END OF THE BASEBALL SEASON

TO the philosophic observer of daily
life, the close OF the baseball season
offers food for reflection. There has
now come to an end of the year 1914
enc of the leading activities of the
American people. 1t could perhaps
be demonstrated that more people
have seen ball games the past sum
mer than have entered the doors OF
churches or schools.

say it encourages men to waste valu-
able time, and incites to the vice OF
betting. AS to the gambling. that is
rather incidental. For the great ma

Merchants Held Up,:

Every fellow who wants to
make a dime starts out on some
advertisement scheme, which is
no good. The only way to adver-
tise to get results is by placing
your ad. in a new paper. Cur
tain ads, dodgers, fence ads and
program ads are all money vast
ed. People don't go to showslto
read ads or pay any attention to
such ads. It's a waste Of money
Many have some scheme to make
money and hold up the merchant
to put through someidea of their
own upon a paying basis, by
holding up the merchants Do
not be misled. 1t may encourage
such business, and if every mer-
chant and business man wouls
say no this hold-up advertisement
business would stop. Who ever
heard of a legal notice or court
notice being placed in some pro,
gram It's just as foolish to
place any other kind of advertise
ment in this manner. People
buy advertising space for results
and if they don't get them, Their
they are cheated. So if yor
want results, use the press. Il
is the only true and paying way
TO advertise.

Unselfishness. then is the key
note to popularity, as it is the
key to the highest moral worth.
But this unselfishness must be
mingled with good sense, with
tact, with delicacy and refine
ment, in order to serve as an aid
to popularity.
Without these ingredients UNI
selfishness and generosity some
times become obstrusive, Of
ficious, and offensive.
The most Ierfect type Of popu-
lar woman is she who can shine
like the sun when sunshine is
needed; yet who, like that orb,
does not always shine, but retires
behind the clouds and calls atten-
tion to the brilllancy Of the stars
and the moon. cae who can be
entertaining, or amusing. or in
structive, as occasion demands.
but who can always put herself
in the background in order to ex-
hibit the graces and charms Of
others, and who is ever ready to
rejoice in anothers success with
out any belittling clause affixed
to praise.
One who can be tolerant Of the
ideas and opinions. of others,
while holding entirely opposite
ones; and who knows how to hold
fast to her own ideals while I'M
Outstanding how others may fail
to do so.
The popular woman has quick
perceptions, and. however great
her vogue, she is never blinded
by oonceit to such an extent that
she fails to perceive her own
faults or neglects correcting them
one she sees them.
That which she finds disagree
able in others she decides to
avoid doing herself.
And those graees and quail
ties which appeal TO her in
others she cultivates.
To seek popularity for the sake
OF being popular means the
undermining of character.
To seek II through a desire to
be benefit. a pleasure and a
comfort to humanity means the
building Of character.

Hail Gentle Spring!


There many ways Of knowing that spring is here.
The bluehoOded violet hiding turf Of green grass and
glossy leaves win tell you and the violet like perfumes
flower that blossoms Easter in the steppes Russia
win bring you the joys Of life you the first one Of
the spring.
Deep down in the places where the broom grows and the
Of the fences full Of sunshine the rabbit has made
his hutch and there signs Of motherhood tree tops
and every little mother bird busy making her nest for the
expected brood Of birdings.
There whispering things in the woods-vague elusive
things that hint Of fairies and nOmes and the nameless army
Of i've people that haunt the sweet places where the
trees make shadows and the dOgwOod and wild azaea burst
ing with promiseful buds
The pussy willow has brought forth its small gray hoard Of
little downy balls Of blossom and the naked branches Of all the
trees hung with crimson green and brown buds that will
in time open to the sunlight and become strong green leaves
Like fragile scarfs Of lace the swamp willows unfolding
and all along the tiny waterways thousand haberds
of green thrust through the moist pung sod and every
blade is cutting its way to the sunshine.
But the sure sign that spring has the conscious
ness that the wings Of Hope have grown upon your dreams and
there within yourself ndenabe longing get out where

and the vagabond.

The tsctful person knows when

Many sincere individuals think
a brutal expression of the most

when to be still and how to
change a topic of conversation
when some one has trodden on
delicate ground.
The woman who desires to be
