The Boys Part.

A woman speaking before mems
civic club recently said that the boys
of the country were suffering from
too much male domination-that
they needed the womanly touch.
Every man viii admit that they do
need the influence Of mother, but
that they are not being "dehumaniz-
ed" by their elders.
The boy is the fellow who is going
to carry on what the men Of the
present generation have begun or are
beginning. lie needs to be in close
contact with men to get the mascu-
line viewpoint-and he is not going
to suffer if the man is inclined to
interest himself in boys
More and more intensely are men
coming to realize that they can do
more for the future by taking some
interest in what the men of the
future will be, than in any other
way
Mems organizations are devoting
time to a study Of the boy and trying
to direct his activities and thoughts
into channels that will develop him
so that he will be able to take up the
job where they leave off
Men who stop to think have long
since realized that it is wasted effort
to build up a business based on an
ideal if something is not done to in
still the same thought in the mind
of him who will carry on.
Mans work today is going to be
judged. and praised or condemned by
the boy Of today, when he becomes q
man.
Mans efforts, no matter how sin.
cere and well meaning, are as snow
before a hot sun unless he takes into
account those who are to follow.
He-this boy Of yours--is goinf
to be the president, the senator, the
statesman, the preacher. the teacher
the lawyer, the judge, the merchant
The fate of the nation and humanity
is in his hands
So it is well to pay him some at
tention for the measure Of success he
has with the tasks Of the mex
generation depends on the training
he has at the hands Of the men o.
the present generation.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By S. w. STRAUS
President Of American Society for Thrift

One of the most successful bust
ness men of our day recently said:
Early in life, when a poor boy,
formed the habit of jotting down a
record of every penny | spent This
taught me the value of system and
frugality. | soon found myself able
to save a little money. As | grew
developed habits of general thrift
from this simple beginning, and, with
small amount of capital thus avail
able when | reached the age of
maturity, | was able to take advant-
age Of opportunities that led to
subsequent success"
While it may seem waste of
time to laboriously keep record of
every cent one spends it is a fact
that many Of our successful men hold
themselves to this rigid discipline.
Every business concern keeps a
strict account of every penny re-
eeived and spent, and a business
which transacted its affairs in any
other manner would be most
incapably managed. The same
principle should hold true in the case
Of the individual.
Carelessness in small things leads
to carelessness in larger affairs and
likewise the careful handling of
small amounts of money fits one for
the greater and larger responsible
ties of life.
The value of budget keeping is
especially valuable to the young for
the habit thus formed early in life is
quite apt to be carried along as a
permanent routine.
If you are endeavoring to get
ahead in the world and be prepared
for the rainy days that come into
all lives, adopt first of all the rule of
keeping an accurate daily record of
your expenses You will find that
by the adoption of a budget system
your success in thrift will be made
doubly easy and you will soon be
surprised at the difference these
systematic practices make in the
amount of your savings.
A few pennies or few dollars
wasted here and there do not seem tc
amount to much at the time they are
spent, but when you see the record
Of these extravagances in colo
figures they assume their true pro.
portions and significance. Make
your thrift practices conform to q
concise, definite system.

It's a sad commentary on our
boosted civilization that the pessi-
mist is often right. The reason is
self-evident. He's in the majority
and most people think as he does.
He says that we are headed for
perdition--and perhaps he's right
again.
Mans a land animal. but he's get
ting away from the land as fast as
he can. And every time he gets
very far away, it means trouble.
Modern man refuses to walk. His
preference is to ride on wheels and
everyone who can, does.
When he rides he can't digest his
food and there follows long line of
bodily Ills that make him Inefficient
He has his golf, you say, to get
the needed exercise. But, answers
the pessimist, we can't use all the
land for golf courses because some
of it has to be used to produce food.
Right again.
Who's going to raise the food, if
everybody moves to the large centers
of population? The majority of the
people live in towns and cities.
And here's where the pessimist
smiles--a rare thing he does.
You will have to admit that the
optimist does have difficult part
people leaving the land and those
who remain have automobiles in
their garages and radios in their
homes to hook them up with, and
bring them under the influence of
crowd life, excitement and nervous
stimulation.
But the optimist can keep on
smiling and hoping that it win all
turn out for the best.

There can't be any under dogs un-
less there are some upper dogs.

suaded to stop at the road crossings.

family questionable male and the

and you can always get him to go on
your note.

we invariably fail--when we try to

Washable maps have been invent
ed, but the detours can't be erased.

WILL CONDUCT DRIVE TO
HELP LIBRARY
Women's Organizations in the City
VIII Solicit Funds to Buy New
Books for Public Library.

At a meeting held at the library
Tuesday evening, at which there
were present two members from
each Of the women's organizations in
the city, Mrs Henry Carter was APP
pointed chairman of a drive which
win me carried on next week to
relieve the financial situation of
the library.
Thirty women were present at the
meeting and the question Of helping
the library was discussed pro and
con. A house to house canvas was
finally decided upon as the most
efficacious way of raising the much
needed funds for carrying on the
work of the library.
Committees are being appointed
in each district any every house in
Hurley, Cary and Gle will be visited.
The drive will run from Monday on
through Friday.
As every thinking person realizes,
the library occupies a very i'm
portant place in the lives of the
youngsters. Every evening the
room is thronged with them, begging
the librarian for something new to
read. 1t is indeed hard to be forced
to point to the same old books which
have been on the shelves for years,
and which have been read and re-
read by most Of the children. The
price Of books has nearly doubled in
the past few years and the appropria-
tons from the city have not gone
very far in the purchase of books.
For the past year or more, the city
has been unable to do anything for
the library so it is now up to the
people. A generous donation will
be more than appreciated by the
children, and the donor viii be
many times repaid.

Uncle bud Says "Whcn the price

who possess common sense"
There is said to be few crosseyed

crooked.
You can prove anything by sta

You compliment a man when you

People pray the Lord not to be
led into temptation-but always
keep tight hold on the rope.
When a policitian cannot answer
question any other way he can
always blame it on the tariff.
A wife can safely trust her hus-
band until she finds that he insists
on brushing his own clothes.
The road to success always has
lots Of detours and it's a wise man
that knows which ones to take.

Many a young man who Twins his

The fellow who has made a failure
in life can never understand why OF
her people will not take his advice.
Perhaps they call them "fall''
days because it marks the time when
your bank balance starts down

When a public official kicks on the
size of his salary it is time to remind
him that he is at liberty to go to

An ounce Of prevention may be
