SOUND ADVICE.

Some sage advice was rendered TO the
members of the Young Mems Guild the
other evening by Mr.. j. B. LANG. 1t is,
as the speaker pointed out, upon the rising
generation the future Of the colony depends,
and if that future is to be as successful as 1t
ought to be it is necessary that the young
men of to- day should take q keen interest III
all that is going on around them. For this
purpose guilds and improvement societies
can be of considerable value, and 1T IS graft
fving TO note that in almost every village
there is some institution of the KIND where
the Young meet regularly. If. however, they
are to serve a useful purpose discretion must
be exercised in the subjects selected for
discussion. In this respect there is wide
room for improvement. Not lnfrequently
subjects are gravely debated Of no earthly
interest to anybody, and time spent thus IS
time utterly wasted. There are subjects
worth while troubling with. Such a one
was the debate which the members OF the
Georgetown Young Mems Improvement
Society held the other evening as 10 the
respective value Of agriculture and trade.
Both these are matters of importance. In
the past, we are afraid, there has been q too
gleat tendency to neglect agriculture ter
pursuits considered 'more g%enteel. 1t was
significant, therefore, to find that on THIS
occasion agriculture won the Gay. But VIII
the winners put their convictions to the
test The cultivation of the soil is some
thing of which no man, young or old, need
be ashamed, and the man who Is successful
has the satisfaction of knowing he IS DONG
something from which his country viii derive
a real benefit. IF British Guiana is to pros
per to the extent she ought, far more atten-
ton must be paid to agriculture by the
"small man. than has been the case III the
past. In the meantime, be the caiilng what
it may, the words of Mr.. Laing are equally
applicable. Success in whatever walk OF
life one selects cannot be won without steady,
hard work and close attention to duty, ana
unless young men are prepared to give this
they will find they get badly left behind IN
the competition for the premier places. 10
succeed here, as elsewhere, ono must not
stand on the order of doing q thing, bat DO
it. The man who does is a hundred per cent
better than the man who merely talks. The
takers either lament the failures OF the
Government or some other body in the past,
or paint in glowing colours the prospects Of
