SAME OIL cuss

(By James Sitsom Siniley)
He is sitting on the curbln'
A restin' on his hip,
A squirtin' of terbacker juice
And shootin' off his lip.
Jes how and when twill happen,
This feller can give tip
Who is sittin' on the curbin'
A shootin' off his lip.
He peers into the fueher,
Catches wisdom in his grip,
While squirtin Of terbacker juice
And a shootin' off his lip.
When the nominations over

This same Oh cuss win still be foun
A sittin in the shade.
A cussin' and a damnin'
And a shootin' off his lip
A squirtin' Of terbacker juice
And a restin' on his hip.

good will, and have seemed
pleased at my little sermons each
week. | trust none of you will think
l am trying to preach" at you, but
am afraid shall have to find fault
with great many of you for what
may appear simple things.
In the first place-so few of you
speak Of your parents, I have
almost concluded the P. C. C. is COM
posed mostly of orphans.
In the second place: few of you,
very few of you are deriving any ben
eft from the schooling which it is
costing your parents so much to give
you.
The proof of this last is in the let
ters [ have been receiving. Of all
those reviewed since / have been
writing to you, l doubt if half doz-
en- have passed to the printer with
out my having to correct the spell
ing. punctuation-and in some cases
rewriting of the whole letter.
SThis leads me to say: it is only by
concentrating our minds and thoughts
on the things we are doing that
makes it possible for us to do it
thoroughly.
| knew young lady who was pre-
pairing for her wedding; she and the
young man were very much in love
with each other and of course the
young lady was engrOSSed in her we'd
ding plans. She was helping her
mother with the hOusework and one
day the mother asked her to carry a
tray Of dishes from the kitchen to
the dining-room: the young lady
picked up the tray, walked past the
dining-room, carried it to her
mothers room, where they had been
sewing on some of the wedding fin
cry, and laid the tray very carefully
on the bed
1t is very easy to understand that
young lady's mind wasn't on the
question Of dinner, wasn't it? But of
course, she was to be excused, as
young ladies about to be married are
always worried over their new
dresses and things.
But the boy and girl who go to
school day after day, and who pay
so little attention to the studies as
to derive very little benefit from
them, are wasting their time and the
money of their parents.
The boy who goes to feed the COW
or the horse, and who does simply
that and no more; who will not see
that the cow and horse are made
comfortable, will never succeed at
farming.
It is only by paying attention to
all that concerns the matter we are
interested in, that enables us to get
all out of that matter, possible to get
out of it.
Did you ever hear the story of the
man who went to Italy? He found
a gold piece the first day be arrived,
and for the rest of his stay he walked
about with his eyes on the ground.
He saw none of the gorgeous noun
tain scenery; he enjoyed none of the
magnificent sunsets, the beautiful
pictures the superb architecture-he
saw none Of these because he was
looking only for gold pieces.
And he found no more gold So
in all things worthy your time, get
all out Of them that you can. Your
studies will lead you to customs,
manners histories and lives Of peO-
pie from whom you may learn much
1t isn't simply question Of dates.

cinating thing when you realize that

ASSOCIATION OF IDEAS.

Why We Tie string Around Finger
to Remember Something.
We speak of the association Of ideas.
We do not associate ideas In our mind,
but we associate the mental picture
of things -of forms and colors and
other material qualities. We can form
no conception Of an abstract quality.
as goodness. except In It's association
with material thing.
Every thought must have . material
basis. and 1t Is retained In our mind
through association with some other
object. the picture Of which we have
retained. There are some things SO
closely bound up in our existence or
that have been reproduced SO often
that no effort is required to instantly
recall them or reproduce them In our
mind. Our name, our birthday or
something that we know by heart and
can repeat without an effort, are ex-
amples. Most things require an effort
to recall them. and we recall num-
Der Of things and try to find one with
which the thing we seek IL associated
In tying the string around the finger
we associate the idea. the deed or the
thing that we want to remember with
the string or knot. Az this Is FREE
quently seen. we frequently get the
association between the string and the
thing we want to remember. and this
serves to recall it.-New York Ameri-
