LEARN TO FORGET WRONGS

Many strive to cultivate a gooG
memory, follow courses of study
become slaves to note books.
Well it may be good to remem
Der some things, but there are
other things that it is good tC
forget.
Has a member of your family
friend, an employee done
wrong, but is repentent and eager
to start a clean page? Forget the
mistake and never mention il
again. Have you something on
another man? Forget it. Do you
know where a man has shamed
himself, a woman made a mistake,
child committed 'blunder
Forget it. Perhaps someday
someone might get something
con" you. We all live in glass
houses. It behooves us all to
keep in our breasts humble and
contrite hearts.
Some men take delight ii stor-
ing away in the pigeon holes of
their memories records of the mis-
takes Of others nr the petty
grievances committed AGAINST
themselves, when the proper time
comes for settlement. nursing re-
sentiment the while. What a fine
thing, if such should take a course
in forgetting.
"I'll get even with him" "I'm
going to pick bone with him. .
I m going to tell him where he
gets off"-these are the threats
men who are not large enough to
forget. They fill their hearts
with hatred. their souls with
anger. They eagerly rake the
past.
Can you recall any happiness
you ever experienced from get
ing even, picking a bone or even
being an over-candid friend as you
told another his faults? Most
men realize their faults and the
cases are few and far between
wherein one can correct another
and not make mess Of it. Some
times a family trouble can be
cleared up bv amiable discussion,
but it is usually best to forget it
all and start fresh. Forgetting is
the safest course.
How mothers forget. 1t is their
love that stands the test and re-
members only the best and forgets
the worst. Did you ever hear a
mother say she would get even

The home is supposed to be the
backbone of civilization. 1t was
in the days of our grand fathers,
and it should be in our day. But
is it? How many real homes do
we find in these days-homes with
mother who spends lot of
thoughtful care in the rearing of
her children-homes with a wife
who looks after the best interest
of her. husband, mends his
clothes, darns his socks, and gets
him three square meals a dayf
Let me tell you that such homes
are becoming pathetically fewer
every day. If we could only
have more of them we would have
less of Bolshevism and It's kindred
