We a re f ind ing it a li t t le difficult to firid a b a l a n c e d diet. We 've a r r i ved w h e n t h i n g s are a t t h e tail end of the season .

I can bes t exp l a in i t by s a y i n g that the Bra- zi l ians a re no t consumers of vege t a - bles. M e a t is t he s t ap l ex i t em of food and i f m e a t is no t procurable , t h e n

care for potatoes very much, nor will they bother about the other vegeta- bies, and will pass ~pilk by without a glance, but twice a day for dinner and supper year in and year out, they want their beans and rice. Well, of course, the Americans who come down here can't live that way so we have to do the best we can. Our workers in the interior practically live on chickens and eggs for there are parts of the country which will grow nothing but coffee. Here at the school, we are much more fortunate for they have started a garden now and are experimenting -with our American vegetables. There are tur- nips which we both despise and car- rots which I am learning to like, and there are potatoes, sweet potatoes, spinach, beans, string beans, cabbage, native fruits Which I've not mastered yet, strawberries six months in the year , and t h e r e will be g r a p e s be fo re long. So y o u s e e w e fa re p r e t t y well , but aH t h i s had to be w o r k e d out g r a d u a l l y .

ON HOW ROT TO GET RICH

"Oh, Aunt Emmy," cried Helen, rushing in and kiss ing Aunt Emmy, "I 've got a wonderfu l chance to get rich. The nicest man told me about a pa ten t bee-hiVe that ' w~M double m y money in a year! WitE ~ it bees will make two or th ree t imes as much horrey. If I buy it r ight away I can make ever so much money, for the stock is selling at fifty cents and it 's gging to par soon, w h a t e v e r tha t is, so I'll h a w oodles of money. Oh, Aunty, won't it be lovely? You and I can go to Europe a ~ d ~ "

"Hold on a minute , Helen," begged Aunt Emmy; "would you rea l ly ,t~t this man have your money for a ~ool thing like tha t?"

"Why, Aunty, I'm sure it is all r ight! He gave me the loveliest bookle t - - I brought it along. You are so suspicious, A.unty," ~he reproached.

"Suspicious, am I ~. That $~,000 is the only money you ever had or ever expect to have except what you earn as a teache.r. You can ' t afford to throw it away. Sit r ight down and write to your bank for informat ion about that bee-hive. Tell them you are thinking of inves t ing your $5,000,. and send them the booklet ."

"But, A~nty, tha t would take sev- eral days, and the man said not to wait," Helen protested.

"If people would wai t a while be- fore investing, ~here would be far less failures in the world. You will hea r from the bank soon enough. Promise."

"I suppose I'll have to," agreed Helen, crestfal len, "but I'm sure the old bank doesn' t want to be bo thered with poor little me."

When Helen came to see Aunt Era- my again she looked serious. Aunt E m m y ~uessed t h a t he r get-rich-quick bubble had burst.

"Look, Aunty," she said, handing over a le t ter f rom the bank tha t g a v e a repor t on the pa ten t bee-hive. The le t t e r said tha t the men engaged in the enterpr ise were not t rus twor thy . It invited Helen to consul t with the bank about he r inves tment .

"You were r ight , Aunty," said Helen. ""I saw Mr. Hi tchcock there . He told me a lot about i nves tmen t s and suggested some safe ones. I never understood the bank's v~lue be- fore. If it had not been ~or you and the bank I should not have a cen t to - day. I'll never do a thing with money unless I ask the bank first. I fel t I was with friends, Aunty."

A Chance to Shine

T HE young man of today need not leave the f a r m for a ca-

reer . True , p resen t condit ions a r e not conducive to l a rge f inancial r e tu rns , but these condit ions will undoubtedly change. Those who a re in position to know th ink t h a t we have reached the low ebb and now f a r m products a re on the up- grade.

We have only begun to solve our ag r i cu l tu ra l problems. There is a l a rge unexplored field ahead of us. The young man wi th brains and a sympathe t i c heart can find ample oppor tuni t ies fo r m a k i n g a name for himself on the farm.

In address ing a national group of yoking people recently, Pres ident Head, of t~he American Bankers Association, said he believes the oppor tuni t ies f o r m a k i n g a n a m e as a leader in a g r i c u l t u r e are greater than r ~ k i ~ g a n~m¢ in the posi t ion o f a Congressman . He thinks the day is coming when a man shall t ake pride in saying, "I am an A m e r i c a n f a r m e r . "

Any young man who has a lik- ing for th ings r u r a l can well af- ford to consider preparing h imse l f to become a good f a r m e r , for a f t er he has made a success of his farm, he will find abundant opportunity for leadership in his c o m m u n i t y . - - Banlter-Far~ner.
