Grandfather's BugIe.

(Regarding Frank Place. who lived
IN Derby in 1940 He was a bugler
in the English army, deserted with
another bugler and came to this coun-
try. Was arrested in Canada a one
time but escaped. A. F. McDougal,
the author of this poem now has the
bugle in his posession.)
The old stone walls are gray in
their shadows.
And the farmhouse looks lonely and
still.
In my dreams l can see from my win
dow
Those at home On the old Salem HILL
Wellington is out near the orchard,
The sheep are down over the hill:
Grandfather is digging potatoes,
And Grandma is out near the we'll.
The road through the gateway looks
natural
Up to the old house on the hill
The geese that rise as l pass them,
And Grandfather speaks out with a
will.
Many times we have played in that or
chard
Till the sun set far in the west
But it will always be fresh in my
memory
For there are now only four of US left.
They spent many years on that hill
top,
Through the long black winter and
snow,
But they left the old homestead for
ever,
Their trials and troubles are o'er.
In a clear autumn evening at candle
light,
AS We sit in the yard by the door,
Grandfather is playing the bugle,
You can hear it miles from the door.
His bugle calling, it's wavering cry,
That rises and fills till its echoes die,
In gloomy vale and evening sky,
The heart thrilling call of Grand
fathers bugle.
If you heard it once in that hilly land,
And how it echoed and thrilled,
You might then be able to understand,
The power and love for that hill.
You might understand how a memory
clings,
You might understand how a fond
note brings,
How sweetly. how sadly the whole
strain rings,
1t was from my Grandfather's bugle

A Tribute.
Ny dear Brother Drew !:

My dear Brother Drew:
These busy days require so much at
our hands--H How blessed that memories,
pure and strengthening. of loved ones
gone before, may cheer and brighten
our pathway. Yea something more
than memories, for angelic help is one
of the most blessed Of the promises
of Gods word.
Your wife can be truthfully charac-
terized as one that had personally a
wellspring of genuine sympathy ana
helpfulness.
How many an oasis she has made
in the desert lands of disappointment
and sorrow in other hearts. No Won
der that she should have no anxious
feeling about the future for she had
lived so much in the haven OF rest
while still in the body. How wonder
fully she cheered and encouraged the
weary hearted pastor; as he went out
from her presence, he felt that a bene-
diction from praying soul had driven
the clouds away. She was so
largely of the optimistic spirit that
she lifted her friends over many
dark sea of discouragement. Bless
God for the life given that has flowed
from her personally. that has made
the arid places grow green with deeds
of human kindness. This life has
built the waste places into something
of beauty and goodness.
The smile, the kindly restful hand,
the cordial words of greeting surely
those who have known these have had
a benedictiOn that can never be for
! gotten. 1t might all be summed up
in the statement THAT an excellent
spirit was in her. "For her the day of
earthly life is done, she is associated
with the treasured Of the land that
knows no night. We, for a little time
shall now realize the luxury of the
quiet moments with her, who now has
no eventide of age or failing powers,
but knows as we cannot know that "at t
evening time it shall be light" Hers
was the beautiful life, not gained by
shut ting herself up from the world,
but the life that had not lost it's in
spiration or freshness. She loved to
mediate on the great thought of i'm
mortality, and in this way she brought
many a song of joy into the hearts OF
those who devotedly loved her.
She was brave and faithful, not will
ing to escape the burdens of life or
it's responsibilities as long as her
physical powers would admit.
"Alas for the person who never sees
The stars that shine through his bend
ing trees
Who hopeless lays his dead away,
Nor looks to see the breaking dav
Acl oss the mourner's heart to stray
Who hath not learned in hours of faith
The truth to flesh and sense unknown,
That life is ever Lord of death,
And Love can never lose it's own. y
"Soon the joy of heaven is ours.
Untouched by any pain.
And we're home-bound with the an
gels
Andhear their sweet refrain.
There is nothing half SO blessed
As going home again.
With many prayers for the com
fort and strength of yourself, ana the
brother and sister in the home.
have taken pleasure in expressing a
few senti inents Of appreciation of
your owed con- lpanion of many. years
anl orr heartfelt sympathy is yours
We are to remain ever your true
friends.
