THE CHILDREN'S CORNER

CANT AND CANT

DEAR KIDDIES,-

The other day I heard a little boy use the word "can't." Well there is no such word as can't-Always have a try; and be fore you any "can't," have another try.

But there is such a word as CANT (without the apostrophe) derived from the Latin Cantor meaning a "corner,” In Architec ture, the term is used where the corner of a square is cut off, ecta- gonally or otherwise. Thus a bay window, the sides of which are not parallel, or at right angles to the spectator are said to be canted

Again, there is another meaning for CANT derived

from tho Latin cantare meaning "to sing." The word appeared in English during the 18th century and was applied to the whining speech of beggars.

BOYS TO AID

'A VIATORS.

A NUMBER of American Boy Scoute are excited about & plan of co-operation with aviators which has just been drawn up for them. The air-service authorities in Connecticut require the con- struction of about 100 air-way markers, which trave then to be placed at different points.

The eager boys will soon be busily engaged on this interesting and useful task,

Hill-tops or large open spaces I will be chosen as sites for these markers, Airmen will notice signs so placed better, and at much greater heights than is possible with some already displayed on roofs of buildings.

On the chosen spot the name of the nearest town will be printed out by means of stones painted a brilliant yellow. And each letter will measure ten feet high by seven feet across.

Above the name of the town air- men will notice a 40-foot arrow of stones pointing in the direction of the town, and this information will be supplemented by the dis- play of figures giving the distance. Also, a pilot will know that the town is an airport if he sees a great circle (ten or fifteen foot dia- meter) at the tail of the arrow.

A further aid will be in the provision of another arrow (placed below the name of the town) and the word North" in six-foot letters This will, of course, give compass, direction.

ONCE IN A BLUE MOON

Our dreams do all come true,

Some later-and-some-soon

At least I'm told they do,

Once in blue moon, All kinds of lovely things

Come hurrying our way, To make us rich na kings,

So people often say."

I'm told that I shall find

The bird of happiness, That often haunts my mind;

I hope for nothing less. Our dreams do all core true,

Some later and some soon;

I know, I KNOW they do, Once in a blue moon,
