A Ward to the Boys of Texas and
Parents.
Our boys are full of life. To
them it seems theirs by right.
What it costs and from whence
it came, they never stop to con-
sider. They know life in man
must be respected. The law of
God and of man requires it
They must not kill one of their
own kind. They have been
taught thafc man is the greatest
thing, and only on earth to be
respected and feared. Man can
talk and man punishes, and will
be revenged. But when itcomes
to killing a useful, beautiful
robin, torturing a dog, or beating
a poor lame horse, that's another
thing. They are dumb brutes
and this is no one's business but
the owners. As for the birds, no
oncowns them, and for each boy
to kill a few is nothing.
The trouble with the boy is,
that he has never been taught to
think of our world life as worthy
of respect. He has always
thought that this concrete thing,
or life in man, was different from
the life in a bird.
We say that man is superior by
virtue of superior reason, but we
are not even sure of that. The
life essence in both is the same.
It comes with a spark and with a
flash like that from a broken cur-
rent, it is gone. This pulse
which thrills all nature and beats
in man as well as in animals,
emanates from the same source
God.
All created things have a right
to live if the economy of nature
has so willed it. Boys frequent-
ly go through stages of develop-
ment alike to primaeval man
thousands of years ago. Prim-
aeval man thought no more of
killing his fellows than do the
boys of killing our useful robins,
blue jays etc. These birds left
the cold north in order to spend
the winter with us. In the north
no one thinks of killing them.
Here in Texas the law also pro-
tects them, but no one has called
the boys attention to that. We
have no game wardens in Texas,
as the office pays nothing.
The desire to kill does not be-
long to the twentieth century ad-
vanced man. Occasionally we
find astrays in the twentieth
century, atavisms like Thaw, a
primeaval beast with all the lusts
and ferocious blood laws inherit-
ed from jungle man. These
primaeval types shock us on ac-
count of their utter disregard of
life; but what about boys who
kill and torture all other forms
life except man. Did you ever
stop to think that life had a com-
moi origin,'and that man passed
through many mutations of exis
tence, an animal among animals,
until the Directing Hand said, "It
is good,'' and breathed unto him
his understanding. Do y•^ re-
member what Mogli says to thn
beasts of the jungle, in Kjpling'I
Jungle Books, "We be of onf.
blood, thou and I." This mys-
terious and indefinable spirit of
God, which we call life, has made
man and the other creations of
earth, all of one family, and .man
being of superior intelligence,
and the stronger, is bound, to
protect these other forms of jlife.
Our mother earth gave us all
being the trees, the flowers, the
sir da. the things that crawl, the
things that run and man. We
are apt to think that man is the
only creature whose life is sacred.
The pulse of each created thing,
beats with the joy of life and the
Right to Live.
The birds sing it, the flowers
and trees proclaim it, man's
friend, the dog, barks it and the
wild fowl call it irom the sky.
The joy of life is in the ocean, it
runs over the prairies and
through the forrests. Man is
but one manifestation of life.
Our boys must learn that to
strike and kill, to mutilate and
torment any one of the "Least of
little thing" is grieving the Spirit
of Life and is a blow to nfcn
What do the forrests show?
Lust and waste have character-
ized man's attitude to the forrest
the world over. Think of the
birds and animals, the fish, seals
etc, that have become extinct
through man's killing, not for
food, but through lust of blood
and savage ornamentation.
The National and State govern
ments have wisely stepped in and
have made laws for forrest, fish
and game preservation. But the
court of last resort is the people
and the boys are the futux-e law-
makers and observers, and it is
to them that this appeal is made.
Go out to the woods on some
sunny day, boys, with a gun and
with the big stop of your heart's
camera ready for snapshots. Lie
down on your back, your head
pillowed on sweet forrest leaves
and pine needles. See the squir-
rels, come out, full of the joy of
life. The wood-pecker is busy
ridding the trees of injurious in-
sects. The wren, the robin,
and hundred of other birds,
whose names you do not know,
all are busy, cleaning dusting,
mending and earessing, the threes
leaves and flowers given in their
care, and as they work they sing
and their little lives are rounded
with as great a love of life as
oulrs. And now the insects ap-
ear, each- busy and happy in bis
share of the work, in the great
economy of life. Everything
toils for the betterment of earth
and earth's happiness, the boy
now begins to understand with
great wondering eyes and open
ears. The trees exhale to him
nou rishing oxygin and he breathes
new life, new energy and a new
resolve to respect that life in all
things. He hears the ripples of
running water from the spring
near by, rioting in the joy of life.
The tree tops put their heads to-
gether and decide that all is well,
the sunshine good and that life
is worth the living and lazy tarry-
ing winds whisper this secret to
the boy below. The great mother
heart of nature throbs beneath
him and when he arizes his for-
rest eye is clearer, his scent to
earth is keener, his ear is attuned
to sounds ne never heaard" before." *
arid he is.horn into anew life the ^5-
Joy of which hd will never io£e.
. It is impossible for such a boy
to wilfully woutvd . the pretty
robins, blue"jays and other birds,
whose mutilated bodies'' we are
continually finding rfnujer our
trees. Those tbat( kill and wound
these birds do. not want food, but
it is the sam&Qld-savage instinct
for blood and the blotting out of
life. -Don't do it boys,rfemember
Thaw and the blobd-lust and
cruelty of the savage, his desire
to mutilate and kill is a dangerous
one and will grow upon a boy. It
will sho-w Itself all through his
life, not only in cruelty to birds
and animals, but his attitude to
woman and his fellowman. He
^ho loves life in all its various
and variable forms,-will be a pro-
tector of woman and dp her no
wcong, will support the weak,
lift the fallen and ever be a cham-
pion of the .right in all things.

£etuns After Tea Years.
Tom Carlock is a patriotic, am-
bitious and incidentally a rather
handsome young fellow, who left
here at 'the beginning of the
Spanish-American war, to help
Uncle Sam-punish those Span-
iards who blew up the Maine.
He did service in tne Philipines,
principally during the active hos-
tilities, and when the troubles
were all settled, he was attached
to the United States secret ser-
vice for several years. Tom was
a pleasant caller at the Democrat
office Monday and gave a satis-
factory account of himself, and
assured us that he had been a
pretty good boy while away from
home, in fact he couldn't be total-
ally bad and be thp son, that he
is, of so good a man as J. J. Car-
lock, who lives three miles below-
town. Tom has practically trav-
eled the universe, and has knowl-
edge and experiences that are in
valuable to him throughout lift*.
With this asset of knowledge; and
experience coupled with his in-
domitable energy there is quite
a future for him, and the Demo-
crat joins his many friends in
wishing him well.
Tom says he has seen it 8,11, and
old Bell county looks good to him.

Pof. W. M. Williams of Taylor,
