pointed to this vital truth. DR.. Shops
Restorative was not made to dose the

Plea For Factory People.
You may think We factory people
Are an unimportant lot;
And the reason why God m ade US
Was He kinder just forgot;
And after He'd created US
He thought He'd let US stay
And scramble round on earth awhile
TO pass the time away.
Well, know we are unimportant
In one sense Of the word,
For to the tramps Of earthly fame
Our names are seldom heard;
But many of US have heart,
That's noble, true and kind,
With sunny disposition
And q gentle, loving mind.
Well divide with those in need,
If we only have dime;
We know the Lord will give it back
TO Us some other time.
Our treasures are in heaven,
Not here in gold or rank;
We'd rather trust it to the Lord
Than put il in bank.
And thus it is while at our work
We card, we spin or weave,
We are happy and contented,
And have but little time to grieve.
While the rattle Of the spindle,
The slubber or the loom
Puts sorrow, care or pain to flight
Or dispels cloud of gloom.
We all forget our troubles
And our trials here below,
As we listen to our shuttles,
While they rattle to and fro;
Yes, we watch the busy shuttle,
As back and forth it speeds,
And with pleasure watch the cut
marks
A-coming through the reeds.
Oh! if I was millionaire
Or financially so stout
I could down the whole Of Lexington
And the country round about,
I couldn't then be satisfied
Unless I had to 60
And set my looms a-running
When heard the whistle blow.
Say you don't like factory people?
Well, that's sinful, I declare;
! If by chance you get to heaven.
There'n be factory people there;
When there you meet with US you,
Please don't elevate your nose;
Well not have black oil on our hands
Nor cotton on our clothes.

enjoyed by the detained. The

comedy sketch were all very we'll
done and the boys are to be con.
graduated for the creditable show
ing made. The show was ably
, supported by Professor Burchard's
trained musicians, for without the
orchestra it would be impossible
to present show by home talent
After the show the men were
permitted to congregate in the
dollhouse corridors until the noon
hour. Much of the conversation
was devoted to talking about the
show and the boys who took par
in it. Another theme that wai
thoroughly discussed was the bill

providing for good time earnings
