No man was ever meanly born


No man was ever meanly born 
About his cradle is the wonderful miracle of life 
He may descend into the depths 
He may live in infamy and perish miserably 
But he is born great 
Men build monuments above the graves of their 
heroes to mark the end of a great life 
But women seek out the birthplace and build their shrine 
Not where a great life has its ending but where 
it had its beginning 

Calvin Coolidge 
President of the United States

The Blue-Button Twins


What Happened When They Took a Snowball Ride 

By Helene Nyce 

THE twins were very excited and very busy.
 "Sister," said Bobby, " we will roll and roll this ball until it is as large as a house, and then we will get shovels and dig it out."
"Yes," interrupted Susie, "and we will live in it forever; maybe Tommy Kirby will come with us too."
But the sudden appearance of Flopsy and Tinktum Tidy with the twins' Christmas sled stopped all plans and filled their heads with another idea.
"Jump on, Sister!"You must have the first coast because you're a lady!" cried Bobby. Then, as she started her downward flight: "Oh! oh! oh!" he shouted, "why didn't I think? Sister should have had the first roll; it's lots better than a sled. But I can/t call her back now." So he clambered on himself.
The pictures on this page will finish the story for you, and I am sure you will never attempt a snowball ride.

Springtime is Cherry Blossom Time in Washington


The Springtime is Cherry Blossom Time in Washington 
By AGNES WINN 
Washington DC 

Cherry Blossom Time in Washington! What a delightful picture words bring to those who have  been in the Nation's Capital during charming season, which has become as famous as Tulip Time in Holland, and Apple Blossom Time in Normandy.
Spring in Washington is beautiful everywhere but in no spot does it present such an exquisite picture as in lovely Potomac Park. Here along the river front and the Tidal Basin has been created a scene of enchanting beauty. Until the park was laid out the river was practically unapproachable to modern Washingtonians and its beauties unseen, but now as one approaches a marvelous panorama greets the eye.
The grass, pale and delicate, is green beyond belief in the long field that forms the center which has the appearance of an island in a river. Encircling the park is a wonderful drive, picturesque, with large boled willows hanging gracefully over the waters edge, and a great garden of perennials, of iris, of jonquils, and masses of forsythia. But it is the bowers of pink blossoms on the small gray Japanese cherry trees that fur nish the famous and lovely setting unequalled in America for its beauty. The waterside becomes an exquisite dream of beauty peculiarly suited to the colors of Washington at this time.
The story of the trees is an interesting one. Learning of Mrs. William Howard Taft's admiration for the cherry trees when she was on a trip to the East, the Japanese government sent a shipment to America but these were condemned and destroyed. Later on, however undaunted by this apparent lack of appreciation, the mayor of the city of Tokio, upon the suggestion of a Japanese gentleman who had spent much of his life in America, presented her with three thou sand of them. This second shipment arrived in the spring of 1912. the last year of the Taft administration, and with simple ceremonies in the presence of Mrs. Taft, the Japanese ambassador and a few others, the first tree was planted on Potomac drive, or the Speedway, as it is familiarly known to residents of Washington.
Now with the first warm winds of spring. the pink and white blossoms of thousands of these flowering cherry trees, planted in irregular groups, stand out against the marble whiteness of the stately Washington Monument and the impressive Lincoln Memorial in the Speedway Park of Washington. Then it is that Potomac Park becomes a mecca for not only the residents of the Capital but for the many thousands of others who journey to Washington to join the annual pilgrimage to see this panorama of nature-some in motors, some on foot, and others galloping along the alluring bridle paths. The trees are cherished as a priceless asset and no one ever breaks a twig.
It is easy for one walking beneath these graceful flowering trees to understand how deeply there lies in the Japanese character love for the beautiful. It must be a great satisfaction to the people of Japan to know that throughout America there is a growing love and appreciation of their national flower. As soon as the blossoms burst forth, the Japanese Ambassador and his family may be seen strolling beneath the trees in native dress, which no doubt bring back happy memories of their homeland.
Japan takes the keenest interest in observing the enthusiasm of our people for the flowering trees and they are considered a real link of friend ship between the two nations. Those who have seen the beautiful cherry blossom scenes in Japan, say, that the setting of the trees around the Tidal Basin, forming a delicate pink fringe around the edge, is as charming as any view in Japan. Someone has spoken of it as an "entrancing gar land of pink and white petals".
There has never been a real cherry blossom festival in Washington, although now and then a pageant has been staged by a group of energetic citizens. Next year it is proposed to have under civic authority an artistic festival of music, dancing, and pageantry, woven around the story of the gift, and emphasizing the deep significance of international friendship, expressed by the flowering trees. In this way it is hoped to glorify the gift, and to give color and life to the spirit of springtime.
Three years after this gift to America, it was arranged to send a shipment of American dogwood to Japan. The trees were planted in Tokio, in the city parks, and were also distributed to the schools. Later on, thousands of dogwood seedlings were sent over, so that now an American, visiting Japan in the springtime, has the pleasure of walking under a profusion of the lovely dogwood, and dreaming of his homeland. And each spring as the school children of America admire the cherry blossoms from Japan along the Potomac, the school children of Japan look in admiration and wonder at the flowering dogwood of America.

