Sunday morning, Father Murphy officiat-
ing.
The baseball season will open next month
and the &. c. team will play the first game
in our park with the M. S. P's. They bet
ter look out if they want to keep up their
reputation.
The Orchestra again visited the Hospital
Friday afternoon and surprized the inmates
with some lively music which was apprecla
ted.
We have seen blackbrd in front of the
Hospital last Sunday afternoon. Now if
this is sign of good weather, then hurrah,
spring is very nigh.
Several carloads of coke were received in
the back yard last Friday and unloaded un-
der the foundry for use in said department.
The twine-shipping season has begun and
from now on the huskies in the warehouses
will be kept busy.
Although the ground is white yet in
many places it will soon be green all over
So cheer up, where there hope, you know.
If money talks why is it that the boys
who have the most money, talk the least?
''The most ambitious man very seldom
has time to take vacation and very seldom
makes success in small undertakings.
If the ma jority of men would have as
much ability as ambition their success
would be assured, but, alas, it is in most
cases just the reverse.
An exchange says there are over fifty
thousand aviators in the world and growing
in numbers every day. Now, if some wise
speculator would build few castles in the
air, he sure would create prosperous bust
ness.
'Don't worry may be good advice, but
l am very sure the man who doesn't worry
doesn't amount to much.
So many men are trying their very best
to get somewhere and when they do, they
do absolutely nothing.
There is nothing which satisfies man
more in place of this kind than good
book. Read good book very slowly and
you will get all the benefit out of it. There
are plenty of good books in our library you
can have if you desire to read them. Good
books have changed many mans whole
career and trashy books have spoiled many
boy or girl who are now III place of
degradation thru the influence of trashy
reading.
There is nothing under heaven so easy to
find and nothing so hard to lose as trouble.
So be a wise guy and avoid trouble at all
times.
We have listened to some sermons that
were really long, ranging well up into the

that only seemed long because of their med
iocrity, but for length-nothing was said OF

Prix to the author of this sermon noted in
the Holloway (Minn.) Herald, under date
