Boys Must Have Something To 1

Curtis* Education.
The devil not only finds things j
for idle hands to do, but he finds i
thoughts for idle brains to think and
words for idle tongues to "*
say. All of the vices of childhood
are nourished in idleness,
and almost anything that prevents
the idleness will also pre- (
vent the vice, It is the fact that .
our citv children, at present time. 1
have nothing to do in the time
when they are not in school, 1
that makes the play-ground
problem the great problem that
it is.
The habit of idleness, for men i
in youth, grows naturally in the adult
into loaiing and all that ^
series of crimes that are attendant
thereto. "The boy without 1
a playground is father to the J
man without a job," and the j
man who is not willing to work, finds
it necessary to make his j
living in some easier way, which 1
can only come through begging, t
gambling, stealing, or some
other illegitimate method. 1
Suckers
When a boy we used to go
down to the creek and hunt a
place where the water had overflowed
and filled a depression,
get into the hole and stir the
mud until the fish would have to
come to the top in search of
clearer water, and then we'd
catch the suckers. Watch the
politicians attempt to muddv wa
ters this summer in an effort to
catch suckers.?Gaffney Ledger.
Card of Thanks
We desire to express by this i
method our thanks for the kind
ness shown us during the recent
illness and death of our child, t
May God's blessings rest richly a
upon each one.
Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Jenkins.
A couple of Chinese were in ^
di'Ced by a mission worker to
attend Sunday school. The
teacher passed a collection box.j For
several Sundays the China
men contributed their nickels.
At last one of them looked up
when the box a^ain came his t
way and asked: "What a matter? I
God bloke allee time?"
