Envy is the Door-Plate of ignorance

Inferiority is the root of all envy. The strong covet the respect of
others. not their envy. For envy is the rebellion Of the incompetent.
Once envy is permitted to take root 1t crowds out ambition as a weed
kills a cultured plant. Envy benumbs and Supplies determination. 1t
is a confession of despair. 1t produces nothing. 1t yields no return.
To submit to it i Is to bankrupt endeavor.
envy lays down all arms. Irreconcilable, it cannot even be offended
into action. q
They who r. unwilling to hear good tidings of a neghbor and can
find happiness only in seeing others depressed to a level with themselves
are the most hopelessly lost to the work of the world. Their envy is a
passion so full of cowardice that even they have not the confidence to
openly own It, The weakest III reluctant to pose as foes of character.
Envy is q secret vice.
Upon all occasions that ought to give him pleasure the enyious man
wilfuIy puts himself in pain. He converts what should be nfes relish
into secret anguish. Those things which give the highest satisfaction
to others give him the quickest pangs. To him all the PROJECTIONS OF
fellow creatures ire odious. Youth, beauty, valor, integrity and wis
dom are provocations for his displeasures.
To be offended with excellence, to hate a man because the world
approves is but the faint praise Of a wretched soul.
So false to all good is envy that no man can deaoise 1t more than
he who envies most. As a slave to a drug he would rise above 1t II
he could. and envies no one so much IS he can.
Envy hurts only the possessor. Like a scorpion confined w1tn1n a
circle of fire it sungs itself to death.
The truest evidence of character is to be without a touch Of envy.

Also what might q woman say Ii

At a wedding reception a man

The woman could say to the bride
'1et me wish you every happiness

graduate you most heartily on the
good fortune that Is yours today"
DEAR A. LEDA:
If one has friends in the audience
during a play is it all right to go
over and sit with them during an
intermission? g. If two men and
two women are at a play together is
it permissible for the men to leave
the women to go and smoke during
an intermission? 3. Surprising there
is just a man and a woman alone,
does the same rule hold?
AN INTERESTED READER.
Yes. On one condition-which is,
that your friends have aisle seats,
otherwise you should go out in the

man should not leave a woman
seated alone in the audience.

ODD FELLOWS TIE UP
WITH SUGAR TRAMPS

The game which had been schedu-
led for the opening set-too of the Twi-
light league season, was played at the
diamond Monday evening, and was
put on by the Sugar Factory Tramps
and the Odd Fellows.
Killan was in the box for the
Tramps and Busse was catcher. For
and had an admirable backstop in
Dale.
The game started off with a lot of
pep, the Sugar fellows apparently hav-
ing the edge of the thing, for at the
end of the third inning the five of
their men had successfully cleared the
diamond, while the Odd Fellows had a
goose egg.
Both pitchers had plenty of steam,
but the Sugar Factory catcher found
it difficult to hold Killian's curves,
with the result that about the time the
batter would have a strikeout the
ball slipped past Busse and the runner
found himself as safe as if he were at
home in his little trundle bed.
Killian made q fine showing, strik-
ing out six men straight in the sec
ond and third innings. Norman fan
ned nine in four innings. The report
er did not obtain the score for the
first inning.
The Odd Fellows picked up two runs
in the third and three in the fourth,
due largely to passed balls, and the
score was tied Final: 5-5.
