Excerpt from Desert Exile: The Uprooting
of a Japanese-American Family
By Yoshiko Uchida
As soon as we got off the bus, we were directed to an area beneath the grandstand where we registered and filled out a series of forms. Our baggage was inspected for contraband, a cursory medical check made, and our living quarters assigned. We were to be housed in Barrack 16, Apartment 40. Fortunately, some friends who had arrived earlier found us and offered to help us locate our quarters.
It had rained the day before and the hundreds of people who had trampled on the track had turned it into a miserable mass of slippery mud. We made our way on it carefully, helping my mother who was dressed just as she would have been to go to church. She wore a hat, gloves, her good coat, and her Sunday shoes, because she would not have thought of venturing outside our house dressed in any other way.

Explanation:
Paying tribute to someone means to acknowledge the efforts and help given by someone to others. It is a way to show an individual's appreciation of whatever help had been rendered to him/ her. It is one's way of showing respect and admiration of the other person.
In the excerpt given from the memoir of Yoshika Uchida's "<em>Desert Exile: The Uprooting of a Japanese-American Family</em>", the author paid tribute to those people who were openly waiting and freely lending a helping hand to the new arrivals. These people seek out friends and help them get settled, which would no doubt, have been of huge help to them. This detail shows the author's tribute to those helping hands.
This seems to be more of an opinionated question, but I'll help out.
Good advice is advice anybody can apply to their own issues in life. (you should insert your own example of good advice though, not sure about that one)
I saw no man use you at his pleasure. If I had, my weapon should quickly have been out, I warrant you. I dare draw as soon as another man if I see occasion in a good quarrel and the law on my side.
