his true recipe for the true phil
osophy of life.
1t is impossible to give all the
good things he said, but here are
a few that may help you through
life:
No man is to be praised for
wrong doing.
Too much handshaking is like
shaking a snakes tail, get
through with it as soon as pos
sible.
Happiness is not confined to
the house with the brown stone
front.
The churches were never so
close to each other and never
had so much religion in them as
they have today.
The world is dying by inches
for just a word of sympathy.
Give a helping hand and a
word of sympathy to the man
who is down.
Too many men have t e r
wishbones where t h e j r b a c k
bones ought to be.
Learn to say the right thing
and do the right thing at the
right time.
Speak we'll of the other man
and it will make you a better
man.
Look for the good in men and
you will be sure to find it, and
when you find it you will surely
appreciate it yourself.
GOV. BOB TAYLOR
Gov. Bob Taylor was the

He is an artist in every sense of

He spoke of "Castles in the air.

Mr.. Taylor is a Southerner by
birth and in speaking of his old
home he told many stories to
show that it was also a happy
place. He is able to illustrate
every point with a song, sing

with the creation of the world,
wondering if woman had been

Does not every politician and

ii. Gold is gold in all life.
In the days of Babylon was
it not one Of the Wealthiest

but wealth could not keep Bah
ylon from falling. Rome was
great but she too came to de
struction, United States is
great, we have wealth, COM
merce and people, and our main
point Of safety so we argue,
lies i'll so many people.
a very prominent man one
day decided it was time for him
to die so he gathered together
a piece of rope, some coal oil,
matches, revolver and Il boat.
Taking these articles he rowed
himself down stream, coming to
where Il limb hung over the
| water. He tied one end of the
rope around the limb and the
other around his throat, cover
ed himself with coal oil and
putting the arsenic in his mouth
set fire TO himself, placed the
revolver to his head pulling
the trigger showing the boat at
the same time. Consequently
he cut the rope in shooting, by
falling into the water the fire
was put out and he coughed up
the arsenic. He then decided his
time had not yet come and the
next day he declared himself a
candidate for congress. Again
along the stream of life we find
young men and women travel
ing, all is not smooth sailing,
there are the ups and downs,
but always the bright hope to
help and encourage them on.
| am invited to visit a friend
who has a little man of two or
three, he is the pride of their
home. Company is coming and
YOU want him to do his best be-
fore them, you soon miss him.
On finding him he is covered
with jam and dirt-again he is
cleaned up, he is able to slip
away and get the jam again.
Then a crash is heard in the
library and you find the young
man covered with ink to hide
the stains of jam. Then is Par
adise lost.
Several years later the young
man is in pants. My, you are
proud of him. He is allowed to
do as he wishes and no one cor
reefs him. He is the democrat
of the play ground, the republi-
can of the school hOnSe full

the breakfast, dinner and sup

minister was invited to supper.
He was a dyspeptic and so was
not able to partake of the meat,
vegetables and other things.
The young man could contain
himself no longer SO he said,
"Say, Ma give him a raw egg
maybe he could suck that.

you too should have an interest
in them. When they are young
their young lives are open to
your moulding. If you do not
look after them the world will
claim them and if they do not
the angels will.

you then have hope, courage
ambition and are able to make
large plans for the future. In
