SUNSHINE SONNETS
The true wealth of the earth dwells
not in gold,
Nor yet in jewels with their flashing
glow; -
It is not found in cities great and
old,
For. through their broken stones the
grasses grow.
Men strive for things that fade, and
vainly dream
That they are gaining, riches real and
true.
And find but poverty—life’s richer
gleam
Has passed them by, to vanish in the
blue.
The man who touches beauty’s golden
wing,
Rejoicing in the sunrise and the
day,
Who .sees the loveliness in every
thing
From stars to shadows—he has found
the way.
Earth’s riches lie, not in the things
that die,
But in the joy of life beneath the
sky. —Murial Brewster.

ETIQUETTE*
By MISS FLO
Dear Misa Flo: When there is no
head-waiter to find a table for a cou
ple, should the lady op gentleman pre
cede? (2) Is it ever permissible for
the gentleman to follow the head-
waiter, the lady immediately follow
ing the gentleman ? Thank you. F. R.
* * * •
When there is no head-waiter, the
gentleman should go first, in order
to locate the table. (2) There, are
occasions when the gentleman prefers
to follow immediately after the head-
waiter, in order to consult him regard
ing the desirablility of the table. This
is quite permissible, but not so cus
tomary as the other order.
Dear Miss Flo! Is stationery in tab
let form considered correct, or should
the double page sheet be used? *(2) Is
the ink I have used for this letter
correct? D. E.
* * * *
Linen stationery in tablet form ie
correct. .However, the double-page
sheet gives an impression of being
very business like. Your ink is all
right.

dance, should the gentleman leave the
lady immediately or see to it that she
is comfortably seated or at least back
with her friends? L. K.
* * * *
When a gentleman thanks a lady
for a dance she may say, “I am glad
you enjoyed it,” or “I also enjoyed it.”
(2) A lady does not sedk her partner
for the next dance. She should wait
until he comes to claim the dance. (3)
A gentleman should never leave his
dancing partner standing alone on the
dance floor. If he is her escort, he
must.see that she has a partner for
th^ next dance. If he is not her es
cort, he should see that she is com
fortably seated with others before
leaving her.
To Those*Interested in.Chautauqua:
The ohairman and committee regret
very much that one rule they made,
namely, closing the sale of the tickets
at 12 o’clock Friday, conflicts with
our contract with the Redpath Chau
tauqua. Our contract calls for the
sale of tickets to close, at $3.00 each,
at 3:00 p. m.
Now, we know that several of our
“best” citizens are waiting for some
“Bargain Tickets.” Also some guar
antors are waiting to get their tickets,
expecting their tickets to cover their
part of the deficit.
We take this method of advising
you again that you will POSITIVELY
get no tickets. Furthermore, alii
adult tickets will increase to 9&50
after 3:00 p. m. Friday, May 1.
Some are kicking about the method
of ticket sale. They should have been
at the meeting and help to make the
rules.

very wealthy, sent him to college and
