Springtime

Spring is here without a
doubt; the small boy has doffed
his shoes and stockings, DOM
ed his last years straw hat
and with his pockets full of
marbles can be seen down on
his knees in the dirt deep in
the mysteries of knuckle and
taw. A few days later when
tired Of marbles you will find
him on the banks of a creek
with a can full of worms, a
hickory pole and a fish line,
having a glorious time. The
buds on the tree will hardly
show a tint of green before he
will be swimming, taking
cramps and just missed being
drowned, having oceans of fun,
bad colds and soar throat. Oh,
halcyon days of youth, oh
spring time Of life, oh days of
mumps. measles and Stone
bruises, all too quickly you fly;
the boy grows to manhood; old
age grows on apace, a few
more years and he totters on
the brink of the grave; yet a
man never grows SO old but
that in the spring when the
boys first get out with their
marbles he will stop a moment
to watch the game and men,
ory will recall days long since
past.

The Optimist

The optimist, while he sees
much of the evil, sees also
much Of the good. He sees
more of the beauty, hears
more of the music; his mental
vision is keener, his spiritual
insight is deeper. His whole
view of life is one of promise.
When the problems, vexa-
tions, and temptations come,
he stands squarely in his path,
and by attitude and expression
declares his firm belief in the
ultimate good. He has many
experiences, and sometimes he
fails; but he rises stronger in
resolution for having discover
ed a weakness. There is in
him something that never
yields. He looks upon evil as
something to be overcome. He
makes effort, in proportion to
this does he elevate himself to
a higher plan of life. He has a
mission in the world, and pro-
ceeds to do his work. This is
usually done without demons
tartion. His force is like the
sublime forces of the universe
silent, but always acting. Like
the pessimist, his life and
thoughts are contagious; un.
like the pessimist, he is al
ways welcome. If the two come
face to face, he will never
yield to the latters influence
He knows that eternal truth
and goodness are working
through him, and he believes
in their ultimate triumph.

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
THE TRAGIC FATE OF AD-
MIRAL RYNG.
BY A. w. MACY.

Admiral John Byns Of the
British navy, bungIed a battle
and was shot for it. In 1856 he
was sent with his squadron to
protect a British station on the
island Of Minorca, In the Med
iterranean. He came to an en-
gagement with the French fleet,
but managed his vessels very
poorly, and the French we're vic
torious. When news Of the de-
feat reached England there was
a great outcry. The admiral was
brought home and tried by court
martial. The court found him
guilty Of not having done his ut
most to win the battle, but ac-
quilted him of coWardice and
disaffection and recommend
ed him to mercy on that
account. But there was a
stringent law at that time which
prescribed death for negligence
on the part Of an admiral, and
the king decided not to inter
fere with the verdict. Byng,
however, was not without friends
and defenders. Many people
believed the government itself
was at fault in not furnishing
him with an adequate equip
ment Of men and ships, and
made him a scape-eoat for It's
own shortcomings. His trial and
execution made deep impress
sion on the public mind, and
doubtless led to a modification
Of the law. The admiral met his
death braveIy, but it was need
less cruelty to shoot him on a
ship he had formerly CON-
manded.

efforts.
It has been said that the
tariff is a local issue and, in a
large measure, the same may
be said of prosperity. The
business men of this vicinity
have it in their power to pros
perity in this locality, but, in
order to accomplish something
definite, their money must be
kept at home and spent at
home. Our general welfare will
not be promoted by sending it
to Canada or to any part of the
world with which we have no
daily business relation.

We often pride ourselves on our good
qualities as citizens and justly so. But
if we look into our everyday lives sincerely
we can see lots of weaknesses and bad
habits.
One Of these is the unspeakably corrupt
habit Of profane language
Take any group of men, either in the
workshop, office, saloon, factory, or at the
baseball grounds, and the prevailing dis
course is almost invariably something rot
ten, scurrilous, smutty, corrupt and impure
and punctuated by that Holy Name which
should be used only in prayer.
