Grant, April 27, 1822, is being widely celebrated. General Grants career is full of suggestions to ambitious people, particularly to those who have met. discouragements. General Grant was different from most great geniuses in that such people usually show their power early in life. Grant, however, seemed to be a rather ordinary boy and tookonly mediocre rank at West Point. When he went into business he had poor success and was working for a small salary when the war broke out. A carqer like this should make one feel that you cant judge a mans possibilities by his early, failures. Many quiet and obscure peoplq could accomplish great things if they would grasp their situation in life with the implacable determination manifested by this renowned military leader. j. , J ANIMAL WEEK i This week has been designated as Kindness cto Animals It is a favorable time for teachers to discuss with their children the value of kindness to the faithful dumb beasts that toil for the human family, as well as to the pet dogs, cats, rabbits, etc., whose! comfort depends to a great extent upon the fidelity and kindly! feeling of the little folks. The average boy is thoughtless about animals. If left to him-sehe regards it as a good joke to tie a saucepan to a cats tail and harassed creature try to free itself. A little reasoning will . But children have generous natures. show them how the abused cat feels, and thereafter to become ar-- ! dent defenders of the unhappy-- creatures. Meanwhile there are grown-up- s whose thick skins often need more than reasoning to help them to see things from the point of view of the dunjb animal. There is no better time than the present to emphasize the virtue of being kind to all living creatures.
