LESSONS FOR A YoUNGMANs LIFE

In the Young Man for January Professor
BIackle publishes an interesting article on
"Reminiscences Of his youth. Like a ladys
lettet, the most important part Of 1t IS IN the
postscript IN which he sets downa few 1.-THE rules
of conQuct winch have guided hlm through
life. and which Ire has no doubt may have con-
tubuted largely to any ~praiseworthy work
that he has been able, III the course OF a long
life TO achieve.
/. Never indulge the notion that you
have any absolute right to choose the sphere
or The circumstances IN which you are 70 put
70, til your W Of social action; but let your
day wisuom of lie be III making a good use
Of the opportunities gwen you.
IL. We live IN a real, aud a solid, ana a
truthful world. In such a world only truth
in the long run, can hope to prosper. There
fore ayo4u hes, mere show ana sham, and hol-
low super |tciallty of all kinds, which ls at the
best a painted lie. Let whatever you are and
What e> Ell you do, grow out Of a INN root OF
Truth ana a strong soil OF reality.
IL. Tue nobility Of life is work. We live
in a working world. lhe lazy andidIe man does
not count III the plan Of campaign, My "a
Their worketh h therto and | Work Let that
text be enough.
". Never forget St. Pauls sentence,
Love is the fulfilling Of the law" This is
thu steam of the social machine.
v. But the steam requires regulation. 1t
is regulated by Intelligence and moderation.
Healthy action is always a balance OF forces;
and all extremes are dangerous; the excess OF
a good thing being often more dangerous IN
it's social consequences than the excess OF
what is radically bad.
VI. Do one thing well; "be a whole man.!
as Chancellor Thurlow said, ''Po one thing at
one time. Make clean work, and leave no
tags. Allow no delays when you are at
thing: do it and be done with it.
VII. Avoid miscellaneous reading. Read
nothing that you do not care to remember
and remember nothing that you do not mean;
10 use.
VII. Never desile to appear clever an
make q show of your talents before men. be
honest, loving, kindly and sympathetic III all
yol say and do. Cleverness will fow:from
you naturally, If you have It; and applause
will come to you unsought from those who
know what to applaud but the applause OF
fools is to be Stunned.
TX. Above all things avoid fault-fnding
and a habit of criticism. Let your rule Ill re-
ference to your social sentiments besimply this
prayfor the bad, pity the weak, enjoy the good
and reverence both the great and the small,
as playing each his part aptly in the
divine, symphony of the universe. -DsmerarG

Notes From the High School.

AS the mornings grow longer thS
teachers begin to grumbie about
pupils starting TO school too early.
There is very pointed school law
upon this subject, and the High
School is determined to see it carried
out. The bell is the time for pupils
TO leave home, and, if they want to
escape penalty, they must strictly
obey its summons. Lettering has
always been condemned, and the
teachers are determined to put stop
to it. 1t is always safe, and in fact it
is best to remain at home until the
first bell.
The composition work increases as
the seS sion advances, and the Ninth
Grade is very much exercised over
the notice that they have to have an
original graduating essay prepared
thirty days before the close OF school.
There has always been a great deal of
original work done in the High
School, and the Ninth Grade have
been well drilled ever since they
were members of the first grade; SO
they have little to bear in getting
ready for the close of school. 1t i
not yet recorded that they will all
graduate. but we hope they will all
have the honor of doing so.
A certain member OF the "Band of
Three society slightly damaged her
complexion, the other day, by mis-
taking phial of carbolic acid for a
bottle of gIycerine.
The picture fever continues, ana
hundreds of tiutypes are passed
around every day. The teacners
very often capture a few, zoo, and
sometimes they actually keep them
for good.
Miss Henderson visited Mt. Ple@s-
ant last Friday and Saturdac. We
heard that she had a mignty fine
time, and we believe it, for she says
the Mt. Pleasant boys and girls are
nearly perfect.
The monitors hope that spring
time viii hurry and get here, Tor they
are tired collecting and delivering 50
many hey cloak@ and shawlS.
" lad the fire drill last Wednes-
dav, and got ont of the building in
fine time as we'll as Order. Ia about
five minutes from the time the alarm
was given every pupil was in place
again and the WORK g0iag on as usual.
The Ninth Grade have finished
| EvangeIine and are now reading
Lalla ROukh.
Rush Gresham and John Cant
came over from the UstiV~rsitF
| Wednesday, to see the Sth Grade
Their visit was highly apPrecia jed as
they came to invite them 10 visit the
! school next Friday.
! One day this week we had general
exercise in Hail No, 4, embi acing the
answering of test questions. SuPt

The Farmers Bank.

The promoters of the Farmers
Bank are meeting with encouraging
success. Parties are signing the doe
ument in the possession of Mr. Hayes
very fast; affixirg the amount of
stock taken opposite their signature.
About twenty thousand dollars was
subscribed last Monday. This will
undoubtedly be popular bank when
once established. Columbia will
then have three excellent banking
institutions, with a good working
capital in each We would be glad
to see other institutions of this kind
Established, tor the more money that
can be thrown in the channels OF
business the better for all classes
There are a goodly number of va
cant lots il the business part OF the
city, and it is hoped that the increased
supply of money will have ten
dency t. stimulate investments, and
the building of substantial brick
| business houses.

The Waverly Fair and Driving Park

County not very fattering just now.
1t is said that there are yet 1900 BUSH
els of wheat remaining in the hands OF

Warren County.
The Obion Courier says farmers re-
port the wheat crop as now growing
finely and the prospect more encourag-
ing than a few weeks ago.

| Tho locality is n)tpriDuSly tough one,
and the officers hal expected trouble

row was trouble between white nm

trouble.

An attempt was made recently TO
wreck a passenger train on the LOUIS
Vile G Nashville road near Station
Depot. It was done by placing a heavy
timber on the track on trestle. Had
the train been thrown from the track
at that place the wreck would have
been terrible, as the train was running
fifty miles an hour, and the II estle is 20
feet high.

Three of the negroes who were con-
cerned in the shooting of deputy
sherifTs at Memphis the first of the
week, have been shot, being taken from
the county Jail at night by company
of masked men numbering about
seventy-five. 1t has taken much
trouble on the part of the officers TO pre-
vent riot in the vicinity where the
first trouble occurred. BY this time it
is thought that the worst danger is
over, though both whites and negroes
are still going armed, and white citi-
zens have advised Mr.. Barrett the,
white man whose difficulty with a
negro started the trouble, TO leave the
vicinity.
