ARE YOU IN TIE BREAD LINE" OR THE
 BANK lINE"?

In our great Northern cities on bitter cold winter nights there may always be found the bread line, "a long line of homeless, jobless, joyless men. patiently waiting in the snow and rain for a bit of bread and soup, doled out to them by charity. In a city of wealth and luxury, these men are without money, clothes, and food; surrounded by plenty, they are beggars.
 Broken and old many of them, without hope or ambition, these unfortunates afford lesson that no young man can afford not to heed. Luck" may have broken badly with many of them. it is true; but who will say how many of them. in the golden days of their youth. wasted their earn ing in riotous living. forgetting to provide for the rainy days" their gloom and sorrow into most of our lives?
 Nor is the bread line confined alone to our great cities. Too many rural communities have their bread lines, too-per. haps not so evident. perhaps not SO much talked of. but there just the same. Who is it that cannot name young farmers. who beginning with good health and strength have. after years of toi found themselves without an acre of land. without a home. close upon the ragged edge of actua wantg Doubtless many of thest men. too. have been unfortunate but who will say there are not thousands upon thousands oi them who forget that it is not what we make but what we say, that counts. that joining th' bank bne" is the surest way on earth Co avoid the bread line Save. young man. save. ana present sacrifice for future hap piness' are principles tha should be burned deeply into thu consciousness of every boy anC young man ir 'Ae South
