Greatest Spiritual Asset
The greatest single spiritual asset
in American life today is its hopeful-
ness, writes Willard L. Sperry in Ha-
Tale Review This hopefulness is tin
hopefulness of a still youthful nation,
of a youth that has never been deeply
hurt or cruelly disillusioned. It may
have been a pity that the iron of war
did not get home to our vitals ten
years ago. As a people we were lef'
at the armistice still in the crusading
mood of our first enthusiasm. Tor
the European all that has faded away
into the light of common day. Our
romanticism wishes no dealings wit!
their realism Now. hope must tic an
ingredient temper of every western
religion. A faith and a love wiihotr
hope would he for our civilization no
religion. The spiritual gravity «>f the
situation In the Old World lies pro
eisely in the fuci that there are whole
societies of men there without hope
and so without God in their world
The innate hopefulness of our Anierl
can life was left unimpaired by the
war. Candor may compel us to admit
that this hope is. perhaps, only the
unspent residuum of the romantic de
lusinns of die late Nineteenth century
optimism. The saving fact still re
mains that it i« hope. This inviolate
hopefulness of Americuii life Is the
one great undrained spiritual reser
voir of western civilization.
At the old-fashioned woodpile, nr
cording to the Ipalem News, the conn
try hoy acquired physical development
the exercise strengthened his wind
and made his tnusries Ilrin and power
ful, and it taught him persistence
The hoy who learned to finish his
woodpile was never a quitter when lie
up and he paid his debts and
was <i good citizen. Something needs
to take the place of that Job in tin
woodpileless home. The hoys need
sonic tasks by which they will learn
industry and perseverance. There
oirght to he something they could d‘>
for the benefit of the family even If
they occupy a city tint. It is a help
to them where they take some regular
job in their spare hours. If any boys
have twifhiiig to do after school but to
stand around on the sidewalk and go
i<i entertainments and bog rides in
motor cars, something is going to lx

supplied in the old days of tlx* wood

Hills of Califomia
Rich in Tourmalinat
One California mine exhibits tour-
maline crystals a foot loug and aev- j
era I inches wide, of a deep, luscious
pink—termed ruhelite— with an outer |
coating of a darker color. Some of;
the piuk tourmalines have a capping
of blue. In the I’ala district red tour-
malines are the rule; in others rich
blues and greens: whilst still others
have all these ami many other exqui-
site colors. On the SHn Jacinto moun-
tains were discovered green tourma-
lines with red renters, such as Brazil
was noted for Sometimes they are
green ut one end and red at ttie other
end of the same crystal. Harvard uni
versify has one that is eight Inches ,
long und tun inches in diameter.
Absolutely unique are some that are
the exact reverse of t tie famous
double-color Brazilian type -being
green internally and red externally
Mesa Grande Is notable for these very
r.are gems and for the large size of its
tourmalines. A fine set of these was
presented to Hie Musee d'llistolre
Naturells in Paris, and th>.-p are won
dcrfnl, with their beautiful colors and
shades of red, rose, pink, pale green
yellowish green and dark green, and
of a size from which are cut gems
of from twenty to thirty carats. The
two-color tourmalines also make nice
ent's eyes when cut across, and are
fashionable in some quarters.

Perfect Exponent of
Bird Love Is Linnet
There are not two more devoted ill
tie lovers to tie found than a pair of
linnets. “I have often looked upon
acts of devotion in the birds’ world,
but If you want to see bird love ut ii-
best you must watch Hie home life
of ihe linnet," says Oliver G. l’ike.
the well-known ornithologist. Almost
every action that they perform at the
nest speaks of happiness, and you
could not find any birds more attached
to their young. If enemies approneh lilti<»i» today.
If He Had a Million
Joe Brown was the colored porter
at a little hank In southern Kansas
One spring day lie rested on Ids broom
and looked outdoors where nature
beckoned him down to the river where
he might doze and wait for a cattish
nibble on hi- line.
"Git lin-s," he declared fervently
“I -uitliily do wi-lit Ah had a million
dollahs'"
"A million dollars. Joe?" the cashlei j

with a million dollars 1”
"Ah'd buy me some pigs uiul make
