1t spreads Its scattered blossoms out
for all the world to see;
Most of its boughs are withered SO no
leaf to them will cling
Yet still 1t answers soldierwise the
trumpet call of spring
And one may see 1t brace itself while
its few buds unfold
And try to look as splendidly as 1t
has been of old.
o, the old apple tree! Why. the va
grant honeybee
Will give 1t scarce a passing glance
the same as you or me
And yet it dons its tattered robe as
proudly as king
When through the warming air 1t
hears the trumpets of the spring;
And like an old, old man who stands
defiant of his years
1t quavers into weakest bloom when
springs shrill call it hears.
o, the old apple tree!--For a rest 1t
makes no plea
But mods with aged blitheness to the
callous honeybee;
With feeble, creaking stiffness 1t will
bend before the breeze
And try to dance as nimbly as the
other, younger trees
But best of all 1t gives anew its bios
som from the bud
| AS when long since it fairly dripped
with fragrant flower-iood.
o, the old apple tree Is as brave as
brave can be-
| Send that when you and I are old we
have such bravery!
That when the years have withered
us and left us bleak and bare
We rouse ourselves when all the trum-
pets of tie springtime blare,
| That we shrint not, nor hold ourselves
from Other folk apart
But show how love and life and light
are echoed In the heart

MNHiNk;

Could you possibly imagine John
L. Sullivan stalling through six
rounds, just to throw a little dust
into the eyes of prospective oppo-
nents at the ringside?
Well, l should say not.
John l.. was a real one. Whether
in exhibition or finish, he slammed
that massive right around so care
less like that the other fellow was
generally being counted out before
six rounds passed.
But here comes Jack Johnson
champion by reason of the heavy
weight crop being full of second
raters-who admits he stalled with
Jack O'Brien because he didn't
want to show Stanley Ketchel and
Al Kaufman anything.
Isn't that enough to drive a dog
away from a bone?
Johnson is almost as good at this
confessing thing as O'Brien. His
mouth opens like travelling bag
and something comes out that
would sound better if it hadn't
been uttered.
Johnson's latest, that he worked
under a pull with O'Brien, is a de-
liberate acknowledgement that he
double crossed the public which
paid to see him fight. If Johnson
really went into that affair under
wraps, some one ought to sue him
for obtaining money by false pre-
tense, for he is guilty by his own
words.
And this is the individual recog-
nized as the champion heavyweight
of the world? Shades of Sullivan,
Corbett, Mace, Heenan and Fitz'
simmons. It's enough to make
