Do you long ti find entrance to other
people's hearts? Then open that portal
to your own.
The expression, "What will other people
think?" is all right in its way. but it's
what you know and think of your self
that makes you happy or otherwise.
"Time and trains wait for no man." yet
the trains on the 0. R. & N. have, by
necessity of land slides, caused many long
and weary waits in the last two days.

THE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATE
Another religious land mark will soon
fade away. The Baptists have decided
upon big improvements for their church
home. First the Mormon tabernacle
looms up, a structure that would credit
any city, and now comes the Baptists
with a brick edifice that is to cost in the
neighborhood of nine thousand dollars.
More progressiveness.
While it is true, that many of the boys
who graduate from our best high schools
neve; gain a foot hold on the highest
rungs of the ladder of wealth, still an
education may be worth more than mere
gold, or what gold can buy.
Look for a moment at the lives of those
who do not reach the apex of that proverb
ial ladder, if he has made the best of
his opportunities, he can pick up his,
perhaps meagre lun:h and proceed to a
menial labor and feel as proud as the
proudest He has a reas:n to feel proud
because his botany back there in high
school taught him to be a keen observer
of the plants and even the weeds that
grow by the wayside. Isn't that "worth
something? There is enjoyment in it.
His physicl geography back in the
same school will now stand him in hand
to perhaps study workings of nature in
that shovel full of dirt and stones he is
lifting to a flat car, and while his mate
is thinking of the time for the noon
whistle tarrying in his work, the high
schbol graduate is making work pleasure
by a careful study of the different rock
he sees. More real enjoyment, and
better and more work for his employer
That dry study of astrology wilt serve
him well on an evening to spend a long
land weary twilight by rehearsing his
j iessjns of years gone by. More enjoy
' ment. Then that physic3, in which his
parents failed to see any possibilities rf
j future benefit, can now be brought to '
bear in bringing this mortal in closer toucn
J w:th nature. The graduate, whom other ;
pe pie say never realized any benefit of
an education, can make interesting study ;
t 1
ejt of that crow-bar he is prying rock ;
j with. H s former chemistry now comes j
to the front and relieves the aching j
back while he studies the compos. tion 1
ar.ii ttiechemical ingredients of it during !
' what time his ignorant felioworkman j
:diy w.slies for something more interest- !
it's to d.x j
What is life's object? To be content !
! with one's self. Is not the high school'
! education a direct benefit then if it helps
' to a'.ieviate and lighten the burdens, and
; in many other ways assits in bringing.

The city authorities of this city j
are working along lines, in regard to
tramps, that is worthy of commendation
Marshall Rayburn and Recorder Snook,
one with the other, have managed to
keep all "Weary Willie's still more weary,
by extracting from them several days of
good hard work.' The streets are cleaner
in two ways, less dirt and less tramps.
A tragic fini: h
A watchman's neglect permitted a
leak in the great North Sea dyke, which
a child's finger could have stopped, to be
come a rumnous break, devastating an
entire province of Holland. In ike man
ner Kenneth Mclver. of Va.xeboro, Me.,
permitted a little cold to go unnoticed
until a traggic finish was only averted by
Dr. King's New Discovery. He writes:
