There is a golden mean, widely sep
arated from either of the extremes to
which I have been abiding, which all
men, and especially all farmers, would
do well to seek. It avoids undue boast
fulness and bumptiousness, nor does it
choose the black shadow of perpetual
gloom. 1t recognizes the hard and the
cruel in life as well as life's work; and
therefore it speaks mildly and without
arrogance. At the same time. It sees
the glory and the grandeur which. also
are a part of our heritage; and there
fore it speaks firmly and with conf
dence; INCREASINGLY, but also unmur-
muringly.

I've seen-you've all seen farmers
so bumptiously arrogant in their self
esteem and their esteem of the profess
sion which they follow that one invol-
unfairly lodges at their approach.
They are so swelled up with impor-
lance that you feel crowded when they
jump over into the same ten acre lot
with you. Their self conceit is so sky
scraping that you wonder it doesn't in
terfere with the orbit Of the moon.
They don't walk sedately along the
common highways; they fairly bounce
over the surface. They strut they
swagger; they are forever throwing
their caps into the air. They seem to
radiate self abstraction; they actually
snort with Qualification. They are
the sort who are forever Grating about
the lofty honor Of agriculture and
about the farmers dignity, and about
his absolute superiority to the rest of
the world. They fill the air with tail
talk about what they have done with
their fields and their cattle and their
horses. To listen to them one would
think that farming was the top notch
Of earthly eminence, and that none but
farmers had any real right 10 the first
table.
They are the snorters.

CWritten Specially for The Bulletin.)
It's great fun to classify people.
There are the tall men and the short
men; the thin and the fat; the dark
and the light, etc. Then we can d.
vide them by races; the white and the
black and the yellow, and so on. Like
wise they fall into classes Temporal
mentally. There are sanguine men and
melancholics; optimists and pessi-
mists; lazy men and two-legged dyna-
mos of electric energy. Mentally,
morally and spiritually, similar lines
of division run through the race, and
it is an occasional diversion with me,
thinking over the list of my acquaint-
ances, to classify them in my own
mind. This one goes into the class of
prigs; that one into the class of her.
editarily good; this other into the class
of idealists: a fourth into the class of
mole-like materialists; a fifth is one of
the natural criminals converted by
grace, and a sixth goes, PUNK, into the
great order of unreformed liars.
One can 90 on thus making classes
and filing their ranks till his supply
of known material gives out. Among
other claSsifications with which / thus
amuse myself is the one which divides
my fellow farmers into the Snorters"

young horse, just out of pasture, with

very very good. and he just snorts
with glee at the bracing air and the
level road and the miles his fleet feet
are to swallow and the glow that is to
warm him, and the good natured word
and the kindly pat from the master
that are to mark his triumphant re-
turn home. That's a type of the
shorter class. Also, you've known the
old plug that can't hold his head up
unless he's checked so tight as to seem
cruel; that fairly slumps into nerve
lessness when you hitch him UP just
for miles drive to the postoffice; that
actually drools with sorrow as you
force the bit into his unwilling mouth,
and that starts out of the gate with
ears back and eyes dropping and lips

feel ashamed to touch him up" and

capable Of if he wasn't so blamed dis

lers. There are a lot of things where

THOUSANDS OF LIGHTS TO BE
