practice theyd have to sing some anthem they knew he would be disappointed she could see the hurt look in his eyes it was the first time he had presented any of his own work and he was depending on her to carry it through it couldnt be helped this was the chance of a lifetime for her the first opportunity she had really had to show what she could do in a musical jlnfc then she certainly wanted to honor her own mother at this particular time suddenly she seemed to hear again those simple words hope i named you that because i want you al ways to live up to it and remember this nothing drains your ability to hope like promises broken keep your word at whatever cost it was nearly two years since she had left home shed tried all that time to live up to that parting counsel but this this was the chance for which she had worked and waited all thosa two years she was going to slug sunday morning it wasnt as if she were disappointing altogether hqw had they heard about- her any- way likely from professor james totbtseif if she refused it meant his displeasure he wouldnt teach you if he didnt like you he hadnt much time orchurches either openly said she was a fool to waste her timefdown in that little church that crowd could never get her anywhere she must accept hurriedly lest her resolution fall her she went to the phone dialed the num ber given and accepted the invitation called the choir leader and told him res- signet disappointment lollowedrlef back to her room again she read the note the vesy lateness of it the banquet was for friday night just three nights away meant that iikeljrsome one else had been asked failed and she was being given the chance a marvellous chance for her her first big one wednesday night she went for her lesson and came out walking on air at the professors praise for her choice and rendering of the solo it twas the one she intended singing sunday morn ing a favorite poem of her mothers which she- had set to music thursday night she settled down to the piano for a final practice sud- i denly her fingers left the keys her voice broke almost in the middle of a note mother o mine mother o mine the music of another favorite of her mothers seemed to fill the room again almost as if she stood beside her she heard her mothers voice hope keep your word at whatever cost but this was such a chance resolutely she com menced playing again unheard to any ears but hers strange music filled the air fehe glanced at her mothers photo ithadnever lookedlike that before those eyes that always smiled no mat ter what they had a strange look a sad one hope turned her head away and for a moment sobs shook her frame was sheliving up to the best mother god ever gave a girl dellberatly plan- nlng to break her word on mothers day ofp all days wiping her eyes she fleivtb the phone dialed her number and almost breath lessly explained she had a previous en gagement which prevented her being at the banquet friday night heard and realized to the full what was meant by the oh very well we can get some one else everything seemed to go wrong at choir practice friday night half the choir werent there the ones who were seemed absolutely indifferent to either music or words the leader was in des pair the anthem was terrible hope felt sure they would never be able to sing it sunday morning and wished she hadnt come the only confident- one was the made her heart sojght trjr as she would to comfort herself the fact re mained she had turned down a chance that might not come to her again for many a day but now well she knew shed do 11 over again there seemed so many strangers in the congregation probably due to the day she had never dreamed the an them could go so well after friday night there wasnt st the sermon finish- ad the organ gave forth the first notes o h sol as sh tutu fahe ahiii as sh tutu she almost felt her mothers presence beside her and sang as never before as the last notes of the postlude died away the ticking of the clock was plainly audible stepping down from the choir loft hope jknew she had been more than repaid but could she believe her eyes one bound and she was tight in her mothers arms forgetting- all else mother oh mother but however did you get here our train was late so i just slipped in here at the side you were just be ginning youi soiot and i was afraid if you saw me it might upset you neither the delegate nor the- alternate to jha convention here next week could come and at the last moment they asked me i started two days earlier so as to surprjse you on mothers day but dar ling there seem to be some people wait ing to see you as hope turned a most aristocratic looking elderly gentleman addressed her miss harrington i came here to church this morning because the organ ist is an old friend of mine and i wanted to hear the anthem the words of which are those of my- mothers favorite hymn i realize you want to visit with your mother i wish mine might have come to me today but she can only do so in spirit you brought her very near both in the anthem and your solo will you call and see me next week as early as possible he handed her a card if you will tell me when ill arrange to be at liberty back in her suite hope turned to her mother mother ive something to tell you andit all poured out how could i have faced you if i had failed just think if i hadnt gone to practice we couldnt have sung that anthem and then i might never have met professor shlnberg child her arms were tight about hope you never get anywhere by breaklhg your word let those- lazy good for rro nourish ment appetites he gone this is spring we need energy to climb an emerald hill to follow some gurgling brook and to match our wits against its overflowing chuckle all nature seems to have new life why should we sit ttoack and be limited in our activities because we dont feel like eating and consequently havent very much ambition fr if you have the faintest notion that you are losing your appetite take these steps of prevention immediately breathe deeply oftnp good fresh air and exercise in the open if possible take out the gplf sticks put on your walking shoes or grasp a spade and do things to the garden next look to your diet see that it contains plenty of vitamins and min erals plenty df green things and foods with fibre which make for internal cleanness it is well in this season of housecleanlng to make sure that your own personal house is cleansed inside and out and ready for sununertactivi- tles a sluggish system does much to dull the appetite it gives a tired feeling and a lowresistance and in this condi tion we care very little about eating and grow increasingly more uninterested in food as water la one of the best cleans ers in the world indulge in it drink six to eight glasses a day and see how much better you feel as for foods with fibre the markets are full of them most of these men tioned are available now or will be t y which are finicky about vegetables re- memb that by adding bran to their diets you will be adding fibre much likei that whlcbrls found la vegetables bran also contains minerals and vitamins it is a good source of vita min b and the minerals iron copper and manganese one ounce of allbran contains as much vitamin b as one large apple one large banana- or five ounces of orange juice it also contains twice as much iron as one ounce of liver this cereal is therefore an excellent food for weening the appetite and keep ing the body fit in general it may seem ironical that an appetite for food may be stimulatst through food but it is true if by an adequate diet you regulate body processes and increase health you will find your ap petite i returning at first it may be difficult to eat even if you know vfood is what

a certain satisfaction is derived from kdlngother people responsible for your j failures take the boy who cannot get along at school because his teachers are unfair orthe girl who cannot get along at home because her parente are exact ing and her brothers and sisters bad- tempered or the young man who can not get along in his job because of the jealousy and the unfair tactics of his fellow employees it is true that it is pleasanfer to put the blame on other people but there the advantage ends the student who faces the fact that his own laziness is re sponsible for his poor showing may turn over a new leaf the girl who admits that her own meanness ils to blame for the shortcomings of her home life may make a change phe employee who owns up that he lost his job becausehe did not do his work satisfactorny may fare better in his next position if it is all the f salt of somebody else how ever there is no use in turning over a new leaf if you want to improve mat ters take your share of the- blame find ing fault with other people may be com forting but it does not help i just the i hing for jobs like these getting even some of you put so much energy into getting even that you have
