Why should our hearts be dullerf
Sorrow and the scarlet leaf.
Sad thoughts and sunny weatherI

WHY MEN FAIL

Men fail for various reasons little and big.
 Most men fail because they are lazy.
 To be lazy means--to be late, to be slovenly, to be a poor economist of time, to shirk responsibility.
 It means to say of anything that is clamoring to be done: No, I'm not going to do that. because it isn't my work"
 Laziness is at the back of most of the lesser reasons for failure. The minor causes are derivatives from that one great major cause.
 1t is so easy to dream in the sun and let the world go by% to dawdle and procrastinate, till one wakes up-too late.
 Late and lazy are, in fact, first cousins.
 If you are late, you waste other peoples time as well as your own.
 Lazy people have all the time there is, and yet they haven't time to be polite. They disdain the forms of ceremony that sweeten life.
 They are grouchy, surly, gruff. It pains them to be pleasant, to say thanks and to smile.
 Therefore they remain under lings.
 There is plenty of room at the bottom for the boy who never has learned to be polite.
 To be deferential is not to be servile. It is merely to be decently respectful.
 The biggest men are the most unassuming.
 It is the insignificant people who fluff themselves up with false and foolish pride and are forever orat- ing from the flimsy and slippery platform of their own touchy dig nity.
 Failure is generally elective. It rests with the man himself to de- eide whether he cares enough for success to pay the price.-Philadel- phia Public Ledger.

Electrically

Marianna today is at the crossroads of electrical development. It is question of whether to go forward or stand still At this very moment the electrical industry is suffering from arrested develop ment.
 We believe that there is question the daily problem of food clothing and shelter, which is so vital to the welfare of the people.
 Upon the development of the electrical industry depends the extension of facilities for lighting and household convenences; the spread of education and the further progress of civilization
 We have come to think of the electric light the normal lighting for every home We like to think that the women of Marianna no longer compelled to do the drudgery of the homethat electric power has taken large part of the load from their should CTS. The fact is that large majority here still reading under smoky coal oil lamps, and electric vice wires are at their doors. Did you go into home that is using coal oil? What did it affect you like? God gives us pure air to breathe it is sary for our health Then why pollute this air with the foul fumes of coal oil lamp, and final recourse to drugs to regain the health that these fumes have robbed you of There is peSty of gold in this world but all that does you any good is what you have in your pocket. Air is free but you only breathe a certain amount of it. Then why not have that amount of air PURE?
