give The Boy
A Fair Chance

Do you ever say, John, when we
pillow that west meadow this spring do
you think We had better put in corn,
or shall we try potatoes?" Get John
to thinking. You will quicken his
powers of observation if you ask him,
when the weather is threatening,
whether he thinks it will rain before
night. Alas for the boy who has no
encouragement to think! 1t is easier
to fill a lank purse than it is an i'm
poverished mind.
Get every bushel of wheat and corn
out of that old farm that thought and
perspiration and cultivation, and ferti-
.lizers will produce, but remember that
the biggest crop that old farm can
ever raise is crop of ambitious, in
dependent, Woodworking, Godfearing
Toys; boys who have been taught to
think with their brains as we'll as to
work with their hands. Give that
crop a fair chance!

encouragement and appreciation fall
upon him and then watch him grow.
Never give the hired man new, shin
irg, sharp hoe, and then give the boy
some old stub of dog-eared hoe and
expect him to keep up with the hired
man. You can not cultivate dollar
ambition in boy with ten-cent tools
Give him a fair chance and perhaps he
will set the pace for the hired man.
When the boy is small give him 6
chance to make his own decisions
when possible. Why command wher
suggestions will bring about the righ-
result? A boys sense of fairness
and of right and wrong develops rap
idly when he has chance to decide
some things for himself. When
"John, isn't it time the cows wer'
fed ?" will do the work, never be guilt,
of saying sternly, "Young man, it j
high time those cows were fed; ge
busy, now!"

Ships Names May

When Mrs. Wilson got the brilliant
idea Of giving a number of the Ship

did not think, of course, of the trouble
she was laying up for shippers. This
is well expressed, according to the
Exporters Review, in the monthly let

says:-"Quistconk, Wahiakum, Walk
