Next to the Lowest Bidder.

"Said contract to go to the next to
the lowest bidder is the way that
local building contractor would have
the closing sentence read in advertise
ments for bids on any particular job.
While speaking of the matter recently
this same contractor said that ii the
truth We're known nine out of ten of
the lowest lids made are made through
mistake in the calculations of the
bidder.
If the contractor who gets the job
was aware that his bid is oftentilnes
81 900 below that of the one next above
him. and this on a comparatively small
job, he would Immediately institute a
search and find where he had made
the mistake. thus having an opportu-
nifty of failing to qualify to complete
| the job This privilege is often denied
the bidder, however, and he gets well
along with his work before the fact
| dawns upon him that he is on losing
! venture. 1t is then too late to go back
on the Job, and the result is that the
party who is doing the building and
! the contractors also are losers, and this
because of the natural inclination of
the contractor to shirll in order not tC
lose any more than he is absolutely
obliged to in order to get out on the
bad deal.
These mistakes are not only disas
trous to the parties Immediately con
cerned, but to the trade in general. as
by the error of the unlucky bidder an
other worthy contractor is unable tt

A LIFE ON THE OCEAN WAVE.
A life on the ocean wave,

A life on the ocean wave,
home on the rolling deep,
Where the scattered waters wave
And the winds their revel kept
Like an eagle Gagged, pine
On this dull, unchanging shore;
Oh, give me the flashing brine,
The spray and the tempest's rear!
Once more on the deck stand
OF my own swift gliding craft.
Set sail, farewell to the land;
The gale follows fair abaft.
We shoot through the sparkling foam,
Like an ocean bird set free;
Like an ocean bird, our home
Well find far out on the sea.
The land is no longer in view,
The clouds have begun to frown,
But with stout vessel and crew
Well say let the storm come down!
And the song of our hearts shall be,
While the wind and the waters rave,
home on the rolling sea,
A life on the ocean wave
