1 often wonder what we should see
If we could lift the parietal bones Of
our young people and take peep at
their thoughts, as the Devil on Two
Sticks took off the roofs of the houses.
If thoughts were visible, we might
make some surprising discoveries.
Once In while the student, who usu-
ally talks about anything but his best
thoughts, speaks out with startling dis
tinctness. "What right has he to
usurp the Office Of providenceT said
IN intelligent and indignant boy to me

WOODS THAT ARE DURABLE
Above All, the Cypress 10 Coming Into
General Use for Purposes Of
Interior Decoration.

Wood, its uses and, above all, Its
prices, are matters of moment to ev-
eryone who contemplates building, re-
modelling or adding to house.
There IRE some southern pines that
are comparatively reasonable and
which give good results. Houses built
of them In Virginia and the Carolinas
attest to their durability. 1t is suit
able for interior finish, as 1t has n va
riety Of grains and takes on n good
finish, whether In soft stain or hard
enamel paint.
Cypress Is being used for many pur-
poses. The great swamps of the South
are yielding up their forests and the
lumber Is finding its way into the
northern markets. This is not as
strong wood as some Others but 1t
has good lasting qualities and is equal
ly good for exterior and interior fin
ish. 1t Is very satisfactory finished in
its natural color.
A wood that Is finding much favor
for interior finish Is the red gum, also
from the South. 1t may be had highly
figured or plain, quarter-sawed or plain
sawed, and 1t takes very fine finish.
The red gum Is finished in its natural
tones or stained to initiate mahogany
and sometimes brown walnut.

TEACH CHILDREN RIGHT WAY
Education That Teaches Them Merely
to Avoid Wrong Cannot Be
Called Sufficient.

The average man Is naturally pessi-
mlstlc, or inclined that way, and Is
apt to spend more time and effort find
ing fault with things as they are, and
trying to tear them down, than TO cor
recting them, or substituting better
things.
This comes from, or is largely due
to, the prevailing habit of teaching
children and young people to avoid do
ing wrong rather than teaching them
to do right. In this way they become
so impressed with the immensely OF
wrong and the littleness of right that
they grow up with feeling that wrong
has gotten the better of right.
The natural conclusion must then be
that we are going to the everlasting
bow-wows, and the very best we can
do is to put the brakes on and go as
slowly as possible.
And yet every one of us ought to
know and should realize, that the way
to get rid Of wrong is to substitute
right, for wrong disappears before
right as darkness before light, or cold
before heat.
Where wrong is, right is not; and
where right Is, wrong cannot come.
Right can never become wrong, no
more than love can become hate

zette-Times.

HYRUM HAPPENINGS.

Hyrum, April 9.-Last week fin
ished our sleigh riding in Hyrum,
and, oh, how nice it Is to hear the
rumble Of the wagons again. For
at least month we have inpatient
ly been looking for the snow to dis
appear. The hay question has been
a very serious problem and would
no doubt have proven disastrous in
some cases had it not been that
Bishop J. Facer succeeded in bring
ing few carloads of hay into town
during the last two weeks. But now
when we are getting towards the end
of our worry about the snow and the
hay question we get the war to con-
tend with. On April 8, Mr.. Phillip
Maness put his name down in history
as the first Hyrum boy to enlist in
the U. S. army. A number of the
citizens, headed by Mayor H. H. Jen-
sen and Marshall Albertsen, got busy
and in a short time collected enough
money to buy the young man a new
suit of clothes and little purse for
pocket money. Quite large crowd
gathered at the station to see him
off. At present quite a number Of
our young men are thinking serious
ly about enlisting; some of them are
ready to go, but are waiting for a
few others to make up their mind.
Tomorrow, April 10, we are going to
have grand patriotic demonstration
to show our loyalty to the Stars and
Stripes.
