Something to Think About

plOdder, sincere in his effort 10 please
others, 10 present the truth pleasant

usage of common sense. viii, through
his sanely directed energy. climb to
strategic heights.
The more you analyze success. the
stronger will become the conviction
thar il consists primarily in yielding
10 those in authority the right Of the
highway.
The result is that the men and
women who habitually DO this, who
listen To reason, who keep their feet
on the ground, can open themselves
more clearly 10 their employers. de-
vel0p more easily their natural abili-
ties and enjoy more of what makes
life truly valuable, not only in the
days Of springtime. when character is
plant and easy TO shape, but all along
the days down to the final night of
winter.

very often we cannot be positive of
the right path until we have felt our

il seems little less than absolute folly
To- start plodding along at Il snails
gait through the conservative path or
20 stumble r~eckleSSly into the dan
gers of the radicals UNEMPLOYED trail.
Much of the happiness in life is
missed by the large number who slow

is refreshing TO look about anG wit

PLEASING OTHERS

THE difficulty Of human endeavOr.
u whether II be Of mental or physi-
cai character, is not work ia a gen
eral sense. but the doing Ct work
GA n Mariner which shall prove wholly
pleasing and satisfactory To the en-
ployer.
lie wishes such work as he is pay
ing you To do. to be done in his par
ticuIar way. SO that when IL is tin
ished II will fit in accurately with his
prearranged plans, a0d produce the re-
suits he has In mind.
The man or woman who writes a
book, il he or she hopes TO make a
success OF it. must write it to amuse.
Instruct, entertain. and finally to please
fhe readers.
II the book fails in this respect, the
author falls.
All the difficulties OF life are over
come by this art OF pleasing.
And this art OF pleasing others
must Toe carried out from the highest
flight of metaphysics. down to the
loading OF a dray or the digging Of a
post hole.
IL is nOt easy To- make some ma
lures understand this. The art lies
as unseizable to their dull wits a the
solution of the fourth dimension.
The genius may be a very wonder
fui fellow. and do very many re-
msrkable things. but if he be lacking
in ability TO make people understand,
he may at some time or another in
iis caree be lacking of food and raj
ment.

THEY figured first on Raymond.
- Then Clarence. George and John
They thought somewhat of Eugene.
But none could fix upon.
Some thought was given Edward,
And quite a bit 10 James;
In fact, they were quite worried
Among So many names.
One good friend wanted Arthur.
Another wanted Paul
one uncle mentioned Asa.
Another said. NO. Saul"
Grandpa suggested William
And grandma Benjamin;
Then went the list together
And then began again.
They dwelt awhile on Peter.
On Matthew. Luke and Mark;
They argued from the morning
Until the day grew dark.
They argued long and loudly
Until one fateful DAY
They quickly got together
And named her Charlotte May.

AMERICAN FORCES GLAD
TO LEAVE GERMAN SOIL
Enlistments Are Expiring
And Men Want to Come
to Their Homes
tBy United Pre,.)

Berlin, Dec. THE American
forces in Germany are glad to go
home. 60 z
Until recently the few remaining
members, Of the American army Of
Occupation at Coblenz were satisfied
to remain. They are regular army
men and as such were satisfied to re-
MAMA such posts as the government
ordered.
Now that many Of their enlist
ments are near expiration, the sold
iers are beginning to think of Christ
mas with the folks. Prices are climb
ing. Only a few hundred American
soldiers remain. Coblentz isn't the
American center it was when thous-
ands Of khaki clad men were seen on
every street, in every hotel and cafe.
"Them days are gone forever"
according to the Amaroc, the A. F.
G.. paper. - 5T
wherever soldiers gather" the
Amarco declares, "a great deal of the
conversation is taken up with specu-
lation as to the date of our depart
ure. The cries against leaving are
not as positive as heretofore. An
excellent example of the change Of
sentiment was the attitude of the
crowd at the departure of a casual
detachment the other day. .~s
Uuon former occasions when
troops were departing they were in
variably sympathized with by those
remaining and appeared to accept
sympathy as appropriate. At the
lasa train, however, the situations
might be said to have been reversed.
Many of those on the platform ex-
pressed wish to be on the train and
no signs Of Observation-Disclosures or re-
greet were exhibited by those leaving
They were, as a whole, really glad
to be going. The reduction Of fore
es has changed the atmosphere Of
the entire community" " =
