Talking about lights, about a
month ago I had occasion to 60 out
Boundary street in the early evening
for a short constitutional, and if you
want to feel a dark street just walk
along this street in front Of the res
licences of DR.. Mcintosh and Mr..
Mower and you can actually feel it.
I mean the f'ackness Of darkness. If
you ever had Jour flesh to crawl or
your hair to rise you can imagine
ones feelings passing along this pub
lie street when the mantle Of night is
thrown over the earth. I don't often
60 out at night and I am glad Of it..
I am "just crazy''-I believe that is
a good expression-about lots Of
light. I do not prefer darkness to
light.
I was walking down the street the
other day and I noticed some pretty
red signs tackled to electric light
posts and I suppose to telephone
posts. These are very pretty and or
namental and add greatly to. the
civic beauty Of the city. They evi-
deneee the fact that we are modern
city-is that good GRAMMAR Will
Prof. Settler tell me? You sec I had
very limited education and would
like to know-but,as I was going on to
say, if I were the commissioners Of
public works, or the telephone
people which I am not-I would
not permit the poles to be Or
namented in this fashion. I am afraid
ornaments Of this character will have
the effect to chill the enthusiasm Of
our people in other civic odornmen,s.
But, I reckon this is none Of my buc-
ness and one who has so little should
possibly hold it's peace, butt I just
cant help it.

I see from The Herald and News
that the Civic association failed to
meet. Now, that is too bad. How
can I get The Idler's park without
the cooperation Of this organization.
All things are possible if the women
determine, and when they do, the
thing has already happened. Please
call another meeting and put new
life into the organization. The wo-
men Of Newberry must not admit
that the organization can't be made
a vital force in this community, for
it can, and a force for good.

And the big brown house was alive with
fun
From the basement door to the old
roof tree.
Like garden flowers the little ones grew.
Nurtured and trained with the ten

Warmed by loves sunshine, bathed in
its dew.
They bloomed into blossoms like
But one Of the boys grey weary one
day,
And leaning his head on his mothers
breast,
He said. q am tired and cannot play.
Let me sit awhile on your knee and

She Graded him close in her fond en-

She hushed him to sleep with her
And raptuTous love still lighted his
face
When his spirit had Joined the heaven

Then the eldest girl with her thought

Who stood where "the brook and the
river met"
Stole softly into Paradise
Ere the river had reached her slen-

And as each in turn became a man,
The boys proudly went from the IA

The girls were women, so gentle and
fair
That lovers were speedy to win:
And with orange blossoms in braided
hair.
The old home was left, new homes to
begin.
So. one by one, the children have gone,
The boys were five and the girls were
three;
And the big brown house is gloomy
and lone,
With but two old folks in its COM

They talk to each other about the past
As they sit together at eventide,
And say, "All the children we keep at

Are the boy and the girl who in

Weary whites Forced to Leave.

Weary Wlllles Forced TO Leave.
Twenty-one gentlemen of the
road were gathered up into the
folds of the local police and the
sheriff last Sunday morning and
escorted as far west as the brick
yard from thence to continue in
their quest of the golden fleece or
something like that. The weary
Willies were found clustered to-
gether wherever a few trees afford
ed shade, some in Homewood park
some on Robbins peninsula and
others in various wooded places
about town. The main camp was
found by the lake just north of the
depot. Here Mulligan or Irish
stew feast was in progress and the
officers kindly waited until the re-
past had disappeared before they
told of their mission. 1t being the
Sabbath the Mulligans made no pro-
test but proceeded to proceed at
once.
AS usual there was one in the
bunch who acted as spokesman for
the party. He told the sheriff that
he had as fine home as anyone
could wish for but that he did not
care to go home without a ''stake. -
He was not tramping. Mercy no!
He was just a plain working man
looking for work. The one that
made the best bid for his services
could have it. Of course not hav-
ing been all thru the world yet he
did not know when and where the
best bid would come. But he felt
sure the day would finally dawn and
then there would be something do
ing or somebody done.
Willmar has entertained but few
of the Sons of the Road this sum-
mer and the constant alertness of
the authorities is not increasing the
city's reputation as lounging re.

Of the eligible age and interested
in the organization of such COM
panies are requested to meet at the
Bonde Hall next Monday evening
promptly at 8 o'clock, when the
plan will be explained in detail.
Parents are also invited to be pres
ent.
We feel that aside from the fact
that this feature will prove most
interesting one at the fair, it offers
an excellent opportunity for healthy
exercise for the boys. They will
furthermore be under strict mill
tary discipline, and will learn the
art of obeying orders and executing
them promptly and efficiently.
Every boy who shows ability will
be promoted to non-commissioned
officer, and there is thus an addi-
tional incentive for him to do good
work. Parents will never regret
having their boys enlist. and we
urge that they do all they can to
make the thing a success. Only a
limited number of boys will be ac-
cepted, and as it will be a case of
first come, first served, all boys are
requested to see to it that they are
at the hall promptly on time.
Further particulars regarding en-
trance fees, drill hours, ect., ect. !,
will be published next week.
