HINTS ON LIVING

Get up in the morning right; go to
bed right at night; start with joy
in your heart, hope in the future,
kindness in your purpose.
If it is a dark day, never mind
you will brighten it up. If it is a
bright day, you will add to it's bright
ness by giving a word of cheer, a
kindly greeting and a warm hand
shake.
If you have enemies, love them, or
you'll never lose them. Forget and
forgive.
If all of us would only think how
much of human happiness is made
by ourselves, there would be less of
human misery. If all of us would
NEAR in mind that happiness is from
within and not from without, there
would be well spring of joy in every
heart, and the sun would shine for
ever.

Men owning teams and having men
who are supposed to be human drive
them, should keep open an eye for
cruelty to animals. On two or three oc-
casions we have seen teams pulling
wagons going up the hills around Ray
and the teams would get stuck. On
two occasions we have seen men pick
up rocks as large as eight and ten
inches in diameter and throw them
at the horses. Teamsters should be
instructed to be kind to their animals
and if they can't make the hill, get
some help for them. Where's the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals we heard some talk about
a short time ago? Also, that Purity
Squad?"
