.

I have no time to travel roads around The world. but I have time to cross the lawn And lean upon the garden gate, and smell The fragrance of the flowers, hear the sound Of robins, gaze along the road where dawn Has come. and think of tales that others tell.

Ed Wynne Could Use This One

"What state in the union reminds you of one of the twelve apostles?" ttl don't know.t' ttTexas.t'

"How do you figure that?"

"Well, you see you drop the E-X-A-S and add O-S-E-S and you have MOSES."

The Great Mirror

The world is a great mirror. It reflects back to what you are. If you are loving, if you are friendly, if you are helpful, the world will prove loving and friendly and helpful to you. The world is what you are.-Thomas Dreier.

No Substitute

Health is the indispensable foundation for the satisfactions of life. Everything of domestic joy or occupation success has to be built upon bodily wholesomeness and vitality.-Charles W. Eliot.