The Voices

 The Voices

By Charles H Towne 


I heard the voice of the city 
Calling again and again, 
And into her arms there hastened 
Millions and millions of men.

And I heard the voice of old gardens, 
Of quiet woodland ways; 
But few there were who would heed 
them 
In the rush of the busy days.

The cities grow old and vanish, 
And their people faint and die; 
But the gardens are green forever, 
Forever blue is the sky.

We're Winning

 We're Winning  


(HYMN)

Tune:  Old Black Joe 

Gone are the days when the Grain 
Trust ruled the West. 
Gone are the rebates, short rates, 
and the rest.
 Gone from the West to a better land 
they know.
 We hear their growling voices calling, 
"We must go."


We re winning, they re losing 
In the battle for the right. 
We hear our brother farmers calling, 
"Stick to the fight."

Our market places, so busy and so 
free, 
Our children's rights are sure to guar-
antee. 
So let us strive and give them blow 
for blow, 
And keep the poor ol'grain trust cry-
ing, "I must go."

We're winning, they're losing, 
In the fight for liberty. 
Oh, hear your brother calling, "Far-
mer, 
Stand by the Free."

A smiling face to thee. 

May life no gloomy side reveal,

Good fortune spin her shining 
Right merrily for you.

POOR LITTLE SHOES

 POOR LITTLE SHOES 


(HYMN)

Poor little shoes. They look so tired. 
They've carried him many a mile 
Since he kicked back the covers and 
rolled out of bed
 And hurried them off with a smile. 

Poor little shoes. They are out at 
toes. 
They've been stubbed 'gainst many a
 stone. 
And he likes to trail them along in the
 dust 
When he starts off to school alone.


Poor little shoes. There's a hole in the 
sole. 
There were lots of games he must 
play. 
There's shinney and baseball and foot- 
ball and "sow" 
He had never a moment to stay.

Poor little shoes. They are down at the 
heels. 
That comes from the grand parade 
When he played at soldier and carried 
his gun 
And was going to France he said.


Dear little shoes. They've cost me a 
lot 
They've been mended again and again. 
But I love them because they have car-
ried my boy, 
My little Prince among men.

PATSY DOLLS- PATSY SHOES

Effanbee Dolls 

Fleischaker & Baum, manufacturers of the celebrated "Effanbee" dolls made a very beautiful showing in the foyer with some of the leading numbers of their large quality line. conspicuous among which was the new "Patsy" creation that looks as though it might prove an equally successful rival to "Bubbles". In the main, the Effanbee exhibit consisted of an alluring arrangement of large mechanical figures,- dancing dolls, etc.- for show windows and toy departments, with the entire display looked after by Mrs. A Warren. (1928)

Patsy Shoes 

Fred Braitling of Bridgeport Conn is sending out a very attractive circular featuring doll shoes with roller skates, and many special designs of doll shoes, made for Effanbee's genuine "Patsy" dolls in three sizes for Patsykins, Patsy, and Patsy Ann. Included in the circular is a special Dolly Dimple elastic for restringing these dolls.(1930)

JUST NONSENSE

 JUST NONSENSE 


(HYMN)

 It was midnight on the ocean, 
Not a street car was in sight, 
The sun was shining brightly, 
For it rained all day thar night.

Twas a summer's day in winter, 
The rain was snowing fast, 
As a barefoot girl with shoes on, 
Stood sitting on the grass.

It was evening, and the rising sun 
Was setting in the West, 
While the little fishes in the trees 
Were cuddled in their nest.

The rain was pouring down, 
The sun was shining bright,
And everything that you could see 
Was hidden out of sight.  

