The Boy Believed In Gods Promise, but
Was a Bit Scared. 49,.
Boys-that is, small boys-have queer
ideas in their little heads, often finding
expression in unique speech. That
they are truthful, or at least intend to
be SO, goes without saying. During the
recent local flood little boy about 6
years old stood at the window watching
the rain as it rained. It seemed to him
that he had never seen anything like it;
had never in his brief experience no.
ticed such strong indications Of a regu
lar old fashioned flood. Finally he con-
fided his fears to his mother, asking if
she didn't think that God was going to
drown out the world again.
Here was the golden opportunity for
impressing upon the mind of con6ding
childhood the teachings Of the Bible. So
she said calmly, ''Don't you remember,
Archibald, that you learned in Sunday
school that God promised that he
wouldn't drown theworld again?' The
little fellow watched the increasing rain
O moment in silence while he pondered
earnestly on the momentous question.
EYES, he said slowly, yes, I s'pose
I've got to believe what God says, but
butt and he shut his lips hard

Winter Evenings.

Those engaged in literary OF desk
work in the daytime are apt to be too
tired to use their eyes at night. For
these music, whist or some semiactive
game is the best preparation for sound
sleep. e.
But the majority Of persons do not
sit at desk and write or add up figures
all day, fortunately for themselves.
They are actively Employed; conse-
quently intellectual work for two hours
in the evening will be real play to them.
For such there is the invaluable debat-
ing and literary society, blessed inher-
itance from the fathers Of this republic.
The walls Of log cabins have many a
time echoed to the eloquence of young
men who were there trained to fill the
highest places in this republic. The
town and village literary and debating
society has lost none Of its power Of Gull
ture and enlightenment. May it con-
tinue to shine forever! It reaches its
highest point Of interest and excellence
when persons of both sexes are men,
bers Of it. 's-..a...
Every village, however small and
poor, can have reading club. The
members may lend one another the pc
riodicals each can afford to take and SO
each will receive all. But the happiest
results can be reached when members
assemble together and take turns read
ing aloud the late magazines or inter
esting books Two readers might be
chosen for each evening. The American
voice would thus get what it sadly
needs-practice in speaking distinctly,
in opening the mouth and forming the
words with the tip Of the tongue in
stead of back in the throat. Thus would
come refined, cultivated tones. There
should be critic for each evening, who
in wholly good natured way'woul(
point out mispronunciations or jumble(
words and sentences. Did it ever occu!
to you that not one American in a hun
dred can read we'll aloud? So form you
reading club, now that the long even
ings have closed around US with thei
darkness.
There Is something else every village
however poor and small, ought to have
too, and that is an evening school. Mos
of the larger towns have one now, bu
the system should be extended. TIL
evening school will bring to working
young men and women the opportunit
of their lives to perfect themselves il
arithmetic, bookkeeping and penman
ship and in the knowledge Of their owl
country. It is easy to start such evenin
classes anywhere.

THE GALLANT LIFE CRAFT.

mometer dropped to 16 degrees, and
soon the clothing Of the surfmen, the
harness and tow rope as we'll as the oars
and poles became stiff with an icy coat
ing. The wagon to which the rope was
attached also became weighted and
clogged with ice, so that the driver,
having his hands busy in managing the
team, couldn't keep his place on board
without help.
It was o'clock when the team pull
ed up opposite the wreck. Before at
tempting rescue it was necessary for the
surfmen to beat their clothing and the
oars, thwarts and rowlocks of the life
boat with heavy sticks in order to crack
and loosen their thick scales of ice.
Meanwhile signals had been given to
cheer the survivors on the wreck, three
Of whom could be seen clinging to the
hillock Of ice out in the surf, for such
the frost covered bow Of the schooner
appeared to be. -a
The trip Of the boat to the wreck was
the fortunate event Of the rescue, for, al-
though the sunken schooner was sur
rounded with wreclSage held to her by
lines and pounding up and down in the
heaving surf, the gallant life craft bore
through it and brought up alongside the
forerigging without a serious collision.
Three men at the point Of perishing
and too far gone to display any interest
in what was taking place crouched in
the lee Of the bulwark. with dead
shipmate half buried in ice at their
feet. The deck was covered with ice,
and at a motion from Keeper Fish the
poor fellows loosed their holds and slid
across to the rail above the lifeboat,
where strong arms received them. One
of them appeared to be crazed, and on
finding himself safe asked after his cap
tain. Taking hint, the surfmen ex
amined the wreck further and discover

mate, who had persisted Of cold early !.

A Matchless Engine.

