you can turn out the work that is
valuable to the world, and for

Therefore, when I find one OF nv

who do their work perfunctoriIy. no

will never so any farther. They
are just cogs in a machine. They
will never be a dynamo that drives
the business on.
There's nothing in the world as
contagious as enthusiasm-unless il
is boredom. We catch the moods of

"A great deal is written about
why women do not oftener succeed
In business and rise to high places

| women seldom take any interest in
their work. Their real interest is
in catching a husband, and thev
are only working until they can
marry.
That's why they are more inter
ested in how they look than in the
kind Of work they turn out. When

Washington boys have two Of
the best Juvenile organizations in
the United States to help them
along in their various sports and
activities in the Boys Club and
the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation. Both organizations are
controlled by men who are con-
nected with the clubs because
they are interested in boys.
During the hot weather both
of these clubs organize outings
and camps where the members
usually spend the summer. In
some of the organizations it is
hard to get funds for outings or
camps, but in the case of the
Boys Club which was recently
organized a beneht baseball game
was played between the Wash
ington and Detroit clubs of the
American League at the local
park. The financial results
proved very gratifying and now
the club is on its feet.
The Y. NJ. c. A. is recognized
of its kind in the world. In ev-
cry town or city in the United
States some branch is organized
and ii il a great help in pro-
noting athletic sports among
the Industrial men of the

FootbaHLoon1s;
Gridiron Game
Beckons toBoys

AS the baseball season pre-
pares forIts final exit for this
year. football looms on the sport
horizon. This season will prob
ably be the biggest in the his
tory as more teams will be or
ganized.
Football is not an easy game
TO master. 1t takes more than
brute strength to carry the ball
down the field. Signals have to
be memorized and plays must be
executed with speed. 1t is not
always the big men who are the
stars of the game in the last
few years. 1t is all a matter of
skill. The game has to be prac-
tEced more than any other snort
and 1t is one of the hardest
things in the sport world to re-
member signals during a game.
The Boys Herald will publish
a series of articles written bv
some of the best-known stars in
the game, both college and pro-
fessional. Each of the authors
has won renown on the gridiron.
Whenever possible. illustrations
will be published showing the
various plays as described by
the authors.
The Boys Herald will have a
directory of its own for Junior
and midget teams and results OF
the games will be published
daily. II you are planning to
organize a football team or have
already organized one, send in
your name of the team and its
players.

your heart as we'll as ybur back
into your work to make a go of IL.
You have to love your job in order
TO turn out a good job. You have
to be interested in what you are
doing before you lie awake nights
thinking Of better ways to do IL.
In all OF my long experience I have
never seen a single individual make
a success OF anything in which he
or she was not vitality interested.
You can give a boy and girl all
the technical training that is pos

for the line you have put them in.
They may start out under the most
favorable auspices. and yet they
will fail if they are not interested
in their Job, and do not put punch
and pep into il.
And you can't do that IL what
you are doing bores you to extinc-

saddled down with the dead weight
of boredom. That is a fatal handi-
cap that makes you give up before
you even start to run the race.

MRS. BISHOP FALLS
INTO AN OLD WELL
COVERED PLANK GAVE WAY
WHILE SHE WAS GATHERING
VEGETABLES IN GARDEN.

Mrs. Tom Bishop, who lives near
Dawson on the Brentwood road, while
gathering vegetables Wednesday fell
into an abandoned well about ten feet
deep. The planks laid over the mouth
of the we'll had been placed there so
long ago that they were decayed and
partially covered with dirt, which
caused them to be overlooked.
Being unable to render aid to the
unfortunate woman the first impulse
OF the neighbors was to call out the
fire department. The men were quick
ly on the scene, quite surprised to
learn the nature OF the trouble. Their
services, however, were not needed, as
Mrs Bishop had in the meantime been
rescued from her perilous position.
She has been in a very nervous con-
dition from the shock and sustained a
badly sprained ankle, but her friends
are congratulating her that the acct
dent was not more serious.

TOM LANEY LOSES
ARM IN ACCIDENT
CUT OFF NEAR SHOULDER BY
S. A. L. TRAIN ON WHICH
HE WAS FLAGMAN.

Mr. T. NJ. Laney, resident Of
Brentwood until three years ago, when
he moved with his family to Americas,
had his right arm cut off by a train
at Helena several days ago. Mr.. Laney
is employed by the Seaboard Air Line
railroad as fagman on the passenger
train running from Helena to Column
bus, and while attempting to uncouple
cars slipped and his arm fell across
the track, the train severing the limb
a few inches from the shoulder. His
right foot was also considerably bruis-
ed. Mrs. Laney went at once to Hell
ena and expected that her husband
could return with her to Americas,
but physicians advised against moving
him.
The Terrell county friends OF this
former citizen have learned with deep
regret of the distressing accident, and
hope for his speedy recovery.
