EDS. RECoRD-U UNION: The members of
Good Templar Lodge No. 261 held their
second anniversary Saturday evening, jan
uary 18th, i'll the Good Templars Hall at
this place. There was q good attendance,

Nellie Bayles, titled For Me-" it was
well rendered and loudly applauded. A

was well rendered. Instrumental solo by
Miss Florence Beach, which was listened
to with much attention. A recitation by

There is a great practical truth en-
bodied in the following: Life is a
school, and it is only through its strug-
giles, its mishapsand disappointments,
that we learn human nature, our
selves and our fellowmen. 1t is only
through repeated falls that the child
learns to stand alone and walk. He
who is the architect of his own good
fortune, character and destiny, is al
ways a great man, and if we examine
we. shall find that ninety-nine out Of
every hundred of such men have be-
gun life without any other aid than
sound physical, moral andintellectual
constitution, and have also been sue
cessively through almostall the phases
of life, tasting Of poverty, struggling
with disappointments, relegated to
obscurity, and undergoingall thekicks
and cuffs of Outrageous fortune,"
finally, by the development Of their
inherent energies in such a hard,
rough school, rising triumphant over
all obstacles at last.
Many an unwise parent labors hard
and lives sparingly all his life for the
purpose Of leaving enough to give his
children a start in the world, as it is
called. Setting a young man afloat
with money left him by his relatives,
is like trying bladders underth arms
of one who cannot swim; ten chances
to one he will lose his bladders. Give
your childa sound education, and you
have given him what will be of more
value than the wealth of Indies. TC
be thrown upon ones resources is tC
be cast into the lap of fortune, for ones
faculties then undergo development
and display an energy of which they
We're previously insusceptible.
