We note that some of the writ
ers are knocking Brother Tribble
which we believe to be wrong, |
and do not believe it is in accord \
ance with God’s word, even tho’
he may have made a mistake,
This is not the way the Bible
tells us to go at things. However
I v\ ish to say that if we had more
like Bro Tribble Jwe would have
a better country, and 1 shall ever
love that lovable disposition of
his and I can see more Christian
ity in his life than I can in some
of our selfish deacons and preach
ers who are trying to knock him.
and if they would cnly clean a
round their own door they would
not find so many faults to the
other fellow. So I think we
should at least remember that
the Wble says if he be as of God
you can’t stop him and if he is
not his work will come to an end

In no country is it more important to’have good manners
than in our own, and yet here there is a great deficiency and
care and instruction in this particular. Sometimes we cen
sure girls for laughing loudly in public, yet if they h ave never
been taught otherwise, how can we blame them? Sometimes
a girl will get on a crowded street car and make such caus
tic remarks that some man will finally feel compelled to give
her his seat. We are not excusing him. Perhaps he should
have done so in the first place, but the girl certainly cheap
ened herself and gave an unpleasant display of her disposi
tion.
Good manners are not in the least difficult to cultivate,
They mean nothing more than thoughtfulness for others. Con
tending too much for your rights stirs up the selfish feeling
of others, while a readiness to yield them awakens generous
sentiments ane leads to mutual accommodations. The greater
your advantages have been, the moie polite and considerate
you should be to others who are not so fortunate as to pos
sess the opportunities you have had. If you wish to be well
bred, you must carry your manners with you. Good breeding
is not a thing that can be laid aside and put on at pleasure.
True politeness is accompanied by the calm sel ( possession
which belongs to a noble simplicity of purpose, and unless
you cultivate it and exercise it upon all occasions and toward
all persons it wul never be a part of yourself.
CORRECT SPEAKING.
One ot the most pleasing things in young people is the
habit of’ correct # speaking. Let us advise all our young read
ers to acquire it in early life. The longer you live the more
difficult the acowrem*nt erf tmxi language is; and if the
golden age os youth, the proper season for the acquisition of
language is passed in abuse, the unfortunate victim, is very
properly doomed to talk slang all his life. Money is not nec
essary to procure this education. Every one has it in his
power. He has merely to use the language which he reads,
instead of the slang which he hears, to form his tastes from
the best poets and authors ot the country, to treasure up
choice phrases in his memory, and habituate himself to their
use, avoiding at the same time, that pedantic precision and
bombast which show the weakness of vain ambition rather
than the polish of an educated mind.
We are taught so many things in this world—science, lit
erature, history. Our school curriculums are full of the things
that others have learned, yet not one word teaches us how
to live and most of us spend our entire life running about like
frightened sheep trying to learn and lot of us die without
finding out. We use all our energy doing and have none left
for thinking or for being happy. I low much better it would
be if we could learn to go a little slower and stop and get our
bearings every day.
We are prone to think of age as an unlovely time, an un
desirable thing, but surely there are compensations in being
seventy years young. Life has taught us its lessons and we
are no longer assailed by doubt and uncertainty. Life has
brought to us no burden that we could not bear, and we can
face it serenely and fearlessly. We have earned the right by
years of labor and conflict, to do just as we please, and let.
the world fare on in its folly and strife, its storm and pass
ion, its work and wony. We have earned a right to the
stately surroundings that suit the dignity of age. If we do
not possess such surroundings, if the fine mansions, cai riages,
service, riches, that are so becoming in age, are not for us
still we may possess that no one can take from us —honor,
wisdom, experience and the grateful love and respect of the
younger generation.
Let us never forget that God made home among the tiist
things that he created. Before commerce and trade, laws and
statutes, thrones and altars, there were men and women,
fathers and mothers, brothers and sisters, lovers and friends,
hearthstones and homes.
