GRAB IT-HOLD IT!

A great many of our readers know Dick" only that is not his real He is brght-eyed youngster who plays hard every day
 A few days ago watched him and his play mates having game of baseball. The the time we stopped to look unimpOrtant detail Dick eyes were off the rapidly moving sphere. Suddenly hard and fast fly bated to his field Out in this filed great puddle of water left by rain. and the ball straight for that puddle And Dick went straight for the ball. Perhaps he the puddle at least he knew there-but his eyes the ball. As the ball shot for the ground Dick eaped into the air and caught the ball. and-spash! he flat in the dirty hoe But the hand that had nailed the fly never touched the ground He waded out covered with mud and soaked to the hide two facts of which he seemed because he had caught the fly-and had held it.
 Some boys would have started for the ball and stop ped at the edge of the puddle Some others would have lost it when they fell Dick held on.
 That particular ball game will soon be forgotten affair, or at the best only memory But pie ture Dick when he gets into the real game of life be- ing cassed among the star players. He will look for the little unpleasant things but will hur himself at the bali and hold for dear life. He may fall in the mud he may have to be fsled out-but when he comes to the top, in his hand you will the ball.
 One great afflicton of many of it the tendency to first look for the puddle instead of the ball. And bv the time We have figured out every little chance against a successful catch the ball is gone.
 When the ball of life is battcd into your field ural 1t.

Encouraging
 Bolshevisnn

Everything that falsely en- courages unrest also encourages bolshevism.
 Misunderstanding of Amer ican industrial organization, and of its benefits to mankind, leads to unrest, dissatisfaction, and radicaism.
 For example, the Federal Trade Commission tells the pub lie that the large packers had an agreed price for lard substitute (made of cotton-seed oil.
 It reproduces letters taken from the files of one of the packers, showing that such agreed price existed.
 But it failed to mention that the agreed price was deter mined at the request of and in cooperation with the Food Administration!
 Even the Department of Jus tice, in its unjust attempt to create prejudice against the packers, has made public these same letters, with no explanation.
 How long must this kind of misrepresentation continue2 In so far as it is believed, it not only breeds discontent, but re- suits in injustice to our industry.

 Particular practical politicians are very much alive this week in anticipa- tion of the town election returns next Monday. On the surface of things there is quiet and even lethargy, bat in the subterranean passages the friends and lieutenants of certain can didates are leaving no stone anturned for success. Especially is this the case in the contest for selectmen. It is foregone conclusion, however, that the republican candidates will make clean sweep in the political brush. Besides the election of off cers, the appended town matters will be voted upon: Report for past year action upon selectmen's estimate of expenses the ensuing year, care and maintenance of bridges, appropria. tions for schools and public library to consider the advisability of pur- chasing a chemical fire engine, etc.
