Let us hope then, the teachers of

at Lakeland into a mere junketing
trip and seek their own plea ure

with other gatherings of this nature.

Your fears are groundless. The
Lakeland meeting of the State teach.

element of serious minded people
who came here to say and do the
things that would help the cause of
education in Florida. OF course they
came also to see and enjoy the hos.

city in the State, and to that extent
they sought their own pleasure"
and II was right for them to do so.
The junket element is present in all

PATCH UP THE OLD
ONES AND TRY AGAIN

No need to make any new resolu
tions today to lead better life
drop your bad habits and improv,
generally on the record of the veal
just gone. The old batch you hav,
already broken will serve the pur-
pose just as well as new ones, with q
little patching. of the fractured
parts. And don't get discouraged
and LAY down" because you broke
the old ones.
In the final accounting hereafter,
whenever and wherever it may be,
the plea of inadequate natural
equipment to do the work assigned
you will be promptly thrown out of
court. 1t Is killed in the Bible in
the Parable of the Talents, and in
the great lawbook of Nature that
terrible statute on the survival of
the fittest also pronounces that con-
venient plea worthless and invalid.
You don't know whether you are the
fittest until you try, not merely
once, but thousand times, if nee
essary; and, hence, the breaking of
your resolutions is no final decree
against you, but merely as the fail
ure of the mechanic, the inventor or
the artist to achieve success on the
first or any number of trials.
Edison made thousands of expert
ments before he eliminated discor-
dant note from the music of his
photograph, and thousands more
before he found just the right chem
1cal property or combination of
properties necessary to perfect one
OF his marvellous inventions. He was
the master of his own will, as are
you, and if he had weakened in his
purpose, permitted his faith in him
self to fade out and had laid down
on his job" Nature and Revelation
alike would have told him to get ont
and take himself to the Junk heap
do d ldlluTe.
We never know until we try"
and TRY, try again" are homelv
copypook saws which we depreciate
as familiar truisms, but they are of
priceless value of the human race.
Tor they lie at the base of all great
human achievements. A resolution
good in itself and worth making. is
worth keeping, and even though
broken times innumerable through
the weakness of the flesh or the
spirit, it is still worth trying to |
Keep. For some day the glarious ex-
hilaration of freedom at last from a |
rulnous habit that has cursed your
life may come to you like the sun |
light and pure air to a prisoner es-
capped from long slavery in a dun
geon, and you will feel like a real
man in the full enjoyment of your
birthright to be the master of your
self and the captain of your own
soul.

MRS. SARAH LEITNER

Samuel Leitner. a private detective
in New York. shot his wife five times
the other day. She died Immediately.
crap caps had shot her. Later he
gave this story to he coroner:
Il first met my wife eleven years
ago. She had just come out of the
House of Good Shepherd. We went
together for about a year, until I
found that she behaved herself; then
1 married her.
I'VE took rooms together in Ludlow
street. then in Stanton and later in
Madison street. When we went to
Madison street we had two children,
Bessie and Dora. One night 1 came
home. She wasn't there and she didn't
come back all night She stayed away
four nights and four days. Her father
and mother and all searched for her
everywhere. Finally couple of men
told me they had seen her in back of
a jewelry store in our own neighbor-
hood and / went in there and there
she was. She started to run away, but
I stopped and said, Listen, Sarah.
Can't you be good? You've got two
children. Don't spoil their good
names; they're girls She looked in
my face and. To - with you
] said: haven't treated you right?'
oh. don't like married life, she
said. I'm going to sell the furniture
and quit. l don't want to live this
way any more
She sold the furniture, and on the
day she sold it she threw her own
mother out of the fiat so she could get
the things Then she met me on the
street and said: How about support?'
And I said; Why. Sarah, I'll support
YOU. But why won't you be good p
She laughed at me. She said, I
should worry! And said, You ought
to be where you came FROM.
Leitner told more such incidents to
show she had gone on much the same
as previous to her entrance to the
House Of Good Shepherd. Then she
went into his office the other night
and started an argument.
II was sitting in front of my roll
top desk when she said: It's all
through you, I tell you, that I'm so
nervous. What have done to mako
you nervous? 1 asked her, and she
just got mad and threatened me with
a hat pin, then went off in a crazy fit
of hollering.
There was a gun lying there on my
desk. Suddenly she grabbed for it.
She got 1t, and I grabbed 1t away
from her. She fought me and kept
saying things and worked me up and
I finished the job
You mean you fired the five shots
that killed her?" the coroner asked.
Leitner looked at the coroner help
lessly for moment, then said, with
weak GESTURE of his right hand, "I
did"
