What 10 eisetr;eityf

Many persons young and old often
wonder how the modern electric cars
trains and locomotives are operated
and what electricity is. No one knows
what electricity Is. We know some OF
the things that 1t will do. We have
to a certain extent learned how to con
troll It and for want Of better name
call It q 1uid. We have discovered
too, that It is one Of the most impor
tant forces, If not the most important
force. Of which we have any knowl'
edge. We are almost al ignorant OF
many other great forces Of nature-as
for example. the attraction Of gtavita'
tion. For the present we must be con
tent to observe such forces in action
and 10 devise the best methods to CON
trol them. In this knowledge mankind
has progressed wonderfully within q
few years.-St Nicholas.

The Med Of Ideals.

Mankind always needs ideals
which loom so large in the sight OF
men that they cannot fail to see
them clearly. More than ever is
this true Of today, for the turmoil
and the hurry of modern life raise
q great dust which oftentimes hides
the skies. Enthusiasm, dreams,
hopes are to be encouraged and be-
long to youth, which ever renews it.
self in warm hearts, although rea-
son is needed to cool and guide
them. The fact that we believe
that our ideal is beautiful and holy
Is not ground for forcing it on our
mates. To win success man must
not be a pure idealist, else in prsc-
tical things he will fail, but he must
have ideals, and he must obey them.

Monday night of last week quite a
number Of the young folks assem-
bled at the home of Mr. and Mrs w
X Mcintosh for a surprise party.
After various old-fashioned games,
played on the lawn directly in front
of the home, the crowd was forced
to repair to their homes on account
of the late hour of the night. The
evening was a most delightful one
and those who were so fortunate as
to join these young folks will long
remember the occasion.
The Misses Thorn entertained the
younger set complimentary to Miss
Marian McFadden's guests, Misses
Marie Graham and Nettie McCol-

which was made more pleasant by
the delightful music furnished by

An unusually pleasant affair of the
week was the Japanese fete" on
the court house lawn given by the
Bachelor Maids club Friday night.
The entire square was beautifully
lighted with japanese lanterns,
strung artistically from bower to
bower of the spreading oaks that
go to make this spot a favorite
rendezvous at all times, but it's
attraction was greatly increased by
the brilliantly lighted lawn, hav-
ing numerous seats and cosy corners
arranged. presenting a vision of love-
illness. and each inviting settee hav-
ing for its occupancy a Prince
Charming with his charming prin-
cess Artistic booths were erected
throughout the lawn. from which
were sold punch, ice cream, cake,
sandwiches, candies and peanuts, the
proceeds of which were turned over
to the Civic League for the benefit
of the town. A nice sum was realized
therefrom. The affair was in every
way great success, and every per-
son participating enjoyed the even
ing exceedingly.
Mrs E E King entertained few
of the younger set Wednesday even
ing complimentary to her guest, Miss
Corinne King of Hartsville. A de-
lightful course of cream and cake
was served during the evening.