!. At Jonkoping, in Sweden, is the
home of the tandstickors, which have
almost superseded all the other match
manufactures in Europe. Here is an
enormous engine which daily produces
/, 900, 900 boxes Of Swedish matches.
This wonderful machine receives the
raw material namely, blocks Of wood,
at one end, and after awhile gives up at
the other the matches neatly arranged
in their boxes, ready to be dispatched
to the utternost parts of the world. -

the land. The cold increased, and the
waters dashing over the men soaked
their clothing and soon turned to ice.
The ropes and rails and everything
which offered hold were coated with
iAe. The decks were ankle deep with
freezing slush, and none but the hardi-
est frames could stand the ordeal. One
sailor fell to the deck a corpse frozen
to death.
Three seamen and the mate, father Of
the drowned captain, now remained. 1t
was o'clock in the forenoon, time for
landsmen to be stirring, and with strain
ed eyes the hopeless fellows looked
shoreward. All at once two persons ap-
peared on the beach gesturing in the di-
rection Of the wreck. On receiving an
swers from the sailors the pair, two
schoolboys, ran off at full speed in diff
ferent directions. One Of the boys while
on the way to school had sighted the
wreck through rift in the snowclouds,
and hailing his fellow had run down to
the beach, On separating one notified
his father, who, in turn, spread the
alarm until it reached Lakeview hotel,
a summer resort on Woods pond. A
telephone carried the news to a postof-

dispatched to Captain W. A. Jenkins, a
lake navigator, who got the news at II
O'Clock. Hosting a flag at the mast

the marshes to alarm the station, some
miles away. The outlook at the station
saw the messenger coming and aroused

OLD HlcKoRY's WAYS.
Two Characteristic Stories Of Jackson's
Bluntness When He Was President.


Bluntness Whom He Was President.
General Armstrong, assistant COM
missioner Of Indian affairs, thinks that
Andrew Jackson was one Of the greatest
men this country ever produced and
has number of stories which were told
him by his uncle. who was an intimate
friend of Old Hickory. One Of them is
very characteristic Of the man.
Lewis Cass, secretary Of war, was
over at the White House one day with
some important papers for the president
to sign, among them being court mar
tial findings.
'''Cass, what is this?' inquired jack
con as he was about to write his name
to the document.
1T is court martial, " answered
Cass.
"What have I to do with it?'' asked
the president.
cit dismisses an officer from the sery-
ice. and the president must sign such or
ders -
Jackson toyed with the paper and
said musingly: ''Dismisses him from
the army, Ell? Why?''
Drunkenness; getting drunk and
falling down on parade or something Of
that kind,' answered the secretary.
"Who ordered the court?" asked Jack
son.

'Who is it?'' inquired the president,
with more interest.
Inspector General Kraun,'' replied
Cass. @-H.~

friend Kraun! Cass, just read what

The secretary read the usual form OF
the court martial sentence in such cases.
The president then took the paper and
wrote across the bottom where he was
about to sign his name:
''The within findings are disapprov-
ed, and Colonel Kraun is restored tc
his duty and rank. - ..--

Secretary Cass explained that tn

Observance of Thanksgiving.

It is a satisfaction to know that tur-
key formed a part of the first Thanks
giving feast ordered by Governor Brad
ford for Dec. "a, 1921. We are all right
SO far. But there has been of late years
a discussion as to whether the great
baseball games, with their roistering
and in case Of the Yale and Princeton
students the disgraceful scenes that
come after the football play, are the
proper thing for day which was origi-
nally instituted as at least semireli-
gious observance. At any rate, the Yale
faculty objected to the famous annual
game on Thanksgiving because of the
rowdyism Of the students and their
friends in New York city on Thanks
giving evening following the game.
The faculty Of Yale were quite right
in their decision. Such scenes as for
merly attended the great annual Thanks
giving game at New York ought not to
be tolerated at any place Or any time.
There is good authority, though, for
athletic games on Thanksgiving. At the
first Thanksgiving, Dec. "a, new style,
Massasoit and his men were invited to
the pilgrim fathers feast, and much Of
the programme consisted in athletic
sports such as the settlers had been IA
miliar with in England. There was also
a great shooting match, in which the
underlying purpose was to show the In
dams what skillful marksmen the white
men were. -..- ....-
The old notion that a religious life
must be one of gloomy asceticism is
fading out, fortunately for the race.
Such life should be one of joy. The
mistake too many people make is to
think that joy means dissipation and
debauohery. There can be no moro "a
tai mistake. The highest philosophy is
that which gets the most out Of good
things without OVERRIDING them. Pleas
ure instantly reacts and becomes pain
when it is pushed to all extreme.
