Julius II. Ward in The White Noun
tains, says of the Crawford Notch trip,
The thoroughfare every moment grows
more rugged and mountain Swallowed.
Then opens to the eye one of the
fairest pictures of romantic wilderness to
he found In the White Mountains. You
are In narrow gorge where nature in
some primeval convulsion has torn the
hills apart and then clothes them
again with verdure. You look up through
an immense rsvine and Mount Washing
ton rises mp before you like the dome of
st. Peters among the lesser towers of
Rome. The train sreeps along the noun
tain side and gives the best possible view
Of the mountain fastness which
ever way the eye turns, revealing the
wildness and the beauty of the so emery.
All this may be seen In the
Maine Central excursion to Fabyans next

Young soldier sleep how long thy hear
For SCENES of martial glory yearned,-
How pure and high the sacred fame
OF patriot zeal within thee burned
But few and brief the days have been,
Since last thy farewell words were said:
Scarce had their.eeho ceased-when loi
Thou lest with the countless dead.
At Victory's dawn the summons came
Rise patriot boy, there is no need
OF thy young life In camp and field
For the dear flag thou may'st not bleed
But God has need OF valiant sons
His glorious Kingdom to increase:-
Come, join the Heavenly Hosts, and be
A soldier of the Prince of Peace
Now while the bells, with joyful peal,
OF triumph ring to all the land;
With heavy hearts and fearful eyes
Around thy early grave We stand
But, wsll we trust that far above,
Our victory or our grief, thouIart;
Beneath the banner of the GROSS,
In nohler deeds to bear thy part.
