GOLD, GLORY, OR GOODNESS?
THREE SCENES FROM LIFE
By HARRY H. GARRETT

By the dying embers of the fire, an old man sits in the rickety chair, count ing his money. His form is bent with age his face is pale and pinched; his features are sharp, and his small pierc- ing eyes are blurred; he sees only one thing--a bag of gold. His clothing Is old and shabby Eagerly he counts the money; a look of terror comes over his face-one piece is missing! A fec ble cry escapes his bloodless lips: 70 where Is it? Where, where? What have I done that such a misfortune should come upon me?' He counts it over again--yes; he has made a mis- take, the money is all there, not a through his hands: look of relief comes over his countenance, and he laughs like a child. Again and again he counts his treasure; it is all there not a penny is missing. He is satisfied and under loose plank in the floor he hides the bag of gold. He returns to the rickety chair by the dying em- bers of the fire and dreams of his hidden treasure.
 Gold! gold gold! gold.

 GLORY-SCENE ?
 Stage setting: The office of suc- cessful financier. The busy ticking oi typewriters. the ringing of the phone bells, the excited voices of stockhold- CTS, all echo to the desk of the pres ident of the great national bank. He is a middle aged man, although his face, through care and worry, gives him the appearance of man in his fifties. He is tall and slender A few gray strands have crept into his black hair, accompanied by deep frowns or his forehead. His expression is colo and reserved suit of black broad. cloth fits him perfectly. He turns from his work to answer the tele. l phone.

 GOODNESS-SCENE 3
 Stage setting: An humble cottage. Around the cracking fire. two small children play. In a comfortable arm chair, the father sits reading aloud. On the other side of the table the mother sits sewing button on the baby's Sunday dress" The children romp and play, their merry laughter drowning the fathers voice. He lays the book on the table and takes the children in his lap. Nothing suits them better than to see "dady's tick tock'' and nothing pleases daddy" more than to please the babies; so they play with the tick tocll" until knock on the door attracts their attention.

He tells the story 8 beggar usually tells A story of hard luck; but the truth of it is not doubted. and when he leaves he has had a good supper and is the possesor of sufficient means to make him comfortable for the night.

report says the building was expected to be ready for occupancy by January l. 1911, but delays were unavoidable, and it was not until the twentieth an niversary of the home that the school was ready.
 When the school was opened AZ girls had made application. As only 24 girls could be accomm odated this number was kept and the very unusual thing happened, the school started with it's full capacity and has had this rec ord ever since.
 NEWS OF THE GIRLS
 This years report of the superinten- dent will show the splendid work of the school during the period that cov- CTS four years The stories of some of the girls will probably show bet ter than anything else the influence of the school on the girl.
 One of these young women is study ing nursing in Kentucky hospital, an- other is a student at Montevallo at the Techical institute, another is happily married and shows her training in her ability to make real home for her self Fifteen girls have been dis missed and sent home to be of service to their parents and guardians. "One girl remained as pupil for two years after being dismissed from the Anti tuberculosis association re.established in health, and is now in Philadelphia hospital, where she is training for nursing such unfortunates as suffer from the disease with which she her self was threatened" says the report.
 "One of the girls who accepted a po- sition with a Pennsylvania family is fitting herself for social service work"
 SIGNS OF APPRECIATION
 Many thoughtful gifts have been sent back to the home from girls who feel a great affection for their alma mater. Last Christmas the pupil now in Phil adelpha, in anticipation of her in tended remembrance, sent the price of 8 popcorn pepper, secretly forwarded, followed by a bag of superior variety of corn raised by herself. Not alone" reads Superintendent Mrs. Jordan's re- port, "has it been by one girl that gratitude has been manifested, for it must be told that out of her first earn ings a second girl of her own will, re- placed six good glasses, which, as a pantry worker, she had carelessly broken. In further interest she added gift, three fine pairing knives, which she knew to be needed"

Stage setting: A dark attic room lighted only by a faint streak of light, wedging it's way through the small broken window pane. With the eX ception of straw mattress, broken box which serves as a table, and a rickety chair, the room is bare. The sunshine does not know this place; the echo of the laughter of the chill dren playing in the streets cannot find a place to slip in, and the Fairy of Happiness Is yet to work her wonders.
