more than any other famous American. He got very

As l write l am on a railroad
train en- route to Kansas City. 1t
is a beautiful day, much cooler after
a hot spell, and all Nature is smil-
ing.
The farmers are busy In the corn
fields. That is their job and they
do it well. Out of agriculture
comes a living for most of the hu-
man family, and with it comes the
vigorous health which an out-of-
door life is likely TO give.
II it we're not that the hoe makes
blisters and c0lluses, and the weed
ing of the flower bed breaks the
nails and grimes the hands, there
would be more workers in the gar
dens. The backache and kneeachc
Of gardening frightens others. Some
are afraid OF the thorns Of the roses
and of the little green worms found
on their leaves. Others are fearful
of snakes and toads. But the hon
est-to-goodness truth is that too
many are afraid Of WORK.
1t is a great thing for health to
use the muscles, to tear down their
fiber by vigorous effort, to make de-
mands upon the forces of body re-
pair.
When you have built one house
you say, Il wish could build an
other house. 1 could make II much
better" You would. In a sense,
Nature works along similar lines.
You have good muscles, but every
time you tear them down, Nature
rebuilds them better and stronger
than before.
You can't make your heart mus
cles strong by pussy-fOoting through
life. Your heart and lungs rejoice
in the vigorous demands you make
upon them by systematic strenuous
effort. They grow firm and force
full under the whip of use.
1t is no wonder the kidneys re-
bel at times. IT isn't fair to make
them alone responsible for the elimi-
nation Of the body waste. Why
should not the skin be called upon
10 render powerful aid in this i'm
portant matter Of carrying away
the pOisons Of the body?
When you perspire freely, the
sweat. which pours from your skin
is taking from your body waste sub
stances which are worse than value
less. They are real pOisons. You
want your blood TO be clean. In

Labor, Independent
and Proud

~ NE HUNDRED years ago Daniel Webster said
L j during the course of an address
- Labor in this country is independent and
proud. 1t has not to ask the patronage of capital but
capital solicts the aid of labor
Since April, 1924, when the great American states
man enunciated that truth, great changes have been
wrought in the economic world. But then, Amer
lean labor is Independent and proud.
The demarcation, however, between capital and
American labor is not clearly defined Capital pos
sessed and controlled by labor not nconsderabe It
is not unusual for the working to be his own EN-
ployer.
The worker of today enjoys more luxuries and ad-
vantages than the capitalist of Websers time That is
what progress has done for the working manbut there
would have been progress if both capital and labor
had not been intelligent and resourcefu and progress
would have been impossible if labor had become sub
servient to capital.
This day. throughout the United States, is dedicated
to labor The hum of industry has ceased for the time
When labor rests industry must halt
Nowhere in the world is the observance of day
dedicated to labor significant of true democracy
than in the United States The labor days of the Old
World are times of protest. Here, they are days OF

"Gilderoy's Kite"

"There goes my game higher than
Gilderoy's kite" said a chess player
when he saw that he had made
move which meant the certain loss
Of the game to him.
To be hanged "higher than Gil
deroy's kite"smeant to be punished
more severely than the very worst
criminal. The greater the crime
the higher the gallows, was at one
time n practical legal maxim. Ham
an, it will be remembered, was
hanged on very high gallows,
while the one on which the Marquis
of Montrose suffered punishment,
in Edinburgh, in 1913, was thirty
feet high.
Gilderoy was famous robber,
who stole from Cardinal Richelieu
and Oliver Cromwell. There was
a Scotch robber of the same name
in the reign of Queen Mary. Both
were noted for their handsome per.
sons, and both were hanged. The
old saying had Il that Gildcroy was
hanged so high he looked "like

1t is the most important event in

The great questions that are be-

These are questions that come in

What career shall a young man

WAYSIDE WISDOM
ByS E. KISER
You Can't Always Tell.
BY S. E. kISER

Love. he said, was for the foolish,
for the thoughtless and the
weak,
For the boy whose lip was fuzzy,
and who had a downy cheek;
Love was but n poets fancy, just
an airy bit Of song.
Not for men whose days were busy
and whose purposes were
strong.
He was wioe across the shoulders,
and possessed a jutting chin;
High his forehead seemed TO tower,
for his hair was getting thin;
Many other men obeyed him, there
were brains beneath his hat;
Orders went in all directions from
the desk at which he sat.
Love, be said, was for the women
and for men whose minds
were small;
Love was but form of sickness,
he asserted, that was all;
Men who died for love were crazy,
that to him, he said, was
clear;
He was masterful and mighty, and
his manners we're severe.
Well, it happened, as you doubt
less have been very sure 1t
would,
That he met certain woman who
had graces that were good;
She was young, she had a figure;
she had wit and she was wise
She could smile, but there was dan.
ger lurking deep within her
eyes.

