Goodness of Heart Shines Forth in the Countenance, Modestv ' mt and Sweetness, Attributes of Queenly Character. To be chosen Queen of the Children's Carnival on Wednesday, Aug. 6th, at SPIUNGBROOK I A UK, dos

not mean that the young lady be imperious, haughty or commanding. It means that she be gentle, modest and sweet. It signifies a natural grace manner and a kindly disposition and a regard for the feeling of others. It means a sweetness and light that shines out from her countenance, and that radiates from her personality, just as the light is retk-cted from the diamond. There is thij difference, however, the diamond borrows its light, while hers originates within herself. The highest beauty of a rose

lies not in sepals nor in the tints of

its petals, but in the perfume of its gracious depths. So the highest beauty of any queen lies in the goodness of her heart. Then she will o modest and sweet, and everything about her personality will suggest a

Queenly Girl. Of course the judges will have a ditllcult task in selecting the Queen, because there are so many Queenly Girls in South Rend and Mishawaka. Twenty girls in the parade will receive gold Neck Chains with Lockets and Silver Coin Pursep. These prizes are awarded independently of those given to the Queen and her Maids. If you wish to enter the parade drop a postal to Mr. Daiky, Manager Springbrook Park, with your name and address. Advertisement.
