Times certainly have changed and the boys have changed with them Twenty years ago a boy was willing to spend a year, sometimes three learning a trade. Do you see tlhem do ing that now? Not much. A lad strikes you today for a job, atndl if you sug goat thathe work a week or a mnonth I for "experience" he'll give you the laugh. He must have wages from the moment hie doffs his cap, and half the time he won't even do that, but loafs I around the store or silop with his hat on the back of his head a'nid his pipe .between his teeth. He canget $1.50 a day washing your windows or car rying ashes from your furnace, so what's the use of wasting time learn ing a trade? There isn't a business in Welsh to day that isn't yearning for one of the old-fashioned boys who will. treat his elders with politeness and take an in- F terest in the work beyond waiting for the clock to mark up quitting time. It's Saturday afternoon cff and dou ble pay for every minute over-time. He doesn't want to learn the business; he has no ambition to own it some (lay. He makes fun of the dull town and hikes to the city at. every oppor-le tunity. He can't see the dear little girl next ý door who helps mother, but rushes to 1: one of the near-by cities to chase a "skirt." " The best girls on this old earth are right here about himt; girls that are growing up to make true and noble wnon" hbut he c.hases the "clickens" of the city streets. "There is nothing to keep him home" I so the poor little fool wastes his time, his money and his strength trying to t be a tin-horn sport, a "regular twelve o'cloc'k feller" in Jennings or Lake (ltarles. To greet your neighblors with a clear eye, anti to owe no man anything; to build a home for the girl you went to, school with, and sit with your feet under your own table, occas:sionally adding a leaf for the new member of the family who sits in a high-chair and puts bread and milk into his nose and eyes, is something worth while. Stick to mother and the girls who smile at you on your own streets, and let the city "skirts" that walk the streets, walk alone. There's nothing in chasing the "chickens." 0 ~0t II II i 0 00 0 I Am The Country Weekly 0 0 .----- 0 SI amnt the ('ountry \\ekly. 0 t I ;a i the frit'nd of the family, 0 , tlhe bringer of tidings from 0 0I other friends; I speak to the 0 u honme in the evening light of 0 0 sulimer's vine-clad parch or 0 t the glow 'of winter's lamp. 0 0 I help to imake this evening 0 0 hour; I record the great anti 0 0i the small, the varied acts of 0 0 thle days anld weeks that go to (U 0 make tip life. 0 1t I am for and of the home; I -1 U follow those who leave humble 0 U hbeginnings; whether they go 0 0 to greatness or to the gutter, 0 Ot I take to them the thrill of 0 U old days, with wholesome ries- 0 0 sages. 0 1 speak the language of the 0 11 common man; my words are 0 0 fitted to his understanding. 0 0' My congregation is larger 0 0 than that of any church in my 0 0 town; my readers are more 0 0 than those in the school.
