Cottage Rugs The Year Around Floor Covering for Any Heme Cottage Rugs are not for cottages and bungalows alone— they are suitable for any home where small rugs can be uséd to good advantage. They can be thrown around here and there, and give a cozy look to any room in the home. The most important feature of these rugs is, they can be washed and look just as fresh as new, no matter how much hard’wear they are subjected to, and there is a pat- 2 tern and color for every taste. All in all, they are the meost economical rug to buy for the year round home, be- sides they cost so little. 24x48, 98¢ each—30x60, $1.98 THE H. C.

The patrons of the dining hall at dinner Saturday saw the need of this fmprovement, some being compelled to move their seats during the heavy shower, as it leaked down upoit the tables and chairs. Matters of an carlier issuing of programs and advertis- ing the camp meeting were discussed. The records were read by Secretary Bak- er and the meeting adjourned.

Have you fust wasted it of have you made the best possible usé of it. Whathte it 56 harpened that You wert parmitted to devote it entirely to vlay or whether vou were requiréd to give more or less time to work? Good wholesome fun doesm't mean a wasted vacation. M is expéotsd that % will be a nlaytime and that the childebh will make the bést use of it bo that when sehool opens they will e ax ready and ager to plunge into their sehool work as they weee to ewtar with enthusiasm ints the varibus sports and gamés for beys and girls during the summer. While there are these who have besn glving the'r wholé attention tb play, pic- nies, visits and auto teips, there arée thoze who have been devotink miueh time to actual achievements in.oné direction or another. Circumstantes play an impor- tant part in this eonmection quite the same as does ambition. The summer of pléasurs can by ne means be considered wasted if in the va- rious teips and visits oppértunity has been taken to ees and think, to study nature and appiy knowledge aiready ob- tained in acquiring more. Travel in it- eelf is a great efucator and whather one go8s to the seashors or t& the moum- taing, to the city or to the esuntry, thers s always the chafiee of adding to yéur tund of valyable intormatien.
