the Census Bureau, asking when he would
be ready to submit schedule n, which had

TOO MUCH RURAL THIEVING.

Hungry, But Dishonest People Rumma EiuE
Robinson Township.
Notwithstanding the glut of food products
in the country, it seems there are some
hungry people in the rural regions. Per-
haps, as some political economists hold. it is
owing to faulty distribution. Thieves
have been ransacking cellars in Robinson
township. They got away with lot of eat
ables in Jonathan Phillips cellar on Thurs
day night.
As it is almost impossible to hire a man
to do any work in that section at present, it
would seem tnat no excuse can be allowed
for stealing.

Who can estimate its worth?
Life and beauty ever giving
To the desert lands of earth:
True impressions of our Savior
Making on the minds of men:
Through such noble, pure behavior
Thousands shall be born again.
Sanity lives, like fragrant flowers,
Shed sweet odors all around,
Fill with joy life's fleeting hours,
Make the world with love resound.
Righteousness and goodness flourish
Where the lives of men are pure:
Holy deeds shall never perish,
But through endless years endure.
Sterling coin the world is needing,
Sh4ms are blighting age and youth;
Wicked scoffers are misleading
Numbers from the fount of truth,
God OF Heaven. let Thy blessing
Rest on all who bear Thy name,
That, while Thee their Lord protesting,
They may mirror forth the same.
