Senator Fearon and approved the two

whelming majorities. The vote on the
amendment was SO to 81 and on the
Lusk bills ~ to and as to Z. The
Socialists bitterly attacked all three
measures.
The Fearon amendment requires that
all future voters must be able to read
and write. Having passed a pre-
vious Legislature. II goes 10 the people

bills are aimed at disioyai teachers and
schools that teach the doctrine of revolu-

which sanction criminal anarchy. The
other requires all teachers to secure

OUR EVERYDAY CHANCE.

Here is a true story of every
day life that contains sermon
for every adult person in thi.
town.
Two families lived side by side
One home was childless. In the
other were two little boys. The
younger boy was as sweet as ever
child was made, and was petted
and coddled by the neighbors.
The older one felt his isolation
keenly, but said little. He became
morose and self willed, and was
a trial to his parents.
One day the younger one died,
and the neighbors grieved. But
there was no petting for the re.
naming boy, because he had not
been petted during the life of his
brother. He too, grieved, but his
disposition did not change.
The neighbor sat in his home
one night thinking of the future
Of the remaining child. He won
dered if he had been quite fair
with it, and concluded that he
had not. The next time he saw
the little fellow. he was kind and
gentle with MIN. He gave him
the same attention he had given
his brother. Soon he detected a !
change, and in the course of a
few MONTHS there was a wonder
full transformation. The morose-
ness gradually disappeared, and
was replaced by a sunny DISPOSE
ton.
Not all due to the neighbor, of /
course, but it had its effect. It'll
aided in removing the gloom that
clouded the infantile brain and
brought his better qualities to the
surface.
There are little children
around us of this community each
day. They are as sensitive ito in
difference and neglect as the boy
whose story we have told. What
ire we doing to put the sunshine
# happiness into their lives?
