We have heard such a conversation more than once. So the boy stops trying to get through his courses successfully., He loafs, flunks his examinations and apâ€" pears again the next fall to take his first year in high school over again.

Taxâ€" payers grumble about the high cost of their schools and then contribute to that expense by encouraging their own children in a laziness that wastes the time and the effort that hardâ€"working teachers are giving to the schools. If parents could be made to pay for the cost of teaching their children the same subjects twice over, we should probably sego a sudden improvement in the quality of schcol work. , Besides the money cost to the comâ€" munity there is the harm done to the character of a boy who in his formaâ€" tive years is allowed to fall into the habit of listlessness and indifference. A life can easily be ruined by the deâ€" generation of moral fibre so induced. It is not hard for parests to find out what sort of work thei?t boys and girls are doing in school, and a little firmâ€" neses on the subject is usually enough to keep the youngsters up to the by no means inaccessible standards of our public schools.

A partnorship between the city man and the city boy is not a common thing, but city men have often formed relations with country boys in an efâ€" fort to stimulate the boy‘s interest in better farming, and to make him, and his father through him, better farmers. In most places, where there are Rotary, Kiwanis and similar organizaâ€" tions, such coâ€"operation is in evidence.

The recent anriversary number of the Kiwanis Club, a special number, referred to many manâ€"boy farm enterprises. These activities are supplementary to the boy‘s and girls‘ club work, and are usually in connection with it. They not only benefit the boy from a club work standpoint by enabling the boy to get a calf, seed, or pigs for his.proâ€" ject, but they furnish an added inâ€" centive to the boy in having a successâ€" ful business man back him up. He gains courage in his contact with the man, and puts in extra effort to make good his obligation to the man. It widens his horizon to have this conâ€" tact with someone outside of his parâ€" ticular sphere of living. Tho relationsrip also si of benefit to the man. In most cases it will reâ€" mind him of his days back on the farm, and the contact with the boy helps to keep alive the human element which the cares of life are sometimes likely to take away.

The now year enters hopefully, like all new years; the old year dies withâ€" cut regrets. The last of 1826, like the last of Mre. Cheyney, has been on its best behavior towards the fall of the curtain, but this belated repentance has certainly not redeemed iis preâ€" vious bad record. The best that can be said about the past twelve months is that they have been a testing time, and that we have come through rathâ€" er better than could reasonably been expoected. But a general strike, a coal strike, and a Cook rampant have been a high price to pay for the knowledge that John Buil can still show a leg when necessary, and is fairly sound in wind and limb when stormy weather overtakes him.

At the international wheat fair at Chicago lest month the prize for the finest wheat and oats exhibited went to Herman Trells, a grain farmer in the famous Peace River country in northwestern Canada. The interestâ€" ing fact about this award is that the grain was grown in the latitude of northern Labradcrâ€"as far north of Toronto, for example, as Toronto is north of Florida. The Peace River country still suffers from lack of railâ€" way faclities, but it has a remarkable soil and an exceedingly favorable cliâ€" mate, when we remember that it is only six hundred miles from the Arcâ€" tic Circle Wonderful is the process by which the chemistry of the body changes the food we eat into blood.

There is no better mannered man on this earth than a Spanish gentle man, gnd when he is extending hosâ€" pitality, your Spaniard, rich or poor, is at his best. It is not the extent or quality of the hospitality that matters, it is the exquisite grace with which it is tendered, the implied suggestion that your comfort is the host‘s first consideration. . . . The instinct of hospitality seems to be born in the Spanifird, and he cou-l trives when you are staying in his| house to put you at your edse and| leave you there. His formalities are| never aggressive, his kindness seemsl to come from the heart, and uhe| foreigner who enters Spain with a[ few good introductions will find it hard to outstay his welcome. . . . I With the best type of Spaniard the old forms are no mere empty words. His hospitality and generosity are a part of his honor and the dearest thing in life to him, and the catholicity of his kindness may be gathered from the fact that Spanish has but one word "amigo," to express both friend and acquaintance. It must not be supâ€" posed that Spanish hospitality is limited to those who can afford to disâ€" pense it. On the contrary, the very poor are delighted to do something for a stranger who is sympathetic. It may be no more than . . . an orange or a handful of olives, but there is some thiflg in the way in which the gift is offered that magnifies its intrinsic value a thousandâ€"fold. Even among those whose days are passed in ceaseâ€" less toil, who live far remote from the company of their fellowmen, you find evidences of the inborn courtesy that is one of the most striking charms of the complex Spanish character.â€"8.

In clean, bright Aluminum _ No such statement appears at the end of the Acts of the Apostles, but the Acts is clearly incomplete. What we have in that most useful book is a very few of the acts of a very few of the apostles, and of the apostle whose deeds are most fully reécorded an abrupt ending of the narrative, at alâ€" most its most exciting point. The story of Paul‘s arrest, imprisonment, voyage, shipwreck, sojourn on the island of Malta and arrival in Rome | is told with dramatic particularity; it \is evidently the work of an eyeâ€"witâ€" %ness. Then in two verses we are told ]that Paul lived for two years in a ‘rented house, a prisoner awaiting itrhl, but preaching freely to those who came to him. There the story !ends. The Gospel of the Incomplete Scholars are agreed that of the four New Testament narratives of the life of Jesus the Gospel according to John is much later than any of the other three. Its author was evidently faâ€" miliar with the earlier narratives, or some of them, and his work is both a supplement and an interpretation. But he does not tell us that he thinks his narrative at all complete. On the contrary, he closes his book with the words to the effect that Jesus said and did many other things, of which, if they were completely recorded, "the world itself would not contain the books." We do not know, and we never shall know, the whole story of the life of Jesus. Life itself is like that. At no stage do we find it finished. Evils die hard land rise again to confront the Chrisâ€" ‘tian after he supposes his work to ‘have been done.
