A HYMN OF CHILD WELFARE
OGod of little children, whom thou
on earth didst lore,
Look down today and bleu them
from Heaven high above.
Onr orchards and our vineyards we
till with zealous cars
But ehlld-pUnts, unprotected, are
drooping everywhere.
C God of Httlechildren, teach us to
know their worth.
Of such shall be thy kingdom in
Heaven and on earth,
And in the great world-garden thy
laborers ore we
To guard and keep the blossoms for
all eternity,
O God of little ehildren, we have
no wealth besides.
Teach us to eeek and uve them by
effort nation-wide,
To fight the foes that threaten, the
weeds and pest and blight,
For every child-plant growing is
precious in thy sight
Atlanta, Ga. .Homer George, mana
ger of the Atlanta theater, whom ev
erybody nearly in Georgia knows and
likes, is black from a trip to Mew
York. Southemors and Georgians,
particularly, will be interested in the
predictions of Mr. George for a bril
liant theatrical season. Greater inter
est is being shown in theatricals than
in several years according to Mr.
George, and H is generally believed
around New York that the "spoken
drama,” which picture shows have
crowded off the map, will have a real
"come back” this fall and winter.
"There seems to be a general feel
ing among th big theatrical people
that next season will be the beat in
years,” said Mr. George. "I talked
with many producers and they are
making plans for more and bigger
shows than at any time in some years.
October.
bookings are more promising than
five years, which la saying much.”
0 God of little children, thy garden
shall be tilled
By us whose hearts are wakened, thy
prophecies fulfilled.
The desert long neglected shall blos
som as hte rose,
With health and hops and freedom
for every child that grows.

A TALK ON THRIFT
One of the most important lessons
any individual, young or old can learn
is the value of time; for time is not
tnly money but can be turned, into
money if the habit of thrift attends
its use. Those who employ labor
quickly realize the importance of the
time element in all business transac
tions, for the labor cost, which is so
vital an element in the cost of every
thing, depends upon the thriftlnees of
the worker in the use of hie time. The
minute that does not produce some-
thing la not only a wasted minute
but a costly minute to somebody.
Many a man fails because he cannot
get results from labor.
Children should be taught to re
gard Uie time they are not in school
as an opportunity to earn money. It
should not be idle time, or merely
play time, for the child does not need
recreation so much as a change of oc
cupation. Most of us play too much
and the child that is taught to turn
the out of school hours into recrea
tion that brings returns has learned
one of life’s most helpful lessons.
The young man or woman starting
out in a business career needs to learn
the same lesson,—that the time out
of business is not merely for play, but
for. self improvement. It is not what
you do between eight and six that
brings business success, but what you
do from six to eight Visit any of
the Young Men’s Christian Associa
tions that run study classes, or the
night schools, and you will find a body
of young men and women who prop
erly value the spare time business al
lows and art using it tor self improve
ment. These are marked men. They
are bound to win. They will get some
where because they are willing to pay
the price in self denial. They figure
that two or three nights a week for
year or two will add materially to
their power to do, and power to do
commands its compensation. We pay
trained men, and no where is train
ing so easily to be had as in the spare
hours.
A young man applied to a bank
recently, saying that he worked nights
and had a few hours a day to give to
other work and wanted to help the
family by these added efforts. He
has the right stuff in him. In the
daily papers comes the story of a man
who was in like position, and, seeing
an advertirement for a man who
could give a little extra time to the
work in mind, answered it and added
ten dollars a week to his salary for
eleven yean with no injustice to other
demands. He eras the only applicant.
The world is full of disgruntled and
dissatisfied individuals who would
happier and for better off if they
would stop whinning and complaining
and look around for opportunities to
earn extra money, or spend the spare
hours in preparation for the greater
opportunities that open th the train
ed man and woman. The correspond
ence schools have done wonders in
training students for better things,
and merit the thanks of all who are
interested in the improvement of the
race.
Thrift of time will mske a man
rich beyond his fondest dreams, and
waste of it will make him poor, how
ever rich he may be, and the best les
son you can teach your child—yea,
the best lesson you can learn yourself
is to use the time you are not jvork-
ing for your boss, or sleeping or rest
ing, in such a way that it will put dol
lars in your pocket or brains in your
head. It is likely to do both.

DENTISTS TO ASSIST IN
PREPAREDNESS PROGRAM
Buffalo, N. Y., June.—The Pre
paredness League of American Den
tists, with headquarters in this city,
has opened a registration bureau in
the hope of enrolling twenty thous
and dentists who will each agree to
prepare, free of charge, the irfouth of
at least-one applicant to meet the re
quirements for enlistment in the army
navy, or marine corps, and subject to
such rules as shall protect them
against imposition.
The standard enlistment for the
United State* Marin* Corps requires
the applicant to have at least twenty
sound teeth, with four opposed mo
lars and four opposed incisors. Prop
erly filled teeth are counted as sound,
and many men now rejected for de
fective teeth will be saved to the
“First Line of Defense," by the pa
triotic members of the Dentists’ Pre
paredness League, is the belief of
League officials.

Why Marines Wear Leggings. *
The stout leggings worn by mem
bers of the United States marine
corps are not purely a decorative m-
Janet to their very natty uniforms, as
popularly mposed by civilians, but are
a protection for th* men against trop
ical diseases whlla In foreign service,
naval surgeons say.
Many of the most dangerous trop
ical diseases are transmitted by the
bites of insects. Among these are
materia, yellow fever, bubonic plague,
hookworm, elephantiasis and tropical
ulcer. Fleas and mosquitoes are the
prime carriers and they make their
first attack upon the ankles, thence
working their way over the wlgple
body.
The leggings worn by the United
States marines afford splendid protec
tion to the ankles against fleas, pwa-
qultoes and infected dirt
