MAN LOST IN WORK
is AT HIS BEST

A man Is at his best in those periods
In which self-interest is lost to him.
The work In which a man can lose
the sense of self for the most hours
each day-that is his especial task.
When the workman gives forth the
best that is in him, not feeling his
body, above all its passions and pretty
devices for ruling him, concentrated
upon the task, pure instrument of
his task and open to all inspiration
regarding it-that man is safe and
superb. There is something holy in
the crafts and arts. II is not an ac-
cident that painting lives three hun
dred years. We are not permitted to
forget the great potters, the great
metalists, the rug and tapestry
makers. They put themselves into
their tasks, and we are very long in
coming to the end of their fineness.
They produced. They made their
dreams come true in matter, and that
is exactly what our immortal selves
are given flesh to perform. Each
workman finds in his own way the
secret of the force he represents. He
is an illuminated soul in this discov-
cry. 1t comes only to a man when
he is giving forth, when he is in lote,
having lost the love of self. Giving
forth purely the best of self, as the
great workmen do, man is on the
highway to the divine vocation which

To President Wilson the future is
big with promise and he sees the
dawn OF an unprecedented business
era. Perhaps he has kind OF second
sight which enables him TO look right
square through the wreck and ruin
OF some OF the biggest business fail
ures this country ever knew. This is
not intended as jab at President
Wilson and the Democratic admins
tration, as The Eagle has been &C.
cused OF making. They are Just plain
facts as big as a mountain and there
Is no use trying TO hide them. The
country is passing through a season
OF almost unprecedented business de-
preston. What the cause therefor
The Eagle will not undertake 10 say.
II may be on account OF the feeling
OF uncertainty which prevails because
OF the change In administration and
policies in passing from Republican,
ism TO Democracy. II is but natural
there should be this feeling Of nervous
uncertainty because OF the great
change being made. and that II will
pass away when the good results OF
Democratic policies begin TO be seen
and felt. President Wilson from his
exalted position may be enabled to
see the changed conditions and return
to business prosperity earlier than
the rest OF US. Let US hope he Is right.

The first canoeing regatta to be held
in this part Of the country will be
staged On the Red river near the foot
bridge above the dan next Saturday
at $3.50 p. m, and an elaborate pro-
gram has been arranged for.
Although one of the most enjoyable
sports, canoeing is looked uI,on as es-
pecially hazardous by many persons,
and those in charge of the meet ex-
pect to present demonstrations to
greatly dispel this illusion.
Interest in canoeing is rapidly de-
~veloping in Fargo, and the building of
the new Town and Country club prob
ably will make that a new goal for
