THE DRUM.

THE DRUM.
Oh, the drum
There IL some
information In thy grum
Monotony of utterance that strikes the spirit
dumb.
A we hear
Through the clear
And uncouded atmosphere
Thy palpitatiDg syllables roll in upon the ear
There's part
or the art
OF thy music throbbing heart
That thrills something In US that awakens
with q start.
And In rhyme
With the chime
And exactitude Of time
Goes marching on to glory to thy melody sub
lime.
And the guest
OF the breast
That thy rolling robs of rest
Is patriotic spirit as Continental dressed.
And he looms
From the glooms
or q century of tombs,
And the blood he spilled at Lexington in living
beauty blooms.
And his eyes
Wear the guise
OF q purpose pure and wise,
As the love of them is lifted to something In
the skies
That Is bright
Red and white
With blurr of starry light,
AS 1t laughs in silken ripples to the breezes day
and night.
There are deep
Hushes creep
Ger the pulses as they leap,
As thy tumult, fainter growing, on the silence
falls asleep,
While the prayer
Rises there
With the sea and earth and air
As q heritage to freedoms sons and daughters
everywhere.

IRREGULAR ATTENDANCE.

Principal Corbett's school is by no means the only one in town where irreg- ular attendance is one of the main ob- stacles in tho way of thorough progress and success. Many of our schools are greatly injured and the teachers subject of unjust criticism by this prevailing habit. Every absence flinders the pu- pills progress as well as of those who are faithful in attendance, because the natural advance of the entire school is hindered by the occasional appearance of those who stay away part of the time, forgetting at home, oftentimes what they have learned when at school, and in trying to keep pace with their class, cause disorder, perplexity, annoyance and extra work for the teacher. The chief cause of this evil appears to be due to the indifference and lack of interest of the parents, who, apparently, do not realize that the loss of one or more school days in each week will put the pupil backward in his studies, lower his position in his class, and destroy his in- terest ill his endeavors to obtain an edu- cation. Children when asked why they were not at school often reply, "0h mother said l could stay home if want ed to-" or 'Father was going to do so and so and I wanted to stay home and see him." And the over-indulgent par ent grants the whim of the child. not only to the detriment of the child, but to the entire school. And this is more par ticularly true in districts where the num- Der of scholars is small. Such schools must be unsatisfactory, even with good teachers, and expensive in proportion to the number of scholars in attendance, Doubtless cases exist in which irregular attendance is unavoidable, but for par ents to keep their children at home un- necessarily, or for any trivial excuse, is wrong. Parents can help greatly to raise the standard in our schools by rem- edying this evil of absenteeism.-["

RESIDENCE OF FREDERICK W. READ To Built J,A

mourns the destruction of one of the handsomest silk hats in Fairfield county. The senator destroyed his hat while em- erging from hole into which he had crawled in pursuance of his duties. Fri day the commissioners were informed that the Washington bridge was in such shape that it would need immediate re- pairs to make it trustworthy. The entire board went to the bridge Monday. In order to examine the timbers underneath they had hole cut through the side, by which they made an exit to the piers. Commissioner Houlihan's hat was caught by a projecting girder and a large section of 1t torn away. This unfortunate ac- cident did not prevent the continuance of the work, however, and as a result of the inspection a gang of men were at work putting in new timbers wherever necessary. Some of the old timbers were so rotten that they crumbled under feet. Commissioner HouIihan went home in a new hat, purchased in this city. He will save the remains of the old one because it was presented to him by admiring constituents and he thinks good deal of it. Union.

It is not necessary to depend on luck" to strike good pair of shoes at some stores. Its all a matter of ''chance'' whether you get good pair in all the word implies or not. Every shoe in stock comes up to good standard and no matter the price asked you get full value. A shoe that has 'lots of wear in it" needn't necessarily be shoe without style. Style is very prominent feature of the shoes in this store, and our con- stantly increasing trade from surround ing towns warrants the statement that not alone are large assortments and new styles found here but a clear saving.- Baldwin 6 Standish, 402 Main street, Bridgeport.
