Read This 10 Your Boy

Judge Wotford, of Kansas City, in
Il recent address to boys, gave advice
which, if needed, would soon revolu.
tionize the country. 1t should be
read to every boy in the United States.
Il have been on the bench fourteen
years and during that time thousands
of boys have been brought before me,
but not one of them WAS constant
attendant at church or Sunday School
or obedient to his father or mother.
81 have inquired OF many boys what
caused them to get into trouble and
have found that in many instances,
staying away from home and school,
paying pool, hanging around saloons
and cigarette smoking are responsible.
"Start right, boys. To be any body,
to accomplish anything for yourself
or the community you cannot be idle.
Don't drlnk-liquor destroys the mind
and body. Don't swear-gentlemen
do not. 1t is low and vulgar. Don't
read trashy literature. 1t leads to
the devil. Don't hang around the ga
looms. Good men are not made that
way. Whenever you see man lying
around saloon the devil il after him
and will get him sooner or later. Ben.
jamin Franklin would never have ac-
complished anything if he had been
guilty OF these practices. Be honest.
above all things. Poor boys make
the best future citizens.
ITO make a good man you must be
a good boy. So start right. The
graveysrds are filed with those who
started wrong. The world is growing
better. The teachings OF Christ are
beginning to be felt. Let me impress
upon you the only road to success is
by living right life. Be honest, in
dustrious, frugal. 1t is not necessary
to be sanctimonious-to wear long
face. Keep laughing. Have a good
time as you go through life, but let it
be the right sort Of a good time. If
we were all angels the world would
not be fit to live in.

A Thanksgiving Thought.

There is something lacking in the
sincerity of the man who goes into the
temple on Thanksgiving day to ac-
knowledge the good gifts Of Provi-
dence to him if he has done nothing
through the year or on this day to up
lift his fellows, to bring sunshine into
sunless hearts and to distribute in
some measure the benefact;ons which
we all hold in trust for the benefit Of
the helpless sons and daughters of
men.

Why We Are Thankful.

For what are we thankful For this:
For the breath and the sunlight of life;
For the love Of the child, and the kiss
On the lips Of the mother and wife.
For roses entwining.
For bird and for bloom:
And hopes that are shining
Like stars in the gloom.
For what are We thankful! For this:
The strength and the patience of toll;
For even the joys that We miss
The hope of the seed in the soil.
For souls that are whittier
From day unto day:
And lives that are brighter
From going Gods way.
For what are We thankful? For all
The sunlight-the shadow-the song;
The blossoms may wither and fall.
But the world moves in music along!
For simple, sweet living.
pTis love that doth teach it,
A heaven forgiving,
And faith that can reach it!

for Barton, and their thanksgiving
invitations were rare indeed. AL
dsy Rod wondered about Joyce, and
wished he dared ask him question
only he was afraid that if the old
man knew who was going the invita-
ton would be refused. for Rod and
the old shoemaker had not always
been upon good terms.
Old Joyce's behavior at Miss Bas-
CONS Thanksgiving dinner was some
thing that Rod Herrick never forgot (;
his polite speeches, his thoughtful
ness of everybody but himself, his
eagerness to contribute all that he
possibly could to the pleasure and
success of the occasion made him the
guest of honor. Rod had never sup
posed before that guests had any re-
sponsibilities; he had supposed that
those belonged entirely to the hostess.
he privately resolved half dozen
times during the meal that next to
becoming Barton's partner, he would
study harder to learn how to behave
when he was in company.
Such stories as the old man told
OF lands and castles and feasts beyond
the sea Joyce had travelled far,
and apparently had forgotten moth
ing that had ever happened to him.
AS he told his wonderful stories, he
would bow to Miss Bascom, or Mrs.
Herrick, and once or twice he had
included Rod in one of his won
derful courtesies, in such a fashion
that Rod lost his self-posession and
felt polite and distinguished for fully
FIVE minutes afterward. It was a sem
sation that made him more manly
boy for months, and one that he new
er really ceased to feel.
After dinner Joyce sat down be-
fore the old piano and played such
music as not even Miss Bascom had
ever heard, and she was the organist
of the church and the best musician
in Staunton. And somehow, from
the music and the stories and the
manners, they all gradually under
stood that "Old Joyce" had history
behind him, and hadn't always mend
ed other peoples old shoes He had
suffered because of the village ostrs-
cism anybody could see that. Rod
told himself that the old fellow had
dropped ten or dozen years there
at Miss Lizzie Bascom's old piano.
The party was over at last, but its
influence was not that lived and
grew until it even broke down the
wall between the old shoemaker and
the village hearts. He mended shoes
as of old, because be needed to, but
he no longer kept house in his shop.
He went to board at the Herricks
he went to church, too, and the very
first time he played the offertory on
the little organ, instead of Miss Bss-
com, who sat with her face turned
toward the people SO that she could
enjoy their surprise. Nobody knew
what he played perhaps it was the
story of his life, for it had tears and
storms in it, and toward the last was
something full of silver notes notes
of joy, peace, love, human sympathy,
notes that were almost an echo from
the harps by the sea of glass. Mrs.
HerlicI said afterward that the organ
said 81 was stranger and ys took
me in" Miss Bascom said it said
"Out of great tribulation :" but Rod
said to Barton when he told him all
about it next day: "The whole piece
was just old Joyce's, Thanksgiving"
and perhaps it was