BOY SCOUTS AND NATURE
By GARRETT P. SERVISS

learns by contact. In the woods
and the fields he finds more science
than in the streets and shops. 1t
is universal knowledge that he gets,
the knowledge that is Of equal i'm
portance to all mankind. It is the
sort that inspires self-reliance. No
book and no school can teach IL so
we'll. His experiences on the march
in camp and among difficulties
thrown in his way by nature not
only make him more masterful but
teach him more Of essential human
nature than he can learn otherwise
or elsewhere. The strong and the
weak points of his companions come
out into view as never amidst arti-
fetal surroundings.
The health-promoting qualities
Of Boy Scout life are among its
greatest advantages. 1t opens a
universal sanitarium, where fresh
air and inspiring exercise Of mind
no less than Of muscle give tone ond
strength TO the whole being. IL
we're a millionaire and had young
boy to bring up / would far sooner
send him on n summers scouting
campaign, or winters for that
matter, than put him into the best
limousine in the world to swing
around the circle Of fashionable
beaches and "health resorts" And
most normal-minded boys prefer
the scouting to the droning.
The simple fact that the Boy
Scout knows the North Star is
enough to give him a certain dis
tinction. Many Of them also know
how to tell when it is noon, with
out a watch; how to start fire
when all the woods are wet; how
to set a compass; how TO row; how
TO fish; how to cook; how to pitch
a tent; how to keep fire all
night; how to shoot; how to set
trap; how to know animals by their
tracks; how not to get lost; how
to meet emergencies; how to deal
with accidental injuries--and many
other bits OF practical knowledge,
which you may call primitive il you
like, but which are OF fundamental
Importance and are seldom il ever
taught at school or at home.

OVER LIES HURDLES
A Few Points On Choosing a Job.
By LOUIS E. BISCH

; of work are the same. All are
jobs!
BE sure you know yourself and
that you understand where your
strength as well as weaknesses lie.
None of us are perfect. We all
have faults. Try to put your
strength and not your weaknesses
into your job!
We all want money and every
man is worthy Of his hire" How
ever, if money is to be your dOmi-
mating passion don't choose Jobs
that give more than they receive.
Leave all kinds Of social service
alone--avoid the teaching, mission
arg and preaching professions.
If conventional ways of living
are intolerant to you, go in for com
mercial travelling, exploring, pros
pecting, etc.
IL you feel you possess a strong
creative impulse prepare yourself
for literary work or scientific re-
search.
If solitude makes a strong ap-
peal, choose a job like that OF a
railroad signal-man or station agent
or take up mining or forestry.
II you like to sway people or
possess natural gifts of mimicry or
crave to be in the public eye, you
might try to become an actor, a
political organizer, an orator, etc.
II you shy at responsibility re-
member you will never succeed as
an executive--at the top! Respon-
sibility goes with every job, but
the higher up the job the greater
is its burden.
These are only a few points on
choosing a job. A volume could be
written about it. Still It may help
to orient you, or make you think
before you choose!
But always remember first 10
prepare yourself for you job! BE
sure you are properly equipped!
Don't be hasty in choosing job !
Consider carefully every phase OF
the problem! Choose always with
the idea that the job is to be your
life work.

I lately saw some French Boy
Scouts busy beside small, spark

down from the flanks Of the "Yieil
Armand or Observation-Disclosures"
that famous northern spur of the
Vosges mountains, whose possession
was disputed through the whole of
the World War, first one side and
then the other holding the summit,
which is now crowned with both
French and German memories of
the sixty thousand soldiers who
gave up their lives there. Behind
the top there are great fields Of
white crosses!
The first sight Of these young
scouts startled me. With the
familiar peak-top, slouch.brim hats,
Khaki clothes, and alert manner,

over this Towering Of an Ameri.
can idea in Europe. 1t carries with
it a breath of America itself-nat-
ural, practical, confident, awake,
quick agile, energetic. It expresses
what they like us for in the Old
World and what they are most ready
to initiate from US.
II the world is to avoid another
crash like that to which the Gaze
sars led it, it must somehow recon-
cile civilization with nature. The
life of the Boy Scout, as I have
observed 1t, is step in the right
direction. II rubs off the false We
neer of the cities and corrects the
effects of injurious urban aSocia-
tons.
However small this planet may
seem by astronomical standards,
it is yet far too large to be arti-
ficializcd. Its natural laws and
facts furnish the basis Of our ply

afford to be sneered at.

School Notes

teachers and the various instructors
in the schools of the country.
Teaching is the noblest Of pro-
LESSONS and the most important.
The teacher occupies the place of
the parent for manysa child, and
his selection shouid be matter of
the gravest concern to the COM
munity.
The teacher has never been well
enough paid. The value of his SER
vices has never been truly appre-
ciated.
Too often the teaching business
is merely used as stepping stone
for something else. 1t is regarded
by girls as a stop gap until their
marriage, and by boys as something
to be engaged in while they are
waiting for their true profession.
More people should regard teach
ing as a life's calling and it should
be well enough paid to make it
worth ones while.
Here's wishing the best of luck
to that noble army of teachers
throughout the United States.
