An’ the carpenters quit, an’ you clean up the muss. An’ the buildin’ is finished from cellar to dome, You’ve got to get busy an’ make it a home. Home must be built out o’ laughter an’ tears. It’s got to be aged by the passin’ of years; It’s got to be perfumed by memories sweet An' carelessly raced thru by glad little feet. An’ tho Mother may fret some when company calls. There’s got to be thumbmarks all over the walls. It’s a job you can’t hurry, or do to a plan— Home isn’t built to the whim of a man. The Lord takes a hand long before you are thru. In building an’ shapin’ the dwellin’ for you; He comes to a place that is faded an’ worn, An’ it glows, as the room where the baby was born. You may guard it from danger as much as you will, Hut sorrow and grief shall come into it still; An’ you shall discover when weepin’ is o’er, The old home is dearer to you than be fore; There shall linger about it the memories rare Of the wonderful spirit that used to be there. Buildin’ a Home! Well, I reckon that’s fun. Because it’s a job that you never get done. Each day brings its changes of gladness or woe, ’Til dearer an’ richer to you it must grow. So fill it with lovin’ an’ laughter an’ tears Until as the home of your souls it ap pears. (Copyright, 1919, by Edgar A. Guest.) A little bit of Safety, To cheer you on your way; A little bit of caution, To keep you day by day. That you should study Safety, And keep it in your mind. And you my friends must not forget The safest thing to do. Be sure you see your path is clear, Then onward you may go. Then stop and look around and think, And to yourself you say, “I never thought that safety Meant so much until today.” John H. Howard Mrs. Harriet Turner, of Dade City, Fla., is the house guest of her daughter, Mrs. Darrell Clarke, of Tallassee Ave nue.
