Conscience

Did you ever start to do something that
was wrong or not just right and have
feeling come over you that made you feel
that you shouldn't do it? No doubt you
have. There is a constant struggle within
each of us. That feeling that wants us to
do right is Conscience; and that, that would
have us do wrong is temptation. Very few
wrongs or injustices are ever committed
without the knowledge of the one commit
ting them. There's story told of an old
Indian who once asked white man for
some tobacco. The white man gave him
a loose handful from his pocket. There
was quarter of dollar in the tobacco that
neither knew Of. The next day the Indian
returned the money. The white man asked
him, "why didn't you Keep the money!"
The Indian replied. 81 have good man
and bad man here pointing to his
breast. The good man said to me, The
money is not yours; take it back to the
owner The bad man said to me, Never
mind, keep it,. The good man said, mo,
no; that would be wrong The bad man
replied, keep it; the white man does not
know about it, did not know what to
do, so l decided to go to sleep, but
couldn't sleep, for the good man and the
bad man quarreled all night. They troubled
me. l have brought the money back and
l feel happy" Like the old Indian, we all
know what is right and what we should do.
But the question is, have we the courage
and manhood to crush the tempter.-Ex.

Somebody Forgets

| read some time ago in an esteemed
contemporary of little boy living in the
most poverty stricken section of a great
city who had been induced to attend chu rch
and Sunday-school. For one whose re-
ligious training had been utterly neglected
he made astonishing progress and imbibed
eagerly the rudiments of religion. He had
been impressed with the truth that God
loved him, and found much comfort in the
knowledge. One day not long after, some
one tried to shake the child's faith by ask
ing him some puzzling questions:
''If God really loves you why doesn't He
take better care of you? Why doesn't He
tell somebody to send you pair of shoes
or else coal enough SO that you can keep
warm in winter?'
The boy thought moment and then
said, as the tears rushed to his eyes: 81
guess He does tell somebody and some
body forgets.
The saddest thing about the answer is, its
truth. God is not unmindful of His little
ones. Whether they are in want of fire or
food or advice or sympathy, He calls us to
supply the things that are needed. He
tells us that every act of kindness or help
fulness done to the least or lowest of His
creatures He will count as done to Him-Ex.

The Mole Wasn't Always
Blind

Disuse is misuse. A rusty saw soon loses
its bite. Neglect ruins more machinery
than wear and tear. Unemployed faculties
as well as tools, quickly deteriorate. when
you re out of condition you're out of COM
petition. There's no security in playing
safe. Continue to avoid chances and after
awhile they'll avoid you. There's no pros
pect for the man without faith in his own
powers. The biggest risk is, never taking
one. Large winnings begin with small
losings. Confidence springs from the know
ledge of recuperative strength.
Character exercises itself upon rebuffs..
The hardest fall is the first; we all start out
with an inGrained fear of failure but after
we once land with bump and recover our
balance, the next uncertainty is less formid-
able.
A baby would never walk if it would
quit trying after one fall-down. Go out
and watch Aedgeling making trial flight
It's afraid of the distance to the ground,
but the wise old hen bird knows from her
own experience that wings won't work I'M
til they are used, and keeps urging her chick
until it overcomes the dread of tumblng
Fly at it. You can't earn big share until
you learn to take a big dare. Anybody who
expects to direct even little group of his
fellows must first demonstrate, through past
arfo he
atoms without hesitation. All positions of
responsibility demanded resource, orignali-
ty and self-reliance. Life is stuggle. The
mole tried to avoid that fight by remaining
out of sight, and now he must keep under
ground-be is unable to survive in world
for which he is no longer equipped. Once
he had all his senses-he grew blind by
staying in the dark York American.

Women, Arise!

Man-they have failed to build the world

Behold the dust of Babylon and Troy
Behold Palmyra faded to name
Behold all Europe black with battle flannel
q mothers, will you longer give your sons
To feed the awful hunger of the guns?
0 women of earth, this is the hour OF fate:
Come forth to build the safety of the State!
What is the worth of all these battle drums
If from the field the loved one never

What all these flags rejoicing overhead,
If you are left to watch above your dead?
What all these loud hozannas to the brave
If all your share is some new-covered

Another Chance

God give me the chance to try again,
Il, who have missed the goaD,
Let me, as flint, set my face again
To shape, to build up the whole,
Give unto me the coveted chance
To make myself a man,
To battle once more with new forged
lance,
To lift from my soul, the ban
God give me the chance to strive again,
Accoutre me for the fray.
Let me wipe out the old time stain
In blood OF newborn day!
Give me the courage that never swerves
Though foe should harrass me sore.
Give me the faith that steadies the nerves,
mistaken forevermore!
God give me the chance to march again
In the Vanguard of the race;
What matter the clouds, the shifting vane,
The blasts that wrinkle my face!
Let me endure both hardship and pain
As l scale the heights to you;
And hoping, loving, striving again,
To fashion my life anew!

The End of The Road

There's always an end to the road, you
know,
Though the journey seems long and
rough and slow.
In the country shade or the thriving town
Your journey will end if you don't lay
down.
1t may seem weary and bleak and chill
AS you toll to the top of the misty
hill,
And seen from the summit no rest in store
But way that looks rougher than before.
You may finch from the smart of the
singing pain,
AS you set your face to the sleety rain
And think with fierce, resentful sigh
Of poisoning path and s,ar-strewn
sky.
But sooner Or later glow so warm
Will shine from a window through
the storm,
AS happiness beckons your footsteps slow,
There's always an end of the road, you
know Washington Star.

Some years ago became acquainted with
and interested in young chap who seemed
to have unusual promise to success in any
vocation he might choose.
He went through high school and college
with GA credits practically all the way.
During college years he earned by hard
labor every dollar for his expenses. AT
graduation nothing seemed lacking to make
his future secure. A fine physique, striking
personality, abundant energy and superb
mentality. He quickly found a position
with large corporation in the type business
for which he had often expressed a prefer
ence. For the first two years promotions
were rapid. Compensation increased inside
of three years from $500 per year to $1,000.
Prophecies were freely made that he
would some day be the "head of the con-
Germ Then came long period of rather
indifferent success TO be followed by some
reductions in rank and pay instead of former
advances. Wondering why, sought an
interview with his immediate chief and was
quietly but firmly told that some suspicious
as to the stability of his character had been
aroused and that further promotions were
impossible until this doubt could be re-
moved. was told che was being watched.
Later | received grumbing letter from
him saying he had been unjustly treated
and let out.-Ex.

Comrades, our ranks are growing thin
AS the eventful years pass by;
Not in the fight, with blood and din,
But even in peace the veterans die!
The eyes that once were strong and clear
To see the mad and watchful foe,
Have lost their keenness year by year
In this worlds mingled toll and woe.
The hands that once grasped sword or CUR
Have now grown tremulous and weak;
But what great victories they have won
All histories of their deeds will speak.
No more the worn and weary feet
Will! march to scenes of noblest strife,
Mid sitting dust or melting heat,
Each hero cared not for his life.
Lay flowers on graves of patriots dead,
Whether they wore the blue or gray;
Our country's flag is DER them spread
