In Limine.

Standing on the threshold of the pear
ly gates ajar and wondering IN an inno-
cent manner what sort of a bush warm
biscuits grow on and longing to know
who manufactures the paste for pastry,
at this time of the year host of sweet
girl graduates with spotless manuscript
neatly tied with varicolored ribbons, pro-
claim to the world through the thousand
little red school houses the fact that they
have finished their course.
We speak of the sweet girl graduates
because IN these days they are in the
majority, and then, who cares to hear
about the awkward blushing youth whose
hands have never a proper place and
whose ever visible knees tremble and
shake with fright as he tells of the un-
known worlds to conquer and then gees
out and picks bugs from his fathers po-
tato patch.
But the girls! All hail to them! May
they continue perennially to cast their
fragrance on the desert of humanity that
has gone before. Give her Delsarte and
physical culture and give her your atten-
ton as she punctures the sky with her
visionary ideals and caps the mountains
with the laurel wreaths of her fame; and
when she lifts the world, for moment,
from the mud siles of business, from
short-cake and long divisions, to those
ethereal joys that knock the top off of
time and scatter the star dust of eternity
in your eyes, let us forget for a time that
we are human and with the wings of a,
dove soar into that ultama thule of the
graduate beyond which even angels enter
with fear.
And if, where the tall trees of glory
wave in the perfect breezes of her fame,
we see that the love- birds have nested,
and that some young love still fingers to
disprove the theory of her ideals, let US
hope that she will not decline in Greek,
Latin, French, German 81 plain English,
for over her head, the missile toe hangs
and her dresser is full of stockings with
out toes which all her ideals have failed
to darn. So we greet her and leave her
still upon the threshold of life wondering
if bread is raised on the bottle or cult
waited liky corn.

WILDMAN RELIED.
The Effect and Act When His Fellow
Workers Presented Him Parting
Gift of Fishing Tackle.

Mr.. w. Is. Wildman, who today sewers
MS connection with the T.-R. to remove
soon to his farm near Albion, was made
the recipient of a handsome gift from
the entire force of the L. r., editorial,
business and mechanical departments
The gift selected consisted OF fine
Bristol steel fishing rod, Nom Hofe
reel suitably inscribed and filled with
Il silk casting line. Mr.. Wildman was
greatly surprised and affected, but eX-
pressed his appreciation of the remem-
brance in a few appropriate words.
mfr. Wildman will quit his work on
the T.-R. with the lasting friendship
of every man on it's force. When, as a
boy he worked at the case setting type
for this newspaper the men who
touched elbows with him respected him
and loved him, when he became fore
man of the composing room the reia-
tons of co-workerS We're not changed
and thru all his career as city editor
and, at times, managing editor of this
newspaper, he has always commanded
the respect and friendship of all who
knew him. In his leaving his fellow
rroprietors of the T.-R. feel that they
are losing one of the most valuable
men who have contributed to Its sue
cess. Wildman is not man of scintil-
lating brilliancy, but he IS possessed of
an almost unerring judgment and rare
executive ability which, applied with a
faithful and Industrious devotion to his
work, has made him the strongest city
editor at present at work in Iowa jour
nalism. He has been most excellent
right hand assistant to every editor
who has carried the load of editorial
management of the T.-R. 1t is the hope
and heartfelt wish of every man on the
T.-R. force as we'll as hundreds OF citi-
zens who have known and respected
him that Mr. Wildman will find the re-
operative powers of farming so great
as to make for him an early return
to journalism possible.
