sufficient in most severe weather.
An old engineer once said that
much heat was lost in a furnace from
covering the red hot Goals with new
coal He said "allow the fire to burn
until the Goals begin to have a gray
color then fill the furnace"
Many hands at work on the fur
mace prove most disastrous. If the
boys of the family run the furnace
have each do certain parts of the
work; one fill and shake the furnace
and the other clean ashes and keep

'We must look to the young men for

therefore you cannot begin too early
in life to apply yourselves to the
questions and issues confronting us.
1t is your duty to take an active part
in these issues as they arise, whether
religious, political or commercial.
Politics of today should be an in
spiration for conscientious activities
on the part of all honorable and law
abiding citizens, and unless men of
integrity become thoroughly interest
ed in politics, the progress of our
country will be burdened with political
selfishness.
Being interested in politics does
not mean that you should be office
seekers or political bosses, but if the
honest, Industrious, thinking public
took more lively interest in politics,
political graft and corruption would be
a thing Of the past.
