Shine Where You Are.
0
Don’t waste your time in longing
- v For bright, impossible thing;
Don’t sit supinely yearning
For the swiftness; of angel’s wings;
Don’t spurn to be a rush light
Because you are not a star;
But brighten some bit of darkness
By shining just where you are.
There is need of the tiniest candle;
As well as the glasi$h sun;
The humblest deed is ennobled
When it is worthily done;
Yoa may never be called to brighten
The darkened regions afar,
Sc fill, for the day, your mission
By shining just where you are.—Sel.

Did you ever figure the cost of a weekly newspaper at one dollar a year? It proves that this expense is but twenty
»
five cents for thirteen w eeks, eight and a third cents a month, less than two cents a week, a quarter section of one
cent a day! Do you compare the expense of this newspaper with your tobacco bill or other indulgence which you
might forego with profit? No citizen can afford to bs without a local newspaper. The local newspaper i$ worth : \,
many times the remarkably low subscription pn.ee ask. •v.

Don't have a “grouch” against

There’s no exhilaration that
can equal the Deling a man sen-
satfcs after a particularly hard job
has been got out the way bv be¬
ing done right.
The differe ce between enthusi¬
asm and j balt-hearedncoS is the
difference between a big, fat en¬
velop on pay..dav and a salary
that gets smaller in the eyes of
the man who is always looking
for, but never vorking for a raise.
Enthusiasm! i hat’s the thing
that builds bridges and tunnels
through mountains. One enthusi
,aslic employe" in h organization
is worth an irmy of wishers for
six o’clociv and Saturday after¬
noon.
And there can be no enthusi
asm unless von are heart, head,
and hand in league with your
work.
The man who views his daily
work as part ot his dailey self is
the man who accomplishes things.
The man who performs his duties
in a spirit of “let’s get rid of these
pesky matters” is the man vou
never hear making progress. Put
vour heart into your work.—Se
