How much OF a mans income shold
be spent for rent? Benjamin G.
Marsh, OF New York, executive secre
tary Of the committee on congestion
of population, told the Citizenship
Glass OF the South Congregational
church of this city that no wage-earn-
er should pay more than 20 per cent.
OF his income for rent, says the Boston
Globe. This Is cutting the scale down,
as there is a saying that one-fourth OF
the income can be wisely devoted to
rent. Perhaps conditions are chang
ing and Mr.. Marsh Is right One-ffth
of the income certainly leaves a larger
margin to be devoted to the purchase
OF food. clothing and other necessities
and gives little chance TO save. But
1t is not always possible to find suit
able accommodations with a fifth OF
the income. nor with fourth for that
matter. Rent is not a luxury, bat q
fixed charge. and 1t IL not always what
man wants to pay or can AFFORD to
pay. but what conditions compel him
to pay.

The Lame Beggar.

One cold frosty morning when 1 was
on my way to school l met man whom
1 noticed very closely because of his
beggarlike appearance.
When / first saw him he was coming
down hill carrying large stick nearly
as long as himself, for he was not very
tall; but he did not use it until he
noticed me and then he quickly became
affected with the rheumatism, or some
thing else, and instantly converted il
into cane.
He was very dark. having dark eyes
and jet black hair which was rather
long as it hung far below his old hat
that suppose some one had given him.
His coat was badly torn and much toe
large for him and his overalls were very
dirty and much patched and as each
patch was of different color they re.
sembled bedquilt more than any
thing else. FLORENCE McLERAN.

THE TREND OF THOUGHT
IN THE AUDUBON HIGH SCHOOL

long stay on account of their mother
health and the girls were sent to the
home of their Uncle Jack and Aunt
Emma as it was not possible to take
them along.
Uncle Jack lived in the country and
at the4tirst glimpse they had of his
home, as he was bringing them from
the little town to which they had come
by rail, they thought they had never
before seen a place SO beautiful On a
grassy knoll, in the center of large
well kept lawn was the house, big and
white and comfortable looking, with
green shutters. Stretching away from
this on all sides were gently rolling
fields and meadows with ripping
little stream dancing along the lower
end of the farther meadow. Under a
clump of trees which shaded the banks
of this small creek some of the cows
were lying, lazily chewing their cud.
There were great many things to
see and discover the first few days while
everything was new to them. but the
greatest thing of all to their minds was
when Uncle Jack, with twinkle in his
eye, announced that the next day they
were to commence haying and as help
was short the girls would have to drive
the horses for the hay loader.
So it was with great deal of excite
ment that the girls donned their ging-
ham aprons and sunbonnets the next
morning and climbed into the hayrack.
When Uncle Jack drove quickly out to
the hay field the hayrack jostled and
bounced them so much that the tears
came into their eyes. When the hay
loader was fastened to the rack Uncle
Jack gave them the lines and explained
to them how and where to drive.
Neither of them had ever driven horse
before but they did as well as could be
expected and as Uncle Jack laughed
with them when they left too much hay
at the sides, they tried their best to do
better. When they had as big a load
as they could manage, they started
home, Uncle Jack driving as before,
only more slowly this time. 1t was
pecks of fun lying down in the hay up
50 high that they couldn't see anything
but the sky and they didn't dare get
very far from the center for fear of
sliding off. As soon as they reached
the barn Uncle Jack helped them down
and then told them to go over under
the trees and rest until they were ready
to go again. The second time they were
able to drive a little better than the
first and they enjoyed it as much as
before.
At dinner time Aunt Emma asked,
Aren't you tired enough of farm life
to wish yourselves back home or on the
trip with your father and mother"
"Oh, no." they answered in one
breath. why, think what we should
have missed if we had gone with them?"

A Word OF Appreciation.

The members of the High School
faculty were very much pleased last
Thursday evening to find that in spite
of the cold weather, the High School
assembly room was comfortably filled
with visitors when the time came for
presenting the Christmas entertainment
The brilliantly lighted room, garland
ed in green and red, plentifully hung
with Christmas bells, and disclosing at
the corners of the platform two gaily
decked Christmas trees formed an ap-
propriate setting for the selections rem
dered and gave the illusion for the time
being that Santa was in the height of
his reign here in Audubon.
Andthe pupils deserve commendation
for the character of the entertainment
they afforded. 1t means something to
render with an appreciative spirit uni
formly serious numbers; and this they
did Moreover they made beginnings
along new lines of effort, as dramatic
readings, original stories, and cantatas
have not received attention for some
years past from the pupils. When the
High School teachers reflect that during
this program two effective dramatic
readings showing accurate and sympa-
thetic expression were given; that an
original short story, presenting a fine
thought in bit of natural and vivid
picture sketching, was read; and that a
cantata filled with the spirit of rever-
ence was sung sweetly and expressively
they feel justified in praising the pupils
for their sincerity and their industry in
their school work

in THE GOYERNOR's FAVOR

Three distinct points in Gov Frear's favor
were brought ont during this mornings hearing
before Secretary Fisher E
l. 1t was testified by Land Agent w. @. All:
ken that homesteads opened on Mainland which
afterward proved unsuccessful, were opened
against the Judgment of Mr.. Aiken, and that this
opening was prior to Governor FreaFs admins
trati0n.
3 1t was testified by Richard Iyers that to
the best Of his knowledge no homesteads opened
during Gov. Frear's administration have been
. sold or leased by the homesteaders; in other
words, that in this respect the demonstrating has
been bona fide and the homesteaders able to
work their lands.
g. When the question was raised as to the
history Of the present discretionary powers Civ
EN- the governor on demonstrating application
and operation, lit was shown that Gov Frear sub
mitted the problem to the House committee on
territories at Washington, and that the land
avs in this respect were decided upon by the
House committee, with the approval Of the dele.
gate at that time.
The bearing Of these three points is this: They
are in direct contradiction to the delegates COM
plant that the governor is to be blamed for the
workings and non-workings Of the present land
laws and for the effect-and lack Of effect-of
the present land laws.
