A Little Boy Moves a Great Ship.

.. .. ia
We have somewhere read that at an
English dockyard, great ship was to be
launched; an immense multitude assembled
to see it glide down the slides that were to
carry it into the water. The blocks and
wedges were knocked away, but the mas
sive hull did not stir, and there was much
disappointment. just then little boy
ran forward and began to push the ship
with all his might. The crowd broke out
into laugh of ridicule, but ii SO happen
ed that the vessel was. almost ready to
move, the few pounds pushed by the lad
were only needed to start it. and away it
went into the water. This teaches an i'm :
portant lesson to every boy and girl. You
often think that the little you can do, is of
no account. You don't know that. A lit
tie word, kind act, however small, may
be, and often is, the turning period in
ones own history, and ofton of great i M
portance in its influence upon others. !. A
good deed, or the resistance of a tempta-
ton, may start up good thoughts in the
mind of playmate, which may suggest
other thoughts and deeds. The train of
thought in ones mind, is like atrain Of
cars. The little frog or tongue on the
track, no larger than your finger at its
point, may direct the locomotive upon the
right track. or if wrongly placed, it may
turn the engine aside and hurl it down a
steep bank to fearful destruction. So the
smallest word or deed may start the mind
on right or wrong track. Dear young
friends, your little words, little thoughts
and little deeds are important. Strive
earnestly to be right. noble, generous. al
all times, in secret and public. When in
the future we come to see the great map
of human actions and influences spread
out, it will then be found that you are
daily and hourly exerting an influence
that is telling upon the character of your
brothers, sisters, playmates, upon your
parents, upon all you come in contact
with. Give good push at the siip, do
good deed, no matter how tri6ing, when,
ever and wherever you can, and trust te
God for the Easult.
