WILL YOU BE MISSED?

Some of these days you, who are
reading this article, are going to die
and pass on to your reward-whatev-
er that reward may be.
But will you leave a void behind?
Will you be missed?
The Creator has ordained that man
must carve out his own career in the
world, and when he journeys to the
great unknown he leaves behind him
a record founded upon his own acts.
You may leave behind you a wife, or
children, or other dependents. AS you
deal by them in life, so will their
grief be gagged and tempered at your
death.
Will they miss you?
In this town you have friends, and
business associates, and perhaps many
acquaintance. They know you as
you are, as you have been for these
many years. They have judged you
living and they will judge you dead.
Will they miss you?
In the banks, and the stores, and
the offices, and out upon the farms are
people who have known YOU in the
past and who know you today. AS
you have been, SO are you known to
them now.
Will they miss you?
In the house of darkened windows,
where sweet toned music soothes the
tired brain and the minister tells of
the ways of a better life, are many
people who know you for your acts
and your deeds, for that which you

THINGS YOU DON'T KNOW.

We of today often admire the
knowledge displayed by our friends
and our neighbors, and occasionally
we may entertain a slight conception
of that which we ourselves possess.
But we are not prone to speak of or
to admit of those things that we don't
know.
For instance
You don't know when the war will
end.
You don't know which side will be
the victors.
You don't know what conditions will
prevail in Europe after it is ended.
You may surmise, but you don't know.
You don't know what effect it will
have IN this country when Europe
gets down to business again.
You don't know whether the end Of
this war will mark the beginning of a
world peace, or whether it is but the
forerunner of a greater and more de-
vastating conflict which will be wag-
ed between the old world and the new
between a combination of European
nations on the one side, and North,
Central and South America on the
other.
You don't know, in the event of
such a war, whether the Americas
would continue to be free and self
governed countries, or whether they
would become mere overseas posses
sions of the kings and emperors of the
old world. You may poo hoo, and
swell ont Vo1r chest. and LEFT the
eagle scream, but you don't know.
You don't know what congress viii
do in the matter of preparedness for
this country. You don't know wheth-
err it will do anything at all or not
for, truth to tell, congress is all mud
died up and don't know itself, for it

WHAT OF THE PEOPLE?

In all political parties the self con-
stituted ~"leaders" are casting around
to determine who "they" will select
to make the race for president and
vice president of the United States at
the next election.
Senator This and That and Con-
gresham So and So and Boss Some
body Else are getting their heads to-
gether in an effort to hit upon some
likely person who will be acceptable
to "them", and at the same time hop
ing and praying that the political
lightning may strike himself.
The people? Poohl They don't
count. All they are expected or al
lowed to do is to trail along to the
polls and vote as they are told to do.
They are not supposed to think, be-
cause they are not credited bv the
leaders and the bosses with possessing
any brains, to say nothing of rights.
When the "great ones" of the par
ties set their seal of approval or dis
approval upon this man ~ that man,
do they first go to the people of their
districts and ascertain who THEY
want for president?
Not a bit of it!
For VIVA 90 the people" know OF
politics? What do they know of men
and of the affairs of state? Who are
they that they should even presume to
have a voice in the selection of d
standard bearer for a great politica.
party?
At least, so reason the "great" and
the "mighty."
But some day there will come a
change. Some day the man of the
people will come into his own, and the
"great" and the %"elect" will bow down
to his wishes and crawl for his favor
Some day this country will be a ma
ton of the people and will be govern
ed by the people; and their will will be
a law unto itself.

Will they miss you?
In our homes are many little chill
dren who know you, who have passed
you on the streets, who, p%erchance,
may have been greeted with a kindly
smile or with a frown. They will re-
member you.
But will they miss you?
Even your faithful animals or pets
know you as you are and as you have
been to them.
Will they miss you?
There is nc place you may go, no
point of the compass to which you
may turn, but what people have
known you Or will know you, and by
all of these you will be judged when
you have passed away.

Excuse Me" Sort OF

(By Helen Worthington)

Are you one Of those women who
always make excuses?
There are. some, you know, who are
ever asking one to overlook some.

They make excuses for this, that
and the other thing-even the most
trivial matters.
Some there are who almost apollo.
gize for living.
One woman whom l know has &C
quired the habit of asking tolerance
so excessively that 1t actually bores
one to enter her home.
Her house is always in order. n
would be difficult to find speck OF
dust or dirt anywhere
She invariably has her work done
up in apple pie order, in the proper
, time
But the moment you enter her house
she will commence something after
this style: Excuse my appearance. l
usually get my dress changed earlier,
but today I was delayed"
Or if you drop in during the morn
ing she will explain almost before you
get inside the door: please excuse
the looks of my house but"

apology to offer for the menu or the
table appointments-though both are
ever all that could be desired.
When she starts out on pleasure
bent with some friend she begins
about her clothes. Her excuses are
iprofuse about everything she wears.
She literally tires you out with ex-
cuses. Her life seems to be one big
excuse me-" Yet she really has
nothing in the world she needs to offer
apologies for.
One scarcely ever notices whether
a house is dusty or out Of order-until
attention is called to the fact by the
hostess.
True hospitality is Offering what
ever one has with a hearty good will
minus the excuses!
And why spend the few minutes a
visitor may remain in the home apollo
giving for the contents?
There are so many interesting
things to talk about it seems strange
that the housewife should occupy all
her time in such foolish manner
Especially when it is usually uncalled
for.
Lend distinction to your clothes by
the manner in which you wear them
then even the poorest garments will
have an air all their own
Make your guest so comfortable and
happy that she will be oblivious to her
surroundings-then there will be no
need to make excuses.
Do your level best in whatever you
attempt-and it will be necessary to
ask anyone's pardon.
