All business is a struggle to the man who has to hustle for a living, and upon the earnestness he shows on his work his success depends. Hut there are means to make any business less wearisome, to relieve the drudgery that accompanies it. Farming is no exception. It can be made interest ing or it can become year after year the same round of hard work and mental stagnation. Which it is go ing t<> be does not depend on the farm, the crops, the stock or any other material thing, but 011 the mind of the man. To the alert, stu dious man farming is a problem of never failing interest. It is always presenting new subjects; it is never wholly mastered, but always has the facination of the unknown. It demands more than the stupid rou tine of piece-work in the factory, and it is well that it is so. Every man who studies to infuse interest into his occupation is raising his work to a higher level and making it easier for himself and others. The Civil Service Commission ha* received a call from the l'hillippine Government for 150 male teachers, with salaries as follows: 25 at $1,200; 7(> at SI,OOO 55 at S9OO per annum. It is desired to secure these teachers without unnecessary delay, and an examination will be held 011 October 1!), and 20, in various cities. Peace has been established in the Phillip pines and the conditions of living are (steadily improving, therefore this call for teachers affords an ex cellent opportunity to young men who wish to follow the profession of teaching, and which offers tine op portunities for promotion. Teachers appointed will be promoted to high er grades in the service according to their ability. The salaries range from #!)00 to $2,000 for teachers and from $1,")00 to $2,500 for division superintendents. The Commission wants only faithful, conscientious and energetic workers. Voters should remember that they will have a new lesson to learn be fore they can vote intelligently this fall, the new ballots being entirely different from the old one. The old ballot had a separate column for each party which had made nominations. But one the new ballots the names of all the candidates for one office will be printed under the name of that office. For instance under the heading "State.Treasurer," all can didates for that office will be print ed. The name of the candidate will be first at the left, and at the right of bis name will be the name of the party which nominated him. At the right of this party name will be a small square. If two or more par ties have nominated the same man for the same office the name of each party which nominated him will be printed at the right of his name. At the top of each ballot there will be printed in large letters the names of the different parties which have made nominations, and a party name. If you want to vote a straight ticket you will put a cross in the big square at the right of your party name and that will be counted for the whole ticket. But if you want to cut your ticket you put a cross in the small square at the right of the name of the man for whom you want to vote. Don't put a cross in the big square at the top and also in the little square at the right of each can didate; if you do this neither one will count. Remember the big square is for a straight ticket, the ' little squaj'w is for a cut ticket. MANAGER WANTED.
