The Advantage Of Riding a Hobby

Every man and woman should
have a vocation and an avocation.
Your vocation is the thing you de-
pend upon for your bread and butter
and clothes and house rent
Your avocation is your plaything,
your rest, your recreation, your emer-
gency brake, your psychic governor,
your spark arrester, your safety fuse
that takes care of you when there is
danger of a short circuit in your GER
ebrum
Your ayocation brings into play an
other set OF mental muscles and
gives you fit preparation for the bat
tie of life. 1t supplies the resiliency
or resisting power, lends endurance,
courage, faith and self reliance.
The farmers wives who go insane
are suffering for lack Of a fad, a hob
by, play spell
The business men who slip their
trolleys. and the specialists who 60

and galloped it hard and fast an hour
day.
II your work is indoors, get a hob
by that takes YOU out If your work
is hard work, get a fad that makes

nothing better be a fight fan or a
baseball iiend. These things will
inspire you 10 get a medicine ball
| and use il, or an indoor baseball and
pull the household, including your
wife. the children, grandpa and the
hired girl into the game
When Edmund Burke was in his
early twentes he experienced a
great aaring up of intellect, tappins
a big reservoir of power. And when
the mood was on he utilized the cos
mic current instead of grounding It,
and wrote an immortal book.
This book is known to us as
Burke on the Sublime"
! The joker here gets his chance and
comes in with the sublime and ride
ulous'
An there is no doubt that people
who reach the sublime often appeal
ridiculous to those who don't OF
can't
The enthusiast supplies mirth foi
the onlOokers But the enthusiast is
the man who eliminates and finds
rest for his convolutions.
Only this BE sure to enthuse con
corning more than one thing. A good
golf enthusiast always enthuses over
his business-the pendulum swings
out as far in one direction as in the
other and one enthusiasm helps the
other.
The business man who loves rose,
will make a success of both bushes.
and roses and will never have ner
vous prostration.
Men are to be judged by their avo
cation rather than by their vocation
Your vocation may be a thing tina
fate compels you to do but your avo
cation you chose yourself. You ar,
what you are on account of the wa,
you spend your leisure time. Thl
Is the real you.
Elihu Burritt was a blacksmith al
day. but in the evening he was some
thing else. Robert Collyer was tn,
same.
The question is. How do you I'll
in the chinks of the day? What d.

and each evening from to 8?

your boy or girl has a hobby, encoul

from The Tribune Bureau
Washington, Dec. 14.-President Taft
has consented to be honorary president
OF the Carnegie Peace Foundation, for
the establishment OF which $1O.OOO,OOO
first mortgage 3 per cent bonds were
transferred TO q board Of trustees by
Andrew Carnegie to-day. Senator Elihu
Root. who, as Secretary Of State, was
he foremost exponent of the idea OF
interna tional arbitration, will be the ac-
tive president. The expenditure OF the
annual income of SJOO,OOO to hasten
the abolition of international war" will
be left entirely TO the board in per-
petuity, or until the object is attained,
after which it will be devoted to the
abolition of the next most degrading
evil or evils
The manner in which the money is to
be applied 10 achieve the end Of the
foundation is yet to be determined by
The trustees. among whom are distin-
guished diplomats, lawyers, business
men and university men from all parts
O, the country. Although Mr.. Carnegie.
in his informal trust deed, suggests the
promotion of international arbitration as
a substitute for war, there are many
methods by which this object may be
brought about
Both President Taft and Senator Root
have constantly adhered TO the idea of
international arbitration, the success of
which was signalized this year in the
settlement Of the North Atlantic coast
fisheries dispute before the Hague tribu-
nal. Steps have also been taken tend
ing to the abandonment Of the tradl-
tional reticence of nations in extending
their good offices in the settlement Of
disputes of other countries. Senator
Root has been especially interested in
the development and formulation Of a
BODY of international law, and it is pos
sible that the Carnegie endowment may
be devoted to collecting and codifying SO
much of it as now. exists in scattered
treaties, records of international con-
crosses and the Foreign Office archives
Of various countries. The achievement
OF this task would simplify in large
measure the work of international gath
erings Of the future, and would serve as
a starting point for development, which.
I'D to this time, has been to great ex-
tent scattered, following many lines.
Mr.. Carnegie Announces His Gift.
Surrounded by tWenty-seven trustees
of his own choosing, Mr.. Carnegie an
nounced his great gift AS he read the
informal deed of trust announcing the
general purpose Of his gift there was
prolonged applause. He then explained
the incidents which inspired the gift at
this time, and declared with emphasis
that If the English speaking race in the
United States and Great Britain once
became consolidated in the movement for
international peace the success OF the
measure in the remainder Of the world
would be assured. That Great Britain
stood ready to cooperate with this coun-
try Mr.. Carnegie said he felt certain, and
all that was now needed. he added, was
the concurrence Of the President and the
