\I/ORK

The only worthwhile things that have come to us in this life have come through work that has always been hard, and often bitter. We believe that this has always been true of mankind and that it always will be true. We believe not in how little work, but how much; not in hour few hours, but how many. America must not grow soft. -J. Kindleberger.

Sermon On The Mount

Religious notice in Southern newspaper one hundred years ago:

The Reverend Mr. Blaney will preach next Sunday in Dempsey's Grove at 1O o:clock A.M., and at 4 o'clock P.M. Between sermons, the preacher will run his sorrel mare, Julia, against any nag that can be trotted out in this region, for a purse of $10o.

Just Like Dad

Willie: "Gee, Dad. There's a man at the circus who jutops on a horse, slips underneath, catches hold of its tail, and finishes up on the horse's neck. Think of it !"

Father: "Shucks, Son. That's nothing. I did all those things the first time I ever tried to ride a horse."

Protective

Two visitors to the Virginia mountains observed a wo.man dousing the reclining figures of two lanky mountain men with water. She had just emptied the third bucket full over them when she noticed the interest of her visitors. "Keqrs the flies off'n 'em," she explained.

Flu

Before I ever heard of "flu," each year I had a cold or tqto, But used goose grease and turpentine, and very soon the cold was fine.

Now every time I catch a cold, it is the "flu," relentless, bold, And forty-seven medicines can't break its strangle hold.

I wish that I had never heard Of "flu," which whips me with a word. I might be sadly out of date, but say, I'd be a lucky bird.

Cheeriness

Cheeriness is a thing to be more profoundly grateful for than all that genius wer inspired or talent ever accomplished. Next to natural, spontaneous cheeriness, is deliberate, intended, and persistent cheeriness, which we can create, can cultivate, and can foster and cherish so that after a few years the world will never suspect that it was not a hereditary gift.-Helen Hunt Jackson.

BEN FRANKLIN'S LETTER

In July, 1775, Benjamin Franklin wrote a letter to Williarn Strahan, a member of the British Parliament, whom he had lnrown for years, and with whom he had fallen out. The letter was shortened like a Roman sword, and sharp. ened to a fine point. It read:

"You and I were long friands. You are now my enemy, and I am Yours, B. Franklin."

LIF'TING

To those who think, as they travel life's road, This beautiful secret is known, That whenever we lift another man's load. In some way we lighten our own.

Worries

Not one of us is without worries of some kind. But worrying never solves any problems. Worry eats into a man's mind; affects his disposition; afrects his ability to work well and safely. Some things deserve our attention. Others should be ignored. Decide what should be ignored and what should be faced with absolute frankness: and don't worry about either.

A Conversationalist

The officer came upon a colored driver who was giving his horse a severe beating, trying to make him pull.

"Don't whip him that way," the officer said. "Talk to him."

So the darkey turned to the horse, dropped his whip, and in conversational tone, began:

"Mistuh hawse! Ah comes fum New Orleans. Whah does you come fum?"
