The Optonist

NV heart goes out to the lonely more than to
any other class of sufferers
Yes, the one lonely suffer.
They suffer those terrible mufled pangs which,
like covered fires, burn without much smoke or
actual pain.
For the most part they suffer in silence.
If you have headache rheumatism or the
grip YOU can-and usually do-mention the fact
to someone you know. And quickly that someone
will say Il am so sorry" and perhaps add to this
word of sympathy little advice as to what to do
or take to feel better.
But if you are lonely, there so few-some-
times none to whom you may mention your state
of heart-lonlness is state of heart
Were you to pass along this news as you do
that of the headache or cold the average listener
would laugh at you-unless the words fell on the
ears of one who himself had felt these pangs!
A little experience teaches you it is better not
to saw anything about your lonliness. For the one
listener who will understand there nine who
cannot-though some day each of these nine may
wonder how he could let you pass with only laugh
or a surface word which showed base metal through
its cheap coating of affected interest
If the average man and woman knew how it is
to be lonely like this, there would be less oniness
For everyone would be more degent in the fine
business of companionability.
The ability to be companion!
Nothing is much finer than this. Nothing can
do more to make lives worth living.
Be little freer with your good cheer.
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1915-06-10
A Matter OF Truth:

Prison journalism is subjected to many restric-
lions not generally taken into consideration by the
outside public. 1t is only the more discerning
who are able to read between the lines. It does
not follow, however, because not always
permitted to attack what we believe to be existing
evils that we are required to support any to
which we do not subscribe. Any time we COM
mend an individual or support an act or policy of
the administration, it is not through compulsion or
sycophancy, but because we sincerely believe the
praise to be merted. Our silence, however, does
not necessarily mean assent.-OUR VIEWPOINT.
You have said something, brother to which
we heartily agree.

The M. S. P. Baseball Team

The M S. P baseball team has won two out
of three games played with outside teams. Con-
sidering the time they have had for practice and
teamwork in general, they have done remarkably
we'll and deserve the hearty support of everyone
herein. Everything, as we understand it, will be
done for the team in order that they may carry off
the 1915 pennant. The management informed us
that we would have baseball this summer, and that
the team would have all the support possible
That such has been the case, no one can dispute.
The promoters have been on the job at all times
and have worked with the ''boys" necessarily to
get them in first class condition, and as one can
only Judge from the results obtained, we are con-
WINGED that the hearty support given the prison
team thus far has not been in vain. The NJ S. z.
team compares very favorably with large number
of amateur teams in the state That there is more
truth than poetry in this statement is evidenced by
the many baseball enthusiasts from the city of
Saltwater who were present last Saturday to see
the game.
The last game between the prison team and the
South Saltwater boys, was fast, interesting and
exciting game from beginning to end, the home
team winning by one score. The Saltwater boys
are good losers. jolly sort of fellows, and they
took defeat with the same enthusiasm that our boys
beamed with delight over announcer VlcCOTy
The prison team is putting up the genuine ar
ticle of baseball. No one has any logical reason
for criticism, individually or collectively. Each
PLAYER plays his position satisfactorily and no fair
minded person can automatically say otherwise.
To the team we would say, play as you have
the last three games with outside teams and the
1915 Prison Pennant will certainly be yours The
fact of your recent victories has made you popular,
and not few are requesting games, if we under
stand it arghtly. And next Saturday, weather
permitting the strongest Saltwater team, the Sim
onets, will play with you. You must remember
that the Simonets cleanup the strongest amateur
teams in the state, and they play ball from the time
the game begins until the game is over. You will
be two evenly matched teams on the local diamond
next Saturday, and you want to get right into the
game from the start. Here is the best luck to you
and the fans want to root for all they worth
The mirror. (Stillwater, Minn.) 1894-1925, 1915-06-10

Be little more generous with your kind words.
Be q little more patient with what may seem
the peculiarities of those around you.
Show more interest in the heart-fare of your
felow-workers.
Make it part of your everyday duty to help
lessen the lonliness of some life, and in time,
with concerted action of this sort, may be able
to brighten up good many corners that now are
dark
Nothing is more to our profit in the long run.
And the long run is the run that counts. -Leiph
Mitchell Hodges.

The fact of paper going into decent and
respectable homes, does not permit of our def
ming the ingredients of which knocker con-
temptible backbiter is made; but if we were to
choose between the most poisonous reptile and the
"knocker', would unhesitatingly. choose the
former, because of its having the most noble quail
tiles of character and broadcast intellectual quali-
cations of the two. The knocker or ''backbiter'
will try to stab you when you are in the dark
and cannot defend yourself; but the snake will
forewarn you of it's poisonous intent" Hence.

A Helpful Suggestion

Whether or not one who chooses unparli-
mentary Words instead of Biblical quotations to
express to what degree his dignity has been
injured can be rightly classed as a degenerate, is
a question which gives much space for criticism.
One of our Rural Weekly editors has intimated
as much--or little-in speaking about the pranks
of two children" Degeneracy, we think, is the
lowest depth of ones degradation, and swearing
Unabridged" we find helpful when our intellec-
tual capacity needs assistance.

Herbert Kaufman Says:
Most competent men are streaked with narrow
mindedness
There are professions and businesses which
necesstate concentrated attention in restricted and
specialized felds-which do not call for breadth so
much as depth of view
Such persons are like miners and we'll diggers
they lose themselves in the shafts they sink and
after while see nothing beyond their close en-
vironments.
But the very intensive quality of mind which
has rendered them so capable in the management
of their own affairs generally units them for the
are not experienced.
So don't be thwarted by your enthusiasm and
optimism by the Encouragement of successful ig-
noramuses The selfassurance that comes with
prosperity invarby brings with tia degree of con-
ceit and arrogance
None is so intolerant of undemonstrated ability
as those who have recorded their own.
Habituated to unquestloned decision in their
own organizations, they are prone to determine
arbitrarily the means and methods of procedure
for everybody.
A certain degree of egotism being essential to
success the last man in the world who is likely to
acknowledge that he is not qualified to form
sound opinion on any matter is the who no
longer has to fight for the recognition of his views,
and mistakes the licksplttling and fattery of self
seekers and subordinates for an extraordinary gift
of Judgement
Therefore, discount the ridicule and superfc-
ial estimates with which the average big man" is
liable to weigh an innovation.
The father removed he is from his own strug-
giles, the more intolerant and conservative grows
his attitude toward new strikes
Commodore Vanderbilt laughed George Wes-
tinghouse and his air brake away from his door
and considered inventor and invention ridiculous.
And George Westinghouse in turn and in
time refused an invitation to attend dinner to
group of aviation pioneers because of his
up with lot of flying machine fools.
wouldn't be room for originality -thered be no
promise for thinkers nor fighting chance for the
next crop of leaders if the world weren't filled with
such reactionaries and bourbons.
Believe in yourself and follow your hunch-
that's how the very fellows who are now eering at
you got on.
Victory changed their makeup. Napoleon
the royalist eventually imposed upon France the
very abuses of power and privilege for the cradle
alton of which Bonaparte the republican risked
his life.
We all look at outsiders differently when
we're inside"
Every man who fought his way to the throne
lost the outlook and convictions that placed him
there after he had gained supremacy.
