THE COUNTRY GIRL IN TOWN.
By EDWIN A. NYE.

She is going alone to the city.
In the country nothing happens. Life
there is q monotone. And the CIR
is to be content and that the cuie,
places are the best.
She is discontinued.
Does she not see the same faces
every Sunday at the church and al
the picnics: She knows one as Bill,
| another as Sarah" and the familiarity
has become trite. And over all the
countryside is the never changing iool
of things. Yonder is the city, Every
thing there is difrerent-plenty OF new
faces and sensations. The scene:
change like a Kaleidoscope. The city
air is tonic. Surely life is fuller there
She is young and innocent.
|. She dreams fanciful dreams. She is
impatient of restraint. She is lured by
the glamour Of the town. She does no'
know how safe is the sheltered life q
the quiet neighborhood and how dan
gerOuS the city. She does not know the
human limits Of her virtues under
strong temptation. She does not know
that her gentleness of nature prevents
her using upon the deceitful temptel
the force of scorn which the sophisti
Gated can summon to their aid. She
does not know her own weakness.
Poor lassie,
Her loving disposition scarcely
knows how to deny. Her sweet I'm
selfshness scarcely is able to refuse
Every best quality of her girlish sell
may lead to her undoing. There the
defenseless chicken strays. over thai
place hovers the cruel hawk ant
swoops upon its prey.
Innocent girl!
If she should chance to fall into the
wrong set of associates and there
should be no one near and intimate
enough to warn and guide-why, Goo
help the child.
If, however, the girl is strong OF
character, we'll instructed by a care
full mother, capable Of restraint, sell
reliant, she will take good care OF
herself, render a good account and rist
above the dangerous undercurrents OF
temptatio
But If not
If not she will be swallowed up by
the nsatiable nav of the city to bt
def1led and spewed out, bereft of al
girl.

tend to grow old. Those who trust the
Lord shall preserve their strength. and ]
trust the Lord.
The brave words were uttered by a
woman who is ninety-two years old
or, better, ninety-two years young
Fanny Crosby, the well known writer
of Christian hymns.
Speaking to a vast audience in New
York the ether day, she turned upon
the people eyes that have been sight
less from the time she was FIVE years
old. Since she was a child this blind
singer has composed hymns. If you
were to strike from the church hymn.
nology the productions Of Fanny eros.
by you would leave the collections poor
indeed. And you could fill many ordi
nary hymnals from her songs alone.
Il don't intend to grow old" What
splendid optimism! And she never
will grow old-in spirit. Because OF
the sublime optimism Of her life she
has lived long and usefully; because OF
hope and OF trust.
And as the great audience was thrill
ed by the words Of the young old wo
man of ninety-twO, so has the Chris
tian world been stirred to enthusiast n
by the sacred songs Of this sweet sing
er of Israel. Optimism is vitality
Pessimism is poison. CAN it what yor
will - Christian faith. new thought
Christian Science, suggestive thera
peutics, or what not-optimism Is life
Some of US who have boxed the com
pass Of religious thinking and come
back to the simple religion Of mothers
knee call 1t Christian faith.
Why Fanny Crosby has not grown
old is because Of her simple and beau
tiful trust, because she has had young
thoughts, sought young company, KEEP
young spirit. Age is not Of the
spirit. The body may grow old, bu
by faith the spirit is renewed from
day to day, and. such is the force OF
spirit over material, the body itself Is
wonderfully preserved.
And so the blind singer is not tired
of life. On the contrary. she says she
intends to live to celebrate the ont
hundredth anniversary Of her birth
May she accomplish her desire.
Who puts faith and hope and trus
into the hearts of mortals puts int
the world the tremendous forces of AZ
surance and confidence and couraS
and health.

They have queer ways OF doing

are aware by this time, but the fact
that they virtually impose a tax on

TRUCK FARMING FOR JUVENILES

From the Chicago Record Herald
Vacation schools have been greatly
praised for their work of taking city
children out into the fields and giving
them a taste of country life and an in
terest in country matters. But in New
York city closer connection has been
brought about by the National High
ways Protective Association, which
has gone into juvenile farming on a
large scale on the upper East Side. 1t
has secured waste land sufficient for
five or six hundred small plats. has
leveled and fortified it, and has put
its colony of youthful truck farmers
at work. The plan amuses the chill
dren, instructs them, interests them
by making them the owners of the
crops produced. and finally keeps
them off the streets.

Delegates who had made a careful

Mrs. Belle lsraels suggested that the
country schoolhouses be made the
centers around which the life OF the
rural community would revolve. This
has been done in some sections and
with marked success, improvements

High Power Bills Explained.

Mayor Babb has requested that those
patrons of the city's power plant
who have made complaint about the
large power bills during the past sew
eral months, take into consideration
the time that the lights have been
burning and figure out for themselves
the reason for it. At this season of
the year it is a well known fact that
more lights are being burned and the
current is used longer than at any
other season. Last year the total DOW
er bill for the month of September. ac-
cording to the records in the city
clerks office, was $562.01 Each sue
ccssive month saw the total go higher
until the total in January reached
$l,o93.53 and then it began to decrease
1t will be seen that the big power bills
are of annual recurrence at this time
Of the year and unless it seems that
an unreasonable charge has been
made, suggesting that a mistake has
occurred, the mayor requests that no
kick be registered. At the same time,
he said that each bill is accom-
panied by an itemized statement of the
amount of current used and the figures
by which the amounts are computed.
1t is therefore an easy matter for any
body to compute for themselves the
bills of each month
