HABIT AS MASTER"
THEME OF ADDRESS
At FRIDAY LECTURE
Continued from Page u

Now there are many desirable
habits, the cultivation of which will
dispel others that are undesirable. In
order to acquire desirable habits one
of the first things you must learn is
to give strict attention to the thing at
hand now Do it now. The effect of
inattention is that you soon have
cultivated this habit to the extent that
it is your master
"Why do we have ten minute
recitation periods in the kindergarten
grades? Simply because we believe
that child Of that age should be able
to give strict attention to the subject
matter at hand for period of ten
minutes. And if kindergarten chill
dren cannot do it they should be
trained until they can. We believe
that students in the grammar grades
should concentrate their attention for
thirty minutes and we have their les
son periods that length. So also, we
believe that high school students
should train themselves to forget the
kind Of dress Mary wore last night or
the date of that next party for at least
forty-five minutes. / have known
persons who could concentrate their
minds on a subject, to the exclusion
of all others, for hours at time That
is what habit will do TO correct in
attention.

FARMERS AS LEADERS

1t is too often the case that the
farmer is looked upon by the city
dweller in a patronizing manner that
is not in keeping with his real posi-
ton in the world. While the city in
dividual is often an original producer
he is far less so than the man who
makes his living by the sweat Of his
brow upon the farm.
1t is an accepted fact that the
source Of all real wealth is the soil.
and it is therefore the tiller of the soil
who is the original producer of this
wealth which makes the world move
and have it's economic being. The
manufacturer makes his product from
other products which have gone
through a certain number of hands
before they reach his plant, which
makes him a multiplier Of wealth in
stead Of producer.
Every time a farmer raises a crop
Of any kind he has produced some
thing that has never heretofore exist
ed and which is therefore an entirely
new factor in the world.
Viewed from this standpoint it is
incontrovertible that the farmer is a
real leader in world affairs. lie really
adds something TO the wealth Of the
world. There can be no question Of
this. In the farmer there resides a
true dignity and worth which the or
binary city dweller can never attain.
The young man thinking of a profess
sion can go far indeed before he finds
better vocation than that of farming.

BERNHARDI ON WAR

There is certainly much food for
thought in the much discussed book
OF the German General +. Won Bern
hardi entitled Germany and the Next
War. A characteristic excerpt from
the chapter entitled the Right to
Make War Is given herewith. 1t is
almost a eulogy of war and is as
follows:
"All petty and personal interests
force their way to the front in a long
period of peace. Selfishness and in
trigue run riot and luxury obliterates
idealism. Money acquires an excess
sive and unjustifiable power and char
acter does not obtain due respect.
WARS are terrible, but necessary
for they save the State from social
petrifaction and stagnation. 1t is
well that the transformers OF the
goods of this world is not only preach
ed but is learnt by experience. War
alone teaches this lesson
'War, in opposition to peace, does
more TO arouse national life and to ex-
pand national power than any other
means known to history. 1t certainly
brings much material and mental dis
tress in it's train but at the same time
il evokes the noblest activities of the
human nature. This is especially so
under present-day conditions when it
can be regarded not merely as the
affair of sovereigns but as the eX-
preston of the united will of a whole
nation.
'All private interests shrink into
insignificance before the grave deci-
sion which a war involves. The COM
mon danger unites all in q common
effort and the man who shrinks from
this duty to the community is de-
servedly spurned. The brutal incid-
ents inseparable from every war van
ish completely before the idealism of
the main result. All the sham re-
putations which a long spell of peace
undoubtedly fosters are unmasked.
Great personalities take their proper
place; strength, truth and honor come
to the front and are put into play"

A SOLDIER AND a GENTLEMAN

A general, an international respect,
touched in the case of his own coun-
try and the troops he once command
ed by an affectionate regard, is the
best of many praises that belong to
the stanch, skilful old soldier whose
span of honor reached from Indian
Mutiny to the critical days Of the fate
of Europe. That he was forgiven for
having been wiser than the mass of
his fellow citizens is another proof of
the weight of his simple and sincere
character. Great captains with their
trumps and drums disturb the silence
for a while" Lord Roberts, the well
beloved, was something more. He
was a good man. He was a gentle
man. Amid the passionate billings
gate Of so many heroes Of the pen
and the purulent angers of world
Of professors, what a grave dignity
graces the words of this dead gentle
man, spoken month and a half ago
TO the overheated or overcredulous,
eager to believe the worst Of their
foes:
MAY / give a word Of caution to
my countrymen against the unsports-
manlike practice of abusing ones
enemies? Let us avoid what Kipling
during the Boer war described as
killing Kruger with your mouth.
Let us rather devote all our energies
to defeating our foemen by the super
Tor fighting of British soldiers in the
open field.

THE BELDING BANNER

Then there is the habit OF self-re-
lance. Have confidence In yourself.
Wilson and Roosevelt would never have
gained the positions that they occupy
i'm this country had il not been for the
large amount OF confidence they had
in themselves. You don't want to ask
help every time you have a little diff
ficulty or get into a tight place. Don't
dodge the issue but do the things that
come TO you. That means the differ
ence between success and failure.
Accuracy is a good habit to cult
vate. Did you ever notice that the
person who is the most accurate in
performing a task is also the swiftest
Every one OF you could add to one
thousand, by ten. without making a
mistake because IL has become auto
matte with you. You could not make
mistake. But suppose you were
asked to add to one hundred by Mines
beginning at fourteen. Then you
would have to give some conscious at
tention to the matter and could not
add so rapidly. Should you practice
adding by mines you would become as
proficient as you now are in adding by
tens.
Next is the I1ldlltI VI dClllS
fully. You have noticed persons who
always walk along the street in a
graceful manner. They have acquired
the habit. 1t is part of them. and
you have a much better opinion of
them than if they walked with the
proverbial 'slinker SLOUGH which has
been relocated to the burying ground
along with patches on the face
again we have the habit of
promptness or obedience that should
be cultivated. We demand the stud
ent's attention during the class period
and his prompt obedience i'm the mat
tiers of dicipline because these things
form the habit of promptness in them.
''The habit of doing things well is
another desirable attribute. Persist
ence will always win. Stick to job
until ii is finished. You all know of
the persistence of a postage stamp.
1t will stick to a job until ii has car
ried letter around the world. Booker
r. Washington tells story OF how
he gained admission to the university
by passing an examination on doing
things thoroughly and well. He was
set to cleaning a room Using the
habit he had attained while working
as porter In an eastern nome ne
cleaned the room so thoroughly that
there could not be found a speck of
dust or dirt from floor to ceiling.
He had the habit. l believe that
many students who are not attaining
the habit of promptness, should be
taken out Of school and given some
hard task to do until they have learn
ed to stick to a job.
"Then lastly there is the habit of
right conduct. Many people who
would gladly make something Of
themselves do not because the habit
Of improper conduct is stronger in
them than self control"
Miss Lillian Harrington sang solo
and responded to an encore. The
Misses Ruth Edwards and Ellen Blair
