Dear Soclal Corner Sisters: When we were swall chil‘ren, one of nur best as times as you may remember, was meas- urlog our stick of .candy to see whose was the biggest. Well we've always had 2 very flattering cpinion of our Social Corner editorand writers, naturally., but after reading, the letters complimenting our Corner we are obliged to admit ours IS the biggest stick of candy. There were a few criti ns. I'm sorry | there not more for health: criticism malkes for growth, and that i§ what we are looking for—the growth of the Cor- ner. And vou may be sure of one thing. The: readers of the Corner must cer- tainly have discovered how clever our Corner sisters_are with their orisinal ideas, and how rich in. useful experi- nces, all of which means so much to the home-makers. Our letters are on various subjects from short cuts in housskerning and home decorating to 200d true and tried recipes. It seems 2s if we have home entertainments | which turn houses into homes, and turn drueeerr into creative work.. If you are tried and over wor':- ed, so that pots and pans, also Kettles have grown to take on a hateful as- pect ani blot out all e'se frcm your horizon, then set yourse'f d>wn and read the Corner letters.

Dear Social Corner Edlitor and Sis- ters: Pinned on the wall over my desi: is a little “post card,” which has done one a world of good. It cost only a few cents, but it has helped me over so marny rocky places Inlife'sroad that its real value to me s not to be estimated ; in coln of the republic. It Is a e little thins a sketch done in ‘sepla of a , | roly-poly Dutch boy with his native camals and wind mills behin him, and below Lim this quaint motto: “O der trouble we have vat don't happen yet” And there you have it, the whole sum and sub- Stance of worry in a nutshell. For we don’t worry about the trouble we have, but what is going to happen. We do love our letters in the Corner. All the letters are experiences of so many and I have always heard that two heads are better than one, and after reading our Corner I find that a dozen heads are betfer than two. BTHELYN.

Dear Cornerites: I must plead guilty to being a bit dilatery in my Corner duties but feel I must drop in to say a word on anniversary day. I have been plezsed to see so many and sugh inter- esting letters for a number of wWeeks, and hope they will coninue. More let- ters and a variety of ¢opics make a snap- vy page. It is only the things we thnk about that are improved. Progress al- ways comes because somebody some where has troubled to think about a bet- ter method or way. We find this true wheher it Is apolied £o housework or the h'ghest reaches of science, and it is through such thoughts that our Corner is steadlly improving. There is satisac- tion in watching others advance in the line of prozress where we fail. Before clos'ng I want to thanx Social Corner Member for my dainty ana al- ready much used calendar. Best wishes from & E. D. LOVE AND LOYALTY. Dear Social Corner Pals: #re there two words in any language which have greater brea’th or scope of meaning than love and loyalty? From the first touch .of the tiny, warm hand of the infant babe so power- ful to be, yet so helpless, on through the years of youth, then manhood and wo- manhood there is the bond o lova, ag vet unmeasured, which holds ever trust- ing through sunshine an~ rain, thrsuah health and sicimess binding us as with strong invisible cor’s of hope and faith for all that is uplifting .and best. Could we but turn back for %2 time, I'm gure it would be to the happy hours when the precloug little heads were pil- lowed upon our. breasts with the tiny feet fondly clasped in one hand while the other embraced the little form. The law of life is change so our love must follow the paths of life, and If we have builded a firm foundation our love will. be. lasting and everlasting. Let us seek to be leaders rather than driv- ers of the dear ones entrusted to our care. . Without Jove we cannot have loyalty, for .to_love and be. loved meang loyalty of highest type. The test of loyalty is 3 strict parformanre. of .duties Involved with every task, in sisht, and out of sight. It fs the power.to, deny tempta- tions ‘and_evil impulses which may be iurking near. o4 With the heart full of love and loyalty ome cannot fall in life’s purposes, The goal of high ideals means ever upward and ahead. It bas been sugested in some of the magazines that people. in thess b times turn back and devote at least one hour a day-to play with our chil'ren, 1 would suggest that unless we. already do so, let us deyots every hour every day, to play end work with them ag long as it 1s possible. AR It is time richly spent. Many thanks e7itor for the yellow sl which was rereived Feb. 2. Good Iuc and good health. HOPE COBWEB. oF THE NEEDIEST FIRST. THINKING Soclal Corner.
