It is easy to advise others to do
things which we are not able TO do

for wisdom to do as well as we would
advise others to do and also seeking
for greatness of mind to enable us to

The paper Is very likely TO burst

no difference. as even when the air in
the two glasses IS mixed together it Is,

less pressure

The Value of a Mother.
FOR THE BIG FOLKS
WHO LIKE LITTLE FOLKS

Chicago man told me about little
event in HIS boyhood which seems to
me to be a great event in his life
One day he was playing around the
bench of a carpenter and accidentally
broke the worhman's rule.
Not being discovered he quietly
showed the rule to an unnoticed posi-
ton and left the place.
But later he made a confdant Of his
mother and told her about it. She was
able to show him his error and to get
him to purchase new rule for the
man.
The boy had a mother and she had
his confidence and the man had new
rule-nothing unusual in this.
Yet the man nearly a half century
later thought it worth while to tell
about it and think it worthy Of even
more space than am giving it.
It is suitable for all Of this page and
also big type because it is a starting
point. The necessary basics are SO
few you can count them on your fin
gers.
When a vital start is made in real
wisdom it is more important every
year we look back on ii. We are more
and more grateful to the parents and
teachers who did some very little
thing which created some great condi
tion.
When boy my parents encOuragec
me in memorizing and speaking, at o
Sunday school entertainment, Mons-
gomery's little hymn, Sow in the
Morn Thy Seed. Years later when
perplexed and among strangers that
hymn jumped into my head at the
right time to give me just the en-
couragement l needed to go on and
believe.
That entertainment has made me
ever thankful to that church and my
teacher, the superintendent and my
parents There is sunrise glnrs
around the whole event
Children know more than they hear
and see, and they feel more than they
know The wisdom Of parents speak

yet easily neglected. A wise teacher
can see the home through the man
ners of the child-eyen read the home
opinion of the teacher in the treat
ment received from the scholar. Have
you wondered If well-taught parents
forget that they were taught and
trained at great effort, and let their
children grow up in a wild state?
