March Is the first moath of the spring-.
But little warm weather does It t>rliig.
SPRING
Gay lovely spring is hero at last;
When northward fly the birds so :
fast.
The snow drop lifts ita head up
high
Tc catch the breezes floating by.
Now bluer daily grows the sky;
While fleecy clouds go drifting by; |
Warm sunshine wakes the flowers
from sleep.
Wee crocuses and violets peep.

"LUCK"
Hollo, Old PaL How goes your
uck today? That question or one
try similar to it is often asked
f one person by another. And it
s asked in all consistency, for luck
urely must obtain. The New
Standard Dictionary defines luck as
hat which chances to a person,
whether for good or ill, an event
egarded as casual, and affecting
rr tending to affect a person's in
estst or happiness.
The great Napoleon applied for
■verv vacant position, in tho army
or seven years before lie was Te
ognized; but moanwliile ha studied
vith all his might, supplementing
what was considered a, thorough
military education, by; researches
and reflections which in later
yeax3 enabled him to teach the art
of war to veterans who had never
dreamed of his novel combinations.
Bad luck was all that kept Napoleon)
from getting a position in, the army,
for the fact of his earnest desire to
gain more knowledge by research
and reflections proves that he was
worrthv and capable,—as you know
from history.
Two men with equal knowledge
of mining go projecting, each
alone. One leaves town three weeks
before the other. The first goes
into a certain part of the counrty
and, we'll say; on to a certain hill
side. He looks about and picks
around but finds nothing of any
value. The second travels ovc-t the
exact same route and onto the
same hillside. His toe catches on
a twig and he falls. He turns
around with cursca on his lips to
investigate the cause of his fall.
But his curses turn, to exclamations
of joy when he sees quartz. He
investigates and finds it is a ledge.
He chips off some small pieces
aud finds that they bet-T gold. He
stakes a claim and returns to re
cord it. His samples assay well,
and he has found a fortune where
the first man failed.
Can you say that the first
was not awake? No, for in that
casg the second was not awake
either, because he had to stumble
before he found wealth.
Was it carelessness on the part
of the first? No, for the second
was careless too—and I guess he
musf have been careless for he had
to fall to find wealth.
Then what are you going to call
it? It was LUCK, pure and simple
JOSEPH PEDERSEN,
