take notice. -•■ _

good form in both batting and field
ing, the Presbyterian sisters walked
away with the game by a score ol
29 to 17, proving, that thet Methodists
can take a good walloping as well as

: demands. Among-the spectators wen
doctors, lawyers, dentists, merchants
and farmers who cheered the players
on when they were not too 'convulsed
... with laughter.

TKB A®$ OF HOME-MAKING
- - >V-;'
r-'v ^ C&rfotte Makepeace)
“When Wd Consider the art of doing
a thing, it does not necessarily place
that goal on some high level which
■we as ordinary human beings could
never hope to attain. The Art of
Home-Making merely means the sim
plest way of"making a home with the
assurance of good results.
Many books have been written on
this subject. A great many of them
deal with the essential difference be
tween a house and a home. Many a
man who pay* rent all his life owns
his own house; and many a family
his successfully saved for a home only
to find itself at last with nothing but
a house. The building in which we
live has nothing to do with the qual
ity of a home. Many families know
more about] the real meaning of the
word after having lived in shacks
than is ever found in a palatial ap
pearing mansion of the very rich.
If I were telling you tonight about
the Art of Covering the Bottoms of
Chairs, your first mental question
would be: “What must we have to
work with ?“ The same thing holds
true with Home-Making. Not lumber
and bricks pr etone—but things very
different in nature must go into this
home of ours. Six things are required:
1. Truth must be the architect.
2. Our home will be upholstered with
tidiness.
.3. It will be warmed by affection.
4. lighted by cheerfulness.
5. Industry will be the ventilator, re
- liewing the atmosphere and bring
v ing in new strength day by day.
. 6. (As a protecting canopy and glory,
nothing will do except the bless
ing of God.
Thera are six essentials—not one
of them.coat a penny. They are all
things to be secured from within our
own selves. ■»
We read In the newspapers about
kidnappers stud murderers—and then
we wonder just what is behind this
apparent, crime wave. Hans Christian
Anderson, a very famous present day
novelisrtj phrticula r 1 y of children's
stones, recently made a survey oX
criminal c&se&yr and his reports show
that over 80, pet cent of our crimin
als come froth Unsympathetic homes.
Homes where, failures were never un
derstood—homes where no love enter
ed into child -correction, ft is human
nature that when we succeed We want
our home onS?; to know first because ■
they-will be the'^fratito rejoice at«lr'
success. Whan we fail, we go to the >,
same source, because, they are the
first to offer their’; sympathy and give
encouragement for another day. And -
those members of a family who fail
to get sympathy and encouragement
at home, are the: same ones who keep
our jails and reformatories filled to
overflowing. •'
In closing there is one other point
I want to bringto your minds—Hap
piness—it seems to me that no task
can become an art unless the worker
is happy in their work.* Hie art of
pointing is attained when the artist
feels a joy in his work—school teach
ing is an art when happiness enters
into the work. Arid so it is with home.
The outstanding feature of home- >
making is that throughout , it all we
shall have a happy atmosphere.
Washington Irving once -made the
following statement concerning the
happiness of homes?—-“It was the
policy of the good ojd gentleman to
make his children feel that home was
the happiest' place m the world; and
I value this delicious home-feeling as
one of the choicest gifts a parent can
bestow.” !;:0 -
