Granny Was a Clipper
Granny was a clipper. There was never a shortage ofscis-
sors in her home for Granny never sat down to read a news-
paper or magazine without a pair of scissors in her lap.
Seldom a day passed that Granny couldn't find something
to clip. Maybe it was a poem or an article about some author,
which would later be slipped into a book by that author on her
bookshelf. It was always interesting to find this background
either pasted or pinned into a book when you took it from the
shelf to read.
As she snipped the clippings
were stuffed into her apron
pocket, or if the apron had
been removed they were tuck-
ed inside her dress at the neck.
It was a standing family joke
that when Granny undressed at
night her treasures showered
over the floor. Eventually they
found their place in her desk
drawer, which was strictly
"hands off" to the kids.
Granny made many friends
in many places, since she was
always kind, helpful and inter-
ested in other people and their
problems. It is no wonder then
that she was forever finding
little news items about friends
and acquaintances -- births,
their achievements, pictures,
weddings and of course obitu-
aries.
But Granny was like m-st of
us. She never managed to get
all the items into her scrap-
books. Oh, she got a lot of
them in, but many more were
stuffed into envelopes or pin-
ned together with common pins,
awaiting the time when she
could sit down and sort them
out.
It would be hard to find any,
thing specific in Granny's col-
lection if you were really look-
ing for it, but that yellowed
hodge-podge is full of golden
thoughts, so typical of Granny.
Looking through some of
them the other night we came
upon the poem, "To All
Parents" , on this page. Read
it. This is one we all should
clip!

Here's Health
Canadian teeth are in danger
of becoming nothing but a sex
symbol, according to a critic of
North American cuisine. Too
many soft, over -cooked foods —
the kind dentists call "impact-
ing foods" — and not enough
fresh, crisp -cooked or raw foods
fail to give our teeth and gums
the exercise they should have.
The obvious answer is more
lettuce and leafy green salads.
(The world's hastiest eater can-
not wolf an unchewed mouthful
of lettuce!) Crisp, raw fruits
and leafy vegetables, such as
lettuce, are "detergent" foods.
Say our Canadian dentists, "The
$ O
physical character of food plays
an important role in keeping
the mouth clean and in provid-
ing the muscles used for chew-
ing with the exercise they need
.leafy vegetables are among
foods strongly recommended,"
There's no doubythat all
kinds of lettuce are good for us.
The big problem many home-
makers face is how to get the
quick and nervous eater to relax
and enjoy a nice big plate of
lettuce salad. Here's where
West Coast homemakers are
very smart indeed: The salad
comes first, to be enjoyed
when the appetite is keenest.

TO ALL PARENTS it
"1'11 lend you for a little time a child of Mine," He said,
For you to love the while he lives and mourn for when
he's dead,
It may be six or seven years, or twenty-two or three,
But will you, till I call him back, take care of him for Me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you, and shall his stay
be brief
You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief.
"1 cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there I want this child
to learn.
I've looked the wide world over in my search for teachers
true
And from the throngs that Crowd llfe's lanes I have select-
ed you.
Now will you give him all your Love, nor think the labor
vain,
Nor hate Me when S come to call to take him back again?"
I fancied that I heard them say: "Dear Lord, Thy will be
done!
For all the joy Thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we'll
run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness, we'll love him while we
may,
And for the happiness we've known forever grateful stay;
But shall the angels call for him much sooner than we've
planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to under-
stand."

a brush train caught up by two
self roses. Her elbow -length
veil of silk illusion was held by
a headpiece of self roses and
lily of the valley. Her bouquet

white carnations.
