THE VIRTUE OF GRATITUDE
The cost of saying “Thanks” is not
very great. But it sometimes costs
a great deal not to say it. Not to say
it costs friends, self-respect and a sur
render of those sacred instincts which
give life its stability, and power and
sweetness. The one who says
“Thanks” is blessed with the virtue
of gratitude, is a king among his fel
lows, and a leader of his kind. He
possesses the first qualities necessary
t » manliness. Those qualities include
other rare qualities. That person is
like, a welcome beacon light on a dark
night,
a one.
The one who lacks this finer sense
is to be pitied. He soon becomes lone
ly and desolate. None care to serve
him. for he is unappreciative. He
lives a miserable life because he is
never awake to the fact that he is a i

that the football game should be put
off. But why not track and freshman

tween colleges certainly extend fur

A number of new families are mov
