MaxIrs to Guide q Youas Man.

Some so or go years ago the late J. Sell
va Waite, son OF the late John Waite, an
early resident Of Randolph, wrote out in
q clear copper-plate hand the following
maxims that be found in q copy Of the
Gazette and Courier and evidently treas
ured; for they have been preserved even
to this day, in which their wisdom is still
applicable to the conduct Of liie:-
Keep good company or none.
Never be idle. II your hands cannot
be usefully employed, attend to the culti-
walton Of your mind.
Always speak the truth and make few
promises Live up to all your engage
ments.
Have no very intimate friends. Keer
your own secrets II you have any.
When you speak to a person, look him
in the face.
Good company and good conversation
are the very sinews OF virtue. Good char.
acter il above all things else.
Never listen to loose and infldel CONVEX
sation. You had better be poisoned II
your blood than in your principles.
Your character cannot be essentially
injured except by your own acts. II any
one speaks evil Of you, let your life be q
virtuous that none VIII believe him
Always speak and act as in the pres
ence of God. Drink no kind OF intoxi
eating liquor. Ever live, misfortune ex
cepted, within your income.
When you retire to bed think oveI
what you have been doing during thu
day.
Make no haste to be rich II you would
prosper. Small and steady gains Civ
competency with tranquility Of mind.
Never play any games Of chance. Ear
your money before you spend it. Avoid
temptation through fear that you maj
not Withstand it. Never run into deb
unless you see q way to get out again.
Never borrow II you can possibly avois
il. Never speak evil Of anyone.
Do not marry until you are able to sup
port wife. Be just before You are gen
erous.
Keep yourself innocent IL you would b
happy. Save when you are young Il
spend when you are old.
Never think that what you do for re
ligion is time or money misspent. Res,
some portion OF the Bible every day. OF
ten think Of death and your accountable
ty to God.
Read over the above maxims at leas
once a week-saturday night.

Willard Gay Peaches seth Milestone.
Willard Gay, who was born in Stock
bridge, Oct. 70, 1922, had his seth birth
day anniversary celebrated Sunday. the
25th inst, by dinner, given also partly
in honor Of Rev. Fraser Metzger, whose
seth birthday anniversary fell on the
same date.
An elegant banquet was served in
courses Of grape fruit; tomato soup and
saltines; roast duck, apple sauce, plum
Jelly, marmalade, onions, squash, sweet
and white potatoes; chicken salad. cheese
waters, olives; ice cream with cherry
saucs and the birthday cakes presented
by friends; coffee, cheese, nuts, candy
and fruit. To this good cheer there sat
down ct 8 o'clock, Mr. Gay, DR.. and Mrs.
E. o. Blanchard and daughter, Helen;
Rev. and Mrs. Fraser Metzger and son,
Albert, and Miss Catherine Metzger; Col
A. B. Chandler, Mr.. and Mrs. A. E. Bass,
Mrs. Belle d. Dubois and Miss Mary 8.
Dubois. The flowers for the banquet
were chrysanthemums and dark red car
nations.
Mr.. Gay received many beautiful gifts
and entertained the circle Of friends By
interesting "reminiscences Of his earlier
days. The burden Of SO years rests light
~ on his shoulders and, while his physi-
cal vigor is remarkable. age has seemed
only to whet to finer sharpness the keen
ness Of those mental faculties that have
been 90 marked in his long aud successful
career.
he came to Randolph In 1851 to engage
in the dry goods business with Harvey
Spalding, now of Washington, ID. Q.
Later Mr.. Gay bought out the hardware
business of his brother-in-law. the late R.
7. Dubois, and in 1871 the same was sold
to Jasper H. LAmson. and is still the
business Of Mr.. Lamson and his sons.
Mr.. Gay and Mr.. Dubois formed the
Arm Of Dubois q Gay that engaged In
private banking and out OF it grew the
Randolph National bank, OF which Mr..
Gay has been a director since its organi-
ration in 1875. The firm was interested
in real estate, too, and erected several
dwelling houses and blocks in this viii
lage, beside exploiting q portion Of the
playground that has become one of the
pleasantest residential parts OF the town.
A Democrat in politics, Mr.. Gay served
his party as a member Of its state COM
mittee for years and in 1882 was its nom
inee for the Office OF state treasurer. He
has been q prominent Odd Fellow for
more than 90 years and, with the excep-
tion OF 8. n. Fisk, is the Oldest member
Of Phoenix lodge, F. and A. NJ

MIss Tewkshury on LiIstory.


