Educate chllaren 70 High Ideals.

We are too ready to impart instruc-
ton to children from low moods and ON
a low plane, because we do not ourselves
habitually dwell in the latitude of the
uplands. Motives of policy, of vanity,
of seeming instead of being right, enter
into our own lives and, alasi poison the
lives Of the little ones at the fountain.
A grand life, brave example, SPLEEN
did instance of fortitude, of self abnega-
ton, of courage against odds is never in
vain. 1t is an object lesson that flames
out from the sky, as the planet amid the
host of lesser stars. Whether it be an
arctic or an African explorer, the leader
of forlorn hope, the missionary living
among the island lepers, or the army
nurse, leaving home and luxury to min
lister to the wounded and soothe the
dying, the noble ideal is uplifted before
the eyes of those who are yet in the in
itial stages, and whose characters are
not yet in the mold Of destiny.
This thought of the lofty ideal gives
the chief value of our annual Decoration
Day. giving us pause amid the pomp and
ease of peace, that we may think not of
the pageantry of war, but of its suffer
ings, its fever and thirst, its rigors of
cold and furnace heats, its weary
marches, fierce battles and the patriot
ism which alone condones its bitter woe
and the mourning that follows in it's
track. -Harper's Bazaar.
