SALARY REIMBURSEMENT.

Senator Carlos Bee proposes that
supreme court justices shall receive
a salary of $1,000 per year, court of
criminal appeal judges $4,000 and liz.
trict judges $1,000. The laborer sho, Il
be worthy of his hire. It is admittol
that the present salaries paid to the
high court judges are inadequate. It
is also admitted that the pay Of the
district judges is niggardly. There
may be district judges who are iCt
worth $4,000 year. But fair ay
would induce capable men to make
the race and adorn the judiciary of
the state. A $500O-a.year man is
worth the money. A shrimp on the
bench isn't worth $4,000 a year.--Tt.
Worth Record.
The Eagle believes in paying good
salaries. II the needless offices and
commissions were abolished, we could
pay our high officials decent salaries
and still be winner. The Eagle has
long contended that the governo 6
salary is entirely out Of proportion to
the Importance and dignity Of the
office. That Texas-an empire-only
pays her governor $4,000 year, is
a disgrace. The salary should be ten
thousand dollars.

GO TO SUNDAY SCHOOL.

The Scotchman, Robert Raikes,
taught children to read and write, and
on Sunday. The result is seen In the
free public schools Of today. A justi
fication Of the Sunday school is seen
In what this gave rise to, and II has
not outllved its usefulness in giving
to the world this single product.
The purpose of the Sunday school
Is lofty. II is the implanting OF
Christian character in the lives and
hearts of children. Since character
Is basic, no greater work can be
found than implanting the love Of
God and the love Of man in the hearts
OF the younger generation. The pur.
pose also is definite. II is the habit
OF weekly religious performance OF
duty. Briefly, the aim should be the
founding Of Christian character in the
study Of Bible history and It's appli.
cation to modern life; the revealing
OF the forces Of character as seen in
the life Of Jesus and the saints; tho
cultivation of the higher life, Of max.
Ing the soul the dominant force and
end Of living, and the training of a
life consecrated not to self, but to
man and to God. Is It not here that
the missing element OF the world to.
day is to be found? This is the pro.
gram OF the Sunday school.
Compare the Sunday school with
the public school. In one there is an
outlay Of money and all engaged are
paid for their services; in the other
there Is service OF love. In one the
rewards are temporal; In the other
they are life eternal. Since like be.
gets like, only OF the spirit comes the
spirit. A factory produces goods, a
college scolars and citizens; a Sunday
school produces just what YOU nut

The new adversary of the Teutonic
powers is a small island situated
northeast of Sardinia. 1t is only five
miles long by three wide, rising alb
ruptly out of the sea to an altitude
of half a mile.
Tavolara, until 1882, was an absO-
lutte monarchy, the last sovereign be-

luton broke out and the island be-
came republic under the protection
of Italy. One of Tavolara's fishing

Francis Hackett declares in his re-

whose merit is more clearly recognized

ought to have been a foreigner to be

Where" he says, 1.-The Nature of

away above the current discussions
of supernationalism is in its compare

nothing more significant has been

KEEP SMILING

Smile, for when you smile another
smiles and soon there are miles and
miles of smiles"-so runs the old ad-
age. Smiling is contagious, it spreads
unconsciously, it lubricates the world
silently.
1t may seem easy to wear smile
when all goes wrong about you If
YOU are in a facetious mood when you
so believe and speak. But the prob
lem is vastly different, when dark
shadows are cast about you, when
difficulties beset your path, when cir
cumstances retard your progress,
when disease, death or war upset your
plans.
Nothing so completely dispels
gloom, inspires confidence or creates
a healthy spirit among persons as a
smile. 1t is the disseminator of cheer,
courage, health and love. A man
without a smile is like a sunset with
out color, a home without sympathy,
a rose without fragrance.
Through the fearful months, days
and hours that await US we must of
necessity, but should voluntarily,
scatter among our companions the
uplifting rays Of our smiles as the
sun casts its rays among plants and
make them thrive. Let your smile
so shine before the world that the
people may know your message of
good cheer and be inspired thereby!

workmanship in Words.

THE English language is on the
whole as good as any man ever
spoke; let us do all we can to keep
it good" This is the stand taken by
James P. Kelley in his Workman
ship in Words" His effort is to
check the appalling increase every
day in slipshod English that would
not have been tolerated for a moment
hundred years ago. 1T is good to
know" he says, that the greatest
master of English fiction believes in
workmanship"
The author doesn't wander in his
writing. He stands behind his criti-
cisms with good examples of the or
dinary misuse of the language by
persons who should know better.
Those who butcher the language in
writing he harps upon. and not upon
the laymen whose conversational
English is as slipshod and dismaying
to the would-be critic.
In his chapters on the pronoun.
and ease, euphOny, for

up many stumbling blocks in the
path of the amateur writer.
