The Home Garden If the war garden was a war-time necessity, the peace garden is a prirre necessity of the readjustment period.
War conditions demanded that food be raised
where it had not been produced before, with labor not employed in agricultural pursuits, and in places where its transportation to the markets .did not add to the burdens of the railroads. This temporary expedient has become, in the face of . present , conditions, the only guarantee against world hunger and starvation. Today, as never before, home gardens, assiduously cultivated, planted with foodstuffs for summer consumption and winter canning, are the means whereby we may offset a tremendous shrinkage in the supply of food.
The wheat crop is at least 15 per cent under normal in the United States. Adverse weather conditions between the time when the April statistics were gathered and the harvest may greatly reduce these figures. A poor corn and potato crop may contribute to the diminution of the foodstuffs that are used on the American table. Farmers are not cultivating the acreage in 1920 which they put under the plow two years ago. They cannot obtain farm labor and are hampered in their efforts to grow crops. It seems as if the country were confronted with one
of the most pronounced food shortages in its ! history. It isn't going to be a question of price, but of ability to obtain supplies at any cost. How essential then that the home garden idea
be applied -to the vacant lots of the city, that no ground be left untilled and uncultivated! No matter how much money we may have this winter, it will avail us nothing if food products do not exist. The real issue before us is the raising of vegetables and foodstuffs. Farsighted heads of families will not pass by unnoticed the challenge of a sufficient food supply for winter. He will cultivate his backyard, or lacking one, will try to obtain a vacant lot. Now is the time to act. Regrets this fall and winter will not put food on the table nor excuse our laziness.

Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams
, THE MAN WHO CAME TO TOWN No one expected Him to come. So i hero" was no one at the station to meet Him." It was a usual arrival. The crowd hastily stepped from the train, each traveler going his separate way. To one leaving a train all folks are strangers, so that this particular Stranger excited neither notice nor interest. ' So down the street He went and was 60on lost in the thing which He came to town to do. First, however, one word about his mien. His dress was simple, though neat. He wore no hat. His wonderful hair fell like the silk from ripe corn naturally. While His bodily covering consisted only of a great flowing robe of something homespun. Sandals were on His feet. Yet so firmly did He move in His bearing that the passerby gave Him but casual note. And, besides, dusk was creeping in. But there were sick in the town, sorely discouraged - ones, those that were desperately despondent, those worn in body, through toil and worry. And the town was full of problems. A mist of unrest and revolt filled the air with a sort, of stagnation. The Man who came to town knew all this in advance. That's why He came! , And so He lost no time. He immediately got to work. He laid out His plans. People in all walks welcomed Him especially the poor. He went about doing good, sparing not His body. Little children loved Him. Strong men asked Him to their homes. The workers wanted Him at their simple boards. Men's minds and hearts took upon great change. And a new Kfp. hnth in effort and hope, came
about. And the next day was one of gladness. For the Prince of Peace had come to that town! And it is possible for Him to come to any town. But he always comes unannounced.
Dinner Stories
They were rehearsing for the opera when the conductor was nearly frightened out of his boots by a terrific blast from the trombone player in the corner. "What are you doing?" roared the conductor. "I am sorry, sir," came the reply. "It was a fly on my music. "But," he added with just a touch of professional pride, "I played him."

A little girl was asked, upon her return home, how she liked the singing of the congregation in 'the church. "I liked it very much indeed," she said, "although all the people said it was bad." "All the people said it was bad!" "What do you mean, my dear?" "Oh, it was so bad that I heard the people praying: "Lord, have mercy upon us miserable singers.' "
"If," said the teacher, "you rhyme the facts of history, it wrll help you remember them. For instance: 'In fourteen hundred ninety-two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.' That will help you to remember the date of the discovery of America." Next day the teacher said: "John-
