wooD

Man has ever hastened to cover barren coldness, first with skins, next with hangings, and then with wood,- the intimate, sympathetic material that has been man's friend since the beginning of time, used in the peasant's humble one-room cot, ceiled in wood and decorated with quaint carvings-yet deemed noble enough to house his God, for Solomon, although stone and clay lay at his feet, searched the almost treeless area of the Promised Land that he might have wood for the Temple.

Mark Twain On Friendship

"The holy passion of Friendship is of so sweet and steady and loyal and enduring a nature that it will last through a whole lifetime, if not asked to lend money."

One On Dad

A young man just arriving home from college, wearing a loud vest and a tie that spoke for itself, met his father at the door. A look of disgust crossed the elder's face, as he viewed the clothing of his junior.

"Son, you look like a jackass,' he said.

Just then a near neighbor entered, and beheld the youth.

"Boy,'' he said, I remember the first time your father came home from college, and you look just as he did."

"So father was just telling me," replied the youth.

Where Genius Is Found

There is nowhere in the land any home so remote, so humble, that it may ndt contain the power of mind and heart and conscience to which nations yield and history submits its processes. Nature pays no tribute to aristocracy, subscribes to no creed of caste, renders fealty to no monarch or master of any name or kind. Genius is no snob. It dbes nct run after titles or seek by preference the high circlps of society. It affects humble company as well as great'. It pays no special tributes to universities or iearned societies or conventional standards of greatness, but serenely chooses its own comrades, its own haunt, its own cradle, and its own life of adventure and training.

-Woodrow Wilson.

Foreman: "How is it that altho you and Rastus started digging at the same time, has a bigger pile of dirt than you ?"

Sambo: "Why, boss, he's a bigger hole."
