Great Men Died Learning.

II is well to remember that the very
greatest men died learning, like Ba-
con and Pasteur. Socrates was enter
ing old age when he drank the hem
lock, but l do not think anyone would
say that his last words were, there
fore, of no worth. The greatest bene-
factions to humanity, the greatest
services to human thought have not
all been bestowed or rendered by men
under twenty-five or even under forty
years of age, fact sometimes worthy,
of remembrance. Do not, then, fall
victims to over-eonfdence and close
your mind. The injunction is as i'm
portant for youth as for age; easy OF,
attainment for the former, difficult for
the latter; possibly for both. The past
and the present, youth and age, new
and old, all have their place in the
sun; all are needed for the widest
learning, for the highest achievement,
for the best development Of mankind.

Pay. Pray and Pea Away.

In a Long Island village there used
to be and still is group Of people who
thought a good deal Of each other In
spite of what they said, which was
frequently Of an unsympathetic M
ture, according to the New York Sun.
The group existed under various self"
imposed names and had seml-humor-
Gus motto which ran, "Pay, pray and
peg away"
All the members Of this little Assoc
citation are still alive, kicking and
lgood-natured.
Now seems an apt time to Suggest
that their motto be made public and
urged for more generai adoption.

Her Memory Faulty.

She was mlddle-aged, stylishly

was looking at the paintings In the
Corcoran Gallery Of Art through a
gold-framed lorgnette, that dangled
from a jeweled gold chain.
Another woman was standing before
a canvas, and, In q desire for informa-

"How We CAN HELP Our SOLDIERS"
There are many ways we can help our
soldiers who are fighting our cause across
the seas. We should be as sparing as
possible with all foodstuffs. especially those
that are not perishable, that the soldiers
may have plenty to keep up their strength
for the long hours of work each day. When
the soldiers are wounded on the battle
field it is necessary that they receive pro-
per attention as they may be afflicted for
life, il they don't lose their lives. So. to
do this there have to be great many
doctors and nurses. II you save your pen
MES and give them to the Red Cross. even
that little may help insure some soldier
the proper attention. If you have enough
money, you may buy Liberty Bond They
say tits our dollars alone that the Huns
are afraid of. so we should not spare them.
The more freely we give, the sooner the
soldiers will come back home. Another
good way to help them is to pray that the
awful war will soon be over. heard the
pastor Of our church say that the prayers
of the people will some day end the war.
These are only few things which we
boys and girls may do for the soldiers who
are doing so much for US.
