Numerous young ladies took pains to express their interest in the work of a community by cheerfully offer ing their services as distributors of tags. The job at it's best is a thank less one but there were no shirkers among the girls who had volunteered to help the Boys club gather in the countless nickels. dimes and pennies which will be added to the exchequer. They, too worked all day in the hot sun, to take advantage of the favor able impression created by the boys. Finally, although it cannot yet be said positively, the general public of New Britain showed their apprecia- ton and willingness to help 'by con- tributing their small coins to these young ladies. It is safe to say that a substantial sum was raised as our citizens are not slow to realize what a help even a nickel may be and are willing to act generously when once convinced.-New Britain Herald.

OTHER VIEW POINTS

The American people are going to stand by President Wilson, but they are not going to be called upon to shoulder arms against a country that is fighting for it's life and President Wilson is not going to demand of Germany more than he will demand of every other country involved in the awful conflict now in progress on the other side of the ocean. President Wilson stands for the prevention of injustice and the maintenance of lib- erty and law-these are higher obli- cations than the prevention of war but war will not result because of in- sistence that these sacred principles shall not be Yiolated.-New Haven Times-LeaGer.

Have you ever thought the person who takes hearty pride in the great ness of his ancestors has really done nothing which would have caused them to have taken pride in him. The great ancestor could have little admi- ration for the persistent claquer who only feels elated when he is blowing his horn for him. The great ancestor doesn't know how to value a proud descendant. It is in ancestral blood of distinction to prefer the ad- miration of the world to the praise and applause of relatives. It is the habit of the ancestor to look forward with hope-of the proud descendant to look back with pride. There is nothing to be said against being we'll born if one adds to the honor of his tribe by his accomplishments; but of itself being well born is simply an incident of life made possible by the achievements of our forebears. It is better to be the creator of good con ditions than to be the proud off spring of them.

A philosopher says: Ivory knocks more men out than overwork." ." We all know that fretfulness eats out the cornerstone of efficiency-that worry really wears out sanity-that it is the first and last evidence of a disordered mind. so that it's final man Hesitation is sure to be found in dis aster, if not in destruction. Then why does many worry? It must be because he has either become distrustful of his own ability, or because of interferences in life which check his ambitions or destroy his hopes. A condition of dis order in the mind-dis-e -ease-is what prevents an orderly accomplishment of purpose. It takes a masterful soul to keep it's own house in order--to keep the machinery of life working smooth ly and the spirit from becoming jaded

They say Satan was the first hypo- crIte, paradlng as saint when he was full of malice toward God. There were no daily papers then and it took @ great while to get Satan into print in his true character. He has known from the beginning that hypocrisy is something on one can succeed at, hence his delight when a mortal is fool enough to pretend to be what he is not. He took the measure of all fools and furnished the garment that best fits them. A lie lived never takes on the beauty and force of truth. A smooth tongue and a smiling face can not keep a, villainous heart hidden for ever. A mans motives bud and blos- som and he cannot keep them secreted after they have matured. A man is safe only when he is true to the pre- cepts of justice.
 What is religion? Some people talk about getting religion as they would getting a prize. How can they get what is simply a Gfe-'a daily practical in- ward life according to the inmutabIe principles of true order" Religion is the bringing of the spirit into it's true relation to Him who breathed into man the spirit of life. God, the scriptures tell us, is a spirit; and we also are told His children must worship Him in spirit and in truth. We abide in God and He abides in us, because His life, the one only life, is everywhere, and all the activity of the elements, and the products of the earth repre- sent His purposes of love to man His daily blessings bestowed upon us. He who lives a religious life needs wear no label or take special pains to speak of 1t, since his daily conduct toward his fellowmen should proclaim it. Religion is spiritual quality, not human pretence or parade.

How Mark Twain Got
Even With Gen. Grant
BY Holland.

Chauncey NJ. Depew regarded Mark
Twain as one Of the cleverest after-din-
ner speakers whom he ever heard. 1t
was the inimitable drollery of Mark
rwain's manner, the queer, hanging
drawl of his utterances and his intense
seriousness of manner that combined
with his humor to produce an effect
unlike that obtained by any other post
prandial speaker.
There was an occasion shortly after
Gen. Grant returned from his tour
around the world when Depew had an
excellent opportunity for measuring the
ability of both Gen. Grant and of Mark
Twain as public speakers, Grant devel-
oped rapidly as public speaker. after
the first Of his addresses, the formal one
he delivered at Warren, Ohio. IN the
Presidential campaign OF 1850. Grant
prepared that Warren speech exactly as
he wrote his personal memories. lie
he'd no other thought than to say what
was in his mind as simply and as clear
~ as possible He was astonished when
he learned that his Warren address had
been accepted by many good judges as
worthy of being placed in the list OF the
classics of platform speaking.
Having gained confidence in himself,
he occasionally spoke as an afterdinncr
speaker ut banQuets. and it was soon
discovered that he had keen sense of
humor.
On the occasion referred to above
both Gen. Grant and Mark Twain were
announced as speakers at a banquet.
Gen. Grant spoke in happy, half humor-
Gus manner and he made Mark Twain
the text of his speech Grants toast
was the greatness of the United States
but he shifted the responsibility of the
toast 10 Mark Twain, saying that every
body knew Mary Twain and knew how
we'll he spoke Therefore he was going
TO ask Mr.. Clemens to point out what
can be said IN favor of our country, with
its hundred millions miles of railroads
and its many evidences of progress be-
cause he knew the humorist, Mark
Twain. could say it better than he could
After two or three speeches had been
delivered. Mark Twain was called upon
, He rose. looked down at the floor. took
the cigar from his lips and stood for a
moment like a craven image. Gen. Grant
turned around so that he might be able
10 look him full in the face; ana the ex.
pression of his features showed that he
ceratly enjoyed the joke he had played
by transferring his speech to Mark
Twain.
"Nsrk began" said Depew. with his
famous drawl. and in that trailing tone
of voice, with falling infections said
