Patrons Meeting.

The invitations issued by the Board
of Education and teachers of the City
school to reception Thursday evening
of last week, met a most generous re-
Spouse and the High School rooms
were filled to Overlooking by patrons
and friends OF the public schools.
The remodeled interior of the build
ing presented a pleasing contrast to
the ugly and inconvenient arrange
ment which did service for so many
years.
The receiving line consisted OF the
members and wives of the Board of
Education, and faculty of the school.
Music was furnished by an orchestra
under the direction OF Miss Sidenius,
and Mrs Shively. Talks were made by
Supt. Shively, Prof. Lee, DIR. Middle
kauff, H. A. Nickles, Willard Kirkman,
and c. A. Hardness.
A social hour was then enjoyed
while refreshments were served.
Those get-together meetings are q
splendid thing in promoting fellowship
and cooperation among patrons and
teachers.
Another meeting viii be held within
a few weeks at which time Parent
Teacher association viii be formed.
The public schools have the largest
enrolment IN their history, excellent
work is being done by the teachers,
and the patrons are showing their ap-
precation by loyal support.
An inadequate building is the chief
obstacle now in the way of progress OF
the public schools.

There is no need of being a crouch,
since not more than one-half of the
world is disgruntled. If you will listen
closely you viii find that most men base
their happiness on riches, but such an
approach to real life is mistake. Hap
piness is mutually and reciprocity. No
real man can afford to be exclusive, and
try to make himself believe he is en-
joying the passing days. There is no
real pleasure that does not have to be
shared, and no joy that is not born of
generosity, kindness and self-sacrifice.
a crouch is lop-sided person. He
wobbles in his ideas and limps in his
judgments.

1t is knowing how to do things and
doing them that is of value to society.
A youth of today must ''know how; -
he must know his business from ''bot-
tom to top if he expects to succeed.
He must remember that old systems
are changing and rules of honesty must
in the future govern his business. He
must keep his eyes open to all that IS
passing. Just standing around saying
q am overworked'' or running around
like a squirrel in wire cage will not
long impress people with his impor-
lance. Let him do something worth
while, and stop kicking up dust and
men viii recognize him.

RIpe Bananas.

Fruits undergo marked changes in
chemical composition as they grow to
their full size and ripen. In some
fruits ripening increases the sugar
content and decreases the acid, where
as in some others, both sugar and acid
content decrease in the ripening pro-
cess.

Boost" is not the most euphonious
word to be found in our vocabulary; but
the late new meaning that has come to
it makes it a real slogan for men who
want to do team work. Those who
york together for q common purpose
are doing team work. They become
friends. If we do not have friends this
life is empty and barren. A man in this
day who claims to be an individualist,
or thinks he is, has no source of strength

boost a common cause and the world
will consider you worth while.

A few weeks ago number Of daring
men engaged in what was known as an
international balloon race. Each had a
big silk bag filled with hydrogen gas,
TO which was attached a basket large
enough to hold two men. The balloons
were let loose and drifted off into space.
They went wherever the wind might
carry them The man who got the
farthest from the starting point won
the race. While it takes some nerve
for a man to fasten himself to a gas
Gag and go drifting away no telling
where, it did not impress me because
the controlling powers were the balloon
and the wind The machine and the
wind were directing the destiny Of the
man. The most important thing to
learn early in life is self-mastery. We
need power to direct our actions. Get
busy and use the machinery of the soul.
All power or self-mastery comes from
action. The man who never asserts
himself for or against anything soon
becomes a mental and moral jelly fish.

Some men think they are not saying,

less true, we find few of these Phoeni-
clans left. But the man who has moth
ing to offer the public but ''scalp-locks
all goary" manlfests his primitive in
stincts. Occasionally we hear of these
Robin Hood methods. You know this
ancient method was hitting man over
the head with club then taking all but

tury men double-crossed their victims
in their brigandage slightly changed the
old method by developing the famous

II was nm exceedingly bright evening.
The big. yellow moon and the numer-
Gus stars made il so; and the Fairies,
in pretty groups. added still more
brightness to the lovely scene.
The sccre was in the midst Of a
forest. under a large. spreading oak.
Tho Fairies were collected under the
tree awaiting the arrival OF their hng
and queen. At last they came.
Queen Buttcrmilk and King Cheer
were sitting in beautiful chariot
made Of the most beautiful butterfly
wings. This little chariot was drawn
by Two bees. who were attired in the
richest colors.
The queen herself was wonderful
Her dress was made from silk cobvebs,
trimmed with daisies.
Her abundant hair hung in ringlets
around her shoulders. and her crown
was made of goldenrod.
The happy Fairies greeted their
rulers With hearty cheer which rang
throughout the woods. Their jester
Luck. ran about making good cheer.
In fact. everything had cheerful as
rect about it except one person. Ihis
was Queen Buttermilk
Never before had her fair face been
troubled hut now il was
MY dear Fairies" she said. IL do
not like to interfere in your happi-
