The Poets Corner

If you will sing a song you go along,
In the face of the real or fancied wrong,
In spite of the doubt if you'll fight it out,
And show heart that is brave and stout;
If you'll laugh at the jeers and refuse the
tears,
You'll force the ever-reluctant cheers
That the world denies when a coward cries.
To give to the man who bravely tries.
And you'll win success with little song
If you'll sing the song as you go along!

Bicycle Stolen.

Nils Pau1son left his wheel in the
hallway of the apartments of the
Palisade Supply Market building on
the evening of May 4. He wasn't
gone long, but when he came back
the bicycle was gone. No trace has
been found of the thief, although a
boy was seen riding a wheel across
the vacant lot next to the Freys the
same evening, who seemed to be III
a great hurry, and who only rode the
faster when accosted as to his speed.
He was not seen again, as he made
off in the darkness.

The Sun, the Wind, and the Rain.

BY Charles Buxton Going
The dawn, the wind, and the sun!
oh. the bright hours of love
When the soft wind blows the scent OF the
rose,
And the brave sun shines above!
The sun. the rain, and the wind
Ay. how the strong days go
When the great winds cry aloft in the sky
And the rain but brings the bow!
The dusk. the mist, and the rain,
Al, the gray twilight brief
in pain
And beat on the fallen leaf.
The calm, the stars, and the night
And oh, for that journey far :.
When the soul shall find what there lies be-
mind,
And leap to the utmost star!
From "StarGlow and Song"

days later I got out of short ribs with a sizable little bundle.
 Well it went along that way for near ly six weeks, or until I took my brother away from the institution, and my crazy friend never pulled a loser on me.
 "Along toward the final days of my brothers stay in the institution it oc- cured to me that seeing as how I was fattening up a heap on the market tips of my insane friend, it would be only the fair thing for mo to cut up the profits with him. l told him as much.
 T don't know anything about how you're fixed I said to him. but you've enabled me to draw down the change on everything you've opened your face about to le. and you're in on the split. l don't want anything for nothing. Who'll I hand the check to for a percentage of this rake-off you've put me in the way of yanking in?'
 He laughed quietly at the suggestion.

 Tested His Acumen.
 ''For eight or 10 days more I subjected him to the same sort of tests. He in- var1ably took good hour or so off in the quiet of his apartments to dope out the answers to the market problems that I submitted to him, and when he returned to where I was talking with my brother, carrying his neatly written memoranda with him, he went over the subject with the clearness and the thoroughness of a man who had an entire mastery of his subject.
 Cotton is too cheap today. or was yesterday he said to me one day as soon as I arrived at the institution from New port You'd better buy yourself a few thousand bales for the rise. The rise is overdue
 T asked him to elucidate, and he was there with an elucidation, supported by figures intricately but reasonably worked out, that convinced me beyond all doubt that cotton was buy. bought cotton on the following morning by wire from Newport and two days later cleaned up tidily on a neat little advapce which proved, however, to be only temporary.
 Have you sold that cotton?' my in- sane friend asked me on the afternoon when I showed up, after having got rid of my cotton.
 Today replied. Made nice little thing of it, too
 [" Better sell a little cotton tomorrow and beat it going and coming my insane friend said ot me. 'Cotton's leetle too dear right now
 "He had the figures for this switch, too, and the next day, in the teeth of the advice of a number of fellow traders at Newport, sold a wad of cotton. The cot ton market petered out the next day, and when 1t slumped to my level hiked out and cleaned out again.
 Leave Cotton Alone.
 "'Better leave cotton alone for a while" my crazy man told me the next time I saw him. I'll be fooling around doing nothing in particular, for quite a bit now, and 1t isn't worth monkeying with. But, say, short ribs look like a buy. Better stake yourself to some short ribs"
 Now, I don't know any more about short ribs than I did about Paraguyan fiamingoes But I got into communica- ton on the following day with a Chicago market friend of mine and asked him over the long distance phone what he thought of short ribs
 "They're going to take a lift, I reckon, my Chicago man replied. and so I went in for rise in short ribs. Three
