He served with credit during the civil war and returned as Gen. Harrison. In 1880 he whs elected to the Senate in which body ho served six years, gaining a national reputation as a debater. In 1888 ho was elected President of the United States and tho readers of the Wave are pretty familiar with his history si nee that time. As to his merits or demerits ai the chief executive officer of this great nation, wo have nothing to say at this time as we are not in tho political arena.

The training of the head and the guiding of the hand must he supplanted by the training of the heart. Good deeds were the nnfading jewels with which they should adorn tiieir souls. They should fix the standard high, and make truth their motto and the path of duty a path of pleasure. So should they gain the victory over themselves, the grave and death. They should learn to live for others and for the good they could do. To see wliat was right aud not do it wa waul of courage. They should seek fearlessly to convey tlie truth to all, and set their faces as flint against corruption and liypocracy. They should turn away from those sneering hypocrites who would place their foot ou the neck of justice and climb tip by tearing others down.
