''What are you going to save for,
Nancy" asked Nick. do you expect
to be a penny millionaireT'
"What In the world is that?" asked
Nancy.
II thought perhaps you were try.

Of a million dollars so you would be
a millionaire of pennies.~
Nancy and daddy laughed But Nick
said
$50 on, Sis, want to hear"
''I'm, going to put my pennies In

going to give them to some farm for
city children. Daddy gave to one

going to try to do my own share this
year. We have a country home but
there are lots of children in the city
who can't have the country unless
someone helps TO pay their expenses"
Great !" said Nick That's the right
idea. Wen, my resolutions don't sound
so fine beside yours. But here is one
I've been thinking that sometimes
there are children in the hospital here,
and that 1t would be nice If once a
week we went to see them and showed
them our story books, and took them
some of our toys, played games with
then-duiet games like Jack Straws.
In the springtime we could take any
sick children we knew of some
flowers. for 1t must be awfullv hard to
be sick in the spring. And at Easter
time we could take them chocolate
Dummies!
I've planned to save some of my
pennies for the Dummies and sometimes
for an extra treat we might take tine
sick children. And I've also made a
resolution to never tease anyone or
anything smaller than myself, for
that's mean"

OBITUARY
THEODORE POPE.

Theodore Pope, 10 year old sor
son of Mr. and Mrs W. I. Pope
departed this life at Laurel Hospital
on January %. 1922, after suffering
for some time from a shot he re.
ceived in the foot.
After all had been done for Theo-
dore that father. and mother could
do, at last the end came. So in the
last part Of his life he talked with
father and mother aud said he wan
ted to live and requested his smothe r
TO join him in prayer, so they prayed
together and at last seeing the end
was near be informed his father that
there was a better place than this tor
him.
When / think how sad it must
have been to that father and mother
TO sit by the bedside of that precious
boy and see him trying to talk until
the last, yet when / hear those words
of an assurance of Heaven. then we
say. Weep not father, mother, Sis
ter, brother, for Theodore as he now
rests in the bosom of God, but lift
your eyes off the vacant chair and
the ifeless form and behold Theo-
dore in Heaven.
AS the writer stood over the cas-
ket and looked into Theodore's face,
[ don't think | ever looked into a
brighter face. 1t seemed to shine
with all the glory that Heaven could
furnish.
So while it was sad to part with
Theodore here on earth, Father,
Mother and family prepare for that
day when that great meeting will
be when God will wipe all tears
from our eyes and sadness will be
turned into joy.

LIES new YEAR
Our Being Not Transitory, but
an Eternal Possession.
Time Has Very Little to Do With the
Fundamental Things of Our
Existence.

U. lie serious thing is, not that
| EllSyfz=1ll life is or may be short. but
\ GSSy4sA that it may be wasted OF
tSlYE& mlsused-indeed is likely
ll=gs-sA-lI TO be so In most cases
There are few men in whom
there is not something Of the Stacker
and yet there is so much TO do Others
are not slackers, but only because they
have no sense Of responsibility. and
are conscious of no OBLIGATION. To
these the sudden realization that time
is passing swiftly by comes with ter
Tifying eGrect-when it comes at all
1t was these that the Psalmist had il,
mind when he wrote:
'Yet they think that their houses
shall continue forever: and that their
dwelling places shah endure from gem
Grafton to generation; and they cali
their lands after their own names.p
So it is harder to live nobly ana
bravely than 1t is to die CALAMITY in
defense of righteous cause at the
call of country. This is, of course. in
no way surprising. Yet the obligation
Is the same in both cases. for in Noth
ii is question Of being loyal to duty,
sensitive to the promptings Of what
is best in human nature. If time is
short the wise thing is, not as the Ro-
man poet suggested, to use it reck.
lessly and to the utmost in mere en-
joyment, but to build it into the fu-
ture self which is being realized with
the passage of each day Life thus
used is not transitory, but rather an
eternal possession, something of which
a man cannot be deprived And tAat
of course, is the moral of New Years
DAY II is an old moral, and yet ever
new-new every morning. Indeed
practically the whole of religion, as
applied to daily life. is summed up
in it. For religion, even more than
culture, is "the study OF perfection
and 1t speaks of, and was meant to
further, the progress from imperfec-
ton TO perfection
He who has been ''made perfect In
a short time has, as has been seen,
fulfilled long time" "And an I'M
spotted life is old age.'' On the other
hand, the man who dies in wickeGness
dies in his youth ever though he live
far beyond the scriptural term. Time
therefore, has very little to do witt
the fundamental things of life.

daddy, and he settled back in his
chair.

What is that?' asked daddy.

that some one will see that really

that mother has to hurry the breakfast
or that NICK has to get my books

II have known that someone would

selfish about 1t. That's all. That's

Nick smiled, for he knew how often
he had gotten Nancy's books ready.
Not that he minded. hut still he
thought it was fine of Nancy to try
70 do something which would be hard
for her to do, He krew that she

noted for his ability of gambling
and shooting.
n AS luck would have it, he came
to the Red Bar saloon just as John.
ny had started a game.
Blue Diamond walked into the sa-
loon, his hat cooked to one side;
and his right hand on his gun.
He slowly walked over to the ia
BILE where Johnny was playing.
Say, stranger, what do you say
"a a little gamer"
At this Johnny arose to his feet
and said in gruff voice:
DO you think you can play
against Johnny Brown"
"Well, l reckon kin go you "A
round" replied Blue Diamond.
So each took their places at the
table and the game began.
The first half of the game went
very smooth until Blue Diamond be-
gan to win. AS soon as Johnny saw
the tables turn, he made use Of all
the tricks he could think Of First
he slipped a king, then a queen, a
heart, spade, but without avail.
well, pardner, reckon we bet
ter he quitting If you want any mon
ey when you leave here"
Johnnys fists clinched together
and his face twitched with hate.
"If you think you can cheat noe
out of my money you're off,"
All the bystanders stood in awe
at the scene which had just taken
place.
well. old Top, have you got any
more money to lose?'-
At this Johnny jumped up and
pounding his fists on the table cried
out:
'D-A-M-- youl I've got one
dollar left but I'll still play"
At this bold reply Blue Diamond
smiled in sneering way and said:
I'll play my whole pile against
your one dollar, so throw her
down."
At this sneering reply Johnny
threw the dollar on the table and
started to play like he never played
before.
AS AS the last cards were play
ed every one standing near by held
their breath. But there was no
aeed, for Johnny played royal
flasher and took every cent of Blue
Diamonds money.
Blue Diamond drew his gun and
fired a shot but missed. Johnny in
stantly drew his gun and fired, but
Blue Diamond lodged and the lights
" ere put out.
The fight which followed was
horrible. Several shots were fired !
