Mr.. Shepherds Grafton was the fin

worthy of the occasion and the day
and the best men of the nation could
do no more.
At the conclusion of the oration
Judge Clifford announced a solo by
Colonel Knudson, who was followed
by Asa Forrest Jr., who read Lincoln's
address at Gettysburg. The choir sang
another number and then the audience
arose and united in singing Amer lea,

Lutheran Synod Closed.

The Minneapolis Journal in speaking
of the final session of the synod on May
20, at Minneapolis, has this to say of
the event.
"President Wilhelm 'Koern conducted
the closing exercises of the 1902 session
of the Northwestern Lutheran synod.
The close was affecting, owing to the
farewells of Professor J. B. Erich, who
has retired from the presidency of Luth.
or Theological seminary, and Professor
Laur, Larson, who retires from the
presidency of Luther college at Deco
rah, Iowa. ..
A proposition to elect one treasurer
instead of having eleven persons receive
funds, was postponed until another
meeting. President Mikkelson was au'
thorized to raise funds for a new build
ing for the Sioux Falls normal school,
but the synod decided not to act off,
cially in the matter this year
The proposition to dissolve the cor.
porations Of the Luther college and
publishing house, and transfer the
property to the synod was postponed for
further preparation and thought. The
teachers course at the normal school
was extended from four to five years,
and $500 was set aside as a salary for
another instructor there.

easily heard al over the auditorium.
Her manner was easy and confident
and graceful. The choir gave another
selection after which Judge Clifford
announced the orator Of the day, Rev.
Arthur G. Shepherd.
A Canton audience always looks for
something brilliant when Mr.. shep.

were not disappointed.
He began his address IN clear,

around the entire circle, paying q

through revolutionary struggle that

The Psalm ofthe old Soldier.

The blue ID fading into gray.
Just a. when sunset comes
With bugle calls that die away
Aud softly throbbing drums:
The shadows reach across the Sky
And hush the cares Of day;
The bugle cali and drum beat die
The blue fades into gray.
The gray il blending into blue
A sunrise glad and fair,
When, in the richness Of the dew,
The rosea riot there.
Tho bitterness Of yesterdny
10 lost to me and you;
The blue ID fading into gray
The gray blends into blue
They're sleeping now the long, long sleep
The boys who wore the blue;
Above the gray the grasses creep
And both were good and true;
And In the twilight Of our life
The ending Of the way
There comes forgetfulness Of strife
The blue fades into gray.
Above each mound the lily grows.
And humble daisies nod:
The ruby glory Of the rose
Sheds luster on the sod;
The tears-the tears-they are the dew
That greets the coming day,
The gray ID blending into blue
The blue fades into gray.

folded, turned about three times and
led to the table. A hand is then put
out and prophecy fOretOld by the

a happy, peaceful life; the wine, a
rich, eyentful, noble career; the
vinegar, misery and poverty; the
empty bowl is a smybol of a bachelor

course, rearranged after each test.
Sometimes three bowls are filled,
one with sand, another with flour, the
third being empty. The bowls are set
in a row, and the test conducted as
before If flour be touched, you will
be the first and only sweetheart of
your future wife or husband; if the
sand, a widow or widower will be
your life partner; the empty dish pre-
diets single blessedness.
There is another charm conducted
with three saucers. One is half filled
with salt, which, being white, stands
for silver: another with Cornmeal,
signifying gold, while the third re-

hand into the cornmeal, you will be

There are a munger Of ring charms.
A ring, a thimble and a nickel should

which is said as the ring touches the
glass being the initial of the future

These are all old, old tricks. Very
modern, however, is the test of the
college colors. Ribbons symbolizing
the various universities and colleges
are hung up, the girls are blindfolded,
and each picks out streamer, and so
learns which temple of learning her
husband will hail as his alma mater.

OF the nights in the year, there is
none which popular imagination has
surrounded with more peculiar
character than the evening of the 31st
of October known as All Hallow's
Eve, or Halloween. On this night
fluences are supposed to prevail. If
you will look closely enough into
folk lore and fairy lore, you will
discover that the princess and prin-
Cesses who had been changed into
beasts or birds were allowed, for one
brief period on Halloween, to assume
their normal form, during which. If
the fates were propitious, something
happened to break the spell. 1t is
the night set apart for a universal
walking abroad of spirits, and
divination is supposed to attain its
highest power. The fairies, it Is said,
hold a grand carnival, and everybody
knows that the fairies are always in
sympathy with those who are in love.
Nut and Apple Tests.
Nuts and apples have always
figured prominently in Halloween
spells and charms. One Of the oldest
OF all is to place three nuts on glow
Goals, after being secretly named, the
one remaining alive longest giving
proof positive of the faithfulness Of
the person whose name 1t bears. Or
two nuts may be placed about three
inches apart, One is supposed to
represent the girl who puts 1t there,
and the other her, as yet, undeclared
but mentally-chosen lover. Should
the nuts burn brightly, a happy mar
riage will result. Should the nut
named after the man jump toward the
nut named after the girl, she may

THE WET-MY-LIP.

When on the bank the shearers' coats
Lie black, and gray, and brown;
When on the riggs of ripened oats
The morning sun shines down.
Unseen by cen the brightest lads,
The latest bird that flies
Runs up and down the little pads,
And loud and quick she cries
"Wetmy-lip! Wet,my-lip! Wet-my-
lip"
THE devil blister it for you!"
Says Jenny, speaking plain,
"You know the shearin's still to do,
An yet you're wantin' rainl"
Then by the ripe oaks overhung,
While goldea mists arise,
She, as if hooking Jemmy's tongue,
Louder and louder cries
"Wet-my-lip! Wet.my-lip! Wet-my-
lip"
The stubbles matching and the mold
Head, back. and wings and tail
All golden and brown and gold.
How beautiful tho quail!
And when the shearers meet at morn,
And each his own hook tries,
Sudden from out the ripened corn
A voice. half human, cries
"Wet,my-lip! Wet-my-lip! Wet my
lip!"
