BE AFFABLE

People who are shy are not
natural; and in order to be a
mixer" one must be natural
and easy and direct; he will then
quickly evoke the same quail
ties from the new people he
meets. But if he begin the con-
versation with questioning, he
does not put them at their ease,
but rather increases their re-
serve or shyness. Start mat
ters going with what Sam Weller
would call an observation" and
there are many pegs in the
things around you, and the cir
cumstances of going and COM

mark without mentioning the

TWO VIEWS OF THE KAISER

It is II years since Gilbert K.
Chesterton frightened the world
of books by bringing out varied
Types" One of the portraits
painted by Mr.. Chesterton was
that of the German Emperor.
when he came to the throne
(wrote the essayist) it became
at once apparent that he was
poetical; people assumed in con-
sequence that he was unpracti-
cal; that he would plunge Eu-
rope into war; that he would
try to annex France, that he
would say he was the Emperor
of Russia; that he would stand
on his head in the Reichstag;
that he would become a pirate
on the Spanish Main. And yet
he is one of the best friends of
peace, and he knows what world
he is living in better than a
score of materialists."
Chesterton is still writing
about the Kaiser-but he is
not repeating himself, as some
authors do. Chesterton's blum
der in writing of William II, as
if he were benefcent and in
telligent ruler and fair-to-mid-
ding poet is, of course, hardly
to be laid up against one who
has in his day written so much,
and so gayly. 1t is a risky job,
this being one of the end men of
literature. So often the COM
monplace impression is, after all,
the right one.
Walt Whitman knew better
than Chesterton. twenty-five
years ago he said to Horace
Traubel:
Il am not so sure of Germany
now. There'll be year or SOS
grief, or awe, following their
loss, and then-who can tell
what? | have no faith in the
young Emperor now coming on
in William; he is a proud, mar
row martinet-no more; a man
who knew so little as not to re-
spect a father and mother noble

ONE IN TEN THOUSAND

The average boy of the coun-
try and small town dreams great
dreams of some day going that
magic place called the city, where
opportunity beckons, and life is
continual whirl of achieve
ments and pleasure, to make his
fortune and a great name for
himself. And if the country boy
or the small town boy does in
the course of events sever his
home ties and go to the magical
city, it doesn't take long for him
to be disillusioned. About one
in ten thousand really makes
good, and achieves fame and for
tune. The others hang on for a
time, some afraid to go home
tagged as failures, and others
ashamed to acknowledge to their
friends that they had made a
mistake.
If the boys could but realize
it, there are many more glori-
Gus opportunities for sterling
young manhood in the country
and in the small towns than
there are in the big, gilded cit
les. Life in the country town is
real. There is no sham or fiction
about it. Friendships are not
formed, as in the cities, for pro-
reproducing purposes. The cit
les are full of young men today
who imagine they are wise and

rive in motor cars with servants,
they carry canvas-covered wine
chests. They set up a rendez-
vous on some easily accessible
island with all the comforts and
conveniences of a modern club"
The Minnesota editor looks
upon these visitors both with
sadness and contempt. They rep
resent civilization, and so the
vanishing of that wilderness
which was unmarried by the
trash of picnickers and the gig
gle Of the summer girl. The
thought of the vanishing must
always make a man fearful who
has lived atune with solitude.
The vacationists deserve con-
tempt because of their inexpli-
cable habit of crowding where
room is plentiful, their prefer
ence for Chinese lanters as
against the moon and the stars,
their fondness for wheezy phono-
graphs though the music of the
birds and the insects and the
wind in the trees is far sweeter.
Our friend in Minnesota says
that the visitors are spreading
the fame Of his land as an out
ing spot around the world.

THE LOST WILDERNESS

A Minnesota newspaper ex-
presses plaintive regret over the
speed with which the wilderness
is being pushed back in that
state. Fine roads replace the
portage trails. The hum of the
harvester is heard at the wa
ter's edge Of what, but recent
ly, were remote and scarcely
known lakes. The summer tour
lists are everywhere. 'They ar

HE THREW UP HIS JOB

A college chap got a job as a
farmland during his summer
vacation. Being a hard-work-
ing, Industrious boy, he wanted
to please his employer, so when
he got up the first morning at
$50 and saw that his employer
was already at work he decided
to beat him to it the next morn
ing. The next morning he rose
at 4:30-and his employer was
already working. He took his
place in the fields beside him,
and neither said a word, but he
decided to do better the next
morning.
The next day he arose at 4
o'clock-and found the old man
doing his work as if he had
been there all night. This only
strengthened his determination,
and the next morning after he
arose at 3 o'clock-and there
was the old man. The farmer
looked at him with a twinkle in
his eye, and did not say a word.
That night the college man
did not go to bed, but stayed up
in his room until 2 o'clock, when
he went downstairs-and the
farmer was already up and do
ing his chores. He turned when
the boy came down, looked at
him queerly for a moment, and
then said: where have you
been all morning? | can't have
you fooling away your time like
this"

should be hung up where it will
get thorough ventilation. Cold
weather will be less likely to
hurt it if it has been thorough
ly dried.
No farmer can get too much
seed corn this fall. If he gath
ers more than he cares to use on
his own fields, he will be able to
dispose of his entire surplus at
a good profit in the spring.

This Is The
Time To Pick
Seed Corn

Now is the time to pick seed
corn.
Every farmer who has field
in which corn has reached the
dent stage, or a more advanced
stage, should pick his seed corn
for next year now!
Those who have no corn ma
ture enough to pick for seed
should secure permission to pick
from some neighbours field at a
fixed price per bushel.
Corn, having been picked for
seed, should be stored immedi-
ately, so as to avoid danger of
freezing. In storing, the corn
