Look the Riaht Way.

It's all in the way that you look at the
world,
It's all IN the way that you do
things;
With laughter or sorrow your lips may
be Curled.
But it's all in the way that you view
things,
Yes. it's all in the way that you jour-
ney along.
That makes life a plague or pleas

The mind is the fountain Of wailing or
song,
And man is the Judge of the meas

We can make our own sunshine and
make our own mirth,
We can add to our trouble by mop

We can make a grim graveyard of this
glad old earth
By giving up loving and hoping,
For it's all in the way that we look at

Yes, it's all in the way that we view

NOT HIS JOB.


I'm not supposed to do that" said he,
When an extra task he chanced to see;
That's not my job, and it's not my
care,
SO I'll pass it by and leave it there"
And the boss who gave him his weekly
Lost more than his wages on him that
day.
I'm not supposed to do that" he said,
That duty belongs to jim or Fred"
SO a little task that was in his way
That he could have handled without
delay
Was left unfinished; the way was paved
For a heavy loss that he could have
saved.
And time went on and he kept his place
But he never altered his easy pace,
And folks remarked on how we'll he
knew
The line of the tasks he was hired
to do:
For never once was he known to turn
But there in his foolish rut he stayed
And for all he did he was fairly paid,
But he never was worth a dollar more
Than lie got for his toll when the week
was Ger;
For he knew too we'll when his work
was through
And he'd done all he was hired to do.
If you want to grow in this world,
young man,
You must do every day all the work
If you find task, though it's not
your bit
And it should be done, take care of it;
And you'u never conquer or rise if you
DO only the things you're supposed

STATES ADOP
BY CHARLES EDWARD RUSSELL
About the only choice a nation has
these days is to get a big army of
hired men, get big citizen army, or
stand the risk of being smashed up.
The Swiss and the Australians
chose to have the citizen army in the
name of democracy, with the result
that their youth when they arrive
at manhood are athletic, robust, sup
pie, trained to wholesome outdoor eX-
ercises, familiar with their duties in
defense of their country and expert
therein.
We can have in the United States
all the great benefits of the Swiss and
Australian systems if Congress pass
es the bill introduced by. Senator
Chamberlain of Oregon, and known
at Senate Bill 1896.
All able-bOdied male Americans,
except those exempted, under Ger
tain conditions, because of religious
creed, are made by this bill subject
to military training from their
twelfth year to their twenty-fourth.
Then, without further training, they
become members of the citizen army
reserves.
A normal, average American boy
would then go through these expert
ences:
At the age of II he would become
automatically a member Of the citi-
zens' cadet corps, in which he would
continue six years, passing through
three divisions.
From II to IA, in the first division,
he would be trained in calisthenics,
physical development, and military
exercises without arms, for at least
80 hours a year, at his school or in
an organization like the boy scouts.
At IA his second division training
