When we hear II man, especially a
father, slandering a girl OF the town
or neighborhood whom he thinks may
have strayed from the path OF virtue,
we feel like asking him to recall few
acts of his young days and see if
he is not reaping the crop OF wild oats
he then sowed. Because girl is Jolly
and pleasant to her acquaintances is
no reason why she should be estimated
as one OF the kind who prefer dark
ness rather than light. Even if Il
man did think so it is unwise and
wicked to mention it. There is where
many an innocent lass receives the
ostracism OF society-by people talk
ing when they have no business
When man has no good words for
our girls he ought to keep the peram-
bu!ating gabatorium he calls his mouth
closed.

Some communities progress, while
others either stand still Or retrograde e.
Sometimes this is due to natural con-
ditions, but just as often it is due to
the people themselves. A town will
never grow unless the people in it care
something for success. Ii each cares
only for individual prosperity, the
town is destined to become dead. Ii
the live towns are investigated, they
are found to he towns in which the
people have an interest in each
other. They help along public enter
prises both by good will and money
The dead towns are those in which
the people want an indeinnifying bond
guaranteeing a profit OF no less than
ten per cent before they will make an
investment.

mense sums of money are being pour
ed into South Dakota to defeat his re-
election to the Senate. This is the
same Mr.. Pettigrew who recently tried
Dewey by publishing letter from one
of his Filipino correspondents. The
trouble with Pettigrew is that he has

that the South Dakota people pro-
pose to have n representative in the
Senate who will look after their in
terests and not devote his entire time
to encouraging the enemies of his
country.

We picked up card the other day
upon which appeared the following:
off there is a chance to boom business
boom it. Don't be knocker. Don't
pull long face and look as though
you had a sour stomach. Hold up
your head, smile, and hope for better
things. Hide your little hammer, and
try to speak well of others, no matter
how small you may really know your
self to be. When a stranger drops in,
jolly him. Tell him this is the great
est town on earth-and it is. Don't
discourage him by speaking i'll OF your
neighbers or opposition firms. Lead
him to believe he has at last struck a
place where white people live. Don't
knock. Help yourself along by be-
coming popular, and push your friends
with you. It's dead easy. Be good
fellow and soon you will have a pro-
cession OF followers. No man ever
helped himself by knocking other peo-
pie down in character or business. No
man ever got rich by trying to make
Others believe he was the only good
man in town, or the only man in
town who knew anything. You can't
climb the ladder OF success by tread
ing on other peoples corns. Keep off
the corns. You're not the only. There
are others as well as you. There is no
end of fun in Winding your own bust
ness. 1t makes other people like you.
Nobody gets stuck on IL knocker.
Don't knock but push.

OF the total vote cast for presiden-

ton, there will be between 300, 600, 600
and 400,000000, votes by young men
-men on whom will fall the burden
of government in the near future. 1t
Is Of the utmost importance to young
men that they weigh the matter thor
oughly before allying themselves with
any political party. When once iden-
titled with a party the man becomes a
part OF it, and many causes combine
to make him continue with it, though
his better judgment may not approve
of his doing SO. 1t is therefore advisa-
BILE to think well over the matter.
