YOUR PAPER You say lt ls "hard ttmeB." You will find many to agreo-wlth you. It is un doubtedly a time railing for genu ine economy; not a time to waste money. But do not tc ted into a falso economy and stint yourself of tiilugs that are of so much valun to you aa a really good newspaper. .Such a paper as The Observer, or others that could be mentioned, ls worth to any thinking man Ot woman many times its cost. To be without a newspaper in these stirring times of the 20th century ls to be almost out of the world- a hermit, a recluse, cut off from a knowledge of the great eventn that are inking place ou the earth and from interest in the marvelous move ments that are demanding the atten tion and sympathy and help of all who love UK ir fellow man. And, so, not with an altogether selfish motive, wo would urge every one to keep up his paper, and thus keep up with the world In which he lives.-Newberry Observer. WAIT FOR HER, BOYS! The girl who is unkind to her mother isn't worth a tinker's dog-gone. This isn't written in any part of the Bible, but it's written In the history of thous ands ot misfit homes. If one of you boys ever run across afgirl with hor face full: of Toses; with .eyes that would dim the lustre of a Ci dorad o sky and with a voice thal would muke tho song v>f an angel seem discordant, and she suya, oh, oho comes to thu door: "I can't go for a few minutes. I've got to help.mother with the dishes," dont give her up. Stick to her like a nurr to a mule's tall. Just sit down on the door-step and wait. If she Joins you in two or three minutes, so much the better; but if you have to stay there on the doorstep for a half hour, or an hour, you Just wait for her. If you don't somebody els? win and In time you'll be sorry. For you'll rea lise what you have lost. Walt for her, boy. She's worth lt.
