tunity to discuss such topics that
will be beneficial to them along their

that there is Il period in a mans life
when the sad recollections of the i'll
spent days of his youthful life cause
him to think and wonder why he has
not made proper use of time in his
boyhood days. This expression |
simply make from the fact that last
week one OF the young men from our
town was refused employment as
brakeman by the P.R.R.Co. Hav-
ing passed all the required exami-
nations very favorably, with the ex-
ception of reading and writing, not
being able to read or write one line
of the reading material which was
presented to him, he was rejected
and another man selected instead.
Had he made proper use OF his time
he would now be in the employ of
the p. II. II. Co. with the probabil-
ity Of holding a good position some
day. Prof G. A. Derr of C.P.C.,
New Berlin, spent Sunday with his
