 The Sentinel Record is interested in the good roads movement, just as In every other movement for the pet terment of the county and city. Just as soon as the new judic al district was formed it became apparent that a highway between Mt. Ida and Hot Springs was a necessity, and with County Juus- Farmer We joined forces which will bring results with in two weeks.
 The people Of Baciksvi.ie, csen clos ar to Us thaa Mt. Ida, now want a good highway, and 1t is just as im- portant that this be built as that the other be built. Buckville is much closer to Hot Springs, and persons willing to make the trip on the 18th may leave early in the morning. spend the day at Buckville, and return i'll the evening, enjoy days outing, and all the while lend the.r enthusiasm to one of the best movements now before the people.

Origin of Common Sense.

In your dreams the unusual seems
SO real because it is the only idea
your brain has There is none other
with which to adjust it. Hence it
seems perfectly natural when in your
sleep you see a horse flying or an
elephant playing the piano. In your
waking hours the universe is present
to orientate you.
Common sense is the wisdom that
comes from all the common Or ordin-
airy things about you; and it is vastly
more reliable. than any wisdom that is
mysterious things, that happen but
once in awhile or never at all.
Common sense is hard to get and to
keep. 1t is much easier to obey a
For this reason the majority Of the
human race hand their thinking over
to some person or institution to be
done for them. 1t saves worry. 1t is
nice, easy, lazy way to sail along
through life.
But the opposite of almost every
rule or proverb is true. Books on
whist tell us that one of the most
important things about the rules of
the game is when to break them.
And in the game of life it is equal
ly necessary not only to- know the
laws but to know when and how to
overstep them.
For instance, it is a good rule to
pay as you go. But if you stick to
that you will never build up a great
business, for the vast commerce of
the world rests upon credit basis
Just when to pay cash and when to
run bill is what no book can tell
you. And yet that is precisely the
most vital thing to know

DON'T FORM LIFE BY RULES

There is no short cut to character; ii
is long road and full of lions but
mighty interesting and worth while"
r IFE is not simple. 1t is complex.
Hence, beware of rules.
A rule is substitute for
knowing what to do. 1t is merely a
continuance which enables you to pre-
tend to wisdom by initiating yourself.
1t is doing today what you did yes
terday, when you were probably as
much of fool as you are now.
What you need most is common
sense. Common sense is the rare
ability to look on all sides of a case
and determine the most practical So
luton.
1t is directly opposed to insanity.
Insane persons can see but one thing
at a time. They are obsessed by one
idea. If you saw your dead grand
mother walk into your room you
would pinch yourself and look about
you to see if you were awake. In
other words, a sane man always COM
pares new impression with the
stock of impressions he has on hand
to see if it fits. 1t it does not he
casts it ont and concludes that his liv-
er is diseased, or that he has been
drinking too much and walking too
little.

THE ApOlOC|zERS

There was a whoop and bang at
the front entrance to the sanctum OF
the Angel Ledge Weekly Pioneer, and
six feet four of armed aggressiveness
bounded inside, defying the scribes,
the presses and the pen, which some
say is mighteir than the sword.
"ShOW your smutty, smeary faces,
you loose-j ointed, bald headed paper

mani Don't skulk in tub Of ink like

The amiable visitor took chance

There was a sound of hurried s1Gf
ni.g in the back of the old printery.
as if the tlmid paper-writerS might
suddenly have been called to their
NJ mes and loved ones A pause fol
lowed and then somebody's blue eyes
showed at a bullet hole made in a
flin1sy partition by some previous
equally we'll intentioned visitor.
What is it, pleased" asked a soft,
delicate voice.
oh. We-o-o-w. Vow" yelled the
big man. DO you know who | am?
I'm RipsnorJer Rufus from Cayenne
t:ulch!'
The delicate voice was heard in a
little chuckle Honored-immense-
ly. Want to you your subscription,
Mr.. Ripsnorter?'
Ripsnorter Rufus growled like a
Gagged tigress. NAV, | just want to
bite you in two and throw one half in
Salt Lake and the other half over the
north pole, for printin mean measly
lies and falsehoods about me in your

eyed crawfish named Buttercup', writ
a piece about me KILN five men. And
I wishes it distinctly understood that
it were six"
"Tut, TUT" This is too badp' scold-

lady emerged from behind. the fiimsy

rected with apologies, Mr.. RipsnOrt-
er Rufus; but you owe the Pioneer

The girl was fair and trim, with
une winsome light of mischief shining
from her blue eyes and becoming
but determined flush in her cheek. The
pad man from Cayenne Gulch lowered
his smoking weapon and opened his
immense mouth. well, you can hang

Rules Artificial Things.

Always keep your temper. But
there are some times when it is your
duty to lose your temper And Just
when-there's the rub.
Always tell the truth And yet,
upon occasion, you are to tell only
part of the truth, at other times none
of it. if you wish to be really a truth
full person.
And SO on through the whole cate
CORY of commandments Rules are
artificial things made to enable us
to act as if We were good and right,
and true. But it is a great deal bet
ter to be good, and right, and true
In other words, a genuinely good man
aims at character; the man who wants
people to think he is good aims at
conduct.
Instead of rules we need principles
A principle is a general condition of
purpose; rule is made to produce a
particular result. Principles govern
intentions; rules govern acts.
Right conduct is good. But a man
may put it on as he does a coat. And
rascal with a good coat is still a
rascal. When one has good princi-
Piles, however, the good deeds he
does, the truth he tells, and the kind
ness he shows are not put on; they
grow out of his nature.

Where the Difference Lies.

If you are good by rule, you are
like Christmas tree, with apples
pinned on; if you are good from
principle, you are like an apple tree,
with apples growing on.
Beware of the Neverites, the people
who say, 81 never do this or that"
If you never do, at least do not boast
of it.
Mistaken parents devote a great
deal of pains to intoxicating rules
There is something a child needs
more than this. 1t is character. 1t
is strength of will A boy should be
trained to meet the issues of peril and
temptation with a strong, free mind
If he has absorbed and assimilated
good principles, he will come out Of
his trials wiser and cleaner. He will
have both saved his soul and widened
his heart. If he be saved by rules he
may become successful and respect
able. but he is liable to become at
the same time prig and a nuisance.
There has been much dispute over
the rules of Jesus. You will find
them interpreted and set forth differ
emily in the various sects. The rea-
son is not difficult to find. 1t is
that Jesus never gave any rules. He
gave principles. Even when his COM
mandments seems like rules they are
so couched as to make it necessary
for us to take them as principles.
This is why so many persons have
rejected his words, and so many
others have misund erstood them.
