CREED OF YOUNG VIRGINIA FARMERS. 
In every schoolhouse in Prince 
Edward County, Va., a placard con- 
taining a creed for the American 
country boy and dedicated to the 
Boys’ Corn club of Virginia has been 
posted. It reads: 
“T believe that the country which 
God made is more beautiful that the 
city which man made; that life out 
of doors and in touch with the earth 
is the natural life of man. I be- 
lieve that work with nature is more 
inspiring than work with the most 
intricate machinery. 
the dignity of labor depends not on 
what you do, but how you do it; that 
opportunity comes to a boy on the 
farm as often as to a boy in the 
city; that life is larger and freer 
and happier on the farm than in the 
town; that my success depends not 
upon my location, but upon myself; 
not upon my dreams, but upon what 
I actually do; not upon luck, but 
upon pluck. I believe in working 
working when you work and playing 
when you play, and in giving and 
demanding a square deal in every 
act of life.” 
True or false, that which is said 
of men often occupies as important 
a place in their lives, and above all 
in their destinies, as that which they 
do.—Victor Huco. 
He who has not been a stubborn 
accuser in prosperity should hold his 
peace in the face of ruin.—VIcTOoR 
Huco.
