The first year Of married life is the
most important era for both the hus-
band and wife. AS it is spent, so gen
orally are all the rest Of the years,
as regards their kindly or unkindly
relation to each other. Neither one
alone makes home happy. There must
be great forbearance and love in both
husband and wife, to secure happiness
In the home circle. Home is no para
disc of sweets; the elements of peace
and true happiness are there, and so,
too, are the elements Of diScOrd and
misery; and it needs only the unchar-
table spirit to make it a pandemonium,
or the loving genius to make it para
disc.
Married people should treat each 9TH
err like lovers all their lives-then they
would be happy. Bickering and quar-
reling would soon break off love af-
fairs; consequently lovers indulge in
such only to limited extent Women
should grow more devoted, and men
fonder after marriage, if they have the
slightest idea Of being happy as wives
and husbands. 1t is losing sight Of
this fundamental truth which leads to
hundreds of divorces. Yet many
man will scold his wife who would
never think Of breathing harsh word
to his sweetheart, and many wife
will look glum and morose on her hus-
bands return who had only smiles
and words of cheer for him when he
was her suitor How can such people
expect to be happy?

Waists for Summer.

To make an old waist like new, and
to add a smart touch to new waist,
the shops are selling the most attrac-
tive of 1880 yokes. They are made
with collar and yoke in one piece.
They button up the back, and are
held in place with small pins. These
yokes are seen in tempting variety.
They are made of coarse linen with
the eyelet embroidery, and then again
they come in the sheerest of lawn
with exquisite lace motifs as their
decoration. They are made shirred.
plated or plain, and number are
trimmed with narrow lace insertion
lace beading run with ribbon may be
used, or a very narrow vine of colored
silk embroidery. These 1880 separate
yokes are a welcome change from the
deep lace collars.-Woman' Home

BE STRONG.

Be strong!
We are not here to play, to dream, to drift
We have hard work to do, and loads to lift
Shun rot the struggle; face it. IT'S Gods gift
Be strongi
Say not the days ey-who's to blamef
And fold the hands and acquiesce-O shame!
Stand UP, speak out, and bravely in Gods name
Be strong!
1t matters not how deep ntrenched the wrong
How hard the battle goes, the day how long.
Faint not fight on! Tomorrow the song.

The eleventh annual report of
George B. Alton, state high school
inspector, has 1872 high schools
drawing state aid. The Red wood
Falls high school has an enrolment
of 30 boys and 81 girls, 63 of the
number being residents and 81 non
residents. During last year we
spent 1858 for increasing the facili-
ties of the school, $37 being expend-
ed in the chemistry department,
$34 in the physics, $lt in the bot
any and zoology, $40 for history, ST.
for English literature and $75 for
the general library. The rate of
tax in this district is much lower
than in many of the districts of the
same population, it being Is mills,
while Madelia, for example, has over
% mills, Madison "a mills, Lake
field 18 mills, andPso on down the
list. Mapleton pays the lowest
salary roll, while Hastings is next
on the list. Mr.. Alton makes the
following statement: There is too
much throwing out superintendent
for personal reasons. Men in bus
mess say frankly, Our school is the
best we have ever had, but prom
inent business man demands a
change in the superintendency and
we can t afford to oppose his wish
es. 1t is not worth our while to do
so. We can get someone else to
superintend. Then too, our COM
munities are far from homogeneous.
Frequently the population is sharp
ly divided by national or denomina-
tional lines. He who pleases one
party thereby offends the other.
The displeased party is proverbial-
ly more active at school elections
than the contented party, and the
superintendent term is at an end.
The time has come when the super
intendents should be elected for a
longer period. A reelection should
be for a period Of not less than
three or five years. After proper
probation appointments of superin-
tendent and teachers should be
made subject to dismissal only for
cause and by majority vote of the
board. Special legislative author
ity should be requested authorizing
such contracts. +"
