my. how time q go. No wonder
you have forgotten great deal about
your mother and her ways.
clear Away the Rubbish.
But. come. let us take our axes to-
day and clear away some Of that rub
bish. Let us explore the old path
which once led up to the old home
stead. When the first settlers entered
the Michigan woods they used to
"blaze" the trees. That means that with
their axes they would chop a notch
out of this tree and that and the other
tree as they went along. Thus, if they
could not find the right place to settle
in one direction, they would retrace
their steps by these notches and start
out in the woods from another direc-
ton. Well these old paths which once
led up to the homes of our childhood
may not have been used for a quarter
of a century, but they can be easily
followed. Our parents "blazed" them
all the way along.
As I follow these "blazings" l find
they were morally straight paths. They
were as straight as a die. Your father
may not have had much money. In all
probability you, as farmers boy, re-
member him for the most part clothed
in Overalls and a wOolen shirt. But
under that rough exterior there beat
a heart as true as honesty itself Look
ing back over the long years, you re-
member him travelling that straight
path" You cannot think of one act
your father ever did which was dis
honorable. People sometimes said he
was close" in reference to money. He
had to be close in order TO furnish
bread enough for his babies mouths.
You cannot remember your father once
losing his temper and uttering male
dictions unless perhaps it was on the
day when he found that a neighbor,
who was left an executor by law. had
robbed a poor widow of her all. All,
that old father Of yours may have
worn shabby clothes and may have
been poor in pocket, but he was rich
in character. The path he Travelled to
and from the old homestead was al
ways a straight path" Though the
last will and testament which he
signed made provision for a few trim
kets, Bible and a gold headed cane,
and perhaps a snuffbOX, that father
left you the grandest legacy a boy
ever received. He left to you an un-
tarnished name, the example Of a
fathers life well and honestly lived.
Even rs l speak now and talk about
his past life a blush mantles your
cheek. When you contrast his pure
life with yours and you remember
some of the mean, sneaking things you
are accustomed to do in your dealings
with your fellow men. you say: II
wish had always followed in the foot
steps of my father. l wish l had al
ways followed in his straight path"
Why don't you, my brother? Why
don't you now? Are the thickets too
strong about you? Are the jungles of
sin too dense? God is telling you to-
day to seek the old paths. Ask for
the old path. the straight path. the
honest path. which your father once
'rnd Seek it now!

A Modest Giver.

Abram S. Hewitt alone knew who
gave S250.OOO to New York's Cooper
Union last year, and very likely no one
else ever will know. The story as he
told it was that after Mr.. Carnegie's
gift Of 100000 he was wondering
where the next $3OO.0OO should come
from when "a gentleman whom have
long known. who had never manifested
any special interest In Cooper Union.
called at my house" and after chat
and cup Of tea said. "By the way,
have got something for you. a little
gift for Cooper Union" 'and to my in
tense astonishment he handed me $780,
0O0." II was a certified check on a
trust company. Mr.. Hewett turned It
over to the corporation and never told
any one who the modest giver was.

sake as well as your own, to live
good, true, pure, noble, Christian life.
Have you kept your vowf Are you

as you did when you were engaged to
her? Are you helping her to set the
right example before your children

man. you made a promise to her and to
God on the night Of your wedding
Will you seek the old path of conse-

days of your courtship and ended on
the night you took your heart love as
a bride from her fathers home?
Keep Your Pledges.
But there is still one more path /
want you to seek. That is the one
which led down by the cradle Of your
children. When your FIRST child was
born. if you had the least spark Of
manhood in your makerA you wanted
to be a good man for yo~, 5aby's sake.
Even the lowest form OF human being
feels the uplifting power when child
is born to him In the graveyard Of
Hennlker. y. H., can be found tomb
stone with the name, MARY, wife of
Thomas Wallace" chiseled upon it.
The history of that name is this In
June, 1920 a ship was sailing across
the Atlantic 1t was attacked and
boarded by pirates. The crew was
strapped to the masts, preparatory to
being thrown overheard and drowned.
Just before the wholesale murder was
to take place the captain of the pirates
found in Il staterOom a woman by the
name of Mrs. James Wilson, with
newborn baby lying by her side. lie
instantly asked her, is it boy or a
girl?" "A girl" was the answer. "Will
you let me name herY the rough pirate
asked. "If you will | will unstrap
your husbands crew and let your ship
90 free" Yes" was the answer.
Then" said he. Il name her Mary"
Mary Wilson grew up TO be an old wO
man and died at the age of ninety-fOur
years us Mrs. Mary Wallace and was
buried in the little graveyard at Hen

saved that crew on account of the
memory of his own little daughter, SO
the birth of every frstbOrn child
makes almost every father pledge him
self to God to be Il better and purer
man and Il noble Christian. Have you
kept the vow you made when your

that which you once Travelled when 60

in your going. When the call of the

way up from the bottom of stream.
They would come nearer and nearer to
your ear, as the bubbles come nearer

would seem to burst. You would first
hear those notes when you would be
riding toward the town. Father and

TO-DAY THE FAIR.

The gates at the fair grounds swing
open to the public for the first time
today, and Judging by the extent and
variety of the exhibits this county
is to have the best county fair held in
Montana this year. If YOU ever had
any doubt about this county being
The richest county in the richest state
in the union go to the fair and be
convinced.
AS an educational institution the
fair is unequaled for even those who
have lived in the valley for years
will be astonished at the great yarie-
ty of products on exhibition, and
everything of the finest quality.
Every citizen of the county should
visit the fair for at least two reas-
ons, first because it will give him a
better understanding of the future
greatness of the county. and. second.
because he should have sufficient
patriotic pride to help by his pres
ence in making the fair a success.
Another and more selfish reason is
that it will pay, for the amusement
and instruction gained will be worth
many times the price of admission.
Usually the first day of a fair is
given up to the arranging of exhibits

A GENEROUS GIFT,

The c. e. Conrad Memorial GEM
etery being constructed by Mrs Con

be one Of the most beautiful spots in
the whole state of Montana, and its
construction will add not a little to
the attractiyeness of the Flathead
valley. The tract consists of "A acres

Mrs Conrad is designed to enhance
the natural beauty of the site The
work has been laid out by Mr.. Arthur

in his line, of national reputation

will form a fitting memorial TO the
founder Of Kalispell who selected it

lslature to pass a law providing for
the government of cemetery associa-
tons along the lines laid down by
Mr. Hobart. which plan has been
found to be most successful in other
parts of the country.
The whole project is worthy of the
broad minded generosity of the don
