Look for the Best

Don't look for flaws as You go through
life;
And even when you find them
II is wise and kind to be somewhat blind.
And look for the virtue behind them.
For the cloudiest night has a hint Of the
light
Somewhere in its shadows hiding;
II is better by far to hunt for star
Than the spots on the sun abiding.
The current Of life runs every way
To the bosom of Gods great ocean,
Don't set your force 'gainst the rivers
course
And think to alter its motion.
Don't waste a curse on the universe;
Remember It lived before you:
Don't butt at the stsorm with your puny
form.
But bend and let it fly DER you.
The world will never adjust itself
To suit your whim to the letter;
Some things must go wrong your whole
life long
And the sooner you know ii the better.
IL is folly to fight with the Infinite
And 90 under at last in the wrestle:
The wiser man shapes into Gods plan,
As the water shapes into the vessel.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Sinews of United States

We sometimes look to the noisy places
where men are talking; to the market
places where men are expressing passion
as partisans, instead of attuning our ears
TO the mass of the people who trv daily
to be honorable and to live each day
worthy of the great community to which
they belong.
These men are the sinews OF the ma
ton. They are the men who max the
sentiment that the flag stands for. How
can any man presume to interpret the
meaning of the flag of the United States
who does not listen to their counsel and
feel their presence!
This is Flag day. But it doe not
mean that this is the only day that we
are to honor the flag. 1t only means
that it is the day when we outwardly
show what we recall what we should do
every day in our life.
There should be no one day OF pa
triotism. We celebrate the Fourth of
July simply as the day set aside to
honor the memory of the start OF lib
erty in the United States. But liberty
and humanity date beyond that and are
commemorated by the blood of many
generations OF martyrs.
The chief benefit of Il day liko this
is that on it We turn away from the
recollection of things that ordinarily dis
tract us 1t gives the opportunity to re-
mind ourselves of those things which
have meant so much to us and to the
service of mankind. These days are
OF the kind when mems Judgment is sol
emnized by the presence OF outward sym
bols fsuch recollections. Back Of us
all there marches the great host which
never forget the vision that it saw at
the birth OF the nation. 1t is the host
that always responded to humanity and
liberty's call. And it was consecrated to
every man who does his duty to the
United States.-From President Wilson's
Flag Day Address.

from the correspondents in the var

cotton crop remains at this time IN
the hands OF the farmers. This is a

that the farmer still has 25 per cent
of his wheat, forty per cent OF his
oats and 81 per cent OF his corn.
