ABRAHAM LINCOLN

1t is unfortunae that we canno
celebrate more fittinly the birthday
of Abraham Lincoln, one of the
greatest men in the history of the
United States. We can, however, at
least read over his life and perhaps
better our own by so doing.
Many of us give up too easily
and think that we can never make
name for ourselves simply because
our financial condition is not the
best. Lincoln did not become dis
couraged even though all odds seem
ed to be against him. When he was
about the age of most of us, he had
only what little education that could
be gained from small backwoods
school and what few books he had or
could borrow from friends or neigh
bors. He was a failure at the first
professions which he took up, but
even then he did not give up hope
and consequently became one of our
greatest heroes.
So taking this man, whose entire
life was devoted to the good of his
fellow men, as an example, let's try
to continue our school work and be-
come, at least, good citizens of the
United States.

We are just starting our training

some of our young people to attend
this class and take advantage of this
opportunity.
Our average attendance for our

but we should strive to make it quite
a bit larger for February. Let's all
do our best to build up our Sunday

us in so doing.

mer.
This first aid work which was
started by the NJ. S. T. & 7. Co. a
Don't a year ago, is primarily for the
of the employees whose
