The “school” usually met in the town hall, schoolhouse or per- haps the chapel of the church. It was presided ‘over by some one who had, at least, some slight kn6wledge| of music—sometimes very slight—} often the leader of the church choir. There was one grizzled Instructor, who prided himself on being able to bring out the best teat there was in his pupils. One evening he was try- ing to get the sofranos to reach high Cc. After repeated attempts, none of them was able to accomplish it. The teacher, not to be defeated, announc- ed: “Try to reach high © if you can, but if you can't, come as near to it as you can”—good logic, perhaps, but the result was not exactly harmony. The singing school teacher, how- ever, only expresged an idea that is as old as the hills. “Hitch your wagon to a star; strive to reach the high- est rung in the ladder; be filled with a great ambition to get to the top in whatever business or profession you are engaged. Probably you won't be able to get as high as you desire, but try for the top, anyway. The, cause of failure, In many cases, is not that one has not striven, but because. of low ideals. Many have, perhaps, arrived swiftly at the goal of their ambitions, but the hedght that they set out to reach was not a dominating one. With a good per- spective it will be seen that the dis- tance covered was not great. If the failures in life had set their eyes on the sun they would not have reached it, probably,, but they would have made greater advancement than they did, with a low ideal, Only one mgn in many millions can become President, but with the high- est office in the gift of his fellows az his incentive, many a man has otherwise reached fame who would not have been heard of, had he atriv- en for a lesser goal.

LJ . * * . * In a little fishing village on Cape Ann, Massachusetts, stands an old-! fashioned, quaint-looking church. She congregation is a small one some- times, during the winter months, numbering not over thirty oivenua.| In the summer, however, it is largely, augmented by the visitors of the! town. On the particular Sunday in mind, at the, close of the sermon, the min- imeer made the announcement: .. “The church needs painting bad- ly, on the outside. We haven't the means: to’ have it done by regular painters. YT am, therefore, going to call for volunteers to do .the work. We will provide the brushes, paint and ladders, and any man who can give an hour. or two, or more of his time on Thursday and Friday next to paint the church, we will be glad to have volunteer.” On the days mentioned the men of! the congregation did paint the church. | t was not done, probably, as well as professional painters would have done it, but by night it shone clean and bright in its new dress, a tribute to the interest that the men of that little fishing village took in their church. One couldn't belp thinking that if a little of ‘their spirit could be in- fused {nto our present-day life, what a delightful thing it would be for all concerned, and how far it would go toward allaying the present unrest. One of the chief causes of the high cost of living is recognized as under- preduction. , Every one seems to be striving ‘to get the most money they can In return for as Httle work as possible. ' Nor is this true only in industrial life. The serum of get but not give seems {o have permeated the entire body politic.

Tf is about time that the men and women of the present day awoke to, the fact that service is the only way | to obtain happiness and contentment. The time has come in our nationai life when every one must put their shoulder to the wheel, an o their duty, and then a little more. The men who painted that church, some of them, could ill afford té give the time from their regdlar business. But they id it cheerfully— there wes no need tall for service. | ‘The next time you are tempted not | to do that portion of work that falls! to your lot, think of those men in the Hittle fishing Village on the Cape, who gave their time without reward, that their church might be beautified and presérved.
