IT was noticed that several of the
state exchanges in commenting upon
the appointment of Mr.. f. a. Whit
tier as parole agent, were of the
opinion that he is connected with
the State Board of Pardons. This is
an error, however. He occupies a
position under the State Board of
Parole. His duties consist main
ly of looking up the records of in

Board when acting on applications

MANY MAN makes a failure in
life for the simple reason that he
never cultivates the habit of doing
small things well. In his secret
heart" says an exchange, probably
no man thinks his ability has ever
been recognized at it's true worth.
Nine times out of ten, perhaps the
man who thinks this, neglects in
consequence, the small humble task
he is set to do. He is disconnected,
he is unhappy, he is ready to strike,
or even slight his task to the extent
of cheating his employer as far as he
dares without getting himself dis
charged. By and by he does get
discharged. Then he rails at fate
and rich men, worse than ever. No
man ever succeeded in life who did
not put his conscience into his work,
whatever it was. If you agree to
perform certain labor in return for
certain wages, however small, you
have sold your time and ability. Do
that work the best it can be done.
Form the habit of putting the best
of yourselves into all you do. Work
with enthusiasm over the small tasks
that are your lot at present, always
in hope that greater ones will come
to you by and by. They will be
sure to come"

WE notice that Frenchman has
a plan by which he expects to make
it possible for the people of all the
prlciple nations of the world to un-
derstand each other. His scheme is
to take one language, (the French
for instance), and number all the
words; these numbers to correspond
with words of the same meaning in
all other languages. For example,
we will say that the word yes, is
number so in the French language;
it would likewise be number so IN
all other languages. If the plan is
accepted and comes into general use,

have been reading during the
past week an article in the July issue
of the Forum, entitled "Constitu-

TO GOVERN, RULE, REGULATE.
GOVERN is in French SOltUer7l-

REGULATE means to bring under a
RULE or make by RULE.

To-Day The MIRROR celebrates
the twenty sixth anniversary of its
birth and launches forth into a new
era Of usefulness. with every indi-
cation of enjoying, for long time to
come, the uninterrupted prosperity
and serenity which has marked it's
progress during the past several
years. 1t has long been 80 firmly
established as to be beyond the
reach of the breakers, and together
with it's job plant is entirely self
supporting.
The story of The MIRRORS con.
ception and of it's early struggles is
chronicled elsewere in this issue, so
we will refrain from repetition and
let it suffice to say that the opposi-
ton and handicaps of it's early years
have long ago vanished. and that it's
right of existence has ceased to be
questioned. And today, it receives
the unanimous support of the press
and public.
We do not forget, that while THE
MIRROR is justly proud of it's sue
cess, it's present prosperity was not
attained without friendly aid and
without mourning many obligations.
To the prison management it is but
just and proper TO say to their cred
it, that but for their encouragement
and unfailing courtesy THE MIRROR
could not have reached the posi-
ton it occupies today. The policy
of the prison management in leav-
ing the paper entirely in the hands
of the inmates, Of refraining from
debating or suggesting the manner in
which it should be conducted, has
never altered, and while the War
den reserves to himself the sole right
of censorship, he has always been
liberal in the exercise of that Office.
To our many readers, not only of
the great outside world, but in pris-
on as we'll, we are indebted for their
support and encouragement, and in
return we can only say that it shall
be our constant effort to give them
as good a paper in the future as they
have received in the past. To the
press of this and other states we owe
a large portion of our success, and
for their hearty and earnest endorse
ment. their courtesy and their praise,
The MIRROR offers it's most sincere
thanks. And lastly, to those whose
generosity has been the life of the
paper, who have freely and gladly
given their best efforts that it might
thrive,-to our contributors, one and
all, we extend. our sincere apprecia-
ton and deepest heartfelt thanks.
The present purpose Of THE MIR

it has followed in the past, to be a
