In numbers, wealth and domain wide;
The story OF this greatness told

While poor old Spain with grasping hand
Was h0isting flags in every cline,
We staid at -"a-making rails
To Keep abreast the march of Time.
While poor old Srain her millions spent
In great armament and noise,
We were building halls of learning
For onr own dear girls and boys.
And thus our greatness came about,
AS true greatness ever will,

Outside of the United States senate
the sentiment in favor Of eleeting sena-

TO be unanimous. But to do so will
require constitutional amendment,

such an amendment knowing, most of
them, that they could never be elected

Nathaniel Hawthorne was born in
Salem, Massachusetts,, on the 4!h of

and gloomy Puritans, had probably
helped in prosecuting Quakers and fer
reting out witches in this same place one
hundred years before. These old deeds
made IA deep pimpressi0no Hawthorne's
thoughts, as can he seen in his works.
His father, who was very quiet, mel
ancholy man, died when his boy was
only four years old. His mother then
shut herself up and would have moth
ing TO do with the outside world.
When Nathaniel was Y years of age
they moved to his uncles place, near
Lake Sebago, Maine, as lonely a spot
as can be imagined. Here he was alb

amusements were hunting, walking.
