The Ideals Of Our Lives
By BILL PRICE.

Good men and true-leaders of humanity and Of the
religious thought Of Washingon-have written for me Their
views Of what should constitute our ideals This spaea
today for their utteance which will prove splendid and
instructive reading:
The Washington times., 1919-07-20

RABBI ABRAM SIMON-To place
in naked relief a few Of the most
approved ideals is a sophomore past
time
Speaking broadly, l think that our
ideals depend more upon what we
put into life than upon what We draw
out OF it. Is 1t earning a livelihood
or Winning Life which is the more
determinatiVe force? Our ideals will
be easily attained if they browse in
the field of comfort, the rewards of
honorable toll and the blessings Of
health. II a mans grasp equals his
reach, he has not a mans job. II his
reach exceeds his grasp, his ideals
have been lifted from the realm Of
the i've senses into the driving area
Of vision, duty and enthusiasm Ideals
that are sinewed with vision sting
one into hatred OF wrong, q gener-
Gus tolerance for the failings Of
others, a large sympathy with suffer-
ing, demand for justice. q love Of
truth, no matter whence IT come or
how labeled, a radiating optimism
that the best is yet 20 be. Ideals are
part Of the spiritual appreciation Of
the struggles OF humanity. Your
highest personal ideal Is to be your
self at its best-characterful, vision
ed, generous, mentally alert, morally
sensitive. Your highest social ideal
10 to love humanity.
The Washington times., 1919-07-20

REV. PAUL SPERRY-The ideal
life is one that is worth endless per-
petuation, that is 1T to endure until
death in this world and then forever
in the spiritual world. It is the kind
Of life which satisfies the require
ments OF faithful service to the Lord
Jesus Christ, unstinted helpfulness to
follow men and increasing benefit to
the spiritual condition Of the indi-
vidual. This kind Of living needs an
uncramped will, a reasonable mind,
an active conscience and a love OF
hard work for the sake Of use. Sucn
conditions become fixed in the fiber
of the soul, so that in whichever world
one is living, now here or forever
there, the individual is ut to receive
and use the benefits which the Lord
is ever eager to bestow.
REV. PAUL R. COMMIT, S. j.
By ideal 1 understand the kind Of
man and woman that every man and
woman should strive to be- We can
arrive at the proper answer to this
question only by knowing why we
are in this world, who put rs here
and where we are going when We
pass from this life. Faith and rea-
SON both teach US that we have been
made out Of nothing by Almighty
God, who consequently owns rs body
and soul. He made us in order that

REV. HENRY W. o. WELLINGTON
-First-Ideal are the high places Of
desire.
Second people have to determine
whether their lives shall be lived In
the loWlands or in the highlands.
INTELLECTUALLY men and women
should desire q clear eye, q sound
body, a strong muscle, q physique
competent to demonstrate efficiently
the highest faculties and powers Of
the soul.
Fourth-Mentally people should
aim to be alert, appreciative Of the
worlds best thought, and possessing
such perception as may be had Of
the meaning Of the great movements
Of the world.
Fffth-Spiritually one should be
related to God in alteration and de-
votion, q soul ahame with finest

and living in fullest abandon to the
best interests Of mankind.
REV. H. H. D. STERRETT-To
live as becomes a child Of the Great
Father of all, here, briefly, is the
highest and most inclusive ideal for
men and women. Nor is it some
thing visionary and impracticable,
but confronts as fairly with three
fold obligation. 1t tells of our duty
to self, to live sweetly and cleanly
the life which is ours; it tells of our
responsibility for others, to serve
them as one would serve a brother
or sister, with sincerity and consid-
Grafton; and it tells Of the cite that
binds" US to God and the joy that is
ours if only we fellowship with Him
as we live our life and do our work

that he is about His Fathers bust

KINNEY SALT DEPOSITS ARE
PURI1ST EVER DISCOVERED

The assurance held cut that the
salt ef the Kinney deposits south of
Fallon is to soon find its way into
the markets of the country brings
TO mind pertinent facts which must
not be overlooked by local people
who can be decided factors in help
ing to market the product and thus
beaefit this community in a mater
ial way. Il is q fact that test after
test Of the kinney salt made in the
best laboratories of the United
States demonstrated beyond cavil
that II is the pnrest table salt ever
discovered and Prof G. F. Everett,
now deceased but formerly in the
government service, who reported
on these deposits about ten years
ago. SO characterized them His af-
fiImation was eorroborated by the
Cornell university laboratory chem
lists and the Southern Pacific chem
lists also confirmed the statement.
Prodigal Nature has removed ev-
cry element OF chance from the Kin
ney deposits. It is a straigbt-up
fair and square commercial proposi-
ton and the Churchill County Com
mercial club authorities are rropos-
ing to render whatever aid may be
within the organization power in
creating markets for the local salt.
