Proverbs '3:1-0; 4;10.15, 15.10,
Memory '''Selection: Frust in
the Lord with all thine heart;
and lean not unto thine own un.
dorstendiug. In all thy ways
acknowledge 121m, and he shall
direct thy paths, Pre/verbs 3:5.6,
This
i irst tlessons with ant sub
from the book of Proverbs,Wis-
dam, as used in this book, has
a moral value, "The fear of the
Lord is the beginning of know-
ledge,' 1:7 "Happy is the man
that flndeth Wisdom" 37.3, He is
wise who wades in God's weys.
The memory verse contains a
remaricable promise, It calls for
faith in the Lord in preference
to self-will, The complete com-
mittal of the self to God insures
Divine guidance, Worry and
fear disappear in the presence
of such faith,
Young people should read and
reread prayerfully the book of
Proverbs! Here the good way
and the evil way are elearlyset
forth, We are warned that the
way of the Wicked is as dark-
ness, We are advised, "Avoid it,
pass not by it, turn from it,
and pass, away," The warnings
are applied to the many phases
of temptation that come to us
in every day living.
On the other hand "the path
of the just is as the shitting
light, that shineth more ` and
more unto the perfect day. "One
sees the truth of this as he visits
the aged. The man who has
disipated his life in following
after the shiny baubles of world-
ly pleasures is restless in old
age, The godly have serenity
and peace. Though, our outward
man perish, yet the inward man
is renewed day by day. One
youth said in' excusing his un.
godly, way of living, "Well, one
must,pOiv, his wild oats," Does
he? Let him remember that
'Whatsoever a man soweth, that
shall he also reap." ` Galatians
0:7, It is better to take God's
way which is 411e way of wis-
dom.

Q If a man is wearing a
very soft hat, is it really neces-
sary for him to tip this to a
woman by removing it from his
head — or Isn't merely touching
the brim all right in this ease?
A. A man who only touches
his hat is just "going through
the motions" of courtesy. To be
correct, he should take his hat
by the crown, instead of the
brim, lift it slightly from his
head, and then replace It.
Q. Which is correct form,

Q, Is it proper for a man to
say, "I am very glad to have

own, If she says nothing, a nod
of the head and a pleasant "good -
by" is all that is necessary..

Making Money
From The Weather
Certain people swear by
Marion Hogan, the wind and
weather .woman. Shapely, blue-.
eyed Marion is head of a firm
named Weather Services Inc.,
which has offices" in the new
John Hancock Building in Bos=
ton.
Her.enterprise is one:of grow=
ing prosperity, the result of
years, of hard work in selling
a service which at first seemed
less than useful to the busi-
nessmen she approached. . Yet
. Marion now has regular cus-'
tomers.. who . say they would
never again dispense with her
valuable services.
Take the case of the Rice
Bakeries in Baltimore. Like any
other bakery, the Rice, company
directors were never certain
how their sales would run from
;day to day. Consequently, they
had to bake many more items
than were actually sold, and
their losses with the left -overs,
which more often than not
were unsaleable, ran to hun-
dreds of 'dollars weekly.,
The liakery management sus-
pected that a certain amOunt of
the variations in tbeir sales was
• caused by the daily weather.
But they did not know how to
overcome this difticulty,
Miss Hogan and her scientific
staff ' undertook to analyze the
bakery operations in terms of
all the • daily weather tactors
from fluctuations of temperature
to direction of wind.
They reduced these data to .
a set of categories, each spa-
rifled by a single number, and
ate accompanying table Mid the
bakers -what the nunnbers meant •
terms. of daiiy sales expecta-
tions.
Miss Bogan telephoned the
bakery every morning and gave
them a forecast Category num
bet .for the day. The' bilkers
then hsmted up the expected •
sales in their'. tables and planned
their production accordingly.
They found that by following
her instructlens they were able
to cut their leftover losses by
30 per cent, Marion's ahnest une
canny skill h a s so impressed
thenthat they want to continue
bar service indefinitely.

Practical Jokers
Bury Venus
Practical jokers have been up
to their silly tricks again. A
recent victim is an Isle of Wight
railway ' porter, about whom
someone started the rumour
that he was dead. It spread
rapidly and the forty -nine-year
old porter had to advertise in
the local paper that he was
alive.
Dozens of people called on his
housekeeper to offer condolence.
About fifty a day called at the
railway station to say: "Sorry
to hear about. dear ,old Fred.
Even the porter's son was
rung up anonymously in Somer-
set and told to hurry home be-
cause his father was dead.

FARM FRONT
For acme yea's scientists at
the University of Cenneticut
have been experimenting with
a high-energy, low -fibre ration
for laying hens, The latest re-
port shows that the results e3'e
still very good.
Hens still produce more eggs
On less feed, and weigh more
at the end of the laying period
when they get the high -corn
ration, then they did on a stand-
ard ration. That's 13 to 16 more
eggs apiece on 13% less feed.
* * *
What's more, their pen litter
was dryer, indicating less water
secretion. And egg hatchability
was higher, too.

The main changes that the
scientists made in the standard
formula to get the high-energy
ration were to substitute ground
yellow corn for ground oats and
half the wheat middlings. They
also doubled the syobean oil
- meal and meat scrap, and added
20 grams of niacin (nicotinic
acid).
If you're thinking of juggling
your own rations around this
fall, here are the "recipes" for
the two that were compared:
Ground yellow corn 713 1223
Ground oats 400
Standard wheat 500 250
(middlings)

Meat scrap (50%) 50 100

The high energy feed may
cost a bit more per hundred
but more eggs on less feed, and
heavier hens, usually mien
that it's cheaper in the long rust.

You can get up to 20% more
eggs from your Leghorns just
by "dubbing" them as pullets,
Wyoming tests show. To dub,
just out off the comb and wat-
ties of the pullet with a pair
Of scissors, snipers or knife, at
10 to 12 weeks. Dub cockerels et
