How many hungry hearts there are
in the world, hungering for recogni-
ton, for a word Of praise! The hun
griest heart in this world is an I'M
praised woman whose husband never

If some men acted half as decently
at home as they do when away from
home, there would be a great deal of
brightness added to domestic life.
The truest and most respected of

Graduation day with all its flowers,
will soon be here. You can already
scent the fragrance of blossoms. Our
people have always taken great pride
in our schools, and no student ever
carried away a diploma but took it
with the best wishes of the people.
Speaking of the rapid approach of an
other graduation day reminds us that
there is nothing more pleasant in the
busy hum-drum of after years than to
permit your mind to wander back to
the days of school life, the sweet
memories and incidents that come up,
the smiling faces and pleasant coun-
tenances; the old school house door,
that has so often admitted you, swing
ing back and forth on its great him
ges; the very walls speaking forth Of
happy hours; while at your side
stands the noble teacher who has
watched your every move, and is as
much interested in your success as
you are yourself.
What there is in us that is good or
beautiful can be seen by our neigh
bors in the neatness of our gardens
and premises. When you see a gar
den well filled with choice vegetables
and rare flowers the owner has his
heart in the right place.
