fOR THE BOYS.

You who are men IN years and
you, just entering manhood, stop
and consider life as it is. Re
member, "action is the essence of
c character" good or bad. This
character building is daily thing,
so consider your ways and weigh
your actions, and build wisely.
What are your aims? Are you
striving to develop yourselves,
mentally and morally, so as to have
an influence in your community
Our boys will be the future men
of our country, our law makers,
and they should be men who hon
or the law; they should be men OF
principle, who cannot be corrupted
by bribcs; who have the moral
courage to do their duty. When
a community lacks such men, evil
and corruption predominant. How
much the well-being Of a com
munity depends upon the honest,
upright men in it.
Many temptations bcset the
young and they come in contact
with evil influence in every vo-
cation in life. Yet there is within
yourselves, boys, a counteracting
force (if used) that will enable you
to withstand temptations, and to
overcome the evil Influences with
which you will surely come in con-
tact. Bring your reasoning pow
ers to bear. Argue with your
selves the certain moral degrada-
tion If you continne in a wrong
course. Bring your will power to
bear and keep under the low ap-
petites and the little, mean things
that corrupt any who give way to
them. Have a high standard,
choose right, open path in life.
Nothing to hide, nothing to be
ashamed of.
Listen to the counsel OF your
parents. Seek the home nest and

Neat Comparlson.

On each of the 81 times that he has
crossed the Atlantic, Lord Dunmore
has been the center Of group OF

and by the very wide angle they
formed at the heels

Fungus Kills Bark Beetle.

The bark beetle which for several
years has been working havoc in the
valuable pine timber OF the Black
hills, South Dakota. has apparently
been given check BY a fungus which
finds in the dying trees q congenial

time kills the beetles In the bark.
There is hope, therefore. that the

has passed.

IN THE HonE NEST
Cheerful Evening Reveries for Tired
MOthers

There is no doubt but that a
large percent of the degradation,
disgrace, ruin and crime among
the young, springs from the habit
of night prowling, corner loahng
and kindred acts by both sexes in
city, town and hnmlet all over this
broad country. Any person who
keeps his or her eyes open knows
this, Hundreds OF boys and girls
are out at night, and we all know
that many influences for evil and
none for good surround them con
tinualIy. A curfcw restriction
may be dcridcd as old fashioned
and puritanical, but the fact re-
mains that there is vastly less
night proving IN towns that have
a curlew ordinance and enforce it..
The faiIcst and sweetest JOY IS
that brought to a man by the low
ing hand of a wife. The sweetest
thought is Of that life journey,
when, hand in hand, she, the wife,
becomes the guiding star as he
scales the sunlit mountain OF sue
cess, or as, with him, she pene-
tratcs the shadow. laden and dis.
NAL valley of failure, despair and
grief. The ecstasy OF Joy or the
pain Of grief cannot change the
divinity Of a wife's love. The
blackest cloud that can darken the
horizon of man is the one which,
encircling the brow with death,
takes from a husbands embrace
his life companion. Its then that
all cares, sorrows and pains oflife
seem blended into one; it is then
that an unfathomable ocean seems
to engulf him with its angry bill
lows. If all husbands would pom
der over these thoughts at the be-
ginning of the new year and treat
the wife as if it was to he their last
year together upon earth, the di-
vorce courts would be advertising

OF 1909.

OUR PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

OUR PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
II think people rather often
completely misapprehend what are
really the important questions.
The question of the tariff, the cur
rency, or even the regulation of
railroad rates are all subordinate
to the great moral movements
which mean the preservation of
the individual in his or her rela-
ton to the home, because if the
homes are ali straight, the state
will take care of itself"
The above are the words of
President Roosevelt in an address
to a "White House" delegation.
1t should have been in his annual
message to congress. These few
words are the "milk in the cocoa
NUT and if needed by us all there
would be no necessity in the fu-
ture of a message to congress
eight columns in length in order
to call the attention of that body
to the many evils existing.
The above words of our prcsi-
den, should be printed in letters of
gold so plainly that che who runs
may read" and then framed and
hung in every home in this broad
land. There are no politics in
these words. They are cold facts,
known to us all.
When the homes are properly
regulated the tariff, the railroads
and the currency will be easily
to regulate.
When the press and our public
orators unite in giving their best
thoughts and attentions to the
homes, all our great national
problems will soon solve them
selves.
When the homes are right the
entire country will be right The
questions that effect the morals
and purity of our homes are the
real and vital questions.
Our political speakers appeal
only to partisan feelings and your
pocketbook You never hear
them using their eloquencc in an
honest endeavor to better our
homes which are the foundation
stones upon which rest all our
laws and institutions, both state
and national
The voters who 90 out from
moral, pure homes, will place
moral and pure men in office, who
will give us honest and pure rail
road and tariff regulations. All
we need is more moral and pure
homes so as to supply us with a
majority Of the voters.
Our president takes this view of
1t, and 1t is that which has brought
him so close to the honest think
ing people OF all parties. Let US
repeat his words: "If the homes
are all straight, the state will take
care Of itself" 1t is this thought
that inspires us to give so much
space to this particular depart
ment OF our paper.
Speak kindly, move quietly, do
duty cheeriully, look pleasantly,

derly, love constantly in
