GOSsIP Dear Soclai Corner Sisters: I have read and enjoyed the letters of your Corner for some time and 1 finally knock at the door for admission. I have read & great many helpful letters which have been a benefit to me. The topic of my letter is “Gossip.” Oh that awful word? It's too bad that we have such a word in the English language and still worse that we are all inclined to indulge. It is I think more commonly found I country towns and villages, I myself live In a village and when I pass along the streets and see two women with shawls thrown over their heads having a confidential back yard chat I really think “gossip”. T certainly believe that a person should @o as near right as possible and avold the very appearance of evil but do you know, dear sisters, some stories .start from absolutely nothing at all. As each one of us has a finger in the pie we do our share, now don’t we? I can remem- ber a certain woman in onr neighbor- hood whom I always disliked. She never did me any harm, but she was al- ways telling some shocking story about some one and she knew somo great sin which their great grandmother had com- mitted way back in the dark ages, if they were perfect. 1 don't remember that T ever heard her speak a good e where we can go t0 avoid hearing goesip? Try the village post office, store or garage, and you'll hear your share, and suppose we stop te. g0 ts the store. Seated upon old barrels and eracker boxes you'll find men and women from 16 to 60, all talking about Josh. Poor Josh is an ab- sent member tonigh{, and I'm sure his ¢éars must burn. They are all talking at once and the women are shaking their wise heads knowingly, “Well, I do de- clare, 1 never krew that of him” says Betty White, an oid maid of several sum- mers. Finally we learn the cause of all the excitement. - Betty saw Josh's wifs go away on ihe fivs o'clock train and as she bid & scit case she knew that she was going for a weck at least. Well just about dusk, Joe was coming by the house and thought he'd go in knowing Josi's was away, thought he might teel lonesome, Jvst then . woman ap- peared and went right up to the door and knocked, and wouid you believe it Josh came Lo the door and kissed her and of course he (Joe) couldn’t see nothing more but ain't that awful for a man to cacry on 80 when his wife Is away?

First Wwe came to Chesterfield, a small but pretty place, then to Salem and Colehest- er, a larger place with many fine resi- dences, and then passing on to Glaston- bury, We then saw the large fields of tobacco.

No pen could write or tongue could tell how ®eautiful the rose garden and flower beds. were. We drove by the shield and flag of flowers as we sped over the red roads of the park. I'agree with Jim, I never saw such pond lilies. We pass- ed by the big oak, it was very large. We then met a party of friends from Boston and we all agreed it was timé to go to the hotel for dinmer, which was very fine. from the salad to the cream and the best of coffee. Then we all went to our dear old Capitol made a trip to the dome. After leaving the elevator it was a steep climb to the top, but it was well worth the climb as we looked out over the clty the large and ‘high buildings that God had taught man to build, the sky, sun and singing -birds, all spoke of the wisdom of God.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: A sort of a woman—was one day strolling carelessly through the bird department ©Of a certain store in Boston. Suddenly she stopped short, and looked hard at the sight which met her eyés. A hun- dred wooden bird cages, each with a. hundred birds: crowded closely togeth-| | { er, fluttering, flying and creeping in ap- parently great discomfort, were stacked egainst the wall like 50 much cord wood, making & veritable pandemonium of fear a3d sound. This woman has a ‘heart as big as all outdoors, when it comes to a ques- tion of sickmess or discomfort for any of the little feathered tribe; and every fibre in her body responded to the plais tive vries of misery from those unhap- py birds—she had loved birds from childhood, had studied them—thelr ways and needs—whenever she saw a chance, and the sight of these ten thousand helpless creatures who had come all the way from Germany,-as the foreman af- terwards admitted, without the clean- ing of either their cages or their bodies fired her indignation. She hunted up the manager of the Store, then she explained a few ithings to him In so cffective a fashion that in & surprisingly shert space of time the condition of those bdirds was materiaily changeé. Their cages were washed, thy Dbirds given baths and proper food placed in their receptacles. Today tie importation of canaries and’ other singing birds from Hartz moun- tains and the peasant provinces of Ger- many is carried under rigid rules pre- &cribing proper feeding and dafly bath for every individual bird. ‘While In there she observed a tiny ca- nary beating his wings feebly egainst the cage bars. His head drooped, his eyes wers dull. “That bird is sick,” de- clared my friend after’ one keen glance, “why dom't you do something for ¢ little thing atety ?* “YWhat shall we do?' asked the floor-. man, heiplessly. *That bird has an attack of asthma and he neefls to be placed in the dark. He won’t wheezé so badly then and he musn't have any but will have to be 'prepared’ by putting it in a cup, pouring enongh water over it to cover, and let it stand all night. In the morning drain off the water through 2 small sieve; let a little fresh water flow over it, and dry with a cloth. This process takes .out all the dust and chaif present in dry seed and heips the asth- matic bird wonderfully. That was a few years ago. Toflay my friend owns one of the oddest little hos- pitals and bird -boarding houses. In the world, she has patients by the score.

After a shortywhile, clean the well with kerosene. not mind the lacquer coming off.

Dear Social Corner Writers: After| being tardy so long, I must come to the front and thank Golden Glow for the deliclous box she sent me. It is good to be remembered.