Then the organ pealed potatoes, 
Lard was rendered by the choir, 
While the sexton rang a dish rag, 
Someone set the church on fire.


"Holy Smoke!" the preacher shouted, 
As he madly tore his hair; 
Now his head resembles Heaven, 
For there is no parting there.

Leave It to Bobby 

A patriotic Scotchman was present at a meeting at which an eminent Shakespearan scholar dwelt on the glories of his favorite author. At the close the Scot approached the lecturer, and said:
 "Ye think a fine lot o Shakespeare, Doc'tor?" 
"I do sir!" was the emphatic reply. 
"An ye think he was mair clever than Rabbie Burns?"
"Why, there is no comparison between them!"
"Maybe no: but ye tell us the nicht it was Shakespeare who wrote, 'Uneasy lies the head that wears a croon." Now. Rabbie wad never hae written sic nonsense as that!"
"Nonsense, sir!" cried the indignant doctor.
"Ay, just nonsense! Rabbie wad hae kent that a king, or a queen either, disna gang to bed wi' the croon on his head. He wad hang it ower the back o' his chair!"-

WE CAN MAKE HOME HAPPY

 WE CAN MAKE HOME HAPPY 

(HYMN)

Though we may not change the cottage 
For a mansion tall and grand, 
Or exchange a little grass lot 
For a boundless stretch of land. 
Yet there's something brighter, nearer, 
Than the wealth we'd thus command.

Though we have no means to purchase
Costly pictures rich and rare, 
Though we have no silken hangings 
For the walls so cold and bare, 
We can hang them o'er with garlands, 
For flowers bloom everywhere.

We can always make home cheerful 
If the right course we begin; 
We can make its inmates happy 
And their truest blessings win; 
It will make the small room brighter 
If we let the sunshine in.

As we gather round the fireside,
When the evening hours are long, 
We can blend our hearts and voices 
In a happy, social song; 
We can guide some erring brother, 
Lead him from the path of wrong.

We may fill our home with music 
And with sunshine brimming o'er, 
If against all dark intruders 
We will firmly shut the door; 
Yet should evil shadows enter 
We must love each other more.

There are treasures for the lowly
Which the grandest fail to find; 
There's a chain of sweet affection 
Binding friends of kindred mind; 
We may reap the choicest blessings 
From the poorest lot assigned.

THE FARMERS NEW DAY

 THE FARMERS NEW DAY 


(HYMN)


Agriculture long has needed 
More of justice and fair play; 
More than just its toil and labor, 
And the burdens of each day. 

Past years all have been devoted 
By the farmers everywhere 
To the single thought-Production-
What more should he ever care?

Prices of his every product 
Raised by toil and sweat of brow 
Have been fixed by gambling dealers
And the Farmer knew not how.

But a new day now is dawning, 
A new sunrise now is near. 
Farmers everywhere are waking
With a purpose that is clear.

Honest pay for all his products 
With no gamblers in the game 
More than mere toil be his 
More than mere slave be his name

If We Can Smile

 If We Can Smile 

(HYMN)

LIFE is a tangle, 
Life is a care, 
Life is much sorrow 
And often despair; 
But there is pleasure, 
Music and light, 
There is a morning 
After each night. 
Life is a mixture 
Of joy and of pain, 
Plenty of sunshine, 
Plenty of rain. 
But this same mixture 
Makes us worth while, 
If thru the shadows, 
We can still smile.

Awake, little sleeper, awake! 
The day is beginning to break, 
The cows are a-lowing, 
The cocks are a-crowing, 
And ducks sailing over the lake.
Then open your eyes, out wide with 
surprise, 
Awake, little sleeper, awake. 

Arise, little wonder, arise, 
For light again rules in the skies. 
There's so much to see 
At day break for thee,
And the night-time has brightened your
eyes. 
The day dawns clear, for you, baby,
dear,- 
Arise, little wonder, arise.

Sleep on, little dreamer, sleep on. 
What matter to thee is the dawn! 
The froggies loud croak, 
And that katy-did joke, 
And the crickets that dance on the
lawn,- 
These friends of the night, sang a 
lullaby right, 
Sleep on, little dreamer, sleep on.

Rock-a-by, rock-a-by, little brown baby.
Safe on the green branch so high,
 Shut your bright black eyes and go 
sleep, baby, 
While the wood-wing sings, "Hush- 
a -by-by." 

