HAMPTON HIGH SCHOOL
Dear Mr. Horton. —We sure did
appreciate your visit to our school
last week, and hope you won’t
wait so long to visit us again.
We have some tine teachers
and we all love them. We are
getting along fine in our school
work, and hope we can continue
to.
lam fourteen years old and in
the eighth erade. We play bas
ket ball sometime and the boys
play football.
Wishing you a Merry Chistmas
and a happy New Year.
I am yours sincerely,
Thelma Hilley.
MT. BETHEL SCHOOL.
I, too, was disappointed last
week as I turned to the school
column in our paper and found
that the expected teachers letter
was missing.
Possibly others were like my
self, they would give the space to
someone more competent, some
one who could say things worth
while, or possibly they thought
they did’nt have time.
Though my own life is a busy
one and experience in teaching
is short, my heart is in the work
and I will do my best to write a
few lines. Don’t know whether
to take a subject or not. I fear I
couldn’t do one justice. I believe
will talk to you about “heroes.”
In fancy I see a number of little
hands raised. Yes every little boy
or girl who studies history and
some who do not know what the
word hero means. We at once
associate the word Columbus,
George Washington and all the
way down the list to our Ameri
can heroes in the recent world
war.
Are these all the kinds of heroes
we know? No there are many
about us today who are just as
courageous just as brave who will
die unrecognized,
There are fathers and mothers
who are fighting hard to keep the
wolf from the door, and to keep
little folks comfortably clad and
fn books, tablets and pencils that
little minds may be trained and
little liyes molded in the school
room.
Those who do thi s uncomplain
ingly are real heroes, so teachers
lat us not be to harsh if Johny
doesn’t always have a tab lets or
pencil. There are teachers who

We are grateful to you who have

prosperity.

go into the school-room with n
prayer in their hearts that they
may do their very best with their
responsibility, whomever have onj
of encouragement, who never
know if they have pleased or dis
pleased.
Listen, patrons, it doesn’t cost
anything and it may means much
to your child, if you will go to see
his teacher, talk to his teacher
about him.
If the teacher does a wrong
don’t be a coward and tell some
one else but be brave and fair,
give him a chance to do better or
defend himself as the case may be.
The teacher who meets every
condition and uncomblainingly
presses on is another hero. We
would not forget the little fellow
who goes to his class with the lit
tle fellow, who goes to his class
with the assurance that he has
done his very best but for some
cause the other little boy always
gets the nod of approval or words
of praise, the swallows hard, goes
back to his desk to try again. Is
he not a hero? Parents, teachers,
little children and all, let us watch
for the heroes and pray God that
he may quicken our eyes to rec
ognize and appreciate the heroes
of this life, and on the other hand,
if those who we expect to help us,
disappoint us, let us as the little
boy did swallow the lump that is
n our throat and be a hero, real
izing that in heroism is strength

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot roach
the diseased portion of the ear. There la
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that Is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when It Is entlroly
closed. Deafness Is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall’s Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any caß« of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall’a Catarrh Medicine. Cir
culars free. All Druggists. 75c.

“Friends”
(BY ELAM FRANKLIN DEMPSEY. D. D.)
Text, John 15:14, “Ye are my
friends.”
(Vip cap! pvnlpitipH hie
W« » O 1,1 WUi Puut L •»< VV4 ““j
happiness and success by sa>ing,
“i had a friend.”
The literal meaning of the word
friend is “lover” for it bespeaks an
affinity of heart.
It is true that blood is thicker
than water, but “there is a friend
that stiekelh closer than a broth
er” because kinship is accidental,
while friendship is a choice.
“Friendship bespeaks recipro
cated duty,” and Abraham is cal -
eJ tlie friend of God because he
did his spiritual duty to God in
trusting Him, even though his
mind was wrapped in a thick
daiknessof ignorance and con
fusion.
We never think ot friends with
out recalling Damon and Pythia,
David and Jonathan, Jesus and
John.
Friendship has been decorated
by Jesus with words more la
spleiident than any medal, “Great
er love hath no man than this,
that a man lay down his life for
his friends.”
To all His disciples He has given
words most precious, "Ye are my
friends, if ye do whatsoever I c )tn
mand you. Henceforth I call you
not servants — Out friends.”
"What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear;
What a a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer.”
