a Story ITO Often Tcla.

Last week young man VIII" tad
confidence Of his employers aud the
entire community, bank cashier.
was found short in lis cash $35 eco,
he having left his home. He confess
ed to having taken the money, said he
had lost it in speculating. The story
is an old one that has been often re-
told. Having lost money Of his OWE
he 'borrowed' Thousand dollars Of
the banks money tc retrieve his loss,
lost that, and "borrowed' more, until
he was so hopeless]y involved that he
could not face his friends.
So much for our money fevered age,
and the false values we put on things.
One cannot rest satisfied with simple
living, but must strive for more, more,
and yet more, until home is broken
up and happiness impossible.
The cry of the age seems to be "Get
money, fairly if possible, but GET
IT." We have travelled far from the
road of the wise writer who pleaded,
s'Lord, give me neither poverty nor
riches; lest I be full and forget thee,
or lest steal ard take thy name in
vain" We need to get back to this
attitude, to humble ourselves, to see
things in their true values.
In many respects our times are far
better than the past, but in the whole
some aid simple lives of our forefath-
ers there is much that is worth pre-
serving. They did not, perhaps, live
in as fine houses as their children, but
their homes We're the scenes Of natur-
al living and the joys that all may
share, which are, after all, the real
joys, the common joys of small sacri-
fees, of the love Of children and par
ents, the peace of the rest that fol-
lows after toll.
Once we grasp these things again
we are safe, and the temptation to
use dishonest means to make money
has no fears for us.-Carolina Spartan.
