BADGES OF SUCCESS.

A recent writer in the Atlantic Monthly COM
ments on the fact that boys and girls in school
work for funny little things called marks"
How about the men and women who work
for funny bits Of paper called dollars?
There is habit in motives as in everything
else, and people who have sought marks or dol
lars for the things that go with them may
come to seek them for themselves. But
originally and normally the marks and the dol
lars are sought only as means to ends or
badges Of success; and the teacher or employer
who forgets what gives them value is bound
to make mistakes
There are four great ends that person will
naturally work for:
Flor the mere fun of doing-of being a
cause and proving ones power, whether he
makes mud-pies and bonfres or books and
fortunes This is the motive back Of play and
it gives zest to work
2-To satisfy his needs and cravings for such
things as food and warmth and shelter and
sleep,
3--To gain and maintain mate and a
family.
4-For the good of the larger group that he
belongs to and an honorable place within it.
These ends may not be clearly conscious, but
the urge Of them is there; and, though one may
be sacrificed for another, ones satisfaction
with his work in life depends on the degree to
which it tends to satisfy them all

FIRING YOURSELF

An American Legion post recently conduct
ed discussion on What the War Did for Me. =
Each member was called on to say in what way
the war had influenced his life, for better or
for worse.
Many Of them spoke Of the war as a sort of
dice-boX that had"shaken them out of old ruts
Some had been square pegs in around holes
and others round pegs in square holes. Either
they were, before the war, contented with the
ruts and holes they were in or we're afraid to
get out, lest they get into something worse.
Then the war came and shook them out
Returning from the army, they were faced
with the alternative of starting life anew or

PETITION OUT TO
VACATE STREET
Main st. Property Owners
Sign Petition to Aid in
Strengthening Street.
ALIENS IN AGREEMENT

The petition asking the city council
to vacate the portion of Main street,
north of the present street bridge,
which is to be abandoned after the
new bridge is built and the street
Strengthened. was put in circulation
late Monday afternoon and this action
was taken after the mayor and city
attorney had been advised that the of
ficials of the N. R. Allen company
would probably accept the proposition
made to them by the city,
Under this proposition the city
would secure all the property of the
Allen company to the east Of the pres
ent bridge and would provide for
strengthening up the docks to the west
of the new bridge so that it would be
suited to the uses of the company.
The first signature on the vacation
petition was that Of the Allen COM
pany and George A. Yule, president
Of the Balm Wagon company, signed
for the company on the second blank
line. On the petition there must be
the signatures of the majority of
the owners of property fronting 1900
feet on Main street.
Have Assurance of Success.
II am certain that there win be no
delay in securing these signatures"
declared City Attorney John G. Slater
at the council chamber ON Monday
night, ALREADY we have secured many
signatures and do not believe that
there will be any objection on the part
Of any considerable number of proper
ty owners. We decided to proceed to
vacate the property in the old form
rather than to appeal to the railroad
commission for relief.
It was declared that when the Allen
company's officials signed the petition
for vacation that it was announced
that the company would have it's attor-
ney draw UP an agreement to be
sent to the common council. 1t was
intimated that this agreement would
concur in the proposition suggested
by the city.
No Meeting of the Council.
There was no meeting of the council
Monday evening to discuss track ele-
walton or anything else, as the city
cIeFk nero IHab no loIInhl inogloH ndu
been passed proposing such a meeting.
A dozen Of the aldermen were at the
city hall under the idea that there was
to be a meeting and they spent an hour
informally discussing the proposed
elevation Of the tracks. Most of the
aldermen present were favorable to
the city asking the railroad commits
sion for the order without any further
discussion of the matter and with the
understanding that the city would be-
satisfied with the order as handed
down by The commission and proceed
to carry it out. The council will meet
in regular session on next Monday
night and it is expected that the mat
ter will be taken up at that time.

Now the federal reserve system is under fire
and the fire proceeds from democrats as well
as republicans. Some things there are about
its financial policies which need explanation,
to say the least, and which raise the question
whether the administration has had any appre-
citation of the necessity, in the public interest,
of putting the best brains Of the country on the
federal reserve board.

in the United States for this year and for some

reason Of unsatisfactory agricultural condi-

thing to reach to it or to remedy it? Has it
really grappled with profteering or has it
shown any appreciation Of the nations agricul-
tura and foodstuffs problems?
