plies with equal force and certainty
to brave women; to brave boys and
girls who, in their faith and persist
ency adhere firmly to right purposes
and keep ever pressing forward, re-
fusing always to admit defeat.
If it were not for these courageous
people, the world would soon drift
into a state of deplorable ignorance,
helplessness and poverty.
How strong and capable is the
adroitly sailed ship on the sea OF
life, with her white canvas bulging
as she booms on to the distant

If in adverse winds and pounding
storms the navigator should throw

There Is entrusted to you by the
Creator full command of the wonder

at the end Of life's voyage you are
expected to bring safely into the har-

You must not shirk this great re-
sponsibility.
You must not cry impossible"
lose heart or enthusiasm.
You must perform your whole duty
with unfailing precision, whether sail
ing under clear skies or beneath domes
blurred with leaden clouds driven by

There are men who want new wives,
when they have perfectly good wives
at home. They don't need them, and
therefore ought not to want them.
There are other men who want
wealth, when they don't need wealth
at all.
Still other men want steam yachts
when rowboats would do them more
good, and private swimming pools
when they would get more fun and
health out of public baths In the
ocean.
They may get these things, but they
will be no better off when they do get
them.
The wanting habit can grow into q
very bad habit indeed unless you are
careful to want what you need.
1t Is we'll to remember In this con-
nection that there are some very im-
portant needs that you ought to want
first Of all.
One of them is a good reputation.
Another Is good health. A third Is
home. =
Want these badly enough to get
them, and confine your wants after
that to things that are reasonably GER
tain to bring happiness.
Then want as hard as you like, and
your wanting will not hurt you. .,
But wanting to be ''moVie" star
when you were born to be a furniture
salesman, or to be a Caruso when you
were born 10 be an accountant. Will
only make you UNHAPPY. y
You won't get either of these things,
even by wanting them, and you Win
spend very unhappy life in the ef-'
fort.
Want what you need and you VIII be
reasonably sure to get 1t, II you begin
young enough. But don't want what
you don't need. 1t will only make You
miserable for life, even though you
attain the object of your desires.

SOMETHING TO
THINK ABOUT

By F. A. Walker

in circles, unmindful Of our duties,
we need every day to be reminded
of what lies beyond-the treacherous
rocks that we must shun; the tenn
pests of our own making that must
be avoided and the whirlpools Of the
evil one.
Many souls have gone down on
the jagged reefs Of bad habits; many
others have been ruthlessly swept
overheard by sudden whirlwinds OF
temper or lashed to pieces by storm
ing tongues.
All along the shore Of adventure
from adolescence to old age, the lone
beaches are strewn with wrecks of
humans who never learned to sail
the Souls Ship, who never sought the
peaceful harbor because they Stub
bornly refused to recognize "the pos
sibility of writing on the eternal skies
the record Of q heroic life.'

Uncommon Sense
By JOHN BLAKE
WANT WHAT YOU NEED

PHILOSOPHERS tell US we cen
have anything we want, provided
we want 1t enough.
With certain qualifications this Is
true. It explains why many men get
things out Of life that their friends
never expected to get. They wanted
them, and they got them.
Getting things in that way for most
people involves considerable sacrifice.
For example, If dry goods clerk
wants an automobile he may get 1t,
but he will have to skimp pretty
heavily on his clothes and diet If he
gets 1t while he still remains dry
goods clerk.
It is for this reason that, when you
begin wanting something, 1t will pay
you to want what you need.
That will involve thought, for none
of us know what we need until we de-
vote considerable time to reflection
and study.

UNCLE PETE.

IT'S maltese used to come and rub
Her coat against his leg;
He had dog, mongrel scrub,
He taught to sit and beg;
The horses used to Whitney when
They saw him on the street;
The children ran from other men
To play with Uncle Pete.
He was a sort Of village joke
Who tinkered here and there,
And always poor, and always broke,
And yet he didn't care.
The banker used to sit and frown
And growl like anything;
But half the way across the town
You'd hear old Peter sing.
Folks said he was failure, yes,
He hadn't any sense
To 90 through life in idleness
And make no competence.
Now, what do you think?-what they
About a "failureY Do
You think the folks who shook their
head
Had estimated true?
Me? Well, I think that they, were
right.
Pete had q brother Pat
Who was, like him, the kids delight
And loved by dog and cat.
Besides all that Pat worked his land,
Raised hogs and corn and wheat,
Provided for his family, and
Supported Uncle Pete

After several years of successful
starring in dramas of the smart set,
Alice Brady has turned a sudden
right-about-face, and in a wonder
fully simple, appealing tale of hum
BILE people and their grim fight with
poverty and disbursement, has
achieved perhaps the finest role of
her whole screen career.
THE Land of Hope" which opens
n three day run tomorrow at the
Strand theatre, is the new play. 1t
is a collaboration by the famous
comedy-writing Hattons. Frederick
and Fannie, with Robert Milton in
the story construction, and Fred
Myton lending his experienced hand
at the scenario preparation. +. ii.
Griffith directed the piece.
The play presents Miss Brady in
the role of a Polish immigrant girl,
who, with a group of humble folks
from her native village, seeks her
fortune in America. The girl Marya,
and her lover, Sascha, both quaint,
wistful, appealing figures of repress-
ed youth and timid hope, are the
oldest and most interesting pair OF
lovers who have been seen on the
screen in some time.
The pathetic youngsters think all

But alas for youthful optimism and
ignorance, they have many difficult
ties and Establishments before
them. They learn hat the Statue
of Liberty is not made of solid gold,
and that the busting new world nei-
Their needs nor needs them. In the
swift currents of life in which they
find themselves struggling they are
soon swept apart and almost sub
merged.
