Ballad Of the Jester.

Jester, with our cap and bells,
Ever jingling merrily,
What unkindly fate compels
Men to laugh at verify?
sharper than a serpent's tooth"
That the audience shouts with glee
When a Jester speaks the truth?
When he drops his mask, and tells
What his heart holds and sets free
Something of the tide that wells
From his breast, and will not be
All northumberland then to see
Unbelieving smiles, foresoothl
Mask againl@Tis agony
When a Jester speaks the TRUTH
Let some Gree cast her spells
over him, poor fool When he
Stammers of the love that dwells
In his soul of souls-does she
Not laugh, saying carelessly,
"Clever liar? Hapless youth
IT'S a fate he cannot fee,
When a Jester speaks the truth
L'ENVOI.
Princess, thou hast laid on me
All this heartbreak, all this truths:
Yet / swear on Bonded knee
That the Jester speaks the truth

FAIRGROUNDS.
ON the Brooklyn Eagle:

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
Schools are poor substitute for
country homes and Fairgrounds for
green fields, but when it is remem-
bered that for thousands of city chill
dren there can be no country homes
and no fields, because their parents
are miserably poor and cling to the
town for its society as the only allie
Walton of their poverty, the debt of
the public to the teachers and mana
gers of our vacation schools and rec
reation centers is seen to be large
one. Some might ask what debt the
neE and women who stay here in the
heat and uproar when they might be
lettering their health among the hills.
II is an actual debt for property SPAR
ed. Were the boys not allowed and en-
couraged to play where it is proper
that they should do so, their vitality
would expend itself in mischief. The
street lights that are smashed every
day and every night, the windows that
are broken by baseballs and stones.
the cats and dogs that are abused and
killed, bear witness to the need for
an outlet for the invincible spirit of
our youth, and that need will not be
properly recognized until there is at
least one playground in every ward.
Parks we have in fair proportion to
the public requirement, but recreation
grounds are not tenth enough in
size or number.

THE VISITING MASSA-
CHUSETTS VOLUNTEERS

The visit of the 5th Massachusetts
to Canada is sign of the times; and
of good times. 1t is visible evidence
of the new Anglo-American under
standing. Private citizens will visit all
the countries of the world without
comment no matter what the relations
may be between the nations of the
visitors and the visited; but when a
uniformed regiment marches into the
territory Of another country under
arms and is received with salvos of
cheering, and not of artillery, the
bond of friendship is strong and pop
ular and bears all the marks Of per-
manence
1t was a novel sight for Montrealers
to see an American regiment parade
under arms on the Champ de Mars;
but it was a sight of which they de-
monstrated their keen approval. 1t is
a sight, too, which the wiser states
men of the two countries should en-
deavor to get repeated Such object
lessons of the official amity existing
between the great Anglo-Saxon Re-
public and the great Anglo Saxon
Empire cannot be presented too often
to the eyes of the people of both.
