Maine Gossip
Since DoIlie Went Away,

The house is mighty lonesome, and dark
ness dims the day
Since Dollic went away-since Dollie went
away!
She went to see the play ground where
the little angels play
Oh the world it ;Iin't the same world
since DOllie went away!
The sweetest of the little folks that ever
saw the light.
She made the stars to blossom in the
shadow fields of Night;
And we miss her-in that country where
the whte-winged angels stay,
But we hear the harps Of Heaven since
Dollie went away.
But weary is the waiting till we reach the
meeting place,
And see the light OF heaven in the beau
ty of her face;
But the gardens have no roses, and the
blue skies blend with gray
Since that sad time when Dollic kissed
Goodbye and went away!

When the ice is l. inches thick there

Portland Express: Throughout all
the good fellowship, and fun. and rail-
lery which helped so successfully to
pass the hour following the banquet of
the Maine Press Association at the
Columbia last night, there ran an evil
dcnce of spirit Of determination to
make the organization more of a force
for good i'll the future than it has been
in the past. Between the lines of the
stories that were told and the Jokes
that were so much relished, could be
read the earnest purpose of the editors
OF Maine. renewed purpose, to have
the organization form an important
factor in the serious work in which
they are engaged. The thought of the
responsibilities Of the men who daily
and weekly preach to tremendous con-
gregationS was stirred by every sneak
or. Mingled with the rhyIning iarcon
OF the Indian names with which the
state aboundS, was this thought
brought forcibly to every mind by the
poets skiiful pen. Evident among the
Sidc-splitting "reminiscences of Holman
Days early journalistic DAYS was the
lesson Of this single thought. In the
graceful periods Of President Ogiar's
frequent remarks and happy introduce
TONS the same idea and purpose shonc
now era has dawncd for the Maine
Press Association. and its Influence
Will be felt in every home where the
Maine newspapers are read and
cherished.
