How our hearts almost despair Till
the setting sun is low,
Feeling all our hopes have per1shed
with the one we cherished so.
One by one our hopes grow brighter
as we near the shining shore,
For we know across the river waits
the loved one gone before.
When we leave this world of changes
when we leave this world of care,
We shall find our missing loved one
in our Fathers mansion fair,
Yet again we hope to meet her when
the day of life is f1ed
When in Heaven with JOY to greet
her where no farewell tears are
she'd"

We have no suggestion to make, and
1t is to the council, because they are
the head. Call a meeting and have
fire company organized with say
ten members; pay each member so
much each year, but in order to re-
ceive any pay each member must
meet as often as once each quarter
for drill purposes and shall get out
to every fire. A member of the
council once said '4that the people
ought to show interest enough to
learn about using the fire apparatus. :
That is true, but it it is to be left
to that we will be as bad off as
ever. This is busy age and as
time is money, a few are not appar-
emily going to "show enough inter-
est to give up their time for moth
ing. There are other ways, such as
paying the first one to the fire house
so much and then each member SO
much each on reporting for duty
within a limited time after the alarm
but as fires are so few and far be-
tween there would be not the inter-
est taken as there would in receiv-
ing stated sum. But first of all
there must be the fire company, or
it would be like going to war with
out knowing how to shoot. H..
