A RRAuE GTRT,

Nellie Smith, 7-year-old New Jersey girl owes
uer life to the courage and se1f-forgetfulness of
school friend Annie Siverman, five years her
senior. But even Armies heroism might have
proved unavailing if she had not added to it a
presence of mind and self-possession which would
have done credit to a many times her age.
Nellie on her way home from school, and,
as she crossed the railway tracks, her foot became
wedged between two planks. She tried to wrench
herself free, but with each pull her foot seemed to
become more firmly fixed The little girls heart
began to beat fast, and when shrill whistle fell
upon her ears, her vague alarm became definite
terror. The fast express was bearing down upon
her, and she realized that death was at hand unless
help came quickly.
Annie Silverman, who was also returning from
school, heard Nellies>cres, and ran to the rescue.
The train so near that she might have easily
been excused for becoming panic-stricken In
stead, she dropped her knees beside the child and
exered all her strength to free the little foot While
the whistle of the approaching train shrieked its
warnings and the engineer tried in vain to come
to stop before reaching the girls, Annie set her
teeth and pulled steadily and strongly as if there
had been no occasion for excitement. The locomo-
tive was close upon them when violent wrench
accomplished the desired end and the two girls fell
at the sidS Of the track and lay there while the
tram Numbered by, almost too excited to know
whether they were hurt or not

MANLTNEss OF A Roy.

Several days ago | happened to board car
which was crowded. A little man-perhaps he
was u years old-offered me his seat with charm

popped up when another woman entered, pulled off
his cap, which fringed with rags and with such
jolly, wide smile made room for the newcomer
Five times in as many minutes that smile broke

his clothes were whole or ragged but some one

Dear Nieces and Nephews:
Aunt Busy is beginning to feel little hurt over
the neglect of SO many OF her correspondents this
summer She remembers once that Clayton Herman

There are some dear children in Columbia Falls
who have not written for ages. Aunt Busy can fill

old Auntie! She is actually melting with grief
Such very warm days, too: and the poor old soul is
sitting at her desk with her funny little cork

ARCHBISHOP IRELAND TO BOYS y.

Avoid as YOU advance in years, the special
temptations that come to young men. | am not
going to mention all of them, only one-intemper-
ance. As you go through the world and watch
your fellow-men, you find the majority of failures
IN life due to intemperance. This vice of intem-
perance attacks the weak and the strong, the edu-
Gated and the ignorant. 1t is generous open
hearted men that the most exposed to this terri
bic curse. Determine, then, to avoid that tempta-
ton. | would advise every man to go forth armed;
stop at once. Pledge total abstinence. man is
absolutely secure with it; without it there danger
1t IS all very well for young to say: Cpl
only take glass;" but will he stop at one? Pledge
total abstinence; for there is in it discipline, and
discipline makes character. The underlying prin-
cipe of character is sef-control. If we practice
this self-control on one point we surely shall prac
tice it in everything.

The new Year book of the Catholic University of
America has just come from the press. 1t contains
the changes in entrance requirements and courses
called for by the action of the board trustees in
deciding to admit graduates of high schools to the
university These notifications do not imply that
the university is to lower its standards to abandon
the field of advanced work in which it has hitherto
been engaged. 1t is hoped, on the contrary, that
larger number of men, trained in their preliminary
courses by the university teachers, will become candi-
dates for the higher degrees and devote themselves to
scientific research.
BY placing its extensive resources and equipment
within the reach of candidates of the baccaaureate
degrees, the university expects to retain within
Catholic influences many of our young men who
otherwise would enter non-Catholic institutions
