Lived Exemplary Life

Mr.. Jewell was a Christian young
man. and his life has been an example
tor other youg men, When mere
hoy he gave his heart 20 God, and has
lived a most exemplary life, the
church being first in his thoughts.
He was a true and devoted son Of
fond and loving Christian parents; a
faithful friend, and his thought was
ever for others. what he might do 70
comfort and relieve them.
While in France, he kept a diary
which. after his accident his mother
was reading Turning to the record
just one year ago from the day he was
injured, she read in her boys own
handwriting where he had recorded
having sought out. and with the aid OF
a kind French woman found the
grave of his old Annapolis friend. Al
bert Green, who died over there.
Finding the grave. he placed flowers
on il. and paid the French woman to
put flowers there whenever she could.
1t was just such acts as this that
characterized his life He lived for
others Upon his return from over
seas he was offered a number OF good
positions. declining them all because
he thought his father needed him in
his business especially at this time
His Christian life and character
stand out in bold relief and are a
legacy to his friends as a standard of
exemplary living.

HEAD WORK.


Whatever your station in tn
business world, it was the use o
your brains that placed yo1
there. If you have climbed tn
ladder of success, you have mad
good use of your brains, hav'
employed them to your advan
rage If you have slipped down
ward in the scale of life. you have
failed to take proper advantage
Of the opportunities afforded
YOU You have held the business
instinct Of your brain in check
You have not permitted it to
function properly. Brains were
made to use-n0t to abuse.
This fact should be kept well
in mind by the young men of this
community who are just entering
the door Of life's career. That
career will depend upon the man
ner in which they employ their
brains.
The enthusiasm of youth is ma
tural and is to be expected. 1t
is valuable asset. But enthus-
iasm should not be allowed to run
its course unchecked. 1t should
be curbed, lest it go over the
brink Of the commercial preci-
pice. The business world is full
of precipices- destructive pit
falls for the feet of the impulsive
and the mwary.
The bridge to success can not
be crossed in a day. 1t is long
and there are many distractions
to BATTLE the novice in the world
of affairs. But brains properly
will win. Thirty mem
utes at the close of business each
day can do wonders. The labors
of the day can be analysed. Was
each task properly performed?
How could it have been improved
upon? Let the brain answer those
two questions properly each day
and the problem Of success in life
will have been solved.
The human brain is like a gar
den. When cultivated it produc- |!
es in abundance. Ii neglected it |
soon becomes barren waste. The
young men of this community |
have brai1is plenty of brains.
We want to see them grow and

March broke all production
records ever made by the Ford
Motor Company, Detroit, both for
| the number Of cars produced in
one day and one month. March
9th, 1886 cars left the assem-
bly, lines at the home plant and
branches, while the record for the
month was 94,299 cars. These
figures represent production in
the United States only, and do
not take into consideration the
Canadian or foreign plants.
Here's an illustration of the
amount of railroad cars it would
take to ship this vast swarm Of
Fords. Loaded six in freight
car with fifty freight cars to each
train, it would take 314 trains to
carry them, and there would be
enough left over to start pa
rade.
Notwithstanding the fact that
production in April dropped to
less than fifty per cent Of normal
because Of the strike, Ford off
cials say that for the fiscal year,
which ends July 31st, they will
have attained the million mark of
production.
During the strike, material was
brought in by trucks, boats, cleo
trio freight and every other pos
sible way, but it served mainly
to keep Ford men at work, rath-
er than to maintain any sem
Dlance of the regular output. As
sembled cars were shipped by wa
ter where possible, but most Of
hem were driven from Detroit to
