CARE OF CHILDREN.
A SONG. FOR MOTHER
Sing a song for Mother, for all the
good she's done,
Since the dawn's uprising ,till the set
of sun.
Roused her sleeping honeeholdy saw
that they were fed.
Some to work, seine to school anti
one to noon -day bed.',
Made the home so pretty, tidy, clean
and sweet,
Slippers placed in readiness for some-
one's weary feet.
Joined the 'children's laughter;,, wiped
their tears away,
Listened to the details of someone's
trying day.
Encetuaged hearts grown fearful,
giving smiling praise
nd 'never s""aid a single word 'bout
baby's trying ways. ..
Mg a song for mother, whose loving
tasks are done,
eiy day throughout the years from
dawn till set, of sun.
A MOTHER'S FAREWELL
Let not your heart be altogether
lonely,
Naw that the last reluctant words
are said,
take away my face and voice, but
]eave you
My heart instead.
e ur separate Iives will only make
love dearer,
And beautiful as distant mountains
are,
Vhen all the little hills erase each
other
And leave no scar.
or every westward going wind is
my wind,
Dawning I send you, when niy sun
is hlwh
nd all God's lovely stars are ours
together,
Good-bye! Good -by -el

HUCKLEBERRIES AND HONEY
The berry -pickers 1rnew'where the bu-
shes were purple -blue with fruit. Often
we saw them,, women and children,
with leveled pails
leaving the foot -hills as we were on
our way to Little Otter lake at sun-
down.
I rememberthat first summer in the
mountains:
it was a lingering boy from the sand
flats,
who shply showed me that hollow in
:he pine,
where the wild bee hoarded' honey.
Pine -needles and damp earth washed
in heaps
away from the roots of that tree.
Prom a near -by stump we reached the
first branch;
our bare feet crackled the dry twigs
as we climbed nearer the coveted
prize.
My voice halted, nay eyes shut; I
tasted
new honey from fingers stained with
huckleberries..
—Helen Jones.
'THE UNCONQUERABLE
In spring there come the daffodils,
Gold flocks between the trees,
Where pale blue mist blows smokily;
And who - shall vanquish these.
Ah, well we love the nightingale;
In moonlight at the edge of dark,
He shall not know defeat.
In russet autumn solitudes
Warm arches hold the sun;
On genre slopes of forest lawn
The little rabbits run.
Along the ringing frosty lane
The holly berries shine
In scarlet, joyous bravery,
And these shall be a sign--•
Brave, unforgotten, happy things!
Dear love of field and bough,
Think you our English hearts and
hands
Could ever fail you now?
Westrnount —Geraldine Brietzeke.

In nursery love and fireside lore

The formula for good eating is
simple. Below is a list of the pro-
tective foods repuired in your daily
'Nutri -thrift' menu. This list is given
by Dr. McHenry, head of the De-
partment of Nutrition at the Univer-
sity Of
niver-sityof Toronto. Other food to make
up the energy requirement may be
chosen according to taste, but those
listed here should come FIRST, if at
all possible:
3 glasses of milk; 6 slices of
whole wheat or enriched flour
bread; 1 serving of meat, or fish
or lentils; .1 egg or serving of
cheese; 1 serving of potatoes; 1
serving of yellow or green leaf
vegetables; 1 servingof tomatoes
or tomato juice; 1 serving of
fruit; 1 serving of whole grain
product (cereal, porridge or
pudding).
Canadian homemakers know the
importance of thrift in the kitchen
and so are on the alert to buy care-
fully and waste nothing. One of the
best ways to avoid. waste is to serve
well -cooked appetizing foods with
"eye -appeal" so there will be noth-
ing left on the plate. . For example,
a roast of lamb carefully cooked, so
that it does not dry out, will be eaten
to the last scrap. Dry, tasteless

"The Watcher—Mother
She always wanted to, watch for us,
Anidous if we were late,
In winter by the window ,
Li summer by the gate.
And though we mocked her tenderly
Who had such foolish care,
The long way home would seem more
safe ,
Because she waited there.
Hed thoughts were all so full of ns—
She never could forget
And so I think that where she is
She must be waiting yet.
Waiting till we conte home to her

The four sons of Iter. D. G. Camp-
bell Morgan are all ministers. Recen-
tly when the family was together a
viistor asked the youngest son which
one of the Morgan family was • the
greatest preacher. With no hesita-
tion he replied "Mother." How true
that is in the majority of cases!
A little boy was told by his Mother
that it was God who made people
good. "Yes, I know it is God" he re-
plied "but Mother helps a lot,"
So many people of the present day
can say with John Ruskin: "Every
greatness that there has been in any
thought of mine, what ever I have
done in my life, has simply been due
to the fact that when I was a child
my mother daily read with me a part
of the Bible."

!Salvationists to Appeal
to Public for Funds
"Because the Canadian Government
has ruled, that there can be no united
camapign by The National War Ser-
vice Organizations this year, and,
further ,seeing the Government has,
decided to finance from the Federal
Treasury only the wartime work of
these Organizations; therefore, The
I Salvation Army will find it necessary
to appeal to the public for funds next
Fall in order to carry on its regular
home Service Program," Commis-
sioner Benjamin Orames announced.
"This simply means we practically
revert to the policy and practice
which existed prior to 1941, when at
the request of the Government, The
Salvation Army joined with the other
War Service Organizations in one
United Campaign in raising both war
and Home Service requirements,
Which was held in March 1941."
The Canadian Red Cross is asked
for help of all kinds. Christopher
Williams, a seven-year •old Briton,
asked them' to find his ginger colored
rabbit named "Rupert" They did.
Less titan three per cent of the
total value of goods shipped overseas
by the Canadian Red Cross last year
was lost by enemy action or strand-
ings.
"Tn these Critical times The Salva
tion Army will continue to fit in and
cooperate with the Dominion authori-
ties to the fullest possible extent;
hence, in' accordance with the Govern-
ment's ruling, we cannot raise 1942
funds by a national campaign as we
had done' up to 1941. Instead we in-
tend to conduct local appeals next
Fall in all those communities in Cana-
da where our work has been carried
on for many years, and hope that our,
kind friends and supporters will give
the saint assistance and co-operation
that they have in the past. We know
they are all just as anxious to see our
work continue as weare."
