TIE WAY TO WIN.

We do not share 10 the opinion that
this war is cure for all of our ills
should we enlist, and fight bravely; al
though it will help as ell other auxil-
iary agencies have done.
The progress of race of people is
gagged by its intelligence, its educa-
ton, it's money, and it's regard for
those fundamental principles OF right
and justice, which go 90 make up
great nation.
We must be industrious, frugal and
GoD-fesring. We must not only en-
gage in farming but also in industrial
pursuits.
The higher education should not be
neglected; but the masses should labor
aud accumulate, in order that those
who are attending the best UNIVERSE
tiesin the land may find field Of use
fulness amongst their own people when
they graduate.
We should be religious, moral, hon.
est, and above all, we should seek to
make friends amongst the people of
this country, by our courtly bearing
and good manners. We can win our
way if we are polite and obliging with
an eye to money-getting and money
saving. The slogan should be. Buy
land ; engage in business.
