The Education of Boys.

u the Delineator for November
", Theodore W. Birney has a sug-
-,st;re ape on the Education of
p,rs as Future Fathers and Citizens.
The cist of her argument is that
bovs seldom receive the sympathy to
which they are entitled-not a maud
I'm sentimental sympathy that is
calculated to spoil the child, but an
;n+oIIirent comprehension of his
needs and an interest in his dOings
and belongings. Her conclusion is
that if parents will only take a gen
nine interest in all things that in
tprpst their boys, they can hold their
confidence. and so long as they pos
spss that they can be reasonably sure
that their sons will not go far
wrong. Parents are wont to look on
the problems of youth with the eyes
Of an adult. How much good would
result to many little fellows if their
parents would come down to their
view point. or come up perhaps, rec
ognizing the limitations of their in
experience, and Judging their deeds
and miSdccds in the light of it. The
rule Of the rod is past, and inasmuch
as the new order of things has
brought much happiness into the
lives Of the little ones, so will a bet
ter understanding of the boy nature,
on the part of parents benefit them
mmcaSurably.

Twain's Little Joke.
Nash Co., n. c..

Bishop William Croswell Doane, of
Albany, recently entertained J.
Pierpont Morgan at Northeast Har-
Dor.
Bishop Doane was at one time the
rector of an Episcopal church in
Hartford, and the services at this
church Mark Twain would OCCASION
ally attend. Twain one Sunday
played a joke upon the rector.
CDR. Doane," he said, at the end
of the services, 81 enjoyed your ser
mon this morning. I welcomed it
like an old friend. I have, you
know, a book at home containing
every word of it."
"You have not" said DR.. Doane.
Il have So" said the humorist.
"Well, send that book to me. I'd
like to see it."
"In send it." Twain replied.
And he sent, the next morning,
an unabridged dictionary to the
rector.-Boston Post.

ing, as if trusting in a Fathers are,
fall asleep in peaceful slumbers.
At morning they wake early to greet
the glowing sun and wave their little
heads in e%xultation as they welcome
the kisses of the sunbeams, teaching
us gratitude In rising persevering-
ly from it's humble surroundings
through successive stages of germ,
plant, stem and bud life, and finally
bursting in beauteous bloom high
above its stern beginnings, and by it's
worth attracting to itself the honey
seekers and the ~admiring gaze of
the world-it indeed teaches a worthy
lesson of success.

Sheer Waste of Money.

At the Metropolitan Club, of
Washington, one evening, Justice
Harlan, of the Supreme Court, had
introduced to him a well-known New
York business man who is given to
boasting of the large income he en-
joys.
With the apparent purpose of i'm
pressing those about him, the New
Yorker remarked that, as near as,
he could tell, he supposed his income
exceeded 100000. "And I simply
have to make that amount" he add
ed. "Why, with my expenses, it
costs me $4,000 a year to livel"
"Dear me-" said Justice Harlan
blandly. Really, that's too much!

The Presidents Letter.

There is so much that is interest
ing in our foreign correspondence
this week, that we will give space to
it knowing all will find it interesting,
as it gives a glimpse of the Sun
shine work in other States, and is
part of the business constantly de-
handing the time and attention of
the State President; and while it
may not seem to oncern us quite so
directly as do North Carolina hap
penings, it is all a part of our great
society work. With the holiday sea-
son rapidly approaching we will have
all we can do to talk about ourselves
from now on till Christmas. So let
us this week consider a few pleasant
things from sister States.
Let me share with you Miss Pit
kin's congratulatory letter; she is
State Sunshine President for Louis
lana. She welcomes the Old North
State into the ranks of the Sunshin-
ers and gives US a neighborIy hand
shake. Here it is:

A MEMORIAL TO BILL NYE

The erection Of a monument at
Bill Nye's grave, which is between
Asheville and Hendersonville, is I'M
der the management of the North
Carolina Division of the I. S. S.,
and as Mrs. Nye expresses it: "It is
appropriate that the Sunshiners
should do this in memory of the man
who did so much to cheer his fellow
man."
Next week full information in re-
gard to the movement will be given
in this department.
Among the lady readers of our
Progressive Farmer are many kind
hearts. Will you not join our North
Carolina Sunshine ranks and give
your name to swell the number of
those who are trying to bring hap
piness into homes and hearts? Come,
help us to
"Scatter sunshine all along over the
way,
To cheer and bless and brighten
every passing day"
Miss O., of Iredel County, writes
US, II was so glad to see a Sunshine
Column in The Progressive Farmer.
Ny cousin takes that paper, and I
can pass it on to other farmers"
Then she adds, II hope you will tell
me of anything I can do" and in
side the letter are ten shining red
stamps.
Letters like these are indeed sun
beams to headquarters.

If you have any 'cheer" in the
way of books, magazines, newspa-

not need, hat may brighten some

The Flower.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:

The flower teaches us a lesson. It's
origin is humble. 1t is formed of the
lowly earth. From a mass of gravel,
water and earth it comes forth to
fulfill its mission in the world. 1t
bursts a tiny bud or stem from it's
crusty prison home, and gets its
n~ourishment from the ugly soil. Aft
ter its appearance above the surface
its existence is more pleasant. After
a short uneventful growth it reaches
maturity. Then comes a pause in
the life Of the plant. 1t is prepar-
ing for the one great object of life.
1t pauscs for development. The
stem and bud form themselves COM
pIete; there is a systematic arrange
ment Of the whole. Then the latent
and reserve forces are summoned,
and in n preparation effort it
throws out its life and being in
lovely, fragrant blossoms.
Oh. how it smiles on a sunny
morning as it rocks by the garden
wall. l watch them as they sleep
IN the valleys, rocked in the cradle
OF the winds; or as they wave on the
rocky hills, fed with honey-dew,
Kissed by the loving sun, and my
Soul goes out in t~hankfulness with
lnelr grateful odors as they are watt
Cd by the breezes toward the skies!
