The Folly Of Envy.

Perhaps you are envying that man
with better position than you have.
Did you ever think it's likely he's
willing to trade with you?
When you are having a good time
with your family he may be grinding
away at some work which he must
get through right away. He may go
home when you do, but he may have
to work many hours into the night to
figure out his problems for the next
day in order to keep his job.
If one can have no recreation or en-
joyment out of life what is there to
it? Would you be willing to work as
he does?
Of course you don't know his incen-
tive, but few would apply themselves
as he does, and, incidentally, few will
climb to the heights he may before
he let's up.
Do not be so mean that you envy
a man the job he has worked SO hard
to get and to keep.
If you are not willing to concen-
trate and keep your nose to the grind
stone, as he does, don't SWIVEL if you
do not catch up.

White Man And Indian.

Sometime ago the announcement
was made that small number of
white men, two or three, had entered
the Main woods "in state Of nature"
which means a state of absolute
nudity, with the avowed purpose of
seeking to maintain themselves with
their bare hands and make living.
This is not the first time within
recent years that such thing has
been undertaken. An artist about
three years ago went through the
same kind of a performance and came
out alive and fairly well dressed in
bark clothes he had woven, improved
in weight, and hatful of experience.
He was gone several weeks, had
ample to eat and wear, never went
hungry, and wrote himself up in great
style.
These tales of the white mans in
genuity, however, do not measure up
to the tale Of one Indias who became
separated from his associates up in
the Hudson Bay country last fall.
He had no food and no weapon, ex-
cept pocket knife, and no protec-
ton against the weather except a
ragged suit of clothes. Yet he came
out of the wilderness last spring sleek
and happy and in possession of sew
eral hundred dollars worth of furs.
The Indian built a shelter to guard
against rain and snow, started fire
with his knife and a pice of flint, and
hooked fish with a thorn and line
twisted from bark thongs. He fash
Toned traps and set out line of them.
He made snowshoes, fur clothing,
moccasins, and the big cap he wore
he spoke of as stove.
Now this Indian had built himself
canoe, also, and rode out of his winter
prison on the first spring freshet
with his small store of wealth. He
made no pretense of his performance,
and said fishing through the ice in
winter was fine sport. He also said
he might duplicate his feat the COM
ing fall, as he has dec;iiiuoni
an easy and happ. bake a
living. That is a fine way of being
natural, and no white men need try
the game again as a mere feat. The
Indian took it as a mere matter of
fact. Which proves that happiness
may be state Of mind.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1916
Charles Thomas Logan, Jr.

The death of Charles Thomas
Logan, jr., the young publisher and
owner Of the "Palisadian," has cast
gloom over the entire Hilltop Sec
ton, and particularly in his home
town Of Palisade, where he has lived
since he was less than fourteen years
old, over eleven and half years, and
where the peculiar admirableness Of
his character had developed an I'M
usual affection and respect from every
one who knew him. A visitation from
the dread infantile paralysis laid him
low in three days illness. The deadly
suddenness of his death shocked
everybody, and the whole section
could scarcely believe the sad news
that came so unexpectedly last Sun
day. He left an aching void not only
in the hearts of his own doting family
and relatives, but hundreds of other
friends scattered over the land.
The life of this young man is its
own example. He lived righteous
life, in that he was clean, truthful,
fair. He had higher ideals than men
lEera-.sll1- have He would not bear
raise witness, he would not tell an
untruth; he would not wrangle, ex-
cept in behalf of truth and fair play,
and he was the exponent of kind
ness in all of it's most generous and
tender impulses. His love for nature
was absolute, and he communed with
her at all times, wanting all of those
with whom he went to have the same
appreciation. His companions were
loyal because he inspired them by his
lofty purposes. They loved to come
at his call, and go where he led. But
his encouraging and winning smile is
now lost to the world. All that is left
is a memory which is sweet and
tender. If all boys would cultivate
this poor boys spirit, the world would
be made better. He battered down
evil with his weapon Of squareness,
pushing aside with his strong will all
that did not make the appeal in be-
half of simple justice. What finer
sermon than the life of this tender,
loyal youth, sacrificing, honorable,
clean? His work is finished, yet the
spirit of it lives!

Some Unpublished Verse.
By the late Charles Thomas Logan, u.

The young editor never professed
being anything. He was born news
paper man, having all of the charact-
eristics and requirements. But he
was modest to timidity, hence much
meritorious verse he wrote never saw
the light, and was, no doubt, never
intended for publication. His poem
on Mother" was handed to her as
the sincere effort of an evening. He
loved to write when others were
asleep, and his best work was done
after midnight. His poem on Ber-
muda written for "The Spectator" at
Columbia, was finished very late at
night, too. -.--

The Great Strike.

