Troop happened to be present and ad-
ministered first aid, putting. the arm in
splints and greatly, easing the intense
pain. When the doctor who was called

upon his work, which he said wee one
of the best pieces of first aid he had
ever seen.

"An aristocratic old lady in the

very special occasions.
"One day she gave a dinner party.

was served, a tousled head was stuck

What makes a boy steal green
apples?
W
Why .does a boy like to jump?
These are some of the ,questions put
forward when the topics of recreation
came up at 'tihe All -Canada Children's
Week Conference that was recently
held in Toronto.
The importance of recreation for
both young and cid de 'becoming more
and more apparent, but just how the
recreation should be carried out is
still a poser.
Dr. Lamb, Professor of P'hysiciali
Education, McGi'i1 University, Mont-
real, says that recreation should as
far as possible be supervised, else it
may be carried on in a way that is
not good for the individual or for the
conimundty in which he lives.
There are some interesting features
of this subject. What makes a child
play, for instance. The consensus of
opinion is that play is an expression
of the pursuits of our armee-toes away
back to primitive pian. The child's
-liking for jumping; climbing and
chasing things "is an evidence- of the
selvage state. The oblides liking for
bolls and 'arrows indicates Ms ances-
tral associations with forest and
stream, caves, hunting ground, etc.
Besides, elle , bind of play a child is
interested in, shows something of his
racial development.
Why do boys as a rule like to steal
green apples? Dr. Lamb thinks it is
mostly due to their love for excite-
ment, especially if in getting the ap-
ples they have to outwit some crabby
oI:d man who :guards the orchard.
One thing to be kept in mind in
preparing recreation facilities for
children,' is that some sort of super-
vision is best. In this way truthful-
ness can be encouraged instead of
deceit, kindness instead of cruelty,
justice' instead of injustice, honest
instead of dishonesty and courage in-.
stead of cowardice. b
Ih eves kind of recreation ecreatfon;tfie point
to be kept in mind is participation
rather than observation, In other
words it is much better for all the

Patience was the subject of the

her point she drew on the blackboard
a picture of a small boy sitting en the
bank of a stream. fishing.
"You see this- lad, children," she
said, beaming on her pupils. He's
fishing. Well, even the pleasure of
fishing requires patience. He must be
prepared to sit and wait."
For a little while longer she dilated
on the beauties of being patient. Then
came the time for her to test her work.
'Now, then, can any of you boys tell
me what we need most when we go

These nutritious grains are carefully selected and scientifioaliY con-

The 20 -hour baking process partially pre-digests the starch and

Try a dish of crisp and crunchy Grape -Nuts with good rich milk

Will Tea Disappear?
It may surprise you to learn that tea
and coffee canteen exactly the earns)
ingredients.
The most impoeta.nt substance found
in tea is theinet and in coffee, caffeine.
But thelne and caffeine are the same
thing..- Theine—or caffeine- is an al-
kaloid, and is found in other plants be-
sides tea and coffee. One of these is
called the yaupon, cr Christmas -berry
tree, whiicli:.' r Bess w In enormous
quantities • in the South - Aquatic States
of America. -
The Indians brewed a beverage from
this plant long before the first white
men sot foot on the American con-
tinent, and during he Civil War it was
used frequently as a:substitute for tea.
The Christmas -berry tree contains all
the qualities which go to make tea
valuable; that is to ray, It is agree-
ably stimulating.
Now the United States Plant Bureau
is "experimenting with it, to discover
whether it oan be grown veld cured in
the same manner employed for the tea -
plant. If these tests are sucoessfur tea
may deappear for the Christmas -berry
tree will furnish an equally palatable
and refreshing drink at much less cost,

Navigating the Life Ship.
Iu bad weather,, when there are heavy
fogs and storms at sea} the navigator
is obliged to take his`' bearings fre-
quently to know where he is. If he
doesn't do this, he can -not intelligent-
ly direct his course, and is liable to
wreck his ship by running onto hidden
racks.
Every man is the navigator of a life
shdp, and if he doesn't early form the
habit of taking his bearings, to find out
wihere he is and whither he is going,
he may, in middle fife, find his ship
stranded on the reeks of failure. If
you would save yourself from- ship-
wreck take your bearings frequently.
