CLUB TALK.

.ior 10 see now almost universally
,smbers OF the Happyhammer club
,t,n hold Of the spirit of the club
4 10 hammer happiness whenever
xssr.yer you can. The interest shown
rnmIe Edwards is beautiful, and you
n ~ BY his letter how he appreciates
What pleasure it is to think that
Ave helped to make happy one human
shrl There is great deal said about
,,.,rs 10 animals, and certainly it Is
,,,rdIy to be cruel to a poor dumb brute
!. can not even complain of the cruelty,
ngn very often the case that people
N fye so much affection 10 animals have
hi left for their own kind. And |, for
y. tsye far more hope for boy that
M birds eggs from her nest and yet
nod TO the little boy that sits next to
4 Il school than for one who is uukind
Alp'ess schoolmates. and yet fondles
!. saes for his dogs. To be cruel in
sitg aud tormenting smaller boys or
M than yourself is to do harm both
M, You encourage cruelty in yourself,
d. ycu make the boy or girl you tease
.su and cross and fall of hatred fol
\. 50 the harm works both ways and
rs 90 forever.
Mt the good you do goes on forever as
vi Is the harm, and often if you knew
b. far the influence OF one kind act OF
rls has gone, you would be amazed. See
fv many Haps there are, not only in
fns, but in Illinois, Nebraska, Georgia,
'rEsssee and many other far off States.
'sL 10 helping Jimmie, you have helped
b Haps In all these States to think OF
big kindness for some one near them,
pi 80 the good will spread. The cid
eT Of the pebble thrown into the center
lake Is good one--the ripples caused
Tie pebbles dropping into the water
rlir and widen until they reach the oor-
IN Of the lake, ana then they tell the
GH 10 sweet whisper, OF the pebble
ti FELL into the water The pebble r
n ;ght Of, but its influence is still felt.
10 influence We exert around us is one
flhs most serious things In life to think
i We help another to do wrong, we
b RESPONSIBLE for that wrong to large
Errt-f we help another to be strong |
be right-ah, how beautiful that Is.
l. very thought OF it braces us to go OIL !
lie right ourselves and each time that
!, choose the right instead of the wrong |
elie US stronger TO do so when the |
tsa comes up again, So take courage, |
very often il takes deal of courage
y right, but hold on to It and do what |
fia and you will have the comfort OF |
NFirg that you have not only made |
Eissli better and stronger, but have |
sN another to resist evil.
