That institution represents 3,000,00 men, women and Children, and is the greatest government ever founded on the doctrine of loving your neighbor as yourself, "This work is no experiment; it will set a precedent in education. The children are given academic education in the morning and Vocational training in the afternoon They have a system of self-government. Every day at 6 o'clock they meet and pass on their own actions during the day. "We contend that children are just as anxious and ambitious to be good as older people, and that they should be allowed to work out their plans without being nagged by constant don'ts. "Williams Jennings Bryan took a life membership in the Moose lodge when he heard of the work at Moosehart, and he declared the daily assembly of children governing themselves to be one of the most wonderful things that he had ever seen. "Albert Bushnell Hart, of Harvard, said that Mooseheart is destined to be the greatest institution of its kind in the world. "However, it is not simply housing and clothing children, but this work i3 putting into the manhood of our lodge the higher purposes and ideals of charity."

"Our order teaches belief in God. loyalty in our country, protection for the weak and the fallen. We do not aim so much to make our country wealthy as happpy, not bo much great as good."

Diamonds are advancing in prica right smartly, too. War conditions and the export tax will continue to add very materially to the cost of first quality diamonds. Now is the time to buy and Dickinson's the place. A perfect diamond is an ideal investment. It will increase in value each year. Most of our diamond stock was bought before the last advances, and we positively can save you 10 to 25 per cent on a good diamond. We don not handle any cheap, inferior diamonds as they are not a good investment, and are always plentiful.
