Benefits of Looking Ahead

High school student Nick Baxter is miffed why his classmate Don didn't include him in Don's school newspaper article on the students most likely to succeed. The three Don chose, while all different, have one common trait that makes them successful now and thus make them candidates for future success: they each have a purpose for which they strive, and place the effort into achieving that purpose. Nick, on the other hand, can't even seem to finish the side table he is working on for woodwork, let alone what he will do tomorrow or what his plans for the future in general are. For the first time really thinking about it, Nick can see in his mind what each of the three chosen to succeed will be doing in their adult lives, while his own future right now he can only see ending up badly in he having no purpose. Taking the first step, he decides to make plans for the table, and it eventually turning into what he envisioned in the plan may provide him some impetus to think about his future.

Women of the West

While due credit must be given to those women who have, by their wisdom, counsel and support made our domestic conditions what they are to-day, the wonderful prosperity of the United States as a whole is due to the extraordinary resources of the west, and therefore the places of honor in the niches of history rightfully belong to the women who so nobly assisted in settling and populating the great west. Stop and reflect what fortitude those women showed in venturing into the unknown wilderness, what heroism they displayed, surrounded by hostile Indians, and sacrificing their lives to eventually benefit all mankind. History is replete with the many instances of those acts, but mere words can but poorly represent to the mind the details of the exact incidents. To be able to view the actual occurrence cannot but indelibly impress upon the mind what we really owe these women pioneers. To see the simple life of these people, their sports, pleasures and hardships, and how, when the men folk are attending a country election, the red men take advantage of the situation and pillage and burn their homes. But better still to visually observe how these women, reared to danger, bravely protected their lives and property and also the wild rides of some of the women to warn their neighbors and bring the men to their rescue.
