A little true ambition
With a little bit of wit.

It's the little things that people do
That make the old world go.
A little bit of smiling
And little sunny chat,
A little bit of courage

1t takes a kindly action
And it takes a word of cheer,
To fill a life with sunshine
And to drive away tear.

Have Said in My Heart
BY lDAH MceLoNE GIBSON
COURTESY

No one should accept an invitation to a party who does not take
something besides a crouch to it.
One should understand that to go with a saddened or sour face
where one is expected to have a good time, il a crime against good
manners.
whose dinner a man had committed numberless gaucheries, said. sadly:
necessary than good morals"
If one is in a state of mind where it is impossible to forget ones
troubles, then one should not infict oneself upon others. .
1t is the duty of those who accept invitations no to allow their
faces Or actions to express the fact that they are eithered bored or
Discontinued.
It is always easier than one may think to assume the mental
attitude one would like to feel.
If you cannot shake off dependency, you should shut yourself up
alone, because dependency is quite as catching as happiness. You can
broadcast cheerfulness, beauty, hope and confidence, and although
you may never know at just what receiving station your joyousness has
helped some weary soul, you must know in your own heart that your
face, your manner, your speech is read by the whole world about you.
You are moi only broadcastng your thoughts and your speech, bE
you are yourself a moving picture of your immortal soul, spread ut
where all who came near may see.
Do not show the world your failures. 1t is full enough of failures
without having to make room for yours.
Do not admit that you re disgrunued. It only makes you more n
comfortable as we'll as others about you.
Let no one dream you have an ugly side, for if you do, ever after
it will mar his opinion Of you.
Assume an expression of sympathetic interest and you will soon
find Yourself looking for interests in which you can sympath1Ze.
Do OF allow yourself to whine in company. 1t is lot courageous
and the world hates a coward in the same degree 1t loves a over.
Memo:-Let your prayer be: From all egoustical criticism N
from snobbishness and smugness of mind, Good Lord deliver me.

After flashing their warnings to
three generations of mariners, rays
of the great lamp in historic Barne-
| gat Lighthouse will be dimmed for
| ever tomorrow night when a puny
| gas lamp will replace the famous
beacon. Local and Statewide
sentiment, which has backed eX
penditures of 100000 to save the
lighthouse from Entertainments OF
the sea, is expressing its resent
ment of the change effected by
Government Lighthouse officials,
claiming that the old brick tower,
| without its familiar light, will lose
much of it's glory.
At one of the most dangerous
points for vessels on the Atlantic
seaboard, old Barnegat light has
for seventy years been visible on
vessels twenty miles at sea-. A
lamp-burning vaporized Kerosene
has furnished the illumination,
which has beer intensified a thou
sand times by reflection through
its great dome of hundreds OF
French lenses, some of them even
inches in thickness. This equipment
has been junked in favor of a
smaller a~cetylene lantern, similar
to those used on lightships. 1t has
been installed on the dome of the
tower, SIXTEEN feet higher than
the original light, and its max
mum range is limited to fifteen
miles. The Government will sup
plement the tower light with a
lightship eight miles at sea-, but
the total illumination of the two
new lights will not equal the range
of the old beacon. Real need for a
powerful light here was evidenced
by last winters storm toll of our
ships and eight lives within range
OF the present llgnt.
The new lamp was installed at
a cost of several thousand dollars,
under the bureau plea of economy
in operation. Agents of the bureau
now announce, however, that the
gas lamp is only a temporary ar
rangement, pending the use of
electricity. A utility company
already has extended its power
lines to the lighthouse, so that
the current is available before the
expensive substitute winker is
turned On next Monday night.
The work of saving the historic
tower from topping into the sea,
meanwhile, is in progress. In addi-
ton to the great stone jetty direct
ly in front of the tower, presenting
a solid barrier to the erratic cur
rents Of Barnegat Inlet, a series of
wooden jetties has been built on
the bay side of the tower. Recent
storms have raeked the jetties of
pilings on the ocean side, which
alone stood between the lighthouse
and destruction before the State
adopted its reclamation plan, and
these will have to be rebuilt.

CHAPTER xxx.

Lying awake during night which
seemed endless, Nancy decided on a
definite course of action. FROM now
on she would refuse every invitation
which included Chloris and Eric.
If Richard wished to see her, IL
would have to be alone. 1t wasn't
fair that Chloris, whose affection Tor
all of them was so innoceutly
sincere, should be made to suffer.
She was crying now because she
suspected Eric of reawakened IN
terested in the girl at her side.
Nancy wished to comfort her, but
she felt her sympathy would be a
presumption.
She must never give a sign that
she knew Chloris was Jealous. But
she would stay away until gradually
her faith In Eric returned.
1.-THE irony of it," thought Nancy,
"that she should think he cares Tor
>ME!"
She felt a real affection for the
little figure crying so hopelessly.
Chloris was like child. One utter
" unacCuSLOmeQ 10 punishment.
After a while her weeping softened
into shuddering signs.
When she was asleep, Nancy sat
up in bed and stared once more
into the blank space OF the open
window. Vowing to be as tender
with Chloris as she would be cruel
to her former lover.
Whole armies OF conflicting
emotions fought within her. And
she rose at 6 feeling like a wreck
ed battlefield. Strewn with dead
illusions, broken hopes and marred,
distorted dreams. -.
But she dashed cold water on her
drawn face, determined to fight
with all the old enthusiasm. Moth
ing had 'rdowned" her yet. Nothing
ever should. Not even the cruel,
lacerating thrusts of Eric Nelson.
She greeted Richard gayly. He
was wearing disreputable pair of
trousers and an old army sweater.
And he cried, This Is the life,

without binding her! She knew If
she could ever care for anyone 1t
would be Richard.
The only thing lacking was the
flame of desire which she did not
wish to feel again. Which Eric had
declared was not essential to love.
Which could be, it seemed, quite
unrelated to it.
>t"What's your answer?" Richard
asked, leaning forward anxiously.
She met his eyes honestly.
"I'll wear it, Richard. AMI I really
hope the time will come when I can
promise more" She added, There's
no one in the world I'd rather love"

British Cabinet to
Enfranchise Women

LONDON, April 1.-The British
cabinets decision to propose legisla-
ton giving the vote to British women
at the age of 81, although hailed by
many women leaders, brings no false
sense of victory.
"All women will have votes before
long" said Miss Christabel Pank-
hurst, once leader of the militant suf-
fragists. "Women will be able to
rule the men. We shall no doubt have
women prime minister. We shall
be out voting the men.
"Years ago, l should have been in
the seventh heaven of delight if this
has come to pass. But have changed
since then. 1t does not elate me one
bit now. I know we can make the
same mistakes as men,"
