SOME soUND PHILOSOPHY.

We notice on the last page Of an interesting report
made Of a South Bend financial institution. whose presl
dent. ]. G. Paxton, is a relative of W. G. Paxton. the
Hammond banker, the following seven mistakes Of life
4. The deIusion that individual advancement is
made by crushing others down.
2 The tendency TO worry about things that can
not be changed or corrected.
8. Insisting that a thing is impossible because
we ourselves cannot accomplish it.
4. Attempting TO compel other men to believe
and live as we do.
s.. Failure to refine the mind by acquiring the
habit Of reading good literature.
6, Refusing to set aside trivial preferences. In
order that important things may be accomplished.
z. The failure to establish the habit Of saving
money.
This is sound philosophy. If people lived with The
idea of seeking to eliminate in their daily life these pos
sible mistakes. the world would be wellnigh perfect, anc
even if a man was unable to dodge all Of them, the YER,
fact that had tried to do so would help to make his lf'
worth living.

LOCUST

June a horde of locusts embracing Al
ALBANIA on the south. Indiana on the west
Vermont on the north and n ocean on
the east They Will be Of both the thir-
teen and the seventeen-yaar vaierties.
The department issues a series Of maps
showing in what parts Of the country
these insects viii turn up each year.
The maps prophesy for many years 70
come. Some years show infestations for
only a small section; others will have
the locusts widespread. Thu 1919 Is
scheduled as a great locust year; 1929
will be the next one.
CIcADA NOT DANGEROUS.
The sudden incidence Of the cicada at
stated intervals and in fabulous numbers
suggests the terrific onset Of the true
locust, which has become a legend. This
one striking feature has given the gentle
insect the fearsone name of locust. In
every other respect the cicada Is as little
like its namesake as an insect can be.
II does not migrate. as the locust swarm
does. 1t is destructive only in the slight
est degree. And it is another kind Of
~eatur entirely.
Rural parts this year will enjoy excel
lent opportunities to observe the cicada
in its short. merry life in the air and
sunshine. The female uses the branches
of trees as receptacles for her eggs.
These she deposits by trusting them into
the tender shoot. The fact that the
cache of eggs. if a young fruit tree is
selected. is liable to put one Of the big
t~wo-legged mammals a few dollars out
Of pocket disturbs the eager mother not
a bit. She olithely performs her duty.

Wedding Bells

;
On Wednesday evening, March 26,
at the Congregational parsonage,
Miss Ila May Tenney, one of New
ports most popular young ladies, was
united in marriage with Elmer J. Az
Grill, a travelling salesman of Port
land, Me. Miss Tenney has for a
number of years been an assistant in
the office of DIR. H. F. Hamilton of
this city, where by her genial ways
and marked ability she has won a
host of friends, which was abundantly
evidenced by the large number of
beautiful wedding gifts that came to
her. The exact time OF the wedding
was carefully guarded ard the expect
alton was that they would make their
getaway without the usual demon
stration that attends The departure
of wedding parties, but in this they
were disapr oif'+cd. for the secret had
leaked and Chef. friends greeted them
as they alighted from the autombile
with a generous amount of confetti
and rice. They left on the midnight
train for Boston and other points, and
after their return they will take up
their residence in Portland. The best
wishes of a large circle of friends go
with them.

American truant officers should see to

all nations are much the same; and

time as now; because we are all so
much nearer together we are all so
