soldiers and sages of the republic
became members of the society. Tor

publican principles. 1t was In favor
of government by the people, OF
freedom of speech and religion and
of the liberty of the press. Origl-
nally established for benevolent pur-
poses, it became political as soon as
an aristocratic element was suspect
ed to be growing strong, favorable
to a standing army and extensive
navy in time of peace. to heavy taxes
and to alien and sedition laws, such
as were in vogue in the time of the
elder Adams. when large party
desired to empower the president so

And He Was About Right

The homely, freckle faced little
newsboy had not greeted the young
woman who works in one of the
downtown office buildings for sever
al days. Instead she had had to eN-
plain to a serious looking little fell
low which paper she preferred. Soon
she began to realize how much the
CHEEKY smile and How are you,
miss" had meant to her when
served along with the latest edition.
Then one evening he was back at
his corner and the young woman
stopped to tell him how glad she was
to see him again and that she hoped
he was there to stay.
"Yes'm. guess I'm here to stay
sure 'nough. That other one was
my brother. I thought | could lend
him this corner and sell papers my
self at another. but the business
can't run itself and he never was no
business man"
The young woman smiled and
said:
He is not very old, perhaps he
will learn"
Not him; he never will learn.
Twice / have tried to set him up in
business for Himself and he can't
make IT go. Papers won't sell them
selves. You've got to be happy if
you want TO sell papers. You can't
be a crouch. He don't know the
first thing about good business
man. He just can't smile"
The young woman demonstrated
her own business ability with a
smile. took her paper and hurried
into the car But she did not read
the paper on her way home. She
had other things to think of.
