Sttptrhen you come to thfnk of it,
iere are a good many puzzling1 things
tvojhred In the problems connected

Messenger, ohe opens it} of course,
dadoes not wait until he calls, even
tffce nows who the candy cofnesj
before opening it, and knows;

KEEP BRAKES IN ORDER
AT THE approach to every dangerous
turn of a state road is a
sign which reads:
"GO SLOWl"
The autoraobilist who has good sense
and good brakes heeds the warning. He
gets around the turn without anything
happening to him.
The speed maniac, or the man whose
brakes are out of'order,, keeps, right
on. And we usually read of one or.
both in the accident columns of the
newspapers, sooner or later.
The road we all must take is pretty
well marked with warnings, although
it takes experience to read some of
them.
If we have the brake called will
power, and keep it in trim, we have
nothing to fear from the dangerous
places.
If our judgment is bad and our will
power likely to give way we never get
where we are going, except In a very
badly damaged condition.
nn/ioclnn fftr cnoh rrpnt I
mere rs uu wvaoivu iv? uuv~ 0- ??
hurry that the warning signs must be
over run.
On the road to wealth, and especially
the road to pleasure, the warnings
are very abundant.
Yet thousands and thousands of
people run past them every day, with
the usual disastrous results.
There is little enough time in tne
average life. We must all work rapIdly
If we are to g?'t a good lifetime's
work accomplished in the working
years that are allotted to us.
But we can always sldw down at the
risky corner, provided we keep our will
power in condition, and use the judgment
that ought to he a part of our
make-up.
The "too much play" turn in the
road is more dangerous than the "too
much work" corner, but it is well to
slow down at both of them.
. Then the "overindulgence" and "late
hour" spots call for almost a halt.
Read all the signs, and observe
them.
It ^s delightful to speed along the
road and feel that we shall get where
we are going in jig time.
But many speeders who do not see
or heed the warning, never get where
they are going at all.
Xrid when' they are piled up in the
hospital or the snaitarium or told by a
grav^ffcced doctor to bid their families
a last farewell, they begin to see the
sense In Stringing these signs along the
road, afcd to wish they had tept tneir

LYRICSOF LIFE
By DOUGLAS MALLOCH
THE year is coming to a close;
The days are falling one by j
one
Like petals of a dying rose,
A bloom that still in beauty goes j
When all her garden days are done.
And what is life? It is a year.
However many years it span?
In childhood's springtime to appear
To live the summer of a man.
And then to feel the autumn here.
And what is death? The final da\
Of life's short year, a day like theso
When summer puts her garb away
And winter winds begin to play
Their wild, tempestuous harmonies.
I
T.ivft lilro rhp roso Tho roses bloom
Not for themselves hut for the earth.
Pink lamps that garden walls illume?
A decoration for our mirth.
A holy solace for the tomb.
Die like a rose: Its petals fall,
But it is sweetness to the end
un, n is someuimg. an?r mi,
To be a rose beside the wall,
Beside the way to be a friend.

I Something to |
Think About
By F. A. WALKER
THE ENNOBLING QUEST
SINCE the banishment of Adam and
Eve from the garden of Eden,
there has been a quest among
their kind which has continued with
UUl llil^iuiiooivu. ,
In this question there is at every
turn of our hands and every shift of
our eyes, signs of fear, doubt and
greed. Time lightens not the labor of
It, but the chase continues. All humans
are in the struggle, seeking
something?a cherished ideal or some
onhefanna TtrhJr>h thov WAIllrf
IttUglUlt; OUUi)WUV,v .. ? ? |
gladly c'.tsp to their bosoms and call
their own. But the reward Is for the
faithful.
The faithful and those who heed the
teachings of the Golden Rule plod
along uncomplainingly, steadily and silently
like the tides. They accept
conditions and do their best.
They know not the petrifying fear
that makes moral cowards of the laggards,
who shirk duty and are !
ashamed to soil their hands with the
grime ef honest toll.
The commandment which says, "six
days shalt thou labor" has no terrors
for them, so they shoulder their burdens
and march on to the end with
clean souls and smiling faces.
These are the real workers, the salt
of the earth, the faithful and the
i trusting, the builders of nations,
i Life to them is endurable. It is
sweet in the morning when the sun
gilds the east, seductive at night when
they are tired and sleep comes unbid;
den and carries them to the land of
dreams.
I They make agreeable friendships
among their co-workers, and always
have friends at home who are glad to
welcome them.
Their quest resolves Itself into one
Iaio onrl In hnldinc fnsf to divine
precepts, it soon becomes their absorbing
ambition. Their hearts are attuned
to heaven's music.
They have no wish to pile up gold,
no greed that sours life, no fear of
the outcome of their endeavors, no
preference, except to do the will of the
?nn?tpr nnd natientlv await his re
ward at. the end of tfielr earthly journey.
The idle know nothing of the supreme
joys of those who labor and
love. If you would have for your own
the happiness which pays the richest
dividends in life, let the ennobling
quest of labor and love he yours until
the end.
