AS the anniversary OF the birth OF
one of Americas most beloved poets
and citizens again rolls around, we
feel even more keenly the force OF his
simplicity. his sincerity, and his SYM
pathy
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Is the
poet Of the people He has word to
soothe us In sorrow, for he knew its
true meaning and felt an all embrac-
ing sympathy for all who sorrow. He
was a man of stalwart patriotism who
was ready to fight or write for his
country The simple man, simple In
theme and diction, but with his simpli-
city he combined grandeur and
strength appealing to all mankind,
Had Longfellow lived he would have
today celebrated the one hundred and
second anniversary Of his birth. Let
us TODAY consecrate our lives to his
ennobling ideas Let us read anew
and be inspired by his poems OF hui
manity, love, and charity.
While he wrote many poems OF
length and much works In prose, still
1t IS to his Simple and heartfelt lays"
that we turn when The day is done,
and the darkness falls from the wings
of night" and there steels over us "A
feeling Of sadness and longing that Is
not akin to pain" When we seek
help and advice he knows our needs
and extends a helping hand. He tells
us:
Build today, then, strong and sure,
With a firm and ample base;
And ascending and secure
Shall tomorrow find Its place
This alone can we attain
To those turrets. whore the eye
Secs the world as one vast plain,
And one boundless reach OF sky,
He knows the anguish of the heart
In the presence OF death, and in his
soliloouy, Footsteps OF Angels. one
cannot help sbut appreciate his own
feelings and be cheered. To him the
memories OF the past appear and with
them his beautiful wife.
Who unto nv youth was given,
! More than all things else to love me
And Is now a saint in heaven.
| With a slow and noiseless footstep
Il
! Comes that messenger divine,
| Takes the vacant chair beside me
Lays her gentle hand In mine
! And she sits and gazes at me
/ With those deep and tender eyes,
Like the stars, so still and saint-like,
Looking downward from the skies
Uttered not. yet comprehended,
Is the spirits voiceless prayer,
Soft rebukes In blessings ended,
Breathing from her lips OF air.
| Oh, though oft depressed and lonely
All my tears are laid aside.
II but remember only
Such as these have lived and died.
To the man OF public life. In the tur
moll and strife OF the political activ
ity, his optomistic philosophy caut
for eren greater things.
Thou, too, sail on. o ship of state!
Sail on. o Union, strong and great!
Humanity with all its fears. -
With all the hopes OF future years.
Is hanging breathless on thy fate.
