Do You Encourage Trusts

By insuring your property in
"board" companies? Do you not
know that if it were not for the "mut-

that your insurance rate would be at
least so per cent more than it is? F..
P. Olney represents a line of non

furnish you first class insurance at a

your advantage to see him as your

The Minneapolis Journal Junior is
encouraging the writing of essays in
the lower grades of our public schools
and prizes are awarded for the best
papers sent in to that publication. A
number have already been sent in
from many schools in the Northwest,
including some from the Willmar
schools. Below we publish a paper
written by a Willmar pupil of the
Fifth grade, which appeared in last
Saturdays Junior among those re-
ceiving honorable mention. The sub
ject written on was "The Day Whose
Influence is Best.''
CHRISTMAS INCLUDES THEM ALL.
Thanksgiving and Christmas, you
all know, are holidays in the United
States. Thanksgiving, on account of
the thankfulness of the Pilgrims, and
Christmas because it is Christ's birth
day. OF these two 1 think Christmas
has the greater good, for on that day
it is customary to give presents to
anyone we wish to, and by doing this
we can make many poor people happy
as we'll as our friends and relatives.
On Thanksgiving Day we can only
furnish dinner to the poor, although
we may also send other things if we
wish; but on Christmas everyone ex-
poets to receive and send presents, as
on that day the wise men brought
presents of gold and silver to Jesus
to show that they were g LAD that God
had sent Jesus to us.
We can make many people happy
at Christmas time, and in doing sc
are made happy ourselves. How
many children are made happy by the
sight OF Christmas tree, loaded with
beautiful presents and lighted with
many shining candles. On Christmas
Day we have our turkey and plum
pudding, the same as on Thanksg1v.
ing, and we have services in the
churches on both these days, but only
on Christmas do we have tree, and
can hang up our stockings for good
old Santa Claus to FIJI. Christmas,
then, with its Santa Claus, makes the
most people happy of any day in the
whole year, and therefore does the
greater good.

The Mission of Literature.

Tennyson' s Gin Memoriam" is as no.
table an example as modern literature af
fords of this first and noblest mission of
letters. Though entitled an elegy and
written to commemorate the virtues Of
the poets personal friend-and in this
sense appropriately restricted in its
range-it takes up and develops the
great ideas of God and the uuive. Sc; of
man and the soul and duty and destiny;
of life and death and. immortality; of
good and evil, right and wrong; of sci
ence, philosophy, ethics and religion, so
as, in word, virtually to cover the
spacious area of truth and to make the
reader feel that he is dealing with the
profoundest problems of earth and
heaven. Hence Sin Memoriam" is some
thing more and greater than a mere
poem. 1t is a kind of compendium of
theology and philosophy. of the divini-
ties and humanities i'll new and striking
form, furnishing food for thought to ey-
cry thinking man who reads it.
Hence to our mind the fame of Ten
nyson and its permanence rest more
upon such product as this than upon
any other of his works MAUD, ""The
Princess, Lady Godiva," ''Enoch
Arden" are choice and attractive
poems, but scarcely to be cited in the
same connection with this poetic mas
terpiece.
Similarly rich in these qualities is
the marvellous genius of the Shakespear-
can drama, making that classification
just which insists upon placing Shakes
peare by himself, as having no legiti-
mate rival in the province of English
literature. Most of the Shakespearean
plays evince this first condition of lit
erary greatness in their respective en-
bodiment of some great thought.-Pro-
fessor T. W. Hunt in Forum.

Too Much "Culchah."

A western girl preparing to visit a
friend at the Hub received letter from
her Boston friend which ran like this:
II think | have planned as pleasant a
programme for you, my dear, as would
be possible. You will arrive Monday
morning. That afternoon we shall have
luncheon of the Quiet Hour club in
your honor, at which 30 literary women
will be present. Monday evening we
shall attend lecture by Professor -
on The Semitic Races Tuesday fore
noon we are going to a meeting of the
Browning club, and in the afternoon we
are booked for a musicale in behalf of
the Colored Old Ladies' home Tuesday
evening we shall wind up the two days
with a lecture by Professor - on
'Esoteric Buddhism, which l am sure
will be the greatest treat of the whole
two days.
AS soon after the receipt of this letter
as she could recover strength enough to
hold a pen the western girl wrote her
friend as follows: Il am afraid, my
dear girl, that you will have to modify
your programme, or else l can't come
to you. What little intellect the grip
has left me l don t propose to wreck in
any such manner as you have arranged
for. '-Chicago Inter Ocean.

ARTISTIC DINNER GIVING.
The Ideal Dinner Has a Simple Menu and
Perfect Service.

The Ideal Dinner Has Simple Menu and
q Perfect Service.
The ideal dinner company is never
large. Six has been said to be the mag
ic number, but eight and even ten are
perfectly manageable, both in the mat
ter of smooth service and in the higher
harmonies. Do not confine your choice
to intimate friends, but add to their
pleasure and your own the fresh expert
ence of meeting new spirits, whose con-
geniality you have OWNED.
A really artistic dinner, it is the
writer's conviction, should never ex-
coed four courses including the coffee.
The scheme of the dinner is that each
dish shall be perfect, worthy of the pal
ate and of the appetite, enjoyed to the
full for its merits, and not trif1ed with
and instantly forgotten. The second
point in Importance is that dish shall
he us attractive in appearance as it is
perfect i'll flavor, that it should be
placed upon the table as an added en-
joyment and Hospitality served by host
or hostess. The third point, also of i'm
portanca, is that dinner should be sea-
sonable-not an anticipation of seasons
for every chosen article should be at
it's very best. A lean, half shriveled
january tomato, which has i'll borne its
travels, is but forlorn apology for the
plump and luscious summer product
certainly not fitted for an "artistic"
appearance Morris Kretschmar

ences as publisher 'reader, a few
years ago. in a recent conversation with
friend, who. told me that Mr.. John
Morley had read "Mr. Isaacs' for
Messrs Macmillan and had advised
against it's publication on the ground
that while it would be most creditable
book to have on their list, there would
be no sale for it. In the light of subse-
quent events this is rather amusing, but
it only proves that even so astute crit
ic as MIR. Morley is not infallible-in
other words, that he is human.
