The Bolo club of Seattle, no doubt, has a useful place in the community. If we understand it aright, it is a political organization of veterans who seek to promote the interests of their comrades where everything else is equal. Of course, where a veteran is plainly unfit for an office, the Bolo club is not expected to indorse him against an outsider. Where ity for the office he seeks, the Bolo club usually does prefer him. It is, therefore, apparent that to command the respect of the veterans—the great rank and file of veterans who do | free of any political entanglements.

(He was iike those grown folks who, lacking faith in themselves, fear to stand on their own feet, lest they fall) Finally the doctors told the boy they would give him a plot in the ho» pitai garden in which he could grow things good to eat But every day he would have to walk to the garden without his crutches. “I want to grow a muskmelon,” said the boy. And a wonderful thing happened the day they gave him the seed. He walked part of the way to the garden without his crutches! (is it not thus with all of us? The more definite our object in life, the more confident our footsteps The aimless wanderer never arrives.) And each day he walked farther towards his garden plot without hts) crutches until at last he discarded them altogether. The’ muskmelon he raised was a poor, little, stunted thing, scarcely fit to be eaten, but at the county fair the judges awarded it first prize because it was the perfect fruit of faith. “Two-thirds of failure comes from the fear of faijure.” some one has said, The greatest of undeveloped resources is the human mind and one does not find there what God has given until, like the little boy, he sloughs | Off fear and substitutes “I Will” for “I Can't.” The world need not go hungry this winter The world has plenty of wheat to feed itself.
