CHAUTAUOUA CIRCLE

"A meeting of the Pieran Chautauuua
Circle was held in the schoolroom, Sunday
afternoon, April 23rd, Pres. w. J. McC.
presiding attendance fourteen.
Following roll call and reading of the
minutes of the preceding meeting, Pres.
McC. announced that the seasons activi-
ties would terminate May 9TH, on which
date the closing meeting would be held
Members were instructed to return all
books and property of the Circle so that
the cabinet could be arranged and turned
over in complete order for the coming sea-
son.
A vote of thanks was unanimously given
to Mrs. Lydia B. Saylor, 1874 Kelly St.,
Atlanta, Ga, for her kindness in remem-
bering the entire membership with Easter
cards and for many previous thoughtful
tokens of her altruism.
The paper, Building Highways" read
by Mr.. ]. NC at the April 9th meeting
was brought up for discussion. Mr.. C.
had so thoroughly covered the subject that
no essential data was forthcoming.
Mr.. S. H. F. read an essay, "Observa-
tions and Reflections" that showed such
erudite preparation that admiration for
his scholarly attainments was evinced by
hearty applause. He later gave fifteen
minute talk on "The Works of Shakes
peare" that showed his familiarity with
English literature and incidentally re-
vealed the source from which his pro-
digious vocabulary was drawn.
Mr.. r. ]. T. gave thirty minute talk
en- Chickens" Space inhibits even an
enumeration of the many subtitles Mr.. T..
divided the subject into from egg to
chicken and chicken to egg. Which came
first nobody knows but we do know con-
siderable more about the poultry fancier
and the breeding of chickens than we did.

port and adjournment was declared.

some rain must fall. Some day must be
dark and dreary.
When such days come let us not forget
the words of the poet who said:
''Let us, then, be up and doing,
With heart for any fate;
Still achieving, still pursuing,
Learn to labor and to wait"
1t was the Hoosier poet, James Whit
comb Riley who said:
"Taint no use to grumble and complain
It's just as cheap and easy to be happy
and rejoice,
When God sorts out the weather and
sends rain;
Why, rains my choice.
And so it is in this life. Things may
not always be according to our liking,
but it will be much better to try and
adjust our lives to an infinite plan than to
run counter to high ideals and lofty pur-
poses. Live each day as though it were
the last. Crowd into today all the good
you can. Tomorrow may never come.
Life on earth will soon be over. Death
comes to all. What about the future? He
who takes care of the present need not
have any fears for the future. Prepare
for it now.

and earth. They make up the world and
furnish foothold for life. The things that
every one needs and that all of us may
have are the big things of life. We could
Mt afford to be without any of them.
Stories of our common lives told inter-
estingly are the best stories. The tales that
live and will always live are built around
common lives. Dickens knew this. The
songs that live and outlast generations are
of common human hopes and loves.
"Annie Laurie" is an instance. The
great religious songs voice common hope,
as "Rock of Ages" Common things and
common people make the world fit to live
in.
A half-dozen friends in the home of an
evening" not crowded jam of powdered
and scented humanity on exhibition;
group at the club, not an indiscriminate
gathering of strangers and half-strangers.
The family warm and comfortable about
the freside while the wind raves without
and the frost dims the window panes. A
book and pair of slippers under the
shaded lights of winter evening; the
cool shade of trees in the summer heat; the
sprinkled armament and the clear starlight
and memory; and above and beyond all
home, a common home where love and
hope exist and the freight shines on the
hearth. Common things.
Common things: The secret of content
and happiness lies with them, and those
who learn it live happily and die kindly.

A BIT OF ADVICE

This little bit of advice, published by
one of our contemporaries, is so good that
we take pleasure in reprinting it.
Do not pity yourself because of the name
some one has given you. Make name
for yourself We are the architects of our
own fortune. If you haze made mistake
in life profit by it, Do not allow your
spirit to droop and die with the setting of
todays sun. Look for the glory of tomor-
rows sunrise with thousand landscapes
all flooded with light and beauty.
Do not become soured on the world.
Be optimistic and cheerful. Do not allow
yourself to think that all the good people
have died off leaving the world and hu
manity to grope their way through un-
penetrable darkness and gloom. This is
a beautiful world in which to live. You
and l can help to adorn it by living beau
tiful lives.
When the clouds hang heavy with
darkness just remember that back of the
clouds is the sun, still shining. Thy fate
is the common fate of all. Into each life

THE COMMON AVERAGE THINGS

The best thing after all, is an average,
an average man and woman, an average
income, average children, average liyes.
And those escape notice pretty much.
They're so common. They are like three
meals day. We don't miss them until
we need them. We pay our attention to
those over and under; to the overgrown
or the understood; to the especially good
and the particularly bad to the very rich
or the very poor; to the extraordinarily
industrious and thrifty and the peculiarly
lazy and thriftless; to the upper and the
lower crusts-but between the two is the
meat of the pie. The man who gets along
and makes decent living and keeps the
kids in school and whose wife keeps their
clothes in shape and their necks and ears
clean, who lives in an average house on
an average street, get about as much no.
tice as the average sheep in big flock
But when one of the sheep develops foot
rot or loses his wool everybody takes no.
tice. Common folks are as little noticed
as the individual bricks in the wall. The
corner stone everyone sees, but the bricks
are the real wall. They hold the thing
together, keep the roof from caving in,
and afford shelter against storm and wind.
An average world is mighty good
world; anyway, it's the very best we can
have until we raise the average. The
way to raise the average is not to try to
make every brick cornerstone but to
make every brick sound and solid and
able to stand the weather. Not to make
every person rich but to encourage aver
age thrift and discourage utter poverty.
Not to make college professor out. of
every lad but to see that he knows some
thing well enough to enable him to aver
age up with the rest of ordinary folks
The surest way to raise the average is by
a pry under the bottom. The ground
floor is of more importance than the stee-
pie. We use it most and need it more.
And the more we hoist it the higher it
goes toward the top. Getting a higher
average isn't to be done by cutting down
the steeple but by prying the bottom up.
Pulling down doesn't raise the average.
The average people are the world. We
don't notice them much more than the
diurna whirl of the globe, but they keep
us going in prosperity and decency just as
the motion of the globe by the day and
year keeps it in the armament. They are
great people. Those average folks who
are raising the average.
Let's take little more notice of them.
They're worth looking over and studying.
The most important things in the world
arc the common things. The three COM
monest things in the world are air, water

merous stores and private business
houses did not conform to the new

order the hands of the clock moved
