LOVE AND SACRIFICE

IF YOU exhibit continuous willing
a ness to love and sacrifice when all
humans about you seem resentful and
unappreciative, you have within your
soul the essence of true nobility.
In wars between nations, In do
nestle turmoils, In the breaking of
home ties, in the struggles for exis-
tence. love and sacrifice ultimately
become the final arbiters.
What more beautiful than the love
and sacrifice of mother, who re-
CARELESS of the undutifu1ness and
snubs of her children keeps on loving
and making sacrifices for their COM
fort and advancement, still smiling
complacently while in her breast she
Is carrying burden causing aches
and pains from which she would glad
ly be relieved, but refuses to be, be-
cause Of her spiritual nobility and
simple faith
The world is full of such love and
sacrifice, perhaps saving it and its
peoples from divine wrath, but GER
tainly making 1t better in manifold
ways which we do not In our blind
ness and apathy perceive or consider.
When all men say impossible"
when the waters are snarling and
the storms are beating against a
wanton boy or girl, love and sacrifice
stoop down and rescue him or her
from peril.

HOW 1T WAS
DECIDED
BY DOUGLAS MALLocH

DAD meant him for merchant, and
his brother for bank;
Sister thought that acting was the
very thing for Hank.
Grandma thought that preaching was
the thing he should be at,
And all the while insisted that she
meant the boy for that.
Mother-well lawyer mother meant
her boy to be.
Granddad was sailor, so he meant
him for the sea.
Some pulled for the ocean, some pulled
for the shore
There were SO many matters that so
many meant him for.
Now, of all his mentors only one, OF
course, could win.
Maybe you may wonder whom he fol-
lowed of his kin?
Well, he met a maiden, as will fire.
Quently occur,
And the maid at once decided that the
boy was meant for her.

West Indies, where the ship was
wrecked, and those of the crew who
survived, were cast ashore on a desert
island. AS there was only one small
life boat, they cast lots to see who
should stay and drown or who should
leave the ship. After some two
months, the men were rescued and
Biddle's wealthy family secured him
an appointment in the British navy.
He was twenty, then, and as he was
considered too young to be allowed to
accompany Musgrave on an arctic
cruise, he deserted and shipped with
the explorer as common seaman, and
went. Nelson, later to become the
world famous admiral, was his mess
mate.
When the War of independence
broke out, Biddle came home to enlist
and showed such ability that he was
given charge of ships that went out
and captured enemy vessels, bringing
supplies for their troops. He was the
naval hero Of the country. Then one
day he got into fight with an enemy
ship and was wounded. Ignoring his
hurt, he ordered an armchair and
supported on it, continued to direct
the battle. His ship blew up and he
persisted along with the whole crew,
mere lad of twenty-seven. Yet he
had accomplished more than most old
men, during his brief lifetime.

PERHAPS

Jonah was the father of all fish

Justice isn't blind, but only needs

Experience is feminine gender be-
cause it is so costly.
The hardest time to be brave is
when there's nobody watching you.
Cupid might have better luck If he
aimed at some pocketbooks instead
of at some hearts.
