HERE AND THERE

All who feel free To hike when the
weather gets thick, would do we'll to
get in line with the policy of the
house.
Sickness is sent from God, but
health is often device of the Evil
One to lure US on TO sin; SO some folks
believe.
The joy in reading consists in self
discovery.
Everything done on hate has to be
done over again.
The extreme of the law is the ex-
treme of injustice.
All beauty is not symbol of spirit,
The truth is that in human service
there is no low or high degree: the
woman who scrubs is as worthy Of
respect as the man who breaches.
| believe in the now and here, | be-
lieve in you. and | believe in power
that is in ourselves that makes for
righteousness.
All lovers of books have chums, and
the pleasure of reading is to pass this
joy along to another.
In Nature here are no such things
as reward and punishment. We SOW,
and we reap what We have sown.
The pathway to success lies in Serv-
ing The public, not in affronting it..
Let US be radiant.

SLEIGHING TINE
is NOW HERE
Snow Mantle Covers the Earth
and Winter Conditions Have
COT in
set in.

The merry jingle of musical sleigh
bells is now heard everywhere. Win
ter has set in at last, with all its
usual cbaracteriStics-ice frost and
snow
With the snow blanket now
on earth and the prospect of
more by-and-by, if not 10 the
immediate future, we feel perfect
ly justified in saying that winter
conditions have fairlv set in, and will
be in order for at least three months
to come
Numerous plans for sleighing parties
are already on foot, ana will be much
enjoyed by all, as tbe roads will soon
be in excellent condition for sleighing
purposes.
The business life of Grand Rapids,
and the country surrounding it de-
pends in measure upon sleighing in
the winter time, and now that it has
come, farmers will be buSily en-
ployed in hauling wood and farm
products to market. 1t Is not only
the farmer and the logger who well
comes the snow and good Sleighing
but almost every person living in the
city and vicinity will be benefited
in some way. Many unemployed men
will have an opportunity to go 10 work
shOveing snow. Thursday the city
had large force engaged in clearing
the walks where property owners
neglected to do SO.
Merchants and business men how
ever will reap the greatest benefit,
as now that sleighing has come the
stores will be thronged with Christ
mas shoppers, many of whom Will be
from the country. Ia fact it is i'm
possible TO estimate in dollars ana
cents what the recent fall Of snow
means TO Grand Rapids and Wiscon-
sin in general.

THE TRAMP NUISANCE.
HOW TO ABATE 1T

Most cities of Wisconsin during
this season of the year are obliged to
contend, more or less with the genus
hobo, who is seeking snug winter
quarters. He is civilizations incubus
that has to be reckoned with, regard
less of whether times are good, bad
or Indifferent. HIS sole aim in life is
to live upon the bounty and charity
of others and shun labor of any kind
as he would pestilence. The great
est favor a municipality can do him
from his point of view, at this season
of the year, is to run him in" and
give him shelter for the night. so
that he can go forth the next morning
to ply his ayocatiOn of begging for
something to eat.
No greater charity could possibly be
bestowed upon this shiftlesS class
than for the city to require every
such character to devote DAVIS
work toward cleaning up our streets
and sidewalks.
When confronted by physical exer-
else the hobo will be disposed to 90
by on the other side, and cut
out such cities as place of rendez-
vOuS when they learn that the old
Scriptural quotation Of earning the
the bread by the sweat of the brow
is 10 be enforced against his kind.
