SOCIAL CORNER POETRY Laugh Build yourself a strong box, Fashton each part with care; Pit it with hasp and padlock, Put all troubles there. Hide all ¥ ailures, And each bitter cup you quaff, Lock ail your heartaches within it Then—Sit ¢n the lid and laugh. Tell no one its contents, Never its secrets share. Drop In your cares and your worries, Keep them forever there. Hide them from sight, so cempletely, The world. will never dream half Tasten the top down securely, Then—Sit on the lid and laugh.

I enjoyed meeting so many of the ladies. I have been much interested in read- ing the letters that referred to the elureh at Westminster, as my mother attended that church when a girl, her ather being one of umber of years Now I am going te ask if 1 may be- feome 4 member? the deacons for a MABEL. JEVELYN STILL VERY MUCH ALIVE. | ‘Dear Soectal Corner Friends: It has Meen a long time since I have written, and T have thought of changing my name A8 80 many people con®ised it with Eth- elyn. Howewer, if Ethelyn does not ob- Ject, | think It may be bewt to keep the same name, though I have written a few times ‘under different ones. Some time ago thers was a letter in The Corner rigned Evelyn and later sowaeons wrote that our friend Evelyn had passed away. ‘Well, it ‘was not this one, as I am still veéry much alive. Several weeks ago there was consid- erable discussion in The Corner as to the origin of the name of the locality kmown as Gay Head. My curiosity was excited, not because I had been there. as J have never been within several miles of the place, but when I was a child there was in our attic a package of sev- eral pounds of a red powder that my fa- ther told me was “gay head” and was ‘used by mixing with linseed oil for the paint used on the red houses of a gen- eration before. The back of our house was nainted red, as 50 many of the older houses were, and that powder or pigment Wwas' probably left after the work was fione by a fermer owner.

Evm.n( THE :xm nmn - Dear Corner Members: Two ' youmg masons. were building: a brick wall, .the tront wall of & high house. One of them in placing a brick discovered that it was a little thicker on one side than onthe other. 'His coaipanion’ advided -him: to throw it out,. it will make your wail an- true, Ben sald he. “Pooh,” said . Ben, “What difference will such ‘a_triffe ‘as that make?

A CONSTANT SOURCE OF HELP AND REFRESHMENT. Dear Editor and Social Corner Sisters: Yes, what be we com!ng tew? A short time ago I went to a convention in the good oid Nutmeg State and I got there before I started. Like the crooked path the man traveled was so crooked he met himself coming back. and as 1 gianced at the clock in the station, it was enough to make me dizzy to think one had made 80 much time. Well, being it was sych a nice day, T was giad to make some time. Then I started for home in good season thinking how nice to be home early, an.l 1o, and bdehold, every one was in dream- land and so quiet, if the Mister had not met me at the train, think I would have been most afaid to venture home. In making a ditch cut off both ends and you make it longer, but in sime cut off one end and add to tother end, well I don't know as we gain or loose. E. L.-M.: 1 find when taking pictures, the main thing is to be sure of a brizght sunny day. Have the sun behind you as nearly as possible with sun shinning on object to be taken. If you wish a core tain view which cannot be taken with sunm in that positlon it can be taken any othér way if the camera is shalel. The distance depends on the size of tiie Ji- ject taken, etc. If a large housc, for stance and you wish to get the wio'e of it, it will have to be taken at a furth- er distance than smaller objects. era in a shaded place, or room is better. Hope you will have better luck soon. I was glad to read how the Corner started. Those who organized and made 1t possible to have it will never realize hew much good it has and will accom- plish. Many mothers and houseke.-pers are too busy to get out much and the so- clal chats, helpfu! suggestions and rec! ples, and interesting talks take the! minds off of the work for a while anJ the soéial matherings when™ they n b: at- tgnded are a great treat, making many, new acquaintances and pieasant outings. Glad to sce many new members and also S0 many names suggzested thereby en- couraging new memb to join us. When we are in doubt just how to do something we say, “I will ask the Corner Sisters” and wishing to mate something new will try the mood Corn'# recipes that are d and alwavs turn out O. Then in ckness or bereavement the kind sym pathy of many friends bear one up mor than we realize. Lohg live .the Soxal Corner and what its narhe stands for.

WHY A WOMAN IS POPULAR.. | Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: Re. cently one of our sisters raised the ques tion for . discussion. “What constitutes e many views of what ‘por- reallr means; afl will not azren At, the présent time, . strongly In favor of her pop- Others may régard her influ- ence, that leads to financl: very important item, as a man. ‘The question appeals t is she popular, more than * her popular. My ideas and resp to the woman who will deal fair and| even with all her associates. If she ir a teacher of educational work, she wiil give justice where j¢ belongs u3d no fa. vors to undeserved merit. In her busl- ness hours she will aspire to the best el terests of her employer, aiso be con- genlal to those whom she serves. If her place in life ie amid those who suffer or the needy, and where mercy and heln is ‘appealing, the “popular” woman wilt not divide her kindnese. Perhaps the malority of women are| net afflicted with pudlic institutions or corporations, and thus do not mingle with others greatly outside their own homes. This is the housewife, who tobe “honora- bly” pepalar, must not deal in neighbor- hood gossip, or promote contention among these who visit her, or at the calls she may make within her limited territory. -I. maintain -that a popular woman is regarded by her observers, as ome Who always tries to do the right act, at tae right time, unselish, charitabie to others failures, considerate to those of waiker intelleet, and in her dally efforts for all good, ever mindful, through the walk of life -that “we mever pass this way bu: once.” J'LNNXF JIAS nmnmm.
