"Twenty-one."

A bright exchange pens the
following, addressed to a boy. We
hope every Young man reader Of
this paper will scan the article
carefully and give il earnest
thought:
SO you are 81.
And you stand mp elear-eyed,
clear minded, TO look all the world
squarely in the eye, You are a
mani
Did you ever think, son, how
much it cost to make a man out of
yOuf
Some one has figured up the
cost in money OF rearing child.
He saws to bring a young mau to
legal age, care for him and educate
him, costs $4,000. Which is a
lot of money to put into flesh and
blood.
But that isn't all.
You have cost your father many
hard knocks and short dinners and
worry aud gray strsaks in hi s hair.
And your mother alb, boy, you
will never know! You have cost
her days and nights of anxiety and
wrinkles in her dear face and
heart aches and sacrifice.
1t has been expensive to grow
you.
But
Ii YOU were to think you are,
you are worth all the cost and
much, much more.
BE sure of this: While father
doesn't say much bnt Hello, sou, "
way down in his tough stauuch
heart he thinks you are the finest
ever. Aud as for the little mother
she simply cannot keep her love
and pride for you out of her eyes.
You are a man now.
Aud some time you must step
into your fathers shoes. He
would net like for you to call him
old. hut just the same he isn't as
young as he used to be. YOu see,
young man, he has been working
pretty hard for more than twenty
years to help you up!
And already your mother has be.
gun to lean on you.
Doesn't that sober YOU, Twenty
. oneS
Your father has done fairly we'll
but you can do better. You may
not think so, but he does. He has
given YOU n better chance than he
had. In many ways you can begir
where he left of. He expected {
good deal from you aud that is
why he has tried to make mau
| OF you.
, Don't finch, boy.
9 The world will try you out. 1t
e will put Ia the test every fiber in
e you. but YOU are made Of good
stuff. Once the load is fairly
strapped on your shoulders, yor
will cartry it aud scarcely feel 1T
only there be the willing and cheer
n full mind.
All hail, YOU, on the threshold
It's time you were beginning Il

What and Where to Buy.

The easiest way to find the right gift
for the Christmas season is to go to the
f3osworth Store Co.'S store and look
around you. There is no mistaking the
fact that the hundreds, We might say
thousands, of givable things here have
a special air of distinction, an uncom-
monness that is very likable, and when
YOU come to see the little prices, that
makes them even more likable. The
fashion is for sensible gifts, a fashion
that grows with each season, and it finds
admirable opportunity for expression in
the superb stock of furniture and ~house
furnishings displayed. This store fos
everybody is answering gift questions
every minute of the day, and answering
them right. The goods displayed, many
of which are enumerated in The firm.

The following from the Sh-rbrooke
Record Is the article referred to The
Grand Trunk Railway intend making
Sherbrooke a divisional point. 1t is
learned from a reliable source that this
Is the intention of the company. As a
matter OF fact the company are now ne-

land they want in Sherbrooke. bat they

Il is stated, also, that the q. T. Z.
are negotiating with the Street Railway
for the land owned by them where the
car barns stand.
If they can secure this the round
house will i've erected on tins ate.
The officials Of the Company are GO
ing into the matter very thoroughly and
1t would not be surprising il the e.. T.
r. started on their proposed extensions
at an early date.
The reason tor the change is due to
the fact that with the passing Of new
railway laws in the United States,
railway company cannot keep its -m-
ployees on a longer run than loo miles.
The distance from Montreal to Port
land, Me, is about 300 miles, and there
il practically only Que change Of crews
between the former and latter places,
aud that is at Island Pond, Vt.
The intention of the Company is to
make a divisional point at Sherbrooke
and another at Groyetou. \. II.

Gus loss to that town, for the business

6Oth Wedding Anniversary.

Wednesday was the sixtieth annlv-r-
sary OF the wedding day OF Mr. and
Mrs. jeremiah Steady. Not only have
this couple lived To see many auuivrr-
saries, but they have reached this Que iu
a remarkably we'll preserved state OF
health, and with all their faculties amin
paired Smart and active, aud with minds
alert, Que would not think from the ap-
pearance of either that they were much
past the prime of life.
Mr. Steady who will be eighty-four
wears old next June, looks hardly sixty
while Mrs Steady, who is seventy-seven
years old, would readily pass for a
woman OF fifty. But not only are they
young in looks. but their hearts are
youthful, aud they are As much interested
in the topics of the day as people of
fewer years. They were married in
1919 in Hinesburg, where Mrs. Steady,
whose name was Hannah Corriyeau, was
born. Mr.. Steady, who was boru in
Canada, was brought to Hlnesburg by
his parents when he was two years Old,
and lived there until his marriage. They
lived there a couple OF years during
which time the eldst son, Lewis. was
born, They later moved to Island Pond
| where Mr. Steady, who ~ a carpenter by
trade, worked at carpenter work for the
Grand Trunk Railway Co. for nearly
twenty-six years. He WAS working fol
them at the time the road narrowed
their guage, changing from wide, to
what is known as standard guage.
To them have been born niue sons
six of whom are living, Lewis c.,
Leonard, Henry, Edward, George and
Fred. Leonard and Henry are both en-
gineers on the Grand Trunk.
In speaking of themselves, both ex
pressed great thanktulness that they
were enjoying such good health and Mr.
Steady added that he attributed his ex
cellent physical condition to the fact
that he had always been a strictly TEN
perance man, and never used iutoxicat
ing liquor or tobacco in any form.
The family is a talented one, must
cally, and frequently have family gather
ings, when as Mrs. Steady said, Nv
have some great sings" A curious 60
incidence in Mr.. Steady's family wa
that his four brothers enlisted in tn
Civil War, and all came home, servin
nutil the war was closed and receivin
an honorable discharge.
