PATS PARADISE

For years the rebellion dragged YEARLY on.

And souls reveiIe vakened at dawn

So dragged all the sorry misfortunes OF
So long the and strife
The things that at first to abhor
Became the vocations OF life.
And at last when the fighting
And battle-scarred banners furled,
he who had lived by the sword and the gun
find a task in the world
So 1t happened they waited around
To their discharges few
OF the peacereeased comrades began PROFOUND
The things they likely to do.
Some thought they thought they that
Til each one gave his views
When one, half Joking inquired Of Pat
What work he intended to choose
Now be Il remembered a through the
Pat found enough sleep
And the reveille call he had learned to abhor
With a hate that lasting and deep
And Pat studied awhile he answered and said
Faith, there's thing know mighty well:
If I only had few thousand dollars ahead
I'd build a place for dwell
An Id have me a bed an good wan, you know,
An a place Just beyant the lawn
Where a bugler would and the revelle blow
Every a the breakin o dawn
Then I'd slip out o bed an the window I'd boost,
An shout at him saucy an deep:

Do You
Want TO
Change
Y our
Work? ?

Before the days of the l. c. S.,
if man wanted to change his oc-
cupation he had to let 90 the ladder
he was on and begin all over again
at the bottom of the new ladder.
The /. c. S. system of spare time
training by mail has changed all
that. To-day if a man desires to
change to more reInuuerative,
more congenial occupation he can
prepare himself for the new occu-
patton while pursuing the old.
The l. c. S. has made the way
and the cost both easy.
fyou want TO change to better
paying occupation or if you want
to advance more rapidly in your
present line of work the first thing,
the important thing, is to ask HOW
