Schools I 5HOOV.O 5fW NOT RELIGIOUS THOUGHTS FOR MONDAY Continued From Page 10. after day chopping down trees and hewing them and fighting wood flies. The temple would never have been built had they not continued. Is that not a parable of our mothers? Here is where many mothers fall. They watch the passersby, getting their eyes off their real job.

They fail in everything. The job of being a real mother seems pretty hard and mo notonous at times. But the temple of humanity must be built. Who will do It? The mothers In the homes? We can substitute sawmills for hewers In the mountains. but we can never substitute ma chines for mothers.

At high school and college com mencements my heart often thrills and aches at the same time. Some boy or girl is receiving honors Mother made it possible. There she sits In the audience with her face radiant, and brushes a tear from her cheek. There she sits, unno ticed, except by someone who knows the hopes and aspirations of par ents' hearts and looks for manifes tations 'of happiness on such occa sions. Who ls ths happier, ths one being honored or the mothr? In an hour like that the suffering, the sacrifices and.

the toils of previous hours and days are fully rewarded. So it is in life. Back of everyone who succeeds In life is that silent. unnoticed, admirer, lover and well wisher. Mother has triumphed In the triumph of her daughter or son.

We do not want to listen to what doctors say today. What they say, however, ls probably true. We do not want to listen to what lawyers and judges, some of them, say today. We want to think about the good mothers. We want to think about motherhood at It's best.

Wa want to take off our hats and stand reverently and quietly and shed a tear of deep and profound apprecia tion before the most willing suffer ers, the most generous sacrificers of themselves, and the most abused yet most loved group of people in all the world, our mothers. Just let me turn aside awhile. And leave the rugged way; Just let me rest a moment now. And find my yesterday. If I but pause and close my eyes, I easily can see The holy shrine of long ago The shrine at mother's knee.

Give me, God! her God to know. To worship and believe; Give me her faith to make the best Of all that I receive. Oh, let me catch her vision sweet! It seemed so real to me, When I knelt there and found my Shrine My shrine at mother's knee. Years sweep along with certain swing; Rough paths bruise weary feet. Hope drowns In deep discourage ment.

And love a hate doth meet. With worn and heavy hearts we turn. In halting, whispered plea. To Him who glorified with peace The shrine at mother's knee. Then God, God! My mother's God, Who knew the cross she bore.

As to my memory there comes My mother as of yore: As though I were a child In faith I come to thee Again I seek, again I find, The shrine at mother's knee. Charles E. Whelan.

(U.P.) A lack of liquidation which has been evidenced in wheat lately. Is giving the market a better appearance and slightly nfore unfavorable crop reports are causing the market to reverse Its trend. Any suggestion that shippers In Australia have artifically withheld wheat available for exports is entirely without foundation, according to members of the Australian wheat trade. A total of 300,000 bushels of oats have been sold to go to storage for delivery on May contracts. There is as much doubt over the form of farm relief legislation which will finally be passed in the special session of congress as there is over the tariff measure.

Fi 1 XT manciai iNews Brighter Outlook in Metal Industry Buying Movement Expected to Get Under Way in Week or Ten Days. The outlook In the metal Industry is much better than in recent weeks, according to reports from various centers at the end of the week. A buying movement is expected to get under way in a week or ten days. The stabilisation point Is believed to have been reached in copper and this will serve to stimulate Interest in other material. Electrolytic copper has held at 18 cents a pound, delivered, in the last few weeks.

Much depends upon the statistical report to be Issued in a few days. However, western dealers believe that the market will be more active in the next month or six weeks as business has been extremely quiet so far this month. There have been a few periods of fair buyln gbut nothing like a real movement has been Inaugurated. Conditions Satisfactory NEW YORK, May 13. General business and trade canditions remained satisfactory last week, with factory Industries generally maintaining the high rate of activity reached during March and held through April.

Retail trade, however, was again hampered by unseasonable weather in many sections and a sharp break In wheat prices to the lowest levels In five years was somewhat unest-tllng. The steel Industry showed practically no sign of a seasonal decline, and the United States Steel corporation reported a slight increase In unfilled orders during April, despite the fact that mills were operated practically at capacity during the month. This was the first increase reported for April, usually a month seasonally slack, since 1922. The automobile Industry continued its record operations, with decreases in production at some plants offset by increases at others. The heavy export demand was reported as well maintained.

During March 10 per cent of the output of passenger cars and 35 per cent of the production of trucks were exported, so that foreign markets are playing an important part in maintaining the high rate of production. All eyes are now turned on the motor industry, as the high rate of output has been largely responsible for ths extraordinary activity in stee land many other lines. Preliminary estimates of April motor production indicate a slight gain over March and a new high record, but many observers feel that a sharp decline must come before July 1. Financial Briefs Stockholders of Hiram Walker-Gooderham and Worts have approved the three-for-one split-up of the common stock. Youngs town district steel Industry shows no let up In production wKh departments producing steel sheets, hot and cold strip steel, tin-plate and semi-finished steel forms operating close to capacity.

Health programs have been arranged for today and are being held at the Community Center and the public school buildings. All schools in Whiting, pubiio and parochial, are taking part in the Health Week program. Dr.

B. 13. Reeve, Whiting, has Is sued the following article on health: "If some one were to ask me what I desired most in my answer would be good health. "Without health, wealth is of little value. Knowing this to be true, we should make it our aim in life to maintain a healthy body.

In order to do this, we must make a 365 day a year campaign. In order to accomplish results, we must work together. The public health de partment has influenced the prevail ing sanitary conditions; sewerage disposal, pure water supply, better working conditions, the care and handling food, and many other things too numerous to mention. "We can do our part in this daily campaign by observing clean liness in our homes or wherever we may be. We often very carelessly expectorate on the sidewalk or some other public place, thereby exposing our neighbors to disease.

"Prevention of disease is what we are striving to maintain. Many acute infections could be avoided or stamped out if we would avail ourselves of the protection that science has made specific. I refer to diph theria, scarlet fever, smallpox and typhoid fever. If you have children call your doctor and inquire as to when they should be vaccinated. thereby saving yourself the worry of exposure of your children to these diseases.

"We must also keep a close check on physical defects. This can be ac complished by periodical examina tions, finding our minor and often major troubles in their early stage. "Do not call your physician as a last resort, for it is a better business proposition to have him keep you well. Many serious illnesses and even death could be prevented if cared for at the proper time; so let us turn our Health Week into a Health Year and continue it through life."
