Tribute.

Written for The Evening Star by Charles w. S,
yenson.
Pay tribute not alone DER dead
Who claim the tears due sacred dust
Whose lives to valor long were wed,
Whose deeds We're wise and just
Rather. o friend. pause in thy quest
For golden wealth. for wider fame
And give to those not richly blest
Immunity from blame.
Pause thou and praise the men who try,
Albeit failure crowns their work;
And gladly sound the names on high
OF those who never shirk
Some fit reward to merit give;
Great kindness unto error show:
Commend the good in those who live;
Perhaps the dead may know
Give flowers fair flowers, to tender hands
That clasp thy love and speed IL far;
And watching by the ebbing sands
Look up and see life's star.
And ever softly speak word
To put new hope In those who fail,
For censure's voice Is never heard
Where prayers alone avail.

prominent in church work Some weeks
ago she started to practice with the
choir for Easter.
Rev. Barry has steadfastly refused
20 recognize the remarriage of divor-
lees, and has privately stated he would
not allow Mrs. Adams to sing
Many church people are now opposed
to Rev Barry's attitude, as they think
that it is FASHIONED They claim
that an exception should be made in
favor of Mrs. Adams. as she has been
so prominently identified with church
and charitable work. Mrs. Adams is
the daughter of Charles White. who is
