Small Things We often overlook and neglect the small things, forgetting that all big things are made up from small things. A piece of machinery Is built of big Wheels and little wheels, big cogs and little cogs. Without the little cogs, the big piece of machinery is useless. Little things are often the big things in life. If you are trustworthy and reliablo In small things you will be reliable and worthy of confidence when big things are of fered you. Big men started by do ing little things, Big business

i bouses had their beginning in small stores. Big banks started as small I banks. Lincoln started a little way. There was nothing about Lincoln when he was twenty-one years old that would indicate he would be a big man before he died. Lincoln did the small things with the same-degree jot honesty and attention that he later performed the big tUng of saving the nation. That's why he was early called "Honest Abe," If you pay attention to little things, big things will not seem insurmountable when they confront you. By doing little things you fcarn how tp do bigger things; you become bigger; the world looks smaller; ultimately, even the big gest thing does not appear so big, for you have the satisfaction of knowing that you can accomplish It.

A Fighting Chance By "fighting chance" is meant that a cause is almoHt lost but that by , fighting hard and valiantly the persons engaged in the struggle may overcome obstacles and win. It means that hard work, valiant

struggles are ahead of the persons involved. , Every boy and girl has a fighting chance to succeed in life. The term implies that there is a fight ahead and that only the valiant and brave will succeed. By success is meant not the number of dollars you can accumulate, but the success you can attain in leading a happy and contented life that is satisfied with work well performed and tasws conscientiously accomplished. Often young men and women are tempted to do the dishonest thing to accomplish success. If you succumb to the temptation you are not fighting a fair fight and one that will leave you happy when you grow old. If you succeed by dishonesty and crooked methods, you are not succeeding, but are only deceiving yourself into believing that you are succeeding. Success means happiness, and happiness can never exist where the conscience is troubled by the thought of dishonest deeds done to accomplish mjccchs.

Building Right The most important thing about a building is its foundation. If the foundation is built with cheap material, if the workmen do not do honest work, the whole structure rests on a busis that will not withstand the shocks of tempest and time. So also in life. If boys and girls do not build a sound foundation, their lives will be ruined. The foundation of life is character. A stern moral ' sense of right, and wrong and u. will power to do. only the right .thing, even if it costs time and money,. Is a good foundation on which to build your careers.

WOOLLY DOG AND TEDDY BEAR I One night when the clock struck I the hour of midnight, Teddy Bear land Woolly Dog, who lived in Ihe playroom, began to talk to each other. "1 think it is a shame that we never get out of the room," said j .Woolly Dog. "Our little mistress takes Flora, the doll, out in her carriage and she sees all that is going on in the world, while we stay right here and see nothing at all." "I know it," replied Teddy Bear, "but I used to get out and see things, too, so is hard for me because I know I am missing a lot, while you know only what you hear and that is not so bad." "Of course, that all may be true," replied Woolly Dog, "but I don't understand enough about, what you are trying to make me understand to make me feel any happier. What I want is to get out of this roern and roam about the house." "Well, the door to the playroom is open tonight. Why don't you run along? You will have until day light." Woolly Dog rolled over to the door; lie was on four little wooden wheels,. "It is all dark out here," he said. "Are you afraid?" asked Teddy Bear. "If you are I'll go along with you. I'm not afraid of anything. Bears are very brave, you know." "So are dots," replied Woolly Dog. "Out I should like to have you come, if you want to." "All right, I'll go along with you," said Teddy Hear. "I have not been outside this room for many a day. I am not as stylish as I used to be. You know. Woolly Dog, it is a terrible thing to be out of style." "Is it?" asked Woolly Dog, looking out in the dark hall "Well, I don't know whether 1 am out of style or not, but no one will see us in the dark, so come along." Teddy Bear and Wooly Dob kept eloso together, and Woolly Dog asked Teddy Hear to put one of his arms nl.out his neck, because he had to keep his feet on the bosrd he was fastened to. Woolly Dog was glad when they were down the stairs, and rolled along the hall feeling very safe Just then the clock in the hall struck one, and Woolly Dog jumped and Teddy Dear was so scared he tumbled right over. "What was that?" asked Woolly Dog. "I fa. Ha." laughed the clock, "look at Teddy Bear and Woolly Dog. I frightened them." "Where are they?" asked the cat, who had been asleep in front of the lieplace, but. had awakened when the clock struck. "Over there by the stairs; they have just come down; I saw them coming and I stuck just to see them jump." Puss got up ami walked over to where Woolly Dog and Teddy Dear stood trembling. She licked Teddy Hear and Woolly Dog, and over they went on. their backs, fridghtened out of their wits. "Stuffed," sniffed puss with a toss of her head. "Of course, they are stuffed," laughed the clock, "but there is a mouse, Miss Puss, and he isn't stuffed. Teddy Bear and Woolly Dog got up just in time to see Puss pounce upon poor little mousey, and then waited to see no more. Teddy Bear pulled Woolly Dog along with him and fled up the stairs as fast as his little hind legs would carry him. The clock laughed and laughed. ' "Oh, dear, it was too funny, "it told Puss a little later. "You should 1 have seen them, they thought jou were a wild animal, I guess, when: you caught the mouse, and I am sure they expected you to take; them next. Oh, dear! Oh, dear! how funny it was." I The next night Teddy Bear and! Woolly Dog told the toys all about the wild animal that lived downstairs, and ate up everybody that i went down the stairs, and when : any of the toys were discontent! and wanted to go outside the play-! room all that was needed was for some one of the other toys to say, "You remember the wild animal. Teddy and Woolly Dog saw," and;

andman

no more was heard about leaving the playroom. "I think it was the cat we saw," whispered Teddy Bear one night to Woolly Dog, when the door of the playroom was left open again. "I don't believe she will harm us; "lets do out again." But Woolly Dog shook his-head. "No!" he said. "She said I was stuffed and she might want to see what I am stuffed with. No, Teddy, I will spend the rest of my days right here unless my little mistress takes me out. Then I know she will protect me from wild animals. And you take my advice, Teddy Bear, dan't you go either; even bears could be eaten by such an animal as we saw that night. I wish that door was not open; I would feel safer."

Once Christoso made his way up to the priest while he was reading mass and waved his paws frantically to attract his attention. The priest was very much surprised.
