Ce que Chantaient nos Pc
lie Petit Mousse Noir

oor lie grand mat dune corvette,
Un petit mousse nolr chantait,
Disent dune voix inquiete,
Ces mots que la brise emporta1t:
All! qui me rendra lie sourire
De ma mere m'ouvrant ses bras?
Filez, flez, mon navire;
Car lie bonheur m attend la-bas.
Quand Je parts, ma bonne mere
Me dit: 4" Tu vas sous d'autres
cleux.
De nos ssvannes la chaumlere
Va dispara1tre de tes ysux:
Psuvre enfant! 81 tn savais lire,
Je t'ecrirais souvent, helas!'
Fllez, filez, mon navire:
Car lie bonheur attend la. bas.
On te dira dams le voyage
Que pour l'esclaye est le mepris;
On to dlra que ton vissge
Est aussi som bre que les NUTS:
Sans ecouter, laisse-les dire,
Ton anne est blanche, eux men ont
pas.
Filez, flez, 8 mon navire;
Car lie bonheur M attend la-bas.
Ainsi chantait sur la misaine,
LIE petit mousse de tribord,
Quand tout a coup le capitaine
Lui dit en- lul montrant le port:
"Va mon enfant, loin du corsaire,
Sois llbre, ct fuis des occurs IN
gratis,
To vas revoir ia pauvre mere,
Et lie bonheur est dans ses bras

EVERYBODY HAPPY
Farmers Meeting Leaves All in
Very Good HumOr
"A LARGE ATTENDANCE


The farmers meeting here Tuesday
was an unqualified success. The at
tendance was large. the speeches were
good, the interest we'll sustained,
everything moved off without a hitch
the supper was excellent and every
body went home happy
There were few vacant seats in the
opera house when G.. M. Sprague as
chairman called the gathering to Or
der. Mr. Sprague, in a few well
chosen words, welcomed the farmers
to Sank Centre in behalf of the Com
mercial Club and the city. He then
introduced George Welsh. commission
er of immigration as the first speaker
Mr. Welsh made a good impression
from the start. He told the people
something of the resources of the
great state of Minnesota and urged
any who thought Of going elsewhere
to remain right here. Farm lands in
Minnesota he said, are as valuable as
those anywhere and the most of them
are superior to what are to be found
in many other states. Mr.. Welsh com
mended the business men of Sank
Centre for planning and carrying out
the meeting; he was sure it was a
good thing for the farmers and the
merchants to get together in such a
manner; it promotes good fellowship
and kindly feeling and at the same
time promotes the business interests
of all concerned.
Geo. w. Cooley, engineer for the
State Highway Commission, was the
second speaker Mr.. Cooley is an ex-
pert in his particular line, and for
over half an hour he entertained aud
interested the audience He told of
the work of the commission in their
efforts to advance the cause of good
roads in Minnesota. He emphasized
the fact that good roads mean as
lmuch as any other one thing TO the
farmer, ard that poor roads are a bad
Investment. Speaking of the State
Highway Commission Mr.. Cooley said
it was not the intention of the law to
saddle financial burden upon the
people by creating a lot of offices to
be filled with high salaried officers;
the end was to devise some method
in the matter of road building. He
explained that the system in vogue for
years for building roads is poor and
II
can best be done by experts. Mr..
Cooley's remarks were listened to
with much interest.
J. J. Ryan, business man of ST.
Paul, was the third speaker. Mr..
Ryan spoke briefly as the time was
growing late, but what he had to say
was right to the point. He believed
such meetings as this one were of
great value to the people. The build
ing up of a good town meant the
building up of the country and what
was of benefit to one was of benefit to
all. Farmers, he believed, should help
their home towns, as what helped
towns increased the value of farms
adjacent to them.
The last speaker was Hon. Julius
A. Schmahl, secretary of state. Mr..
Schmahl is one of the younger set of
state officers and has a reputation as
a hustler. He paid tribute to the
memory of the late Henry Keller and
the late Alphonso Barto, speaking in
the highest terms of their value to
the community and their service to
the state. He complimented Hon. j.
R. Howard, speaking of him as one OF
the most valuable and reliable mem
