VICE PRESIDENT'S ADVICE The friendship of former Vice Presi dent Marshall for scouting Is of long standing, dating back to the very be ginning of the movement. Mr. Mar shall as president of the senate signed the congressional bill, Incorporating the Boy Scouts of America, February 8th, 1910. The former vice president who keeps In close and sympathetic touch with scout affairs, recently In Indian apolis, conferred the highest award of rank which scouting offers, the Eagle badge, on three boys at a Court of Honor meeting.' "I sincerely hope that when you grow to your majority you will practice the same loyalty to your country that you now show to your scout leaders," he said In addressing the scouts, "You have attained high honor In scouting, but do not let It make you 'chesty.' Just -think that nature has made you a little more fitted to qualify for this honor, and always remember to lend a helping hand to your less fortunate brother scouts, and aid them In every possible way to at tain this honor also." SCOUT AIDS STRICKEN MEN Edward Hartzell of Buffalo, N. Y., showed that he had learned his scout work well when, with the aid of a po liceman, he resuscitated by means ol artificial respiration two men wjiora he saw stagger to the street and collapse.

All along the shadowed ways of life the great-hearted are constantly send ing out sunlight and cheer, which hu mans of inferior natures can never know or beStow. To do good, without having their mo tives suspected. Is their grand inten tion. They seek no praise. They move about with the quiet of summer breezes, leaving In their trail the delicious scent of gardens and the peace of tranquil skies. In the happiness they give to others, they find a gratification rich beyond price. If but once In your Ufa you should be fortunate enough to meet t great-hearted man or woman, the re membrance of It will linger In your mind until the end of your days. Great hearts often dwell In lowly places. Sometimes they are found In frail bodies, poorly clad, but there Is about them a radiancy of spirit brighter than a thousand stars and clear as the beaming of the noonday sun. Great hearts blow to flame the spark that blazes with love; they espouse Truth and Mercy ; they sing from morn till night of kindness and good will, when their days are lonely and their tables are bare. They are neither silent nor neglect ful when the 111 and the discouraged need succor or sympathy. Meek or lowly, they are the minister ing angels from heaven, carrying to the sorrowing "good tidings of great Joy." From Idle slumbers they call youth and point the way to honor and fame; from the valley of gloom they bid the despondent to look up to the glorious heavens ; from the mire of sin they lift up the fallen, seeking no reward but the Joy that Is theirs from doing good. They sin as we all sin, but unlike most of us. they are charitable towards all mankind, prayerful, watchful, faith ful. When the chimes In the belfry chant their evening hymns, no souls on earth are more serenely peaceful than the great-hearted ; when at the setting sun of their life the streams of light grow dim In the golden west, and the som ber shadows fall all about them, no souls on earth are happier than they, or more eager to go.

Chinese Ancients Used Swords. Chinese scholars claim that iron swords were in use In their country 000 years ago. , Lincoln vs. You Lincoln belongs to the aires. He was a man among men and all the world today recognizes nis genius ox cnaracter. Lincoln was self-taught. Instead of waiting for someone to pound knowledge Into him, he would walk miles to secure a book that he might pursue the quest of knowledge which was a supreme passion with him throughout his life. Lincoln Instinctively knew that knowl edge was the key that unlocks the door to lame ana lortune, or any success mat man desires. He went directly after knowledge to prepare himself so that when his chance came he would be ready. You may look handsomer tnan Lincoln; ou may have more native strength than .in coin; you may have an Intellect that could easily be developed: but If you have not the burning desire to develop yourself, you are certain to stick In the mud-sock class. Know edee is distinctly a matter or in clination. If you do not secure knowledge you are Just as certain to suffer for your lack of development In a mental way as you would certainly deteriorate physically if you laid In bed all the time and would neglect to develop your muscles, iazi ness leads to pain and failure. If you In. slat on being lazv. the law of compensa tion will force you to pay compound In terest for your idleness, xou wilt De whipped and scourged and made to do the meanest work of the world. The hard law. of necessity are sure to overtake vou. You must eat and DeODle will ins st that you earn what you eat. The whip or necessity will Deat your Dieening DacK and the .ham tongue of a heartless world will tear to shreds your sensibilities. When you are stretcnea on tne cross or neces sity, people of this world will crown you witn tnorns ana arive into your iiesn. nails expressing their scorn. Lincoln knew tnat tne worm win never forgive failure. Logically he' equipped htmseir to succeea ana ne oia succeed. You, too, can succeed, but you must pre pare yourself for the battle of life. The greatest asset In life Is a strong character ana tne anility to express your self. If you are dumb as a dog you will receive the reward of a dog, the crumbs from some ncn man s table, who under stands the way to express himself. The great mass of men nave made no effort to develop themselves. Nenrly all are capable of infinite development, but thev do not remise It. Tney are paralyzed by the thought that they are Inferior when In reality the only difference be tween a successful man and themselves 1. develoDment. They could easily (tow If they would get busy and develop themselves as Lin coln and other great men have done. you do not nave to do a super-man or a giant of Intellect, but you do have to be just a little better than the average to be selected to occupy a seat of honor and ease where you will work leas ana get more. If you simply develop the .tiff back of a Jack-ass and the physical strength of a mule you will naturally be paid for brute strength and nothing more, because that is all your equipment will enable you to render In doing the work of the world.