If the great strike against the
American railroads should be called,
as now seems a question no one may
at this time answer, it will be the
most hazardous undertaking yet put
forth by organized labor. There is
no doubt but that the public patience
is about exhausted over the conten-
ton. The complexities Of the situa-
ton have grown more and more in
tricate, until now no one knows how
to unite the tangle.
That President Wilson's efforts
have so far been unsuccessful in solv-
ing the problem, is through no fault
of his. 1t has now finally resolved
itself down to question of the eight
hour day and allowing arbitration to
settle this and other strikes. The
men say no to this thought, the rail
ways want it.
If the strike that has been ordered
for next Monday is pulled off, there
will be some people who will have to
stand from under. The whole thing
is blow at Democracy, and the pub
lie mind is not Of a trend to stand
for that. If Mr.. Wilson, aided by a
man like Samuel Gompers cannot
avert the strike, it were better to let

Couldn't Stand Criticism.

The Michigan judge who recently
committed suicide because he was un-
able to stand criticism was, no doubt,
conscientious in all Of his actions and
deliverances from the bench. The
strange thing is that a man so sense
alive to criticism should ever have
been made judge.
The world is made up of critics.
Mankind in general criticises every
thing and everybody. Nobody is i'm
mume from criticism. 1t makes little
difference whether a man be alive
Of dead, his character is always open
for criticism.
This Michigan judge was in posi-
ton where the very nature of his
work made him a. target, as all judges
are targets one way or another:
1t may be said. though,
criticism is the greatest known ageh(
for saddening lives. Men and women
die broken-hearted for the careless
things spoken against them. 1t is
an every day occurrence. Aching
hearts are hourly made from I'M
warranted talk. To have ones mo-
tives discredited that are really
above criticism is calling, and to the
sensitive mind it means much. 1t is
descouraging and disheartening. II
takes the sap out of honest endeavor.
The thing to do in all cases OF
criticism is to forget it. False
criticism never triumphs, and ones
greatest victory in life is doing ones
simple duty and letting criticism take
care of itself.
Newspapers are sometimes found
fault with for criticisms. But the
truth is they are not guilty of adverse
criticism one half as much as that
which takes place in ordinary con-
versation. A club room is worse than
any newspaper ever could be.
Generally those who criticise the
newspapers are themselves the worst
gossip mongers of the neighborhood.
A good thing always is to mind
ones business. That is the greatest
of all known solvents.

Life Rounded With a Sleep

The saddening blow which descend
ed upon this little community last
week was So sudden and so terrible
in its force that we can scarcely real
ize it is true-and more and more as
time passes-will our loss be felt.
But the memory of Charles Logan
will long be cherished, for he was a
young man of such sterling qualities
that he was beloved of all who knew
him. eve are such stuff as dreams
are made on; and our little life is
rounded with a Sleep"

Slang With Whiskers.

Slang is to be excused only when
there isn't anything else sufficiently
expressive to fit the verbal emerg-
ency.
Generally slang is an accepted Gre
alton of word with punch, and in
most cases it has an uncultured
source. But lack of culture does
not mean a lack of brains.
The principle objection to slang is
that it's use does not indicate refine
ment. Some stylists eliminate it al
together, yet Victor Hugo, rarely
violating correct usage, was slang
guilty upon occasion.
President Wilson whose literary
style has been voted as among the
most refined types of the age, has
condescended to use slang sin a
pinch"
But the calm, judicial dignity of
Charles E. Hughes was expected to
lift him above the commonplace. The
picturesque phraseology of Colonel
Roosevelt is well-known. He never
hesitated to hit it up, as witness his
famous "My hat is in the ring"
But Mr.. Hughes, the bewhiskered
and calm candidate, has been content
not only to use slang as he finds it,
but to interpolate into his speeches
a touch of the uncommon kind of
slang.
In Chicago the other day he de-
clared that when it comes to relying
on Democrats to protect American in
dustries they hadn't got it in their
BONES" Mildly slangy for a man
who parts his whiskers in the middle.
In the same speech Mr.. Hughes al
luded to the pork barrel Congress
sional slangD as filled with "Kis--me-
and-I'll-kiss-you" appropriation.
But listen further. The climax is
to come. With all of the Patrick
Henry daring, if not the precision of
a Jefferson, Mr.. Hughes later pro-
ceeded to spout these emphatic words:
II don't want any hot air in mine"
Yet there are those who say we
are advancing in culture. It depends
largely upon the point Of view.
