HOW HIGH DO YOU AIM?

In this age of great attainments
in the arts and sciences, in the
trades and professions, we hear
much said of the duty of tanning
high,'' meaning thereby to- excel in
some particular line.
The farmer is urged to develop
his soil to the maximum of fertility,
the stockman to develop his live
stock to the highest point. The
manufacturer is rot satisfied with
an inferior article, but must produce
the best. The lawyer aspires to be
a leader in his profession, while the
doctor would be final authority on
the ills of the flesh
All this is commendable and as it
should be, for it is just such an am
bition to excel that has made of
these United States the great nation
she is today.
But there is one Industry" in
which, without careful thought, we
as nation are in grave danger OF
retrogression - of disintegration
This is in the building of character
in the making of good citizens.
Should we not give more attention
to the creation of a high grade of
manhood, as we'll as a perfect horse
or turnip? Should we not strive tc
produce men who will raise the
standard of citizenship to higher
plane than that to which we, their
fathers, have attained?
While it may not be possible fo1
us to scale earth's Hottest mountain
peak, yet does that gives uslicense
to grovel at the base of the meanest
hill?
To reduce a sermon to a few
words, we achieve nothing in life
that is higher than the goal to which
we aspire, for the destiny Of each
man is controlled by the quality Of
his own mind.
How high do you aim in life?

Official County and Village Paper.
JUST PLAIN HORSE SENSE.

"How will I spend my vacation
this summer" Oh, yes, we know
YOU would like to trot off to the sea-
shore, and splash around in the
water, and show strangers what a
fine figure you have, and annex a
coat Of fashionable tan, and eat the
vile stuff the summer hash houses
hand out to you, and all that sort of
bunk. But here's a little old-fash-
toned horse sense and it won't cost
you even a thank you.
Within ten or fifteen miles of this
town are many Of the finest farms
in the country. In the summer time
you will find growing on these farms
about everything you care to eat.
You will find cattle, and hogs, and
sheep, and other animals galore.
They are good to look at and it
won't cost you anything to look.
Then you will find good,- honest, in
telligent, wholesouled people on
those farms, too-people who mean
what they say, and don't fiatter you
to your face and call you freak
when your back is turned. They are
good people to know and better peo-
pie to have as friends. Go out and
spend your vacation on one of those
farms. Feed the chickens and the
calves, and learn to milk the cow
and stick on the back of horse.
Wear a fifteen-cent straw hat and
ride around on the loads of hay as
the farmer is drawing it into the
barn. Pick flowers and give your
tired and dusty lungs treat by
breathing the pure air of the coun-
try and the fragrance Of fields that
are green. BE real sport, and not
an imitation. Get back to nature
once in your life if you nexer get
there again. Get few friends to-
gether, pick out the place you want
to go, and write to the farmer. If
he can accommodate you it may cost
you but a few dollars and be of in
estimable value to your future
health. This is just homely language,
but darned good human sense.
