Bob Govan thinks he is something
of shot with either rifle or shotgun

friends believe he should limit him
self to the latter weapon II he hopes
to hit anything smaller than the side
of a barn He was Dragging about
his craftsmanship in the lobby of the
Mizpah when Jim Robertson and
Zeb Kendall happened along. They
iollied Bob into the conviction that
he was too good thing to remain
outside the ranks Of the Tonopah Gun
club and told him he should go at
once to the shooting gallery and
qualify as a marksman. If he made
as good a score as he Thought he
could they said they would propose
his name for membership and then
give him a chance at the blue rocks,
Bob took the advice very seriously
and the trio adjourned to the gallery,
where the fun began Bob was given
first place in the shooting and made
score of 1S out of a possible so.
Then Jim and Zeb began shooting
and with the aid of the scorer, ran
up credits of 80 bullseyes. Then
they shot off and the score showed
the astounding record of 500 bulls
eyes. About this time Charlie Wit

hope he had OF breaking even on the

Influence spread and the arguments
against the selection of town lots
were soon directed against the mine
prospectors. Three town site com

was that the whole section was filled
with disgust and all but few pros
pectors left for other fields.

For one year, for several hours

tinguish between colors. He did
this by placing several hundred
tin cans painted different colors
in the yard with the dogs and by
placing their food In cans of one
color and by senGing an electric
shock to the dogs II they would
touch any can but the right one.
BY methods such as these, end

avoid all pans but the right one.
which they would discriminate
eventually from the hundreds OF
others OF all shades. colors and
tints. They could at last distin-
guish between seven shades of
red and seven of green, and thus
in many ways exhibited more
mentality than any unframed dog.
In the light which these expe-
riments and demonstrations have
cast upon the paths of life. each
one Of us ought to see an as
cending road lying before us, to-
ward unattained heights.

God created man in His own
image.
He meant man to develop the
Divine qualities and the Divine
powers.
He meant man to have and en-
joy every benefit, delight and
pleasure which this wonderful
world offers; he meant man to
form a partnership with Nature
and beautify the earth, and to
make this life the ante-room to,
larger worlds and fuller lives be-
yond by realizing his eternal part
nership with his Creator. In truth,
God meant man to be superhu-
\ man; a human demonstration OF
Divine possibilities.
There have been many great
men and women on earth, but no
man and no woman who have
been as great and as perfectly
rounded as they might be. That
complete development remains to
be done by the new humanity.
You who read these words
however great and successful and
good you may be, are not as
great, as successful, or good as
you can be.

n Through heavy scented forests roams,
Cold stones to charm content she flows
Midst somber, leafy shadows.
Their joyous thanks the bluebells nod,
New life she yields their mother Sod,
Above entwine the kind oaks tall,
Till dusks dark nantes fall.
Beyond, roaring river churns,
And pond'rous wheel Of labor turns,
All prideful of her deeds of skill
She scorns the humble rlll.
The dawning breaks with shouts Of man
In conquest DER sweet Pipes O. Pan,
The brook flows on with chuckling glee.
Content brook to be.
And each performs a needful task,
Nor questions of its business ask.
So each small bolt in life's fine scheme
Completes the huge machine.
