V HOW TO SPEND MY DAYS In the Year 1913 Better than I Did in the Year 1912. This the year of 1913, 3G5 days, each containing 12 golden hours set # with 6b diamond minutes. The most' of them I'm going to make good use j nf in hplninc- others and helDinz my- j r o . _ self. While at school I'm going to be ' obedient to my teacher and give her, as little trouble as possible. I'm go-j ing to be kind to my schoolmates,! helping them in any way I can, I am j going to prepare my lessons at home j and practice my music every chance j I get so that I may improve and the money spent for it will not be use-; , lessly spent. When school is out j I'm not going to sj>end vacation in, idleness: 1 am going to study some j and read some good books. it is better for the mind to wear out than to rust out." I am going to sew on my lost buttons and darn my own tears, so that mother or sister will not have it to do. I am going to help raise chickens and other poultry, plant and raise vegetables for the table, plant and cultivate flowers,for they make home so much brighter. Later, I am going to help with the canning and putting up of vegetables, preserves and jellies, so we can have them for lunch when school starts again. I am going to help cook and milk the cows, and do anything that comes to hand, not be- j cause I have to, but because l lute to. I am going to church as often as I can and I am going to prepare my Sunday-school lessons well and get all out of them that I can. I am going to pay strict attention to the preacher, so that 1 can tell other folks that do not go to church what he says, that they may get the benefit of it as well as myself. When Labor day comes for the orphanages I am going to work for some one and get money to help the little orphans. If I have a holiday off and I go to spend the day with a friend I'm AniAtr fKn gOing to Ue pieilSUIIt auu ciijuj uk day, and try to make others do the same. I' I hear of some one being1 sick I am going to try to visit them and take some flowers or something to try and cheer them up. When vacation is over I am going back to school again to welcome my teachers and many, many things that will make me more useful than I have been before. I am a pupil of the Johnsonville High school. Salue Haselden, Hemingway, S C. The best way to spend the days of mi ?i r fa iyio is ior every uuy nuj jg'11 ?<" and be better in every respect. Every child should be more obedient to their teacher, more thankful and kind to their friends, also more obedient and loving to their parents; always try to be happy and make everyone happy we can. * On Sunday we should go to church and listen attentively to what the minister says. Always try and know our Sunday-school lessons as we can learn something new and good if we study. We should speak more kindly to everybody and not keep an evil against anyone nor speak evil of them. Try and give up our own pleasures, if it will make some one else happy. Next, we should go to * 5? al: scnooi every aay 11 nouuug prevents, as everyone should try and get an education. Children should always begin school the first day, go neat and tidy. We should always get up soon so as to get out in the fresh air, as it helps us to feel better and be more healthy. Always try to make the best of each day as it comes to us and do some deed of kindness to seme one around us or away. We should also try and know our lessons better every day, and try not to be tardy and always behave well. We should read good,helpful books,think kind thoughts and not use any profane language; think before we speak, never tell things we hear unless we know it to be the truth. When our friends are in trouble we should give them all the help we can. We should never say anything to hurt any one's feelings. Always try and do unto others as we wish to be done by them. We should also be kind to dumb animals and not kill innocent birds. As the poet wisely says: Look not mournfully into the past, It comes not back again, Wisely improve the present, it is tnine. Student of Benson Graded school, Fowler, S C. Alma Duke. I am going to try to live better in the year 1913 than the year 1912. On Sunday morning I am going to get up soon and get ready to go to O }?.. nnUnnl onrl \x7H0n T en tn Ouuuajr "acuvsvi, unu ??>.v?. ? church I will not stand out on the church yard when services are going on. I am in my seat in the front of the church. I try to get all out of Sunday-school and preaching that I can. I want to live so that I can lead others out of darkness into light. 1 am going to try to he kinder to my sisters and brothers than I ever have before. I am going to obey my parents better than I ever have before. I am going to ask God p. to help everybody to live more fr r the upbuilding of His kingdom here on earth and I think that he will help some one to live more for him. I am going to Hughes school, in the fifth grade. Duraxt Hughes. Venters, S C. Wn oil ??V?Aiilrl nn avorv mnr.1.

Make a good resolution or new year's day and try at least tc make some one happy by doing some kindly deed each day. We could speak something kind to all we meet and mark it with cheerfulness aj.d truth. We who have plenty could make a little sacrifice for those that are less fortunate and not be selfish with what we have. Many things we haw bought because we saw and wanted them, not because we needed them. And probably that money would have made some one happy which was in need. It is not the presents one receives that mane her happy,but it is the number of people that we have made happy; for if we give nice presents to those who have plenty and none to those in need, it would not make us as happy as we would be if we give to those in need. So it is better to give than to receive. I think that on school days we should go to school and learn our lessons well. We should be very good in school and try not make trouble for anybody. If we wanl to be loved and have a good manj friends we should always be bright and cheerful, and be kind to everybody. On Sunday we should go to church and listen to what the preacher says In the afternoon we should read Sunday-school papers and some stories from God's own holy words. Do oui duty towards our parents, and, first of all, to God. Say your prayers every night and morning and trust ir God only to help us through. So, I am going to try to help make every body happy, be a better sister anc playmate. So, take fresh courage i l:a.*. 1 ^ Ka q Iviftar nunil | IltllC UlCUUd, auu k/v a pupn than that in 1912.

Benson, S C, I think the happiest days can be spent in the year of 1913 by going to school and studying hard to make your grade during the year. I studj hard from the time I start unti school closes. It is the greatest o! pleasures to me to go to school the last day and get my report saying 1 am promoted to the next grade. It makes my heart jump for joy. 1 have seen children go to school and do not study their lessons, and when they are not promoted to the nexl grade they get rpad and say the teacher has cheated them, but that is not the way, you cannot be promoted without studying hard for it. I am a little girl of Cedar Swamp Graded school, in the fifth grade and ten years old. Mable Tyler, Benson, S C, I am going to make 1913 the best year of my life. I shall study hard and learn my lessons so when I go to school I can go looking happy, and nnf lnolcintr sad hpr*aiiso I do not know my lessons. We have an hour every day at school to study and during this time I am going to study for the evening lessons or the next day. In the evening after school I am going to study my lessons and when I get through I am going to do my work,if I have any. If I get through in time with my lessons and work I will play with my friends. If anyone drops anything I wiil pick it up for them, or if anyone gets hurt T Ml J i.L!

After Sunday-school I am going to church and listen to the preacher, so if my parents ask me what the preacher preached about, I can tell them.
