Likewise oysters in all styles, chiciken salad and the entire list of old stagers of the lunchroom menus. Someone has calculated that in Bal- timore there are 183,059 lunchcounter handouts eaten by as many individuals each noonday. The average rise in the prices of the prime favorites on the table cards is five cents. Averaging the price of meals at 30 cents, see the appalling total of increase in_expendi- ture for the noonday standby!

Much of the unhappiness and im- providence in life is caused by early habits of procrastination, habits con- tracted unconsciously, perhaps, when character isat its formative stage, and at the very time when most atten- tion should be given to the untra ned mature. It is S0 easy to fall into a happy-go-lucky way of living, so easy to jog along umconcernedly, doing the things which suit us best and perhaps which count for the least, and leaving undone all the acts, and unspoken all the words, and unexpressed all the thoughts, ad unusued all the advan- tages which are really so essentlal to & better understanding of ourselves and the wonderful life being lived about us. ‘What & bright world of promise ful- filled this would be if responshility could only be made half as attractive as some of the minor diversions which seem to furnish so much pleasure to their partakers, If the hard places could be made soft. the rocky roads smooth, and dificult undertakings easy, there would be small necd for putting off from day to day the-ful- filling of any task whatever.

That brings the figures down to showing that Massachusetts 1s neglect- ing about 2,173,000 acres of the land within its borders, and that ia at least one-fourth of the total land, or more than one acre in four.
