SMILE AND FORGIVE
One of the things we. the people, must learn in our
growing town is the gentle and withall helpful art of for
giveness.
By nature of man, he fights. The struggle for life
from the cradle to the grave is a fight—the nature of the
combat depending upon the wealth accumulated by one’s
forbears, the surrounding conditions and the ability of a
man to curb his ambitions and his temper.
By strange co-incidence the history of Seward has
been a fight from the day the first tree was cut cut for the
first tie of the railroad destined to finally connect with
the great interior.
Had it no tbeen for the fighting nature of those who
cast their lot here early in the game, progress would have
been even slower. In such struggle bitter enemities arise
and wrangling becomes a habit. The only way to over
come this habit is by administering now and then a little
horse sense lotion, accompanied by balm of forgiveness on
both sides. And while you are about it tie a couple of ex
tra corks to your sense of humor to insure it against sink
ing beneath the surface. Without humor, horse sense and
forgiveness you are doomed.
Smile and forgive. How many times? Well, there is
a book containing His message to man which says some
thing about seventy times seven, and if you lose count, be
gin again.

REAL SPIES ABOUND
Persons of Teutonic leanings tend to minimize the
existence of German spies in the United States, but do not
mislead the American officials to any extent.
The next time anyone says anything about the spying
ability of the Kaiser’s minions being overdrawn, just in
form him or her that a Germany spy was able to go di
rect to England by way of Holland, after the battle of Jut
land, get a report on the condition of the British ships en
gaged and return to Berlin.
German spies are so thick in English ofncial circles
that at one time before America's entry into the war a
business man passing through England en route to Ger
many was detected making secret arrangemnts with the
British admiralty to get information while in Germany.
He thought no one knew but himself and the British of
ficial. In Berlin he was told just what he had made ar
rangements to do and informed that it would be a good
idea to get out. He left.
It is an even bet that quite often Germany will know
what orders are to be issued to American commanders be
fore these same orders can be transmitted down the line to
the regimental commanders.
We are up against an astute military machine, which
has reduced espionage to a fine art.

LEARNING FROM THE CHILD
“Where do the-hot dogs live?” was the expression ol
a 3-year old to her parents the other day when someone
proposed buying some of those standard resort nonde
scripts.
It brought a laugh, of course, but also it carries a les
son. It illustrates the directness of the child mind .
Until children are warped and twisted by what we
call the world there is no indirection about them. They go
straight to the point.
They see things that puzzle the mind and ask direct
questions. They always drive right up to the point.
And many a grown-up who laughs at the child would
be more of a man, or woman, by getting back some of
childhood’s simple straight-forwardness and simplicity
and honesty of expression.—Ex.
