THE Breckenridge Bulletin is be-
moaning the fact that Milton Smith.
chairman of the State Democratic
committee, feels that he has labored
for his party in that capacity long
enough. and that it is highly proba-
BILE that a new chairman will be
elected at the next convention.
Just why the Bulletin man is shed-
ding tears over Smith 5 prospective
let-out cannot be accounted for un-
less he is desirous of seeing the
Republican party remaining in
power. A large number Of honest
Democrats are of the same opinion
as Milton Smith. 1t was Milton
Smiths poor judgment and mis-
management that defeated the
Democratic party last fall. Yes,
Milton Smith has the right kind of
a feeling. if what the Bulletin says
is true, but its dollars to doughnuts
that he holds on to the job as long
as he can.

Do we make much of Christ in our
lives? Is he really much to us in CON
scious personal experience? Do we not
go on making plans and carrying them
out without once consulting him? We
talk to him about our future interests,
but do we speak to him of our daily
work, our trials, our perplcxltics, our
weekday, work-day life? We are to
shut Christ out of no part Of our life.
We must have something besides hui
man nature, even at its best, if we
would be ready for all that lies before
us. We must get our little lives so at
tached to Gods life that we can draw
from his fulness in every time of need.

The world is as we find it,
Whether for good or i'll;
The path is ofttimes stony.
Leads ofttimes up the hill;
But when we reach the summit,
And find there peace and rest,
We, then, forget the journey,
And feel God knoweth best.
The world is as we take 1t,
Whether for ill or good;
The path lies through the branibles
And often through the wood;
But If we look beyond it,
Where shines the light of day,
Well bravely journey onward;
God knoweth best,n we say.
The world is as we make it;
We reap both good and i'll;
The seed we SOW in passing,

HOME.

During the bright sunny summer
days with their cool, pleasant short
evenings we care very litlle for a
home for it is just as pleasant out
doors as in the house, but when
the time between daylight and
dark begins to grow shorter and
the evenings longer and cooler
then is when we enjoy a nice
pleasant room and q warm fire.
No one enjoys pleasant surround
ings SO much as boy and far too
often he does not find them in his
own home. As rule most of the
pleasant places in the home. are re-
served for the girls. They have
the incest room because they can
keep it clean and know how to
ornament and arrange it to make it
pleasant. Most any old room is
good enough for the boys; the attic
will do if there is no other room
convenient. 1t makes little differ
ence how hot it is in the summer
or how cold in the winter, the
boys are out doors most of the time
anyway and are used 10 the cold or
heat as the case may be. This is
a mistake made in far too many
homes. The very fact that the
boys are exposed to all conditions
and kinds of weather when at their
work should prompt their parents
to provide comfortable room for
them when their work is done.
Boys always like to sleep in the
morning and on the farm, where
they have to get up early, parents
often have the mistaken idea that
if THE boy goes to bed early il will
be easier for him to get up early,
and as soon as supper is over the
boys are instructed to go to bed.
If there is any one thing that boy
hates more than getting up early
In the morning it is to have to go to
bed early in the evening. 1t is this
kind of treatment that drives the
boy from home in the evenings as
soon as he gets in his "teens. T"
There is nothing at home that
interests or attracts him and if he
has any ambition at all he will en-
deavor to find a pleasant place to
spend his evenings. and far too
often that place is the saloon.
This is the time of year when the
evenings are long and you have the
chance now to impress upon the
minds of your boys the fact that
their hcme is the pleasantest place
on earth, and if this impression is
once made they carry it through
life.
Have a cozy, pleasant room for
the boys in which they can spend
their evenings. Insist upon them
spending part of their time study
ing but don't compel them to study
all the time. Have plenty of books
and above all have some boys
papers that contain short stories..
The boy who doesn't love to read
a good short. story, such as appear
in the Youths Companion, Young
Peoples Weekly, Success, etc., is
mighty scarce. Besides these short
stories there is lot Of very EN-
couraging and useful information
in all Of these papers, and the boys
will become interested in all of it.
Don't let the boys run things
but treat them right and you will
find that they are not such bad
fellows after all.