The paper read before the recent State
1eachers' convention in Rutland by
Miss Mary Carr Tewksbury on aAims and
Methods in Teaching Medieval and
Modern History" was highly commend
ed and fully reported in the Rutland Her
aid. Some of the "aims'' were thus con-
vincingiy presented
"The chief interest in the subject
Of history lies, truly, in the fact
that ii ID not yet finished. This
wonderful tale OF me rise and fall
OF nations, these varied stories Of
creeds, politics and statesmen are increas-
ing in number, and from the past, in q
way. we illustrate the present and future.
II is q great picture Of the changing hu-
man races, ceaseless conflict; it Is q record
of heroism, of turmoil and perplexity; q
subject the contemplation OF which can
never weary IL once the pupils learn to
love IL. May he not realize that the story
rapidly developing is throwing light
upon history already developed And
understanding this, win 1t not arouse in
him q right kind of curiosity, = curiosity
to learn Of those earlier timesf
"Among the many other aims in the
teaching Of history, one stands out above
the other; namely, not only to make the
subject interesting and attractive, but to
teach the. pupils that the deeds and
thoughts OF the great men OF history are
for the enrichment Of their own lives.
Another aim Is to anticipate the lessons
of time. As a great educator has said;
we shall, no doubt, be wise after the
event; we study history that we may be
wise before the event.
"Another of the aims in teaching this
subject Is to give the pupil better under
standing of the world. 1t must be some
thing more than q chronological list Of
deeds, with names and dates. As soon
as possible, the interest should be stimu-
lated BY appealing to the imagination
with stories OF war and adventure, and
tales OF the men who have achieved
greatness. They will soon have q desire
to find out why events have taken place
and SO will come discussion Of cause
and effect. The class may be made to see
how men have set aside private ambitions
to serve common cause and thus patri-
otism is taught. It Is Of little use to re.
/ quire q large number of dates to be COM
mitted to memory, but let each one Of the
important dates be presented rs back

NEW YORK. March 4.-Nathan vidaver,
a special deputy state attorney general,
was arrested today by detectives from Dis
trict Attorney JeroTne's office, charged
with accepting $500 in marked bills from
William Montgomery, former president of
the Hamilton bank.
Vidaver had a prominent part in the re-
cent banking Investigation in this city and
the Hamilton bank was one of the institu-
tions which was given attention at that
time. He recently was a candidate to the
court of general sessions bench.
Vidaver was arraigned and held in s5oe
bail. The charge in substance is that he
accepted $500 from Montgomery to use his
influence with the newspapers to keep from
the public the news that indictments pend
ing against Montgomery are to be dis
missed and that Montgomery is about to
open another bank. Vidaver denounced his
arrest as an outrage. He said he ac-
cepted the $500 from Montgomery as a re-
tainer.

LOS ANGELES. March 4-By one of

CLOSING OF MINES lMPENDS
Iowa Men Have No Agreement with
Coal OperRtOrs-New Contract
Not Easily Made.

DIES MONIES, March A complete
shutdown OF the coal mines in Iowa, worked
by 5000 miners is threatened.
The agreement existing between the mine
operators and the miners expires March 81
and because of the failure Of miners and
operators in eastern states to reach an
agreement last week it is probable the Iowa
and Illinois operators who have heretofore
followed the example Of the eastern states,
will not be able to make a new agreement
before March 81. This would mean a dis
continuation OF work in every coal mine
in Iowa and 1900 men would be thrown
into idleness.
The probability of the shut down of the
Iowa mines was discussed last night by
John p. Reese, secretary and commissioner
of the Iowa Coal Operators association.
Mr.. Reese expressed the belief that the
mines would undoubtedly be shut down
April 1. He declared that he could see
nothing which could prevent it in the face
of the failure of the eastern miners and
operators to agree.
