THE WIDOWS MITE

At this season of the year it is customary
for everyone to become imbued with the spirit
of kindness to all humanity 1t is no doubt one
of the things which comes to us, from the many
years of observing the time of birth of Jesus
Christ Since first the time was commemorated
by ceremonies of a religious nature, until this
very day. all people of the christian faith, turn
their thoughts to others. Especially is this true
among those who have prospered in their daily
occupation. 1t seems to bring these desire to
do something-without receiving earthly reward
which will be an ease to their conscious in their
every day life.
There should be more of the brotherhood of
man during the 365 days of the year. Those who
can help Others should select, not just this season
of the year-but regular intervals throughout
each year, for the very duties which they desire
to perform at Christmas. Many families, through
no fault of the members, are in destitute circum-
stances all the year around. They usually are too
proud to let their wants be known to the average
business man in the community where they live
A constant effort upon the part of those who are
prosperous would be greater blessing to both
conditions of men, if the poor were not neglected
so long. The poor cannot eat one good meal at
Christmas time and hold out for the rest of the
year upon that alone.
Too often those who are not in what might
be called prosperous circumstances are the ones
doing most of the kindness throughout the COM
munity. It often comes to the knowledge Of some
who interest themselves in charities, that aid is
being given by some who are having hard
struggle to exist, they are dividing their small
bit with those less fortunate than themselves.
They keep the goodness they do, to themselves.
There is no parading before the public of their
gifts of food and clothing to other more needy
than themselves. Their work is known to but
q few.
AS a result Of the efforts of the Associated
Charities to learn of all who need help, and in
soliciting aid for these many interesting things
have come to the surface One such involves a
woman in BOzeman, who is struggling to earn
her own living, She has very hard task, but by
eXtreem effort and constant labor she is keep

HOW CAN 4 MAN LEARN?

MR.. GARRETT p. SERVISS, who
1N1 made himself out OF a newspa-
per man into a scientist, tells how he
recently received letter from sec
ton hand on a railroad who related
how he had taught himself astronomy
and Latin because he was interested
in the stars and the poet Virgil
This man, who described himself as
"uneducated" made the curious re-
mark. II have found that / can learn
anything that gives me pleasure"
That throws a bright light on the
whole subject of education.
At this time of the year when the
universities are turning out their
graduates by the thousands the ques-
ton of training naturally arises in the
minds of those who have sons and
daughters to prepare for the future.
Is it possible that the case of Mr..
Serviss' section hand, who found in
tellectual salvation for himself, and
by himself, is no different from that
of many who had all the advantages
of the higher education?" For their
education only really began when
they left college.
Charles Darwin, the greatest man of
science of his age, regarded the time
that he had spent at the university as
wasted
Herbert Spencer was all his life a
solitary investigator and thinker.
Thomas Henry Hanley had to
abandon his university work and earn
his living after he had passed the
first medical examination of the Uni
versity of London.
John Tyndall educated himself in
science as member of the ordinance
survey.
What is the explanation of the
careers of these four distinguished
men? Obviously it is this, that they
found it easy, as the section hand did,
to learn anything that gave them
pleasure. Much education is wasted
because men take no pleasure in it.
This, too, is surely the explanation
