MISTAKES ALL AROUND.
Much has been said regarding the neglectfulness
OF some IN returning autographs. but TO my mind
the neglect TO send the prize winners, name to
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE by those Offering prizes.
Is Of graver import still. IL is safe TO say some
give no prizes, and even when they do, II the
winners name is not inserted in THE NATIONAL
TRIBUNE, it is natural there should be dissatisae-
ton felt by the compeiitors.-Eva II. Pryor, Provi-
dence, r. i.
THE C. C. @. MUST NEVER DIE.
Twill not be long not many years,
Ere ali who stand in line to-day
VIII have answered to the rol-cail
And have passed from earth away.
And when from earth and duty
Each snd all have passed away,
Where. desr friends. will be the circle
That we love SO wen to-day?
viii our children and their children
Take our places when we go?
When we join the ranks above us,
Will they join the ranks belowI
viii they fill our vacant places,
Finish work that we've begun;
Or will our grand old circle
Forever die when we are gone?
We must teach them friends to love Il
Keep its standard noRting high;
Friends and comrades. brothers sisters,
The c. c. Ga must never die.
In the years that yet are coming
May there still from sea
Stretch this band of noble workers.
