There is an old saying that "fire is a good servant, but a bad master." Fire cooks our food, heats our homes in winter, makes steam to drive our engines and serves us in a thousand ways. But it is also fire tdat burn,s our houses, stores and factories, de- stroys our forests and evert year costs many people their lives. Fire cannot be trusted. There is no flame so small but what it may become a disastrous conflagration if careless people forget its danger. Make ev- ery week of the year one of fire prevention. Abey-Wells Wedding.

It was: long ago and supper was eerved • in the basement of old Melville Church. It was like other seektle in two ways. The children had a fine time and plenty of good things to eat. There was a difference, how- ever, although no one can give any reason why it should have been. Well, there were sandwiches made of bread and butter and noney. A waiter took a plate of these and when at the front row of little peas, quiet- ly said, "Honey sandwiches." Then the child nearest her repeated "Hon- ey sandwiches" and then another farther down the row, "Honey Sand- wiches." I am sure if you hed peen how quickly that plate was emptied you would wonder, as I have often done, why the children are not given honey sandwiches for lunch at school. Try some. G.A.
