Necessity a Stern Driver,

There is no stimulus to tumultuous action like strong human desire. Ne cessity, too, drives men on relent- lessly; but desire, which amounts to a passion, drives faster aud harder and more intensely. It has been excep- tional stimulus that has produced the marvels of the hour. It is exceptional and self-generated stimulus that men need in this day and hour to keep ul with the demands of the time.

Worry Has a Value,

There must be a way of taking worry rightly, so that it shall do us good and not harm. Worry, rightly taken, should train to quietness, hu- mility. patience, gentleness, sympa- thy. It ought not to eventuate (though it naturally does) in making others suffer because we are uncomfortable, in making us a source of painful worry to others because we are worried our selves.-A. Fl.

MADE EFFECTIVE cARoM SHOT.
Remarkable Feat Of Marksmanship That Is Credited to a Texan
 of Kentucky Decent

Shooting to kill is notoriously a fine art both in Kentucky and Texas. No wonder, then, that the best shot of that sort on record should have been made by a Texan of Kentucky decent We may call him Hank His enemies, however, had other names for htm. H was, in fact, because a particular one of these enemies, commonly known a Form. had been indiscreet in this mat ter of nomenclature that Hank had extra-oiled his six-shooters and gone out to take walk in the cool of the evening.
 Form was warned, and with his six shooters also extra-oiled. entrenched himself behind one of the solid brick pillars of the courthouse porch. It was past dusk and the swinging kerosene lamp in the porch failed to Illuminate the gloom of the village street where Hank was with his bat tery, while 1t made an easy target q a human head poked from behind the pillar, as 1t must be if the owner were to do any effective shooting on his own account. Form wisely stuck be- hind the pillar. Hank maneuveeed in vain. Wherever he stood. the pllar was between him and every bit of Form. At last he gave vent to his disgust in these words. distinctly evas> heard by the listansrs val undae cover across the road:
 "I see I've got to try carom shoe or m never get the coyote" He carefully saleoted his positooA took aim at certain spot on the briak wall behind the pillar. and pulled tho trigger. The bullet vent tue to the mark. ricochetsd. caught Torm ta Ghe side of the haad, sad htlasA ham vAApe he stood.

publicity campaign. The school needs and press took up the cry; and the Legislature of 1911 responded by pass ing series of constructive, progres- sive educational statutes that will cause that General Assembly to live in history. A state Board of Education was created; State Aid to high schools was granted; consolidation of weak schools and transportation of pupils were authorized; the county superin- tendency law was clarified; compulsory school attendance was extended as far as practicable; an act was passed for the Standardization of colleges.
 Results followed quickly, and are continuing to follow at an ever in- creasing ratio-a ratio that will soon give Arkansas the place she deserves high in the galaxy of honor in the sisterhood of states. It can be safely stated that Arkansas is progressing moro rapidly than any other state in the union. but the great campaign that is now to be waged is that for. increas- ed school revenues.
 This school progress has not been at hazard. showing here and there, but 1t has been consistent logical growth, with the definite purpose of building up strong state school sys- tenn and giving Square deal" to the boys and girls in rural communities.
 The course of study for elementary and high schools has been revised. Agriculture has been made required subject, also hygiene, and the teach ing of these subjects has been made personal, practical and definite. The trend of tho entire school system has been, to q marked degree. toward the practical, to make of all the youth. trained useful citizens-health. happt meas and helptulness are displacing the three Rs.
 Outside the few larger cities. the high schools were found to be few, weak and without standard, some were labeled high schools. others academies, colleges or even universities, many were privately maintained. Fewer than five thousand wore attending all these secondary schools. State aid was ap- plied in 19l1-l2, ninety-three schools were aided. last year aid was given nc schools and this year aid is being extended 1ls schools. The high school has become the Peoples College" The attendance has increased three hun dred per cent During the two years of state aid. s.sSa pupils from rural districts attended the state-aid schools, agriculture vas taught to 4.0S0 pupils and those prepay1ng to teach number cd 2,6I5 and there is still greater at tendance for the current year.

COSTLY INDIAN GIFT
Present for New York Priest From a
Grateful Hindoo.

Two sailors called at the Catholic
Seamen's Mission, New York, few
days ago, and gave the Rev. Philip J..
MacGrath, who is in charge, a PACK
age which they said had been en-
trusted to them in Bombay by ma
tive to deliver to him.
In the package was mahogany box
inlaid with ivory containing rosary
of fifty-four pearls, each of the size of
a pea, threaded on gold chain, at the
end of which was a Crucifix of red
coral. The. priest has not yet been
able to translate the letter which ac-
companied the package, but he could
make out the word "Maharaja," and
the signature of Nazima Raschanai, of
Jaipur, India.
Father MacGrath was at loss to
understand why he should be the
recipient of so handsome a gift from
India until he recalled that six months
ago he was able to help stranded
East Indian in his mission. Then he
came to the conclusion that the CRATE
full native had sent him token of his
gratitude in time for Christmas. He is
perhaps relative of the Maharaja.

ter how deep-rooted it may be. Since
each one is free to do right or not,
it follows that those who do what is
right will receive credit for not abus-
ing their free will by choosing
what is wrong. Those who seem to
have an, Unborn tendency to do wrong
will receive a reward for resisting it.
The merit in either case will be pro-
portioned to the effort which one makes
to do right. Those who overcome
greater temptations than others, will
receive a reward proportionate to their
efforts. 8. There is no question
about our possessing free will. The
fact that we commit sin or form bad
habits cannot be adduced as an argu-
ment against it. Failure to do what
is right is an evidence of weakness
on our part, a confession that sin has
made an appeal to us which we can
not resist by presenting itself under
form that seems good to us though
in reality it is not Common sense
teaches us that when we make a
choice we do so freely after weighing
the motives presented to us, and we
know, likewise, that our freedom is
not abridged by that choice.

If now and then there are exception
ally talented children that feel a
vocation for something higher, coun-
try people can usually afford to send
them to some really good college or
seminary. But "a higher education"
cases, worse than useless. Illustra-
tions could be given in abundance.
Albert J. Beveridge, one of our most
widely known public men, says in
his excellent book, "The Young Man
and the World" of such as have no
higher aim: Il do not see what good
a college education will do him-no,
nor any other kind of education. The
quicker such man is compelled to
make his own living without help from
any source, the better for him. Hor-
ace Greeley's famous saying was, "Of
all horned cattle, deliver me from the
college graduate" of course, the col
lege graduate he meant was one with
out any higher aim. Country people
may be glad to be removed from the
temptations of worse than useless
higher education" for their children;
and if they wish to give their excep-
tionally talented children truly use
full higher education, they usually have
the opportunity and means to do so.
All considered, country people have
many reasons for being thankful to
Gods providence for having placed
them in the country. They need not
envy the city people who pay dearly
for their little pleasures or imaginary
advantages.
