Ay. we had been missed. we need- ed no oiher assurance than these words to know our absence had been felt even at this, one of our common chores. "And Ellen!" he called from the barnyard. ”l..istenl" Sure enough, the pond orchestra was into its spring refrain.

How lovely it was about-all of it: fields and woodlands and borne. touched with the glory of a May evenlngl scent of smoke from a cleaning-fire lingered not unkind- ly on the air. mingling with the earthy smell of new-raked yards. There was silver and azure-blue above the rose to the west.

Already twilight was dim- ming the far hills and shadowing the pond in the depths of the val- ley . . . placid now as was the evening which was bringing to a close our busy workaday week.

Now we were home. We had made the trip through a country- side enhanced by the colors of spring. and over all the shades of the sunset. A brother-in-law. a stalwart man. grandfather of two. and his wee daughter-a maid with freckles across her nose like granddaughter-had brought us to our door . . . and they on a mis- sion to the city to bring home lov- ed ones from there to enjoy a

But presently a fire crackled on the hearth. ligiits glowed. the clock picked up a merrier tune. we were home again. Are mothers missed from the home? -as James said. Then how best shall we show our apprecia- tion and high regard r them while pleased smiles can still light kindly eyes? .1-iow shall we honor these ladies. minds and hands ever taken up in their childrens' behalf? Or shall we one day plac- ing flowers on a mound of earth. remember much? "A mother's smile.-e Mother's Your life can hold no greater bliss.

NEW JOURNAL INAUGURATED BY THE AMERICAN DIABETES ASSOCIATION

When Dru. Banting and Best -produced insuun. which enabled the diabetic to live out his rvormal life span, the disease diabetes be- came of little further interest to many of us. What we did not rea- lize. and still do not realize, is that hundreds of thousands of diabe- tics. nothwithstanding the boon of insulin. must be careful how they live and anything and every- thing that can help the physician to make them comfortable and safe is greatly needed.

To meet the great heed for ex- tra. information. the American Dis- betes Association has inaugurated Diabetes. the Journal of the Amer- ican Diabetes Association. The new Journal which will appear bimonth- ly beginning with the January- February, 1052. issue, will be do- voted to clinical and research r-- ports on diabetes and related as- pects of medicine. The editor is Dr. Frank N. Allan. Lahey Clinic, Bos- ton. Mass. He will have a distingu- ished editorial board under the chairmanship of Charles H. Best. M. D.. of the University of Tor- onto, oo-discoverer with the late sir Frederick Banting of insulin and its control of diabetu. According to Dr. Best, "The ma- jor purpose of Diabetes will be to give the medical pr , and particularly the practising physic- ian. lnformstion that will help him to improve the treatment of diabetes and allied disorders." The journal will also be of interest to scientists since it will publish many :of the important findings from laboratories working in the pro- blem of these diseases. As with other medical and health journals. Diabetes will include abstracts of papers that appear In scientific papers here and abroad.

It is fitting that the honorary president of the American Diabe- tn Association should be Dr. Elliott P Joslin. Boston. the outstanding- authority in diabetes. As there are at present 30 branches of atfiliate Diabetes Associations throughout the country the news about diabe-
