Some Don'ts and Dos.

Don't tell another when you are
down and out. If you put a mark OF
defeat on yourself how can you ex-
pect others to help you?
Don't approach a man with apology
Rather make him feel it is a privilege
to handle your wares.
Do try new ways and methods. II
you find a better way it is ~nnneces-
sary to stick to a rule.
DO begin your days work with
courage and a smile.
Beware Of flattery and don't con-
fuse it with good will.
Don't cry when you are worsted
Like a great general, rally your forces
and then begin the battle anew.
Don't be afraid Of knowledge. II
never harms anyone and is sure tt
answer you in good stead.
Do put some ginger into your work
Work, like food, is improved by sea.
soning.
DO try and make the most Of everS
undertaking. even the smallest o.
them.
Belittle no man. We are here tt
help others, not to pull them down.
Be honest with yourself. Sincerity
is a weapon which your ~stronges'
opponent cannot destroy.
Be willing to Judge others Ieniently
and be a hard taskmaster with your.
self.
Be sure you are In the right, ant
then keep on though you can only Sc,
failure ahead.

GIDEON BIBLES
IN STATE PEN
QUESTION Is RAISED WHY CHRIS
TAN ORGANIZATION OF U. c.
IT'S DON'T PUT BIBLES IN THE
STATE PENITENTIARY AT BIS
MARCK.

Some organization, commercial or
otherwise, could do no greater service
to humanity than to put a Bible in
every cell in the state penitentiary,
says an exchange. The Gideons, the
christian commercial travellers asso-
citation of America, has installed thou
sands Of Bibles in the hotels of the
country, and the local body of this or
~ganization has put something like
1000 in the different hotels of Fargo.
But it is hardly probable that this or
~ganiZation would take the matter up,
as they have started off with the dis
tinct purpose of first putting a Bible
in every room of every hotel in the
United States, and they would proba-
bly, not deviate from their set pro-
gramme.
While the placing of Bibles in the
rooms of the hotels of the country is
a great work, and the Gideons deserve
much credit for what they are doing,
it cannot be disputed that the placing
of the Holy Bible in the cells of the
p~enitentiaries would be a much great
er and a more lasting benefit to the
country at large.
1t is hardly to be expected that any
great portions of the patrons of no.
tells will trouble themselves to read the
Bibles they find in the hotel rooms,
while the %convicts, who have hours
and hours of solitude and time for
thought, would avail themselves Of the
opportunity to learn more Of the
teachings Of the Iowly Nazarene. The
number of appeals for reading matter
that are always being sent out from
the different state prisons attests the
willingness and desire of these un-
fortunate people to spend their odd
times at an advantage to themselves.
Who knows but that the placing OF
Bibles in the cells Of these poor fell
lows might turn large numbers OF

eIDEoNs IN TENNESSEE.
Celebrate the Thirtisth Anniversary
of Organization.

Gideons over the state of Tennessee
will celebrate the thirtieth anniver-
sary Of their organization May 10.
Pres. Benton M. Johnson OF the Ten
nessee Gideons, the christian CONNER
cial travellers association Of America,
has issued a call to all members of the
order in the state to observe the day
ittingly and, wherever possible, to oc-
cupy some pulpit and tell the people
what the Gideons are, why they are
and what they are doing.
So far as could be learned last week
local Gideons are making no prepara-
ton to celebrate the event, they hav-
ing heard nothing Of the event except
through the press, which printed Pres
ident Johnson's call.
10000 Bibles.
The Gideons were organized thirteen
years ago with a mere handful OF
members. Today they are 5000
strong and are working toward their
great goal, which is the placing Of a
Bible in every room of every hotel in
the United States. Already something
like 100000 have been placed in the
hotels of the country and there has
been at no time a let-up in the work.
The Gideons, by general subscrip-
ton have raised funds and placed BIZ
bles in approximately 1000 hotel
rooms in the Nashville hotels. The
Hermitage, Maxwell, Tulane, Duncan,
Savoy and Hartman have all beer
supplied with Bibles and the remain
ing hotels will possibly be provided
for within a few months.
