And then remember son, that the world Is

feet stuck out OF the dormer windows: that
when they died the old globe went whtrling on.
and not one man In ten million went to the fu-
neral or even heard OF the death. Be as smart
as you can, OF course. Know as much as you
cylinder heads; shed the light OF your wisdom
abroad in the world, but don't dazzle people
with it. And don't imagine thing is so simply
because you say 1t Is. Don't be too sorry for
your father because he knows so much less
than you do; remember the reply of DR.. Way
land to the student of Brown university who
said 1t was an easy enough thing to make prov
cribs such as Solomon wrote: make q few

heard that the young man made any. Not
more than two or three, anyhow. The world
has great need Of young men, but no greater
need than the young men have Of 1t. Your
clothes fit you better than your fathers fit

stylish, your mustache is heater, the cut of
your hair Is better, and you are prettier, oh,
far prettier than spa" But, young man, the

They have been here before. Don't be so mod

In the year city clergyman has to do so. His

OF labor and administration, often as large and
as difficult on its merely secular side as many
layman's, without one instants pause save
that which the often sleepless Sunday night has
given him. That men survive this thing even
with the luxury as it is called, of summer
vocation, Is often simply marvellous. But that
such vacation is a mere luxury that 1t is any
thing else than an absolute physical and mental
necessity, Is matter about which there really
can be no question. A summer vacation to a
city pastor is sacred right, and as such he
ought to claim 1t and improve 1t. Let his peo-
pie see to it that he has 1t, and that he may let
them concert with him such plans as shall meet
every reasonable requirement for the summer
time, and courageously resist those other re-
qu1rementS which are neither reasonable nor
humane'
