proves, it is the business Of all who nave

to plant there it's roots, that they may
produce among each people the living
works Of Cod"

Things to Remember.

"a little hope, a little faith serene,
A little word of strength for those who
fall,
A little smiling, tho tears come between.
A little charity if need should call
And, 0! not paltry is our life, nor small.
But big and fine and filed with sweet
delight,
If that we keep, each for the sake of all,
These little things in sight"

Life's Tragedies.

Thou art not to be piticd, who hast
known
The threat of midnight when the fore
lands moan
And all the winds are out;
Dread and despair and anguisl-the
great things
That sit like crowns upon the brows
of kings
Or that queens weep about
If by these only thou hast been ac-
cursed,
Gricvc not too much; for these are
not the worst.
1t is the SLOW and softly dropping
tears
That bring the burrows to mans face;
the years,
Failing and fall'n in vain,
That turn the gold to gray upon his
head;
And the dull days to disappointment
wed,
And pain that follows pain
That makes life bitter in the mouth,
and strew
The dead With roses, but the quick
with yew.
Better a wide and windy world, and
scope
For rise and downfall of mighty
hope,
Than many little ills;
Better the sudden horror, the swift
wrong,
Than doubts and cares that die not,
and the long
Monotony that kills;
The empty dawns, pale stars and mar
row skies,
Mean hopes, mean fears, mean sor-
row and mean sighs.

Why Leave Your Nother

Why Leave Your NOther?
Why fly from the homes which youl
fathers protected
'Gainst the greed of the vulture and
wolf in their prey;
Why leave Il lone mother so sad and
detected,
When millions of voices are bidding
you stay?
Her valleys are faircr her waters arc
brighter,
Her music is sweeter than any of
earth;
Her story is told in tone to delight
her,
Why leave you that country of sun
shine and mirth?
Why barter for pelf in the marts OF
another
Mid hardships environing less
genial cline
Th talents and gifts that you owe tc
a mother
And destined to grace her in fulness
of time.
Oh, why did you falter, why show he1
such treason,
When constancy claimed a devotion
more true?
Come, speak for yourselves and give
us a reason
Why the land of your birth lost at
traction for you.
Are the tears that we shed DER scenes
we have parted
And the sighs and the sobs and last
loving kiss;
Are our griefs and our prayers fol
friends broken-hearted
Not an answer sufficient to clear us
of this?
NO. Then seek in the depths of 9
grief we would smother
Why eXiled we wandered our for
tunes to carve,
And you lie if you say you can fine
us another
But that which compelled us tt
leave her or starve,
Restore but her trade and the means
to recover
The commerce that sought every
part Of her Shore
And we pledge you the troth and tho
faith of a lover
The land Of the stranger shall know
us no more.

tinue much longer as Knoxville was the

criticism and protests. Kavanangh Is de-

upon the clubs themselves this year. To
that end he today submitted the propo-
sition to the various clubs by mail, and
asked that their votes be returned as
promptly as possible.
