good as, they are so far this year. He
planted early and they now have such
a good start that there is little likeli-

A japanese Innocent

Now this Oramuri Oki
Was quiet little Jap,
With face that was as guileles
AS school gir's is-perhap.
He had come across the ocean,
Thru its storms of rain and sleet.
And he landed here in Holly
Just in time to weed the beet.
Small of stature was this Oki,
With a smile upon his face
That for pure and simple blandness
Would Cheshire cat disgrace.
And we thought with satisfaction
How we'd fool this heather man
Who had eyes just like a weasle
And face OF rat-and-tan.
So we taught him all the cuss words
That were in our repertoire,
And he soon could swear as fluent
AS a cowboy could require.
But when we-all tried to polish
Up the heathens parlor talk
There was where we got against it
Cause the little cuss would balk.
| will not forget the morning
That we went to Sunday school,
For we thought the little heather
Should be taught the golden rule;
And how, when his charming teacher
Tried some gospel truths to tell,
How our guileless Oki chartered:
Thank You, miss; please go to-
This was worse than we expected
From our education stunt
And we tried to PIT the kibosh
On the little heather runt.
But when once his tongue got started
Spite of threats and curses brown,
He just cussed in smiling manner
All the saints from Peter down.

April 29th, 1906, they celebrated
their golden wedding with dining
at their home in this city.
Wedding bells that ring in youth
are merry and joyful, but their
sweetness is not to be compared to
the ones that ring the golden chimes
of fifty years of welded happiness
happiness greater because of cor.
rows bravely borne and pleasurers
rightly received. Surely nothing
can exceed the contentment that
must be theirs when after the Joy
bells of youth have ceased to ring,
and the responsibilities of middle
life are passed they on their golden
wedding day can see their children
and their childrens' children around
them, and feel that they have set
them good example, pointing
them always to pleasures greater
than earth can give. Looking back
on a well spent life old age is but
"silver crowningnthat shall change
in time the golden rays of heavenly
