THE CITY BEAUTIFUL.

THE standards of community may
not be Judged by its finest homes,
it's most exclusive clubs, it's fash
ionable churches, its aristocratic boule-
wards. If you want to know what city
is, walk through its alleys, view the back
streets where the common people live.
II the mechanic is well-clothed and the
day-laborer Well-fed, if all the children
are in school, if the mothers are happy,
the city is wonderful, even if it has no
millionaire's mansions, no gardens with
ripping fountains and languid lagoons, no
cathedrals with pillared arches and dream
ing spires.
A city of modest homes and happy
hearths is better in the sight of man and
nobler in the contemplation Of God than
metropolis where want dwells next-door
to wealth and perjury elbows pride -Daw-
son Sentinel.

Our contemporary, the Redwood Sun,
in its last issue commented strongly and
condemned roundly the practice of Red
wood Falls autoists in speeding their cars
on the city streets The practice is grow
ing daily and just why it is permitted is
not to be comprehended A second repre-
hensible practice is the allowing of chill
dren under sixteen years of age to drive
cars. Only last week the writer witnessed
a most hair-raising drive made by young
daredevil whom, we firmly believe, was
below the age specified in the city ordi-
nance covering this matter. The public
has been warned positively on what would
happen if the laws covering these two
matters were infringed. It would seem
now that. some action would well be taken
which would make our streets little less
dangerous for pedestrians, children and
the occupants of cars.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 18th, 1917.
ON QUITTING.

How much grit do you think you've got
Can you quit thing that you like a lot
You may talk of pluck; it's an easy word
And where'er you go it is often heard
But can you tell to a jot, or guess
Just how much courage you now possess
Don't boast of your grit till you've tried
it out,
Nor pirate to men of your courage stout
For it's easy enough to retain a grin
In the face of a fight there's chance
to win.
But the sort of grit that is good to own
Is the stuff you need when you're all
alone.
How much grit do you think you've got ?
Can you turn from the joys that you
like lot?
Have you ever tested yourself to know
How far with yourself your will can go?
If you want to know whether or not you
have grit
Just pick out joy that you like-to quit
It's bully sport and it's open fight,
It will keep you busy both day and night,
For the toughest kind of game you'll find,
Is to make your body obey your mind,
And you never will know what is meant
by grit,
Unless there's something you've tried
to quit. Detroit Free Press.
