 Among the new books re- ceived for the pubic school libra ry are thirty two volumes of his- tory. By studying the lives of great men our boys and girls may be inspired to bo great things and build character that will stand the tests of time and eternity. Longfellow says:
 Lives of great men all remind us,
 We can make our lives sublime;
 And departing, leave behind us
 Footprints on the sands of time.
 Apropos a certain departure from Prescott recently the fol- lowing is appropriate: The end was as peaceful as the close of a beautiful summer day when daylight fades into night with increasing lovliness. And thus closed the early business career in Prescott of one who, being dead, didn't know it.
