Some Good Advice.

Remember, my son, you have
to work. Whether you handle
a pick or pen, a wheelbarrow or
set of books, dig bitches or edit
a paper, ring an auction bell or
write funny thlngs-you must
work. If you look around, you
Will see the men who are the
most able to live the rest of their
days without work are the men
who work the hardest. Don t
fear of killing yourself by over
work. 1t Is beyond your power
to do that on the sunny side of
thirty. They die sometime, but
It's because they quit work at
6 p. m. It's the interval that
kills, my son. The work gives
you perfect and grateful appre.
citation of holiday. There are
young men who do not work, but
the world is not proud of them;
1t simply speaks of them as old
So.and Sos boy. Nobody likes
them; the great busy world
doesn't know that they are there.
So find out what you want to be
and do, and take off your coat and
make dust IN the world. The
busler you are less harm you will
be apt to get into, the sweeter
will be your sleep, the brighter
and happier holidays, and the
better satisfied the world will
be with you-Bob Burnett,

Wearing Away of the Earth.

Investigations by the United

erosion of numerous drainage
basins of the United States show
that the surface of the country
IS being removed at the average
rate of about an inch In 760 years.

the country it, becomes stupen-
dous when considered as a total,

SANE FOURTH OF JULY.
Why Not Follow The Example Set by
Progressive Towns in Other
Counties?

Our Town Council would win
the commentator Of every right
thinking citizen if 1t would at
once pass an ordinance prohibit
ing the putting off of fire crack.
ers of any kind, sort, or descrlp.
ton within the borough limits.
Aside from the danger to the
persons who explode them, and
to the possers' by, they are a nui.
sance and an annoyance to the
people-especially so to the sick,
OF whom we have an unusually
large number.
AS night and darkness ap.
proach, this town is in a condi-
ton of nervous dread, anyhow,
from the fires of unquestioned
lncendlary origin which have oc.
Cured periodically during the
past few months. To permit the
use of fire crackers and Sky
rockets-whlle IN themselves a
danger-might present desired
opportunity to a "Flre Bug" to
destroy another property for a
little excitement.
We hope council will not only
pass such an ordinance but en-.
force it after 1t is passed.
Since the above was put IN
type, we are informed that there
already exists an ordinance, and
that 1t will be rlgldly enforced
