I cast them one by one aside and found beneath thein ail A. homely country paper, blurred with ink and somewhat small, That drew my full attention to its columns up and down Thelittle weekly paper that they print• in my home town., This country paper always tells of things in quiet tone; It deals not with the outside world, but topics all it ,own; It tells about the folks who visit in and out of town; That meat is soaring upward or that eggs are going down; • That some old chum is married, or a ■ life-long friend has died; MU The stork has paid a visit and two ■ hearts are filled with pride. $ This paper strikes a tender chord when far away you roam. For one is always glad to hear what's going on at home. ■ ■ 111®2®®11111®®11111®®! BLUEVALE Mr. and Mrs. Allan Ramsay of Chesley, also Mrs. David Ramsay, called at. thehome of Geo. Thornton Sunday.

Webster, The Tailor, up stairs over the4Advance-Times Of- fice. • AN OLD LANDMARK IN •WING HAM It's short on punctuation and in spelling I admit; Some letters, too, are upside down; it's smeared with'ink a bit. Its face is worn and haggard and the news is mostly late, Sometimes because the make-up man forgets to change the date. It's welcome to 'my office for it brings me joy and rest. It lets me live an hour each week with friends I've loved the best. It brings a homelike feeling, and I'm happy to confess, I was once their printer's devil—sett- in' type and feedin' press. Fred Keller Dix. THE LITTLE ROAD TO NO- WHERE The little road to nowhere Is the road foryou and me, The little road to nowhere That runs beside the sea, Between the sea and mountains Where birds the silence break, The little road to nowhere Is the road we long to take. The little road to nowhere That lies beside a stream, The little road to nowhere That leads us to a dream; To where a dream awaits us, A dream we've sought in vain, The little road to nowhere That runs past niead and plain., It runs past lake and mountains, Past farm and town and tree, It leads to where the sunset Is soundless in the sea; ' r To where no envy whispers, No grief or bate can mar, The little road to nowhere; Where peace and silence are. This world is far too earnest, Is far too grim and cold, Too full of petty warfare, Too bitter and too old. But we'll be young forever! Because so well we know The little road -to nowhere, The road all wise folks go! MAKE HOME HAPPIER Laughter and song and wholesome play should have a place in the home. Certainly they do something toward making it happy. Save up the pleas- ant things to tell when you get home. Those who have been in the home all day will especially, enjoy the breath of pleasant things from the outside. When Mary comes home from work and sits down to eat her supper, ev- ery face is turned toward her in Pleased expectation. There are the pleasant experiences she had in the of- fice, pretty things she saw and jokes that create laughter. This ' simple ser- vice that some of us can render the home is sometimes not rendered through sheer carelessness. "No, I never heard it," a mother said when a visitor asked her if that song her daughter hat sung at several enter- tainments"was not the merriest little thing she 'ever heard. The daughter had not purposefully kept the song, from her home folks, She had simp- ly not thought about them.
