gFessional district fed ciations, four ci-

at their initial contribution to Great

Falls Industrial School for mountain
boys and girls.
The work day may imply the Civ

organization chooses its own method
but III every case it means the rails

boys and girls coming out of their
isolation in the mountains of North
Georgia to learn. Unlike the children
in sections where schools are more
easily available and education is con-
Sidered a matter of course, the noun

There is no room. But giving and get

TEACHING HONESTY

The president of the National Surety
Company of New York recently ad-
dressed letter to list of school sup
erlntendents all over the United States,
asking them to establish weekly talks
IN their schools on the subject of hon
csty, in the effort to convince the chill
dren that honesty is the best policy.
A good many school authorities have
consente to make this arrangement.
The appeal pointed out the tremdous
crime wave that is spreading over
the country, and spoke of the necessity
OF taking steps to counteract it.
There are many Young people tolav
who have no conception of the neces-
sity of square dealing. No effort has
been made to show them that honesty
pays They read in the newspapers
about thhe work of bandits and bur
glars, and some of them reach the
conclusion that thieving furnishes a
short cut to prosperity
While the schools have almost too
many subjects to deal with now. vel
they must always be ready to give
some time to such fundamental idea
when the need of emphasizing it comes
up. Honesty is such Fundamental
idea: A period of few moments each
week, given to talks by the teacher
with instructions to the children tc
tnd and recite instances that honest,
pays, ought to be useful in giving the
pupils correct point of view.
| Such lessons should not be haphaz
ard, or be taken up by teacher with
out the right kind of preparation. Som,
text book should be issued and uset
giving illustrations that would max,
the subject interesting to children
with concrete instances out of rea
life showing that honesty pays.
Education is useless unless tht
young person gets these foundation
principles. The educated crook is NOR,
dangerous than an ignorant one. Tht
Leader Enterprise would be glad if tn,
schools of Fitzgerald could take III
this subject regularly and very Iikel,
they do so already

The subject for next Sundays les

Text: AS ye would that men should
do to you, do ye also likewise; Luke
6-3l. The Golden rule. The golden
duty is embodied in the law of love.
1t not only calls for love but demands
that love be extended even to our en-
emics. 1t requires that we do good
to those that hate us, bless those that
curse us, and pray for those who NAL
treat us. What else but love can lead
to such length.
The golden rule is the law of life
the whole OF our conduct manward
viii be above reproach if it is squared
by the golden rule No higher rule OF
conduct toward others has ever beer
or can be given. The golden rule c?t-
ample illustrates divincly the law Of
service. He who loves his enemie!
and therefore does good unselfishly
and lends to others hoping for nt
gain, he it is who shall have grea
reward both in this life and in the
life to come.
We need to be careful to do kind
ness in kind way. 1t was said of ont
posed as a pattern OF humility Ye,
he is willing enough to wash another,
feet, but he will use scalding water.
We need not be afraid of loving
too much if only our love has in i
the vital power which causes it t.
gush forth upon all, especially thoss,
who need il most The best Wav t(
