cannot be obtained through money,

Why. there was never n period in
American history when all classes Of
people enjoyed so many Injuries as
they do today II is unfortunate that
we are ever comparing ourselves with
the other fellow, especially Of our
own class or those engaged in diff
ferent occupations. We too often
consider the other fellows job bet
ter because we do not know Of its
perplexities and irritations.
The farmer does not take enough
pride in his job. He does not real
ize all It's opportunities and too often
dwells upon the job Of the city man
who apparently has an easier one be-
cause his hours seem to be shorter
and because he wears better clothes.
Such farmers little appreciate the
struggle in the city, especially in the
large city. The eight hour day seems
shorter but they forget to take into
consideration the time expended in
going TO and from work, and the
steady grind Of the average factory
man or minor. or those engaged in
any other Of the many trades. II
the farmer would consider his free
dom, his independence. the open air.
and his occupation with its various
kinds Of work, which gives interest
and opportunity for relaxation, he
would be better satisfied. II he
only knew il. he is engaged in a
great constructive enterprise which
gives opportunity for bringing forth
splendid results from honest labor
and intelligent thinking.

THINKING

II you think you're beaten, you are;
II you think you dare not, you don't,
II you'd like to win, but think you
can't,
It's almost a oinch you won't.
II you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellows will;
It's all in the state Of mind.
II you think you're outclassed, you
are;
You've got to think big to rise;
You've got to be sure Of yourself
before
You can ever win prize.
Life's battle don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the one who thinks he can.

NEGROES MUST ORGANIZE TO

New York, n. V, March. Among

said Mr.. Pickcns, or oppression to
teach the cnslavcd or oppressed how
to organize. Indeed, ii is the policy
of slavery to keep the enslaved apart
to discourage any contact that should
