None OF us are impressed with

there's nothing to stop him from
growing into his maturity.
Whether he reaches his stature
with a capability that will enable
him to assume the responsibility of
citizenship, or whether he just drifts
in aimlessly, is the big factor in our
community economy.
The boy has four critical periods
that he must pass through before he
stands up and exhibits the stuff
that's in him.
Some one has divided his life in
to four seven year periods. That
brings the full manhood to twenty
eight years. You can't make a man
out of boy and stop off at twenty
one. no more than you can make a
seasoned draft horse at a three-year-
old.
From one 10 seven years any boy
is pretty good. He is the constant
companion of his mother in this
first period and her influence is akin
20 The divine.
His second seven year period car
res him 10 fourteen years. In this
second seven years he breaks loose
from ;he apron strings. He goes
down on the mill lot. He stands
around where men congregate. He
hears much that he should not hear.
he hears profanity, obscenity, and
course vulgarity. Men have not
learned 10 restrain their converse in
the presence OF the impressionable
boy.
From fourteen TO twenty-one is
the danger period. II is also the
snart-aleck period, for the average
boy in his teens thinks what he
doesn't know is OF small importance.
Sound advice TO him is about ninety
per cent sound AID ten per cent
advice.
II is the period when he pushes
!Or0&Iity aside. IL is the period in
which be keeps late hours. 1t is al
50 The period of anxiety for the
mother, and the period Of indiffer-
eDee for the father.
Unfortunately, just when the faith
sr should chum with his boy, shap-
ing mis- thought and conduct, he
nanifests his greatest Indifference.
The father ofttimes chides the moth

Farmer Tames Wild Ducks.

AS rule, it is difficult to wean wild
life from it's love of wild environment.
and the wild instinct is handed down
to several generations of descendants.
That fact makes rather notable the
successful experiment of Mr.. w. +.
Smith, a farmer of North Vancouver,
B. G. He has captured wild ducks
that make his farm their home, al
though they have enjoyed freedom
for some time, and their young are
even more domesticated than ordinary
domestic ducks.
Three years ago Mr.. Smith bagged
two Mallard ducks in a wounded con-
dition and nursed them back to health.
The ducks returned the kindness with
regular contributions of eggs, and Mr..
Smith has been in position to enjoy,
irrespective of closed seasons and
game laws, Mallard duck and Mallard
eggs as regular item of his family

Don't Waste Sympathy.

AS a big twin-six pulled up along
side a rail fence in one of the poorest
counties in a certain state, the driver
asked the farmer who was blowing in
the field: "Am / on the right road to
the county seat?"
The farmer had no more than an
swered ''yes" when there came an
other question from one Of the seven
passengers: MY good man, are you
able to make a living off land like
this?''
AS the farmer wiped the sweat off
his brow, he replied: "Yes, and now
before you start to pity me, | just
want to tell you don't waste your
sympathy on NE. There is fellow on

MUTE FOR THIRTY-TWO YEARS
French Beggar Breaking Long ST.
Ience, Voices Poor Opinion of
Majority of Fellow Men.

Silently, for he was rated as a deaf
of old Notre Dame, in Paris, and
asked aims of passers-by. He was a
beggar, but a keen observer and bit
of philosopher Also Tall and gaunt,
he left lasting impression on all
who passed. Thus in the 80 years
during which he worked at his trade
of beggar in the same neighborhood
he became a widely-known character,
although he had never done anything
except ask aims with gesture.
From time to time the police ar
rested him and charged him with
mendicancy, but each time the doc
tors examination indicated that he
was deaf and dumb.
The other day new policeman was
put on the beat. He did not know
rested him. But the inspector prompt
ly ordered his release. 1--WE know him
WE'LL" he explained to the new police
man. 'The poor fellow is deaf and
dumb"
To his amazement. the beggar re-
piled to him, saying:
Il am sorry to contradict you, in
spector, but I can speak and hear as
well as you. During the 80 years that
/ have kept silence and earned my
livelihood by maintaining this decep-
ton, | have seen and heard so many
lies and so much harshnesS and hy-
pocrisy that / am determined for once
to give vent to my feelings, even II
/ have to go to prison for it. / shall
at least be able to say that / have
told the truth once during my life.
And that is the last thing shall ever
say"
The man then resumed his silence
and nothing has induced him to break
1t again. Inquiries showed that dur
ing his 80 years of silence he had
learned" a comfortable little fortune
and was on the point of retiring.
