BANNER THOUGHTS
IN POETRY
MY DESIRE
I have noticed when a fellow dies, no
matter what he's been
A sainUy chap, or one whose life was
darkly steeped in sin
His friends forget the bitter words
they spoke but yesterday.
And now they find a mutlitude of
pretty things to say.
It may be fine when one is dead to
have folks talk so
To have the flowers to -come in loads,
from relatives you know;
It may be nice to have these things,
for those you leave behind,
But just as far as I am concerned, I
really do not mind.
I fancy when I go to rest some one
will bring to light
Some kindly word or goodly act, long
buried out of sight;
But, if it is all the same to you, just
give to me instead
The boquets while I'm living, and the
knocking when I'm dead.
Don't save your kisses to imprint upon
my marble brow.
While counUess maledictions are
hurled upon me now;
Say just one kindly work to me, while
I mourn here alone,
And don't save all your eulogy to
carve upon a stone.
What do I care when. I'm dead, the
Morning Gazette
Gives me a write-up, with a cut in
mourning borders set?
It will not flatter me a bit, no matter
what is said.
So kindly throw you boquets now, and
knock me when I'm dead.

Hand Occupation With an Envelope
By Jenny B. Merrill, Ph.' D.
It will interest mothers to know
how much can be done with an enve
lope and pair of scissors in the way
of providing diversion, occupation and
even instruction for children. These
hints apply to different ages. The
first eight may be used with many
children of five or six years of age,
the rest with children from six to ten.
1. Cut-out the stamp-neatly from
the corner of an envelope, also cut
out the post-mark. Explain why there
is a jjost-mark. There may be more
than one.
2. Keep stamps after cutting out,
using them to make pretty borders
and other designs. Mingle stamps of
different colors.
3. Draw on the inside of the en
velope the train that carries letters to
us, or the rural delivery wagon, or the
automobile.
4. Cut off one or more clean corners
of the envelope in the shape of a
triangle. Each triangle may be used
as a book-mark by slipping it on the
corner of a leaf. Decorate these tri
angles with simple designs. Older
children may paint a flower and
younger children may mount a pretty
little picture on each triangle.
5. Cut an envelope into pieces us
ing the crease as guides. Cut several
and form designs with the pieces.
Each piece may be colored with cray
ons, paint, or colored pencils.
6. Fold the envelope so as to form a
basket or any other object you
choose.
7. Draw a door and windows on a
long envelope. Press the corners of
the envelope out so that it appears
to be a house. The doors and win
dows may also be cut so as to open

Paint Creates Prosperity
Save the Surface and You Save All
"The "run down" house (there is one near you) is fast
going to ruin merely because the owner unwisely neglects
to keep it protected with paint.
It costs more not to paint than to paint. Paint saves
the surface and protects the building from" sun, rain, frost
and varying weather conditions that bring destruction.
Prosperity demands the protection of all exposed sur
faces with good paint
gives lasting protection and beauty.
It costs less because it takes less and lasts longer.

8. Play postman. Make a mail bag
to swing over the shoulder.. Make a
letter box in which to mail letters. A
child may deliver letters to the dif
ferent members of the family. He
should be made to appreciate this
duty as letters are often very import
ant. There is an ethical lesson here
on responsibility.
9. Learn to open a close.d envelope
neatly with a paper cutter without
injuring the contents. This can some
times be done by rolling a pencil care
fully under the flap.
10. Open out the whole, envelope
and notice its shape, then try to make
one of the same size; first measure
the paper to be used, place the en
velope on the paper, trace it and
then fold carefully.
11. Practice, if old enough, address
ing an envelope to a father, a moth
er, to an aunt, a cousin, or a friend.
Also mount a stamp in the upper
right hand corner leaving a white
margin around the stamp. Explain
the importance of using the correct
corner.
12. Write the name of the man
whose face is engraved on the one
cent stamp, the two, and others if you
'have stamps of other denominations.
13. Write the names of the colors
of these stamps under the men's
names. Think why these particular
men are honored in this way. Why
is Washington's head on a two-cent
stamp rather than on a five-cent one?
Even quite young children are &U
