LLANo'S YOUNG FOLKS
BY Chss. M. De Puy

AS newcomer here, I'm fortunate
in recalling the advice Of old Senator
Quay to General Beaver, when the lat
ter was candidate for the governor
ship Of Pennsylvania, 10 Wit: Dear
Beaver. don't talk" So, I'll limit my
self 10 a very few words. I'm too new
here TO have learneI much that would
Justify me in saying this and that is
true and 'tother is not,
However, | wish to say something
about the young folks. | never saw
"a healthier bunch anywhere else. They
are bright, well ordered and well fed
Their environment is the best in Amer
lea. They are developing brains built
upon realities. No preachers and
priests are here to stuff them with
bunk and superstitions. No teachers
to inculcate lies, nor to fill them with
thought of selfishness, or to delude
them with IDEAS Of an even race for
wealth and preferment. Its almost
worth while for an old fellow like me
to want to father new crop Of kids in
such surroundings. | went out Of higth
school SO years ago on the first day
of May and started into police court
on daily paper. Il took me
nearly 40 years Of life to realize the
truths that these boys and girls are
learning from. the start Of their lives.
Here they can find and are helped
to find what they are best fitted to do
for the best interest of Llano Colony.
and here and there some will develop
such special fitness for some particular
line that undoubtedly viii cause the
Colony, when able, TO place them where
they may obtain a technical education.
Il think it would Be good idea. every
now and again. to take bunch Of these
young people to the larger cities on
sightseeing tours, to let them see what
other people are up against; to let
them learn Of the worlds futile efforts,
how their fellow beings are up as
against stone wall, bucking out their
brains and destroying their bodies in
futile effort in endeavoring TO get
somewhere. They would come back
here wiser. and pitch in for the success
Of the Colony.
Truly the biggest asset, the greatest
guarantee that will spell for the per
manency Of the Colony, the rock upon
which it must stand, is the young ele-
ment we have here; and for their fu-
ture I'm glad to work hard and with
them learn what is best for all Of US
as we here dwell together in unity.

STICK IT OUT

When yonr worlds about 10 fall
And your backs against the wall,
When you're facing wild retreat and utter rout;
When it seems that naught stop it.
All your pleas and plant can't stop ,s
Get grip upon yourself and stick it out
Any craven fool can quit
But man with pluck and grit
Will hold until the very final shout;
In the snaring teeth Of sorrow
He will laugh and say Tomorrow
The luck will change : y guess Ill stick il cut
The luck does change you know it.
All the records prove and show it.
And the men who win are men who strangely doubt
Who hesitate nor swerve
Who have grit and CUTS and nerve.
And whose motto it-Play hard. and stick it cut.
So you, when things go wrong
And you think you cant last long,
That you've got to quit wait the final bouts
Smile, smile at your beholders
Cench your teeth and square your shoulders,
And fight You'll win if YOU but stick out!
