fined and good he is, and how much
better he Is than his associates.
This state of mind naturally attracts
criticism.
When any one assumes an Lam
holier- than thou" attitude toward his
fellow men, he Is certain to be a target
for lies.
People resent that attitude more than
any other
Real goodness, real worth, real NOR
ality, is always accompanied by a sort
of gentle humanity; manner which in
vites confidence; a department which
carries with it sympathy and under
standing.
Unless you feel near to your fellow
men; unless you are conscious of their
kinship, no matter now erring they
may be; unless your thought Is one
of pity rather than condemnation for
their failure to live as good a life as
you are living. then you are not really
so good. after all-not really so much
better than they, with all their sins.
For you have the sin of self-conceit,
of self-Satisfaction, of uncharitableness,
of lack of human sympathy. And you
forget that you have not their In

The human being who puts on airs
for any reason Is a pitiable creature.
The very best of mortals is still full

The very brightest is dull or weak

professions or trades are pigmies, put
beside men and women who have lived
In other eras.
There Is nothing which we can with
reason pride ourselves upon having
done or been to the extent of holding
our heads above our fellows. What
ever our achievements, we need to feel
humility in the presence of THE
GREAT ALL-MIGHTY CREATOR OF
THE UNIVERSE
We need to walk softly and speak
kindly, and be patient and charitable
and sympathetic and helpful; and we
need to talk much of the good qualities
of others and little of our own.
This young man, quite possibly,
brought all his troubles on himself
by trying to impress upon his associ-
ates how very much more moral and
refined and delicate he is than they.
He needs to develop some robust
qualities.
He needs to turn his thoughts out
toward his fellows, and not in upon
his own good self so continually.
We Should Do Good to Those We Know
Despise Us
Let him do good to those who de-
spitefully use him, and speak pityingly
of those who lie about him, even il
he keeps away from their society.
And let him forget all his troubles
which are mainly imaginary.
No lasting or serious harm can come
to ay one who fills his mind with good
thoughts, his mouth with good words
and his life with good actions.

LIBRARY VISITED BY
SCHOOL DIRECTORS
Special Committee Confers With
Trustees on Appropriation
Increase

Harrisburg's new public library was
officially visited this afternoon by the
city school board in accordance with
an invitation extended the directors
last evening.
Following the inspection of the
splendid structure the special COM
mittee, appointed few weeks ago to
confer with the library trustees rela-
tive to increasing the annual school
appropriation from $4,000 to $4,000
for maintenance, held brief meeting
The committee consists of William A.
Boil, Adam Houtz and the Rev. Will
liam N. Yates.
The directors last evening were told
by DR.. Charles B. Eager principal of
Technical high school that a note sys-
tenn will likely be inaugurated at the
trades school beginning next Fall.
The idea was one of several picked up
by DR.. Eager during his recent trip
south to attend the Richmond conven-
ton of school superintendents. DR..
Fager's plan is to provide note books
for the Technical students whose
courses include shop work. The boys
will take notes from time to time so
that at the end of the term each will
have complete note book knowledge
in addition to what he has learned in
the shops.
| Award Contracts
Following another lively discussion
the board awarded the contract for
furnishing 1900 book covers for the
schools to the Holden Patent Book
Cover Company at it's bid of $1,110.50.

sidered the superior however, in view

Girls always like to have MILDLY blouses
in generous numbers. There is nothing
else quite so satisfactory for tennis, golf
and all outdoor sports and they are very
generally worn for school. college and
every day occasions. This one is made
with sleeves that give Japanese effect
and with a separate peplum laced at
the sides. When the lacings at the front
are loosened, the blouse can be drawn
on over the head and the closing requires
only the drawing up of the ribbon.
Blouses of this kind are made with skirts
to match and are also made from white
and colored materials to be worn over
separate skirts. Linen and galatea are
especially we'll liked and both the natural
color and white make smart and practical
blouses with trimming of red or blue.
