CLOSE BY THE SHANNON SIDE.

Inspired by tales of other climes nv fancy
bade me roam,
And this tho Erin gave me birth, kind par
ents, friends and home
so bidding early friends adieu and pressing
one fair hand,
With aching heart | made nv start to seek
a distant land.
My mother gave me hallowed tears, my
father gave me gold,
My every act of childhood days their loving
hearts unrOlled,
For II they nurtured other sons | seemed
their greatest pride,
But now they lie where | would die, close by
the Shannon side.
An alien shore has fostered me through
many lonely year,
But as sad memories crowd my heart greet
few comrades here.
And yet, If tattering coat wear or pace a
matless floor,
NO Irish lad with features sad goes hungry
from my door.
Return to me my mothers love. nv youth
and native land,
My fathers smile and kindly word whene'er
he took my hand,
Confer the boon of shedding tears above nv
promised bride
Then let me sleep where both did weep,
close by the Shannon side.
Though banished far from Erin's isle, love
her sacred soil,
Her valiant sons with brawny arms who
live by daily toll,
Her bards, whose sweetly thrilling strains
inspire the deepest soul
And send loves dart through every heart
unto the farthest POLE
They called thee poor old Ireland once, but
faithful Ireland now,
And bravest heroes of the past wrought
laurels on thy brow
Whilst he who sent the patriots mite in
helping turn the tide
deserves grave far DER the wave, close by
the Shannon Side
May time befriend those loyal sons now
pleading for their right,
Their lives prolong until success be crown
ed by victory's light.
Although whilst bribeless fate ordains in
~, stead of those who pray,
The pleading arm unwarned of harm may
perish ERE the day.
The cherished forms of long ago now moul-
der in the tomb,
The withered flowers upon their graves
forget their yearly bloom;
And yet, this heart will daily pray till men,
DRY fails to chide,
My years of grief may find relief close by
the Shannon side

INCORPORATING IN 1907.

A big year and busy one is ahead for
motor boating. Evidences of increas-
ing in terest and activity will be seen in
all dep artments of power craft constuc-
ton and utility. One reservation, how
ever, must be made. The day of the
paper-weight racing hull, equipped with
engines of abnormally high horse power
in comparison with the length of the
boat, has passed. No one regrets it.
Mile records were meaningless, made
over a stretch of smooth water by boats
SO frail that they were worse than help
less when required to encounter the
most moderate blow, let alone their in
ability to run a score of miles without
engine trouble.
From the hysteria for unusal records,
by abnormal if not absolutely freakish
boats, saner conditions have been
evolved. The big events of the year
will illustrate these tendencies in a
marked degree. Cruising will be the
popular diversion as we'll as sport of the
poWer-boat enthusiasts this season.
The international race from New York
to Bermuda for the James Gordon
Bennett cup, the contests from this
city to the jamestown Exposition at
at Norfolk, Va, the New Rochelle
Marblehead run, in addition to some
long distance runs on the Great Lakes
by western clubs, all have the same OBJ.
jects in view, the development of stand
ard, useful boats, combined with per-
sonal comforts and just enough of the
competitive element thrown in to put
a premium on individual skill.
1t is good sign of the changed con-
ditions toward saner methods and bet
ter boats to note that the various yacht
clubs that are encouraging the develop
ment and competition of serviceable
boats are enforcing strict regulations
directed alike to the safety of the &C.
cupants as well as to the production Of
bona fide cruising boats-Frank w.

THE DREAM.

Last night dreamt of daffodils-
They tell me now the night was cold,
That rugged winds swept barn and fold
l only saw the daffodils.
They did not grow in clustered guise,
But, one by one, by bush and tree,
Their joyous eyes looked up at me,
Ger brmmed with candor and surprise.
Forgot in this subdued delight
No sound of winter reached the dells,
Where, like peal of fairy bells,
The brooks were Ginning all last night
And though old winter, bold and sere,
Went raging, twas no other thing
Than the shy soul of unborn spring
That whispered in my dreaming ear
