Monotony

Does your body ever rebel at
the sameness of things in gener-
al with your daily avocation
Does it ever take the shape of
monotony? Life is a grind, if
we allow the duties to become
so.
About all one can hope 10 do
and do, 10 escape such results is
TO meet each day with a smiling
face a heart tuned to the fulfill
ment Of those duties which the
hands find TO do.
Monotony comes only to the
minds that do not feel the full
import of duty. Life is of ne
cessity an active proposition.
We must not rest on our oars.
Pull for the shore is the call
% duty.
Where the mind becomes clog
raI with hopeless meditations
about euynuns that daily con-
from, usit incapacitates its caUa-
bI.ty for the broader opening 90
the fields e,ysian.
One should not dwell long con-
sidenng conditions that are inn
possible of remedy Go forward
% the work and trust 10 the
higher order Of things for re-
suits.
Monotony never knocks at the
door of active forces. Keep up
the gait that means nothing
more than a large fulhliment Of
your obligations 20 your fell
lows.

Breaking Even

Life in its manifold meaning
leaves the way clear for a wide
scope Of speculation. Divergent
paths confront US and he who
hopes to break even must needs
be ever on the alert. He who
reads must run There is a lone
star of attraction by which we
are usually guided and its draw
ing propensites are governed
largely by thecogditions confront
ing the various minds attracted
Brave hearts. and true, keep
the straight and narrow way.
Those Of lesser purpose find the
winding paths. All lead toward
the grave bat all do not lead TO
the city Of God. Even this path,
though has a widely different
meaning TO different individuals.
Breaking even on the deal
should be the hope, the aim of
one and all. That this may be
done each must feel the call TO
duty and through this channel
pave the way toward the goal.

and where the first turkey was found.
A century ago wiser heads than his
did not find the question easy to dis
pose Of, and their discussion was i'm.
portant enough to attract the atten-
tion OF the learned Prof. Beckmanp
Some claimed It was first found In
Africa, whence 1t was brought in early
days for the banquets OF the Romans
Others believe that, because Of its
name, It must have come from Turkey
"a term then applied vaguely to Tar
tary and even to Asia in general. Its
German name. kalekuter. led to the
assertion that the first specimens had
been shipped from Calcutta: but those
inclining to this opinion were laughed
at by others, who said that kalekuter
was simply the German attempt to
express the birds cry. A few believe
that the bird was an importation from
the new world. And while learned
heads wagged over the problem the
turkey went straight on gobbling Its
way into European barnyards.

The first official mention Of our ma
