Your Ell DORADO

From the days of Cortez men have
been seeking an Ell Dorado.
There is none; if there ever was, it
is extinct
Success is only in part question
of climate, soil and association, for
nowhere on earth can it be achieved
without intensive effort or without ex-
ira hazard.
Sagacity and hard work are absol-
ute essentials
Perhaps the idea Of FL Dorado is an
attempt to give visible form to human
aspirations.
Experience has proved that your FL
Dorado is more likely to exist in
YOUR OWN BACK YARD than any
where else.
1t is not so much where you are as
what you do, that counts
There are 10000 communities in
this country and an equal number in
Europe where people are perhaps get
ting as much from life as is possib-
lie for life to give.
For the FL Dorado is where the
heart dwells
And in every one of these COM
munities are people who are hungry
and miserable.
Most young people imagine that an
Ell Dorado means fortune; that
they can find happiness in things.
Many who acquire a fortune find
only establishment.
In material possession no one gets
more than his board and clothes, re-
CARELESS of his property and his bank
balance.
Whoever possesses house where
in love dwells and means of livelihood
to keep the wolf from the door and
lay by something for the winter life,
has found his Ell Dorado.
And Ell Dorados are easier lost
than won.

Slim Used by DAVID.

The sling in use in the time of Da-
vid, and which with few changes Is
still used by shepherds in Palestine, Is
made of plated thongs or of one strip
of leather, probably not over II or 13
inches in length. The leather is
broad at the middle to form pocket
for the stone. Both ends are held
firmly in the hand while the sling is
whirled rapidly round and round the
head, one end being finally released in
order that the stone may take it's
flight.

LeSf We Forget"
"a Communication

To the Editor of The ToMAHAwK:
A guest in the home of one of
your residents this last week, my
first visit was to the little cemetery
over the hill where lie so many
loved and revered by us aud those
who have been so much 10 as as a
people. And as l wandered thru
the narrow paths of the dead |
looked for 3 grave-a grave in
which lay one whose life had been
spent in effort for those he loved.
The grave of one whose generous
big-heartedness was such that
when he passed away all he had
had been spent or given for others,
and little, if anything, left for his
very own. Rich in poverty he
was, for riches is counted not in
money but in deeds. and of these
there we're many..to his credit. He
had ALWAYS given-from of his
time, his effort, his advice and,
too, of his money. Generous"
some say, Ito a fault" tho there
is ONE who would not say that.
Yet l could not find the grave.
There was no stone to mark It's
place-IT WAS LOST. The! shock
was great to me, and l thot. DO
his people know thisY" The answer
was as quick, s"Of course not"
And so write this, to let all those
whom he has in any way helped or
who care to show their appreciation
of his worth as a man know they
may aid in raising a monument to
the memory of Gus. H. Beaulieu.
l myself will head the subscription
with ten dollars, and contributions
even to ten cents, for many child
rem will give, may be sent to Mr.
Ben S. Fairbanks, White Earth,
Minnesota. All names being duly
published as received.

One OF the WOSL TemdThaDle
: political Developments of the
times is the popularity of
President Coolidge among
those who, ordinarily, are lit
tie interested in politics.
This comes about because
it is very apparent that this
quiet, modest man, whose en-
dowment with worldly goods
is less than that of any man
who ever occupied the presi-
Dental chair, has during his
public career steadfastly
used conscience as his guide
without considering the eff
feet on his political fortunes.
He has COMPOUNDED many
politicians, men who "play
the game" because, by doing
what he thought was right
without compromise or en-
deavor to placate "both
sides" he has won more favor
among men and women than
those who are prone to strad-
die and evade.
In the fact that President
Coolidge has convictions and
the courage of his convic-
tions, and in the further
fact that the American peo-
pie are intelligent and recog-
nize this, lies the almost
unanimous desire on the part
Of the ordinary citizen, who
dislikes; ordinary political
Methods to see him nominal
ed and elected. The average
man and woman owes it to
himself and herself, and to
this country of ours which we
ourselves rule, to make it
manifest that Coolidge is the
real choice Of tho real people
and to allow no possible
doubt Of this to exist in the
minds Of the delegates to the
conventions. \
MAKE YOUR INFLUENCE
FELT
The Republican caucuses
to select delegates to the
County conventions will. be
held March 3. BE sure you
attend the caucus in your
voting district and vote for
the delegates to the County
Convention who are uncom-
promisingly for Coolidge.
For these delegates in turn

which meets in Cleveland
June 10. The beginnings Of
the huge Coolidge ratifica-
ton is in the district caucus.
