Patriotism.

OCAolu
(The best reproduction from "Lit-
tie Talks on Great Things" in Comp
toms Encyclopaedia
Patriotism is the love of home.
Home is the one orner of the world
that is ours, that love and cherish.
The thought of home will move YOU
when you are far, far away. Home is
the shrine of all that is noblest and
happiest and best. So when we call
our country, homeland, it is more than
a name. Our country'is second mother
to us and we should love it as we do
u mother. "Breathes there a man
with soul so dead, that never to him
self hath said, This is my own, my
native land?'"
1t is our country who has given US
freedom. We appreciate our W coun-
try when we contrast it with Mexico.
Mexico has rich and good
climate but no supervision. 1t is then
we appreciate the value of govern
ment. 1t is ourselves who make the
nation, not officers or officials. 1t is
those who made up the nation who
gave US freedom and liberty. Our
country has opened it's gates to let
truth knowledge flow in. 1t has
made it impossible for tyrants to
rule us.
Patriotism is the desire to make
your country the best. One is not a
true patriot who says, "My country
right or wrong" The best way to help
a country is to help it do right. We
should not be satisfied if our country
is not the best. Fortunately for us,
our country abolished slavery. If the
Civil War had not been won, the prin-

Ambition.
What are we going to do in this
world when we grow up? Many peo-
pie would give all they had to live
fifty years from now. The road to
fame begins at the school house.
There are more opportunities now for
boys and girls and the path is great
ly widening. The prizes are for those
who seek them. We should all seek
success. We should make up our mind
to become something. The great task
is to prepare in the days of our youth
for our life through the world.
What then are the qualifications we
need most in our way through the
world? We should have a definite
purpose to do something worth while.
Some people say it is wrong to have
high ambitions. Do not believe this.
We should have high ambitions and
plan to do something worth while.
Emerson once said, "Let US hitch our
wagon to a star" If we have high
ambitions but do not make anything
of it, it does US no good. We are right
to be ambitious for success, to aim
for the road Of prosperity.
There arg two classes of people
Those who Keep their country's honor
bright and those who spoil it's name.
A sure recipe for failure is as fol-
lows: An
A carelesseschool life,
Wasted evenings,
Bad reading, f
Unsuitable desire for sport and
amusement, and :.
Living from the age of fifteen and
twenty without a definite idea of what
you are going to do.
That recipe never fails to bring
failure. It will disappoint your friends
and parents. Hundreds of men in poor
houses and prisons will give you that
recipe.
A recipe for success that will make
your father and mother and friends
proud Of you is as follows:
A well spent youth,
Healthy amusements,
Evenings of recreation and study,
Good reading and good companions,
A definite idea of what you mean
to be and a belief that you can win
or succeed.
We all a have knowledge and en-
thusiasm if we try. "As you think,
so you are" said a wise man of sci
ence.
There are many kinds of failure. A
few fail from circumstances beyond
their control, but most people fail
from sluggishness, vice, laziness and
bad habits. Most failures may be
traced to one thing-boys or girls
shutting their eyes to their opportun-
tiles. We must have determination. 1t
does you no good to have ideas if you
don't carry them out. Be bold and
courageous and do not be afraid if
you make a mistake. A man of sue
cess once said, "a mar that never
made a mistake lever made anything"
Be capable and be afraid of nothing
but evil.
Bite off more than you can chew
Then chew it.,
Plan for nor than you a do
Then do it,
But hitch your wagon to a STAR
and take your seat,
And there you are."-Bertha We
dunn.

With Apologies to Abraham Lincoln.
Three score and seventeen days ago
March 10) the eighth grade brought
forth upon these pages a new notion,
conceived in playfulness and dedicated
to the proposition that all Peptimists
are born journalists. Now we are en-
gagged in writing our last newspaper
items proving that that notion so con-
ceived and so dedicated did not long
endure. We have all enjoyed writing
these items. We should like to dedi-
cate a portion of this paper to those
who will next year in this grade spend
their lives but on a second thought,
they could not emulate, they could not
initiate, they could not parallel us
Peptimists.
Such wonderful items wise and 9TH
erwise as you have read here it would
be impossible for our successors to
transcribe. The world would little note
nor long remember what they might
say here but it can never forget what
we have written here. 1t is rather for
us, the Peptimists, to decide here that
in u high school years US, we take
increased devotion to these columns
to which we are now contributing our
last full measure of devotion this year.
That we here highly resolve that this
notion shall not have died in vain but
that these items next September shall
have a new note of pepfulnses and that
paragraphs by the Peptimists of the,
Peptimists and for the Peptimists
shall not vanish from these pages.

MIR. Grathwell Writes to His Pepti-
mist Friends.
Some time ago we wrote letters to
Mr.. Samuel Grathwell, the real Pep
timist, who lectured here in Febru-
airy, and who was responsible for our
adopting the name of Peptimist as
II class lame. We told him all about
u organization and the good time
we have had. We sent him some of
u newspaper items, too. Although
we hardly expected him to write us,
we all wished he would and last Mon
day our wishes were granted for we
had a long letter. He said that when
he first opened our letters and saw
that most of them were signed by the
Fair Sex" he thought that the Old
Ladies Sewing Circle or the Bachelor
Maids Club of Glasgow had written
him to contribute to some fund, "but
imagine my surprise" he wrote, "when

ored me! The night previous l had

PARIS, October 26.-The seriousne ess

exchange rates, including the Spanish

Gates q diminuition Of confidence due
to the fear that the collapse OF the
mark and the disinciination of Great
Britain and the United States to seek
a general reparations settlement with
France may impel France to occupy
the Ruhr region.
Some economists seem to cnviSa-e
the possibility OF Il continued de-
cline in certain exchanges hitherto
relatively stable. There are believed
|" he two possibilities in saving the
situation. One is by the stAbiliZa-
tion of the mark.
The reparationS commission is going
to Berlin with this more or less In
mind. but well informed observers
are skeptical of results. The other is
the indication of a Willingness on the
part of the United States and Great
Britain to seek with France gen.
eral settlement of the problem of
debts and reparations. not on the
basis of France alone making a sacri-
flee. but on the basis of a common
sacrifice. Here again there is a gen.
eral skepticism. although more Is ex-
pected from Great Britain than from
the United States.
Meanwhile, pending the outcome of
the British and American elections
the French government has become
almost ominously silent regarding its
intentions. Premier Poincare will un-
doubtedly continue to seek i general
settlement for weeks TO come. but
should these conciliatory efforts fail
he is committed absolutely to separate
action.

Germany Names Foreign Experts

olution to Germany, again may prove

the republic. in the opinion of news
paper commentators. discussing stimuli
taneous announcements that Germany
has invited foreign financial experts
here to advise her on the question OF
stabilizing the mark and that the
reparacions commission also is coming

developments in Germany's turbulent

that the government invitation to

clever political move, since the affairs
to be dealt with are such as the for
eign countries will take hand in
anyway. The fact that representa-
asked to look over conditions for
themselves. the journal adds. will
make it easier for Germany later to
oppose financial supervision.

rings like a bad joke to hear that at
the very moment when the fall in the
mark has driven German finances to
the edge of an abyss the reparations
commission, under the initiative Of

head over the question how to squeeze
