Birds, Love of Clean. Water.

There are few animals, if any, who do
not prefer cleanliness TO dirt, and the
same may be said OF birds. Alas how
often do we see an unfortunate bird in a
cage with nothing but dirty water to
drink. The owner, have no doubt,
does not wish 10 be unkind 10 the pet,
but simply thinks that as il has water to
drink that il is enough. We have two
tame big blackjack gullS. who live in
the garden. Not having pond, we
keep a large flat bath full OF water Tor
them. Whenever they have their fish,
they usually take il TO this bath and wash
it before eating They are very fond oil
washing in it, but however much they
wish to, they will not get in unless the
water is quite clean. One morning ]
went TO put fresh water in the old was
scarcely dirty, and one OF the birds
followed me TO the tap, and directly !
put in canful, in il jumped, and never
even got out while | poured the rest OF
the water in, after which il had real
good wash. II evidently wanted TO get
in very badly, but would have nothing to
do with "dirty water"

Cyrus Browns Prayer.

The proper way for man TO pray,
Said Deacon Lemuel Keys,
And the only proper attitude,
Is down upon his knees T.
No. I should say the way 10 pray.
Said Reverend Doctor Wise,
rs standing straight with out-stretched arm
And rapt and upturned eyes
"Oh. no. no. no." said Elder Slow
Such posture is too proud:
man should pray with eyes fast closed
And head contritely bowed.
1T seems TO me his hands should be
Austerely clasped in front,
With thumbs pointing 10 the ground,
Said Reverend Doctor Blunt
Last year fell in Hodgkin' swell
Head-irst." said Cyrus Brown.
With both my heels a-stickn up
Ny head a-p'inting down,
An | made prayer right then and there
Best prayer ever prayed
The prayin'est prayer ever prayed

"Ah, now the new year bright

But ere my hopeful dreams

To find it's aging, too.

No nights of sorrow dark

Thoughts of Interest to Those Who
Follow Teaching ms O Profession,
Erom Lincolnton Times.l
Editor Times:
in g1ancing over your last issue I
notice that F2eno," In the Machpelah
items, seems greatly concerned W.
the probability that the progressive
teachers OF the state were likely 10 ask
the passage of a law requiring train
ing of teachers. It is q lamentable
fact that every other profession ia
protected nor by laws than teaching.
The DOCTOR who In the good old
times only needed 70 read medicine
under some practitioner OF his own
selection until he himself was satisfied
with his. own qualifications has given
away to the man trained for years by
recognized experts, and then examined
rigidly by o board in whose members
the entire state has confidence. before
he is allowed to- practice on you and
me and those we love. The druggist
has been required TO- make the same
progress. The lawyer, before. misrep-
resenting you In the courts must salts
fy the courts that he has been trained
and In qualified to properly represent
you. In every profession known pro-
per training In required except in this
the noblest OF all professions. that Oh

ness! Don't. If you are a teacher,
and r not qualified for the noble
calling you follow get qualified. If
your ambition will not impel the me-
cessary exertion you are not fit to be.
q member. of the teaching force. The
teachers more than any other class
on earth should have as a motto: con-
ward and upward, always something
better" Don't clog the wheels of
progress. Put your shoulder to the
wheel and help it along or get out of
its way, for unless you do the wheel
will move on just the same and you
will be crushed by its force. To the
teachers of Lincoln county I wouJ
say-don't dread this progress, dread
weakens your effort. Put all your
heart and soul and strength into the
noble work you r engaged in and
determine that youWILL improve your
self 10 conform TO the improved stand
