Our neighbors' idea Of us would be very illuminating and frequently even startling, if We could know it. An ac- quaintance of mine, just returned from visit to South America, found his pride taking a tumble as he discovered that most of the dwellers in Buenos Aires had at least heard of 8 village somewhere called New York. His ex- perience was not unlike that of the members of the Boston Chamber of Commerce during their recent tour, who found in the leading paper of Peru, reference to themselves as "the Yanquis from the North, a novel and delightful set of barbarians."
 It is not unhealthful occasionally to learn of our appearance from other conceits would thus vanish. We should do some things that we do not now and leave undone some of the things that we do. AZ Burns says:

 An over sensitive disposition Is bad. but it is equally bad to be wrapped in thick mantle of self -complacency that no dart Of criticism can pierce. The boor learns from no one and that is why he remains a boor. The wise
 man picks up suggestions from every one and reselutely seeks to bring his life into syrnetry and effectiveness It is essential to remember, moreover that we are not only under the eyes of our fellow men but constantly under those of God. Our attainrnents both of service and of character arc viewed from the summit of an infinite perfee- ton. Seif-satisfantian Is impossible to one who has caught any vision of ssi- preme ideals and of the. iliimitable pos abilities of the human spirit.

Board Of Protectors.

At the last nights meeting of the
Board of Protectors communication
was received from a prominent
citizen of a nearby township asking
local aid in forming a Board of
Protectors, and making charges
against a hotel within the townships
precincts that made the Board sit
up and take notice"
Specifying times, places and
names, he charged this particular
hotel with being harboring place
for young men and women and
that certain drinking men, mention
them by name, were taken into the
hotel, gotten drunk and kept hidden
for days, so long as their money
lasted.
The local board was powerless to
consider the charges in anv wav
but the secretary was instructed to
advise the interested people as to
the mode of proceeding to form .
Board IN their township, together
with the assurance that lambert
vile would be glad to EXCHANGE
jag lists with them.

Your Truly
From
the Ladys of
This City

AS the committee in charge of
the Fleet Wing Carnival are able to
about balance their accounts, the
unprecedented business done at this
years jubilee are apparent. The
net profits will probably exceed
$4,000, paying off all indebtedness
and leaving a neat surplus in the
treasury. This is about treble last
years profits, and far in excess of
any previous Carnivals earnings.