"Hush-a-by-hush" 'tis the voice of 
forest, 
"Hush-a-by-hush "the leaves seem 
to say, 
"Hush-a-by-hush" sing the wild birds

Up in the tree tops so far, far away.

Rock-a-by, rock-a-by, swinging so  
gently,
See, from the dark woods so cool and 
so deep, 
The little gray squirrel, the timid 
brown rabbit
 Are coming to see if papoose is
asleep.

Mother will watch by her little brown 
baby, 
Swinging aloft on the green branches 
so high, 
No harm can come to the little brown 
baby 
Hush-a-by, rock-a-by, hush-a-by-by.

Autumn Leaves

 Autumn Leaves 

(HYMN)

By Eula G Lincoln 

The leaves have turned from green gold 
And red and orange and brown; 
Whenever gentle breezes blow 
They come a-dancing down.

I watch them floating in the brook 
And make believe they're ships, 
With fairy crews and precious loads, 
On long and dangerous trips.

I like to wander in the woods, 
For there it smells so sweet, 
And where the leaves are lying thick, 
To walk with lagging feet.

I like the little leaves of spring. 
They re green and fresh and bright, 
But autumn leaves in colors gay 
Are such a pretty sight.

Columbus Acrostic

 Columbus Acrostic 


(HYMN)

By Effie Crawford 

 C is for Christopher, who in days 
yore 
Was born in Genoa, on Italy's shore. 

is for Ocean, on which he did sail; 
No matter how stormy he weathered 
the gale.

L is for Land that he longed so to find, 
He left all his kindred and home ties 
behind.

U for Unfriendly, which his mates 
proved to be;
They threatened to throw him adrift in 
the sea.  

M is for Money, to aid in his task; 
The Queenm Isabella, gave all that he 
asked. 

B is for Boats. Their number was 
small. 
But patient their leader, and brave 
through it all.

U for Untraveled, the path that he 
chose. 
But from it a nation, much cherished, 
arose 

S for San Salvador, country he gave; 
Yet unloved and lonely, he went to his 
grave.

(ALL )
So Columbus, you see, the name 
we have here: 
And these are the reasons we 
him so dear.  

Christopher Columbus was a native of Genoa a,nd died at Valladolid in the year 1506 being about seventy years old. But this great man was unjustly deprived of the honor, of giving his name to this continent by Americus Vespucius, a native of Florence, who claimed the honor of being the first discoverer of the main land.

JOG ON, JEHOSAPHAT

  JOG ON, JEHOSAPHAT  


( By WH Stark, President Luther & Moore Lumber Co., Orange Tex)

Road gets rougher every mile;(cluck) 
Jog on, Jehosaphat, an show some style. 
Mule's gone lame, an' the hens won't lay;
Corn's way down an' wheat don't pay; 
Hogs no better, steers too cheap; 
Cows quit milking,meat won't keep; 
Oats all heated, spuds all froze; 
Fruit crop's busted, wind still blows; 
Sheep seem puny, an' I'll be durned 
Rye field's flooded an' the haystack's burned
Looks some gloomy, I'll admit-(cluck)
 Jog on, Jehosaphat we ain't down yit. 

Coal's in high an' crops in low; 
Rail rates doubled, got no show; 
Money's tighter, morals loose;
Bound to git us-what's the use; 
Sun's not shinin' as it should;
Moon ain't lightin' like it could;
Air seems heavy, water punk; 
Tests yer mettle; shows yer spunk; 
No use stoppin' to debate- (cluck) 
Jog on, Jehosaphat, it's getting late.

Wheels all wobble; axle's bent; 
Dashboard's broken, top all rent; 
One shaft splintered, t'other sags;
Seat's all busted busted, end-gate drags;
 May hang t'gether- b'lieve it will; 
Careful drivin' ll make it still; 
Trot-gosh ding ye-that's the stuff, 
Old trap's movin' right good speed- 
(Cluck) Jog on, Jehosaphat, You're some old steed. 

Road's smothed out 'til it don't seem true- (cluck) 
Jog on, Jehosaphat, you pulled us through.

 The vale of buried kings lies far below 
The vale of Jehosaphat through which flows the brook Kedron, lies between the City of Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives. Here Jehosaphat was buried, and here the pillar of Absalom is shown .The Jews continue to throng to Jerusalem from various parts of the world with the view of reposing in this valley,         When death shall close their weary aching eyes-
 and they expect that in this place all the nations of the earth shall assemble on the morning of the resurrection.
