I wonder what you'd say to me today. .
If we could only talk across the years.
I wonder if you'd care to stop your play
To let me tell you of my hopes and fears.
Would you be pleased to know what J have won, -V
What progress I havemade, or would you see M
So many other things I should nave aonei v
Would y&X be just a bit ashamed of me?
.' 1 wonder If you'd find your boyhood dreams
Through my endeavors now are coming, true.
ur wouia you say my present siauun swans ,
Far" short of what ambition promised you?
Have I accomplished In a manly way '
Those tasks you set for me so long ago?
If we could talk across the years today v ,
Would you be proud of me and tell me sot'
Fd like to let you know, how much I prize
The opportunities I from here. .
I wonder if vou fullv realize .
How kind you were In choosing my career.
I wish that I could call you and confess,
I My boyhood, just how much I owe to you;
Yours were the wistful dreams of happiness.
Mine is the joy of making them come true!

That little round cop

haa come to have a new
significance to me since
I discovered the marvel

culosis that your pennies
and mine, combined with
millions of other Christ

are supporting.
If Chicago's impres

to its power1 is the un

This new and growing
respect for the one-cent

Interesting health projects. In which children would delight, my mind went
back to the dull, stereotyped physiology and hygiene Instruction of my
school days, which happily are no more. I mean, of course, the stereotyped
physiology and so-called hygiene
The most vivid and painful recollection was that of an effort to memorize
step by step the circulation of the bloofl tnrougn tne system, it was an
theory and no practice In those days, and, if the pupils could accurately
trace the circulation. It mattered little whether a desire for pure, red blood.

That thousands of pieces of health literature and posters are sent to
