The secret of success in life is to keep
busy, to be persevering, patient, and un-
firing in the pursuit or calling you are
following. The busy ones may now and
then make mistakes, but it is better to
risk these than be idle and inactive
Keep doing, whether it be at work or
seeking recreation. Motion is life, and
the busiest are the happiest. Cheerful,
active labor is blessing. An old phi
losopher says: "The FREELY only shines
when on the wing; so it is with the
mind; when once we rest we darken." 3"

c. Wood Davis of Sedgwick county is
candidate for secretary of the Kansas state
board of agriculture to succeed Martin
Mohler. Mr. Davis predicts that wheat
will be 3 bushel before the end of
another year, and that, of course has given
him a tremendous pull with the farmers
of Kansas. The rest of the candidates
will have to hustle if they expect to beat
the Goddard statistician. - Kansas City
Star.
The tribute and compliment to Mr..
Davis are well put and fully merited, but
he positively and emphatically repudi-
ates all mention of his name in that con-
nection or any other official position, APP
pointive or elective. He is in no sense
an office-seeker nor would he accept any.
