our Appointed Place.

That girl who values her peace OF
mind will. instead of indulging in use
less regrets, wisely resolve to adjust
herself to circumstances. Everyone
of US can, II we so decree it, either les
sen or make heavier our respective
burdens. Therefore, how foolish TO
waste time In senseless longing or to
feel that all our days shall be color
less. The big position we sigh after
may be greater than cur talents or our
ability. Indeed If some wonderful
fairy suddenly placed us In it the
chances are that we would not only
prove a sad misft, but would soon be
come downright miserable. True, the
world offers big prizes to the person
whose genius shines out from her as
sociates, but not all recognized. OF
successful women are happy. If we
are practical and hope to find content
ment we will certainly give idle wish
ing a wide berth We belong to our
own sphere-nOt to any other individ-
uars and we will spend our ener-
gies on making the best Of ourselves
In our own appointed places.-Chica-

If the determination of the fly was
left solely to us humans, the world
would be nothing but a thick mass Of
insects. AS with all other of ma
tures creatures, the housefy has nat
ural enemies. Birds prey upon the fly.
Toads, spiders and other animals also
deplete the ranks of the fly in huge
quantities. Only these natural en-
emies prevent the fly from filling the
earth in immense clouds. Kipling's law
is exemplitied in the life of the fly ex-
terminators. The toad is beset by the
snake and the toad devours flies. Life
is the survival of the fittest.

BELTRAMI SUPPORTS r..
;. WORK OF THE N.M.D.A.

AT the meeting of the Northern
Minnesota Development association
being held at Grand Rapids, T..
Fred r. Lincoln. the secretary Of
the association, in presenting his an
nual report, covered briefly the part
the organization has taken In efforts
to meet conditions and emergencies
as they arose and to guard and pro-
mote the interests Of the residents of
Northern Minnesota.
Concerning the finances, he said:
"The N. M. D. A. has been seriously
handicapped in its work this year by
lack of financial support. The fol-
lowing counties have met assess
ments and were 1t not for their sup
port, the work could not have been
carried on with any degree Of sue
cess: Beltrami, Itasca, Cass, Crow
Wing, Clearwater, Lake and st.
Louis; only one-half Of the counties
in the organization. The working
capital of the association has been
small and for this reason, this office
has avoided all unnecessary expendi-
lures in junkets and trips to con-
ferences, advertising and other ex-
penditures.
