Washington, D. c. President
Roosevelt delivered an address at the
annual presentation exercises of the
Friends Select School in this city
where Archie Roosevelt is a student
His subject was '"The American Boy."
The President said:
: I want to see the boy enjoy him
self. The boy at play sometimes ex-
nlblts these qualities which determine
the kind Of man he will make. If he
olsIlkes his work, if he shirks his stu
dies, he will develop into a great fail
ure In everything else. If he hasn't
fenaracter to study, he won't have
character to play. Play hard when
you play. and work hard when Won
WORK. Right here there is as great a
lesson for the grown-ups as for the
younger ones. ~

whose selfish wishes were ALWAYS

A Woman on Women.

For ~self1shness and reconsideration,
commend me to a woman travelling,
says the Saturday Evening Post. She
will deliberately occupy two seats in
a street car; e other women stand,
laden with bundles, without offering to
move up, and otherwise try to prove
to everybody with eyes in their
heads that they, these women, have
no manners at all.
Yet, If you called at the houses OF
such women. I have no doubt in the
world that you would be courteously
received; their best would be at your
disposal, and you would otherwise dis
cover that they had some claim to the
title of ladies-but never from their
manners in public.
And, far from displaying good man
ners themselves, many women are in
capable of approaching good manners
in others. If a well-bred woman does
move up to make room for a standing
woman, how often is the first woman
thanked? Sometimes not ever a bow
Or a glance is given!
Ask men how often they are thanked
(once in 20 times) for giving theil
seats in a car to women.

Tools Cheap at Junk Shops

In every large city Will be found
places where secondhand or junk
tools are sold. Tools of all descrip-
lions, adapted to every branch of
mechanics, can be bought at prices
ranging from one cent up.
A good-sized paint brush brings two
cents, a carpenters hammer five
cents, a pick or shovel rs cents, a rip
saw ten cents, and so on. According
to Popular Mechanics, the average
price is less than one-tenth what the
new article would cost at a hardware
store, and the tool is often just as USE
full al a new one.
Some of the stuff in the motley col.
lection comes from unredeemed
pawns, some from junk dealers and
q good deal from parties Of whom no
questions are asked.
frequently quite valuable tools and
instruments can be had for a mere
song, as most customers want the
FOOLS of ordinary use requiring less
skill to handle.

"cLieutenant colonel is probably
the worst verbal puzzle that c%onfronts

nunciation is a heritage from the six:

wherein the change of Il to r. was
linguistically natural, though popular
etymology wrongly connected the
word with corona a crown. It is
really from the Italian colonial a

Senate Bill No. 129 has passed the
Legislature carrying with it an annual
appropriation OF $45 1000. This will
give high schools of the first class
$1,000 annually for high school aid.
However the bill was amended to in
clude schools of the third class, giving
them $500 annually. This provision
seems wise and just as it will very
materially assist the small struggling
high schools and give them an incen-
tive to rise to second and even first
class high schools.
