' ' - Of course if yon are at the top of the list today it dcfea not signify that you will not be at the bottom tomorrow.- It takes a sustained 'effort to maintain t, pi sea at the top, and you may be weak-kneed, lacking in back bone, etc, and by letting np in your efforts fail to hang on to the enviable position to which you hare climbed. Never get the impression that your chances are not as good as any others. They are, if you will apply yourself to too task that is cut out lor you. It is a grand offer, this double vote proposal, and we hope you are already doing some hard work. There are some people concerned in this race who have not even exhausted their list of kinsfolk in their search for sub scriptiona and the - aceompanyin; votes, to say nothing about getting out among their friends and acquaint rices. But then again there are some who have, soU behooves yon to hurry Mothers and Friends of Babies Living Outside of Concord You have the grandest opportunity ever afforded ft baby to win, as two big prizes go outside the cityr : The babies out of town have exactly the same chance as the babiea in Concord, - .j , ' iThe Tirnea and Tribune are cleaiL papers, and when it is so easy to se cure subscriptions under ordinary cir cumstances, it certainly should be no trouble at all with tma contest a an incentive.

It ia astonishing how this tri- angle: run. through everything, body, :r.j 1 .1. .A .j ,11 f rhrr1- nualifits anil clonfies educaUon. Modern education demands a sound mind in a sound body and a child's body must be properly trained by capable teachers until it becomes a healthy, strong"and vigorous body. It is not enough to teach arithmetic and BTammar and not teach a child" how to enjoy sun shine, how to breathe and to educate the bodv. VThis is one side of the triangle. We turn to the otber side and nna me mind. Man comes into this world with every faculty needing education. You are made to study things that ao- parently you never need in after life but education does not consist in fill ing our mind with information but in training your mind so tnat you-may have complete control over any situ ation. The other side of the triangle is, the siiiritual side. You cannot ed- IB I He 3IHUUIIL impi a v ucate the human mind and not edu- eate the human soul any more than von can educate the mind and not ed- J ... . . , urate the body. Body, mind and soul go together. You cannot educate one and not the other, tney go nana in hand, aide by side. Any education that leaves out body, miifl and soul is false, and whenever you leave out one it is one-sided. Whatever you have gained in knowledge or hew learned you may be in ' astronomy and how much you know about the stars if you do not know about the Star of Bethlehem your knowledge is incomplete. You may dig down into the bowels of the earth in your study of tocks but your knowledge of bot any is incomplete if you do not know of the Rock of Ages. You may know of the water of the sea but your knowledge is incomplete if you do not know of the Water of , Life That is why we have educational ol leses. - - True education is in a great trian gle. It means an educated body, an educated mind and an educated wwul . . . , . ll - i I J A I mat teacne. oi ns. Education means ft body prepared, a mind prepared and a soul prepared. There is only one time set apart for education and that is youth. (Jod nas set aside this whole block of the tri angle of life for. education. God in his goodness has said to us 1 give you all these years to educate the body, mind and soul-r-the whole man.
