The last gun was fired,
The last roll called
Half-starged and halt-naked,
Grim, gaunt, unappalled,
Bowed down, but not daunted,
The old army stood,
al have done, my brave soldiers,
All things for your good"
Thus spake their great leader,
Deep grief on his face,
While halo of glory
Iliumined the place;
Some trailcd their muskcts,
Some shcathed their swords;
They had smiled at Grants cannons,
They wept at Lees words.
And Grant was as courteous
As the brave knights of old,
No glad shouts were uttered,
No loud drums were rolled.
But the yictors salnted
Those gaunt men in grey,
And the fire-winged tempest
Died slowly away.

artist on another page comes to pass some
day; but then Uncle Jerry has never set up
as weather sharp, and people will excuse
him IL he shows he is anxious to learn. But
there arc other dangers that will beset his
career after he has mastered the mysteries of
meteorology and can make sunshine or rain
at will. First in the affections of the Secre-
tary are the horny-handed tillers of the soil.
To them he and his Department are primarily
devoted. Naturally he will be compelled to
run the weather altogether for their benefit.
He will turn on the rain and keep it pouring
to hurry up the farmers crops in the growing
season, when city people are languishing for
spring sunshine. Later, during haying and
harvest, he will be inclined for the accommo-
dation of the farmers to bunch all his rain into
Sundays, so that his beloved agriculturalists
can gather in the timothy and the grain W ith-
out interruption during the week. But on
Sunday city people always want fine weather
for driving and picnics and excursions, and If
Uncle Jerry gives the country many rainy
Sundays he will be committing fatal political
mistake. For where crops are plentiful votes
are scarce, and votes do count, and statesmen
must look out for them as well as for the
crops. So Uncle Jerry had better be on his
guard and understand at once that the
Weather Bureau must not be run in the inter
est of any class of citizens, but for the great
est good of the greatest number.
