BOYS, DON'T.

Don't forget that you are to be
men and husbands.
Don't smoke in the presence of
ladies.
Don't a your respect to 4
person by the clothes he wears.
Don't try to make your fortune by
easier means than hard work.
Don't speak carelessly of 4 lady's
character. 1t is her only anchor.
Don't forget that the best and the
greatest man that ever walked the
earth was a boy.
Don't haunt the lady of your choice
at Il ball. party OF picnis. She has
certain civilities to pay elsewhere.
Don't fix your stare on the fair
ones that pass along the streets. To
stare at any one is not manly at all.
Don't neglect your business. Take
pains to do your work well. Good
workmen are always in demand.
Don't sheer at the opinions of 9th
ers. You may learn wisdom from
those far less %pretentious than your
self.
| Don't swear. II is not necessary
and does no good. 1t is neither wise,
manly nor polite, nor agreeable to
| others.
Don't grow up to be a soured old
bachelor, when there are so many
true and lovely girls that will make
such excellent wives.
Don't firt with a young lady to
whom you are a perfect stranger. Ii
looks most ridiculous. And you may
get thrashed for it some day.
Don't unnecessarily make enemies
The good will of a dog is better thai
his i'll will. But don't cripple your
independence and your individuality
to please friends.

sELF-MADE ExILEs

Liberty Loan and Red Cross drives
disclose in nearly every community
certain obstinate slackers. They are
so few nowadays that they at once
become notorious and are pointed out
like the man with the rubber eal
and the arnless boy-dismal freaks
standing in sharp contrast to normal
humanity.
Very rarely are they pro-German
Pro- ermanism does not advertise it
self now in that conspicuous way
Mostly they are grouches and
sponges. Their simple psychology is
that ola pig In clover patch. While
the feeding il good, nothing less than
the impact of rock against the ribs
or of a scantling on the spinal col
umn will inspire them to move on. Sc
long as somebody else will keep the
boat going they will neither bail MOI
row. They are the cross grained, bill
ious sort which nurses all real OF
fancied grievances against the com
munity in general.
Small as their number is, they raise
an irritating problem. The commu.
nity's feeling toward them is like the
feeling of men who have been volun.
teering to put out fire toward the
able bodied citizen who refused tt
lend hand but perched on a horse
block at a safe distance and watched
their efforts with amused interest
The inclination to throw brick in his
direction is strong and natural. But
it must be resisted.
There is nothing to be done witt
these obstinate slackers except to LEI
them extensively alone. No man car
thrive on the contempt of the co1nmu
nifty in which he lives. They mus
find that out. The man who is wei
able to lend a hand now and refuses
to do it voluntarily exiles himself
from the sympathy and respect of hi
neighbors. Let his own judgmen
upon himself as an exile stand in tn,

Justice Whitfield, who was renomi-
mated IN the recent primary, was one
of the members of the supreme court
who gave Will Knott q certificate of
nomination. It was prophesied by the
Cattites that he was killing himself
politically, but he went on and did
his duty. His denomination is a
healthy sign Ocala Star.
But Judge Whitfield had discretion
enough after Cats was elected gov
erior to recognize him as governor
and give him loyal support and not
abuse. And some little newspaper
men might learn lesson from Judge
Whitfield. Tallahassee Democrat.
Well, we don't know. About the
littlest newspaper man in the state is
friend Smith of the Democrat. and
living in the same town with Justice
Whitfield doesn't make him grow
either in grace or good sense. Judge
Whitfield, like the Star, and all other
law-abiding Floridians, has recogniz-
ed Cats as governor, but we haven't
heard of his going out of his way to
express any great devotion to him.

Whenever we hear of strike that
delays any work necessary to the
government (and almost all real
work is necessary to the government
these days), most Of us condemn the
strikers Al good many employers are
taking advantage of that feeling to
impose on their employees. A manu-
faeturer on, man conducting any great
work is whole lot more unpatriotic
than his workmen if he driven them
into striking. The government seems
to be handling labor affairs with
good judgment and steadily welding
the working men into loyal and en-
ergetic Industrial army. There is
mighty little doubt of the loyalty of
the great majority of the American
labor class.
