JUST BE GLAD
This is no Preaching, no Sermoniz.
ing; it is Simply Truth Taken
From Poetry and Told In

From Poetry and Told In
Prose For ARGUS
Readers.
The best lover of all the lovers in
this life is he who loves most Of us,
my beloved.
1t was spoken long ago, and we
repeat here, that He prayeth best
who loveth best all things, both
great and small; for the dear God
who made him, both made and low
eth ALL"
And so, to paraphrase the sweetest
song that was ever sung, let us love
one another, men and women, and
little children, and through all the
coming years 'just be glad!''-
80 heart of mine, we shouldn't
Worry so!
What we have missed OF calm
We couldn't have you know!
What we've met of stormy pain
And of sorrows driving rain,
We can better meet again,
If it blow.
We have erred in that dark hour,
We have known
When our tears fell with the showers,
All alone
Were not shine and sorrow blent
AS our Gracious Master meant?
Let us temper our content
With His own.
For we know, not every morrow
Can be sad;
So, forgetting all the sorrow
We have had,
Let US fold away our fears,
And put BY our foolish tears,
And through all the coming years
just be glad"
Just be glad, my beloved!f -
There is no mere jingling of words,
no idle phrase-mongering in that
splendid speech of the sweetest OF all
our singers. 1t is profound philoso-
ply. 1t is the -creed-the law of
God-Be Glad! -
To every brave man and true wo-
man upon this round old globe, roll
ing in the unmeasured spaces of i'm
measurable eternity, there cometh
fears and tears, badges of true nobil-
ity of soul, and it is for all such men
and women to fold away their fears
and brush by their tears, and look
ahead-look to Truth, Kiss the foot
of the Gross, and just be glad!
In that is found the highest wis
dom. In your ambition and mine,
coming now maybe to the fullest
truition, there is nothing but the
ashes of apples of Sodom ifthe Truth
be not accepted and acknowledged
upon the Bonded knee and with the
proud face of Faith, looking ahead
forever looking ahead.
Believe this-nOt M -believe this,
my beloved. 1t is not preaching, it
is not sermonizing-it is Truth!
0 heart Of mine, we shouldn't
worry! Just be glad.
That is the essence, the spirit of
all earthly wisdom, for it is the
phrasing of the law of the Most
High. None Of US mortals dare dis
obey the admonition.
You know how it is yourself, my
beloved. You know, every one OF
you, the heart-breakings and the
heart-bleedings of the common
everyday life OF the faithful, Tor it is
those who are most faithful that suf-
fer most, who r given the most ex-
quisite pain and the most exquisite
joy!
1t is yours to suffer, yours to be
strong, yours to be-just glad, 1t is
yours to forgive, to forget, and to
love. This is the appointed way Of
the faithful, and along that way the
flowers bloom, love l%oiters, and the
splendid glory Of human communion
shines in undimmed radiance. There
shadows sometimes fall, but they
fall upon a light that merges shadows
into joys.
And all the trials and struggle:
and triumphs Of every one of you are
for the good Of humanity.

a FAMILIAR swiNDLE.


Sioux City Man F%lim-Aamed Out Of $50.
Special to Times Republican.
Sioux City, April 24.-The police are
looking for a man who swindled Ray
S. Phillips, q gunsmith of this city. The
fellow succeeded In getting away with
$50 of Mr.. Phillips money by means of
a familiar dodge.
The stranger walked into the store
and asked Mr.. Phillips If he could give
himsa $40 bill in exchange for bills of
smaller denominations. He had in his
hand a roll of bills, most OF them OF the
81 denomination. He explained that he
about to send some money home to
his mother.
MI. Phillips was accommodating. He
had a $40 bill and was willing to make
an exchange. The stranger counted
out his money and found that he had
$40 in the proper change, but lacked
the additional 81 to make the $40.
We'll. row., l thought l had $50 in
change here" he remarked. I'll have
to go out and get a dollor."
He3had put the $40 into the letter he
about to send to his mother and
had put the letter into his pocket. He
pulled out the letter ostensibly, and
it down on the desk, said he
would leave 1t there until he returned
with the needed 81.
MI. Phillips waited. The man did
not return. Mr.. Phillips opened the let
ter to take back his $50. There was no
money in it. The CRATER had switched
letters.

Professor Dexter Makes a Thoro
Investigation Into Stats
tics of Football Injuries
FINDS IT is NOT HAZARDOUS
Chances That Player on College Team
Will Receive Hurts That Will Cause
Loss of Time From Studies Only One
in Two Hundred-Professor Dexter's
Summary.
Special to Times Republican.

Iowa City, April 24.-"There is small
chance of injury in football" is the re-
port of an expert statistican, Professor
Edwin G. Dexter, of the University OF
Illinois, who has made a thoro investi-
cation into football injuries during the
past ten years. Professor Dexter's in
vestigation was conducted at the re-
quest of the National Association of
State Universities, and was commune
Gated to the members of the association
today. The chances that a football
player on a college team will receive in
from his studies are found by Professor
Dexter to be one in two hundred. Pro-
fessor Dexter suggests that this pro-
portion is much below hat of other
sports, which the public does not con
slider dangerous.
There has been great exaggeration
Of football injuries by the press" says
Professor Dexter. A very thorough in
vestigation OF all the cases of injuries
reported in football shows that but
three men have received fatal injury
at college football in the past ten years.
Further investigation of these three
cases relieves varsity. football of much
of the blame for them. One of the cases
occurred at the University of Iowa in
1900. A member of the senior class who
had been forbidden by the physical
director to play football on account OF
physical weakness, played In a class
game during the physical directors ABB
sence, and received a fatal injury. AT
another college the second death oc-
Cured on an unauthorized department
team. Details of the third death could
not be obtained.
Speaking of the popular idea Of the
number of football casualties and its
source, the press, Professor Dexter says
In computing the figures which form
the basis of the present study, I was
struck by the discrepancy between
these actual figures and the reports of
football injuries and serious injuries
as they appear in. the daily papers.
During the football eason n can
harry pick up a metropolitan sheet
without being stared at by one or more
such fiaring headlines.
Professor Dexter's conclusions,
briefly, are: /. About one college man
in ten, the country over, plays football.
2. About twice as large a proportion of
students in smaller colleges play than
in larger colleges. 8. The number of
football players who are per-
manently injured. or Who die from the
effects of the game is so small as to
be practically a negligible quantity.
4. College football is adequately super
vised in nearly all the institutions. 5.
The opinions of the college officers in
favor of it are. speaking roughly, pro-
%portioned as IL to l. 6. The newspaper
accounts OF injuries seem to be grossly
exaggerated; not SO much so in the case
Of players upon other teams. z. Ac-
insurance statistics would lead
us 10 believe that many other forms
of sport are more dangerous than foot
ball.

Oskaloosa, April 24.-Hon. A. G.
Rankin's campaign began here on Sun

was full. Blu that was a union service

the address was vivid. fresh, and i'm
pressive and was listened to with I'M
tagging attention. The meeting of
last night, however, was significant.
The large attendance and the presence
of the labor organizations of the city
in a body, gave 1t a special significance.
And a more logical. lucid, and convinc-
ing speech than was made that night
by Mr.. Rankin, 1t is scarcely possible
to imagine. Every fact, every sentence,
every word, told, and when a motion
was made at the close Of his speech
to organize a Marshal Club" the re-
spcnse was a truly remarkable evidence
OF the depth of the conviction produced
by 1t.
At this writing we expect to organize
one OF the largest clubs in the state.
