A POEM WORTH WHILE
THE SANDS OF DEE
BY Rev. Charles Kingsley

ooh, Mary go and call the cattle home
And call the cattle home
And call the cattle home
Across the sands of Dee
The western wind was wild and dark with foam'
And all alone went she.
The western tide crept up along the sand,
And Ger and Ger the sand,
And round and round the sand,
AS far as eye could see.
The rolling mist came down and hid the land;
And never home came She
"Oh is it weed or fish, or floating hair
A tress of golden hair,
A drowned maiden's hair,
Above the nets at sea :?
Was never salmon yet that shone fair
Among the stakes of Dee.
They rowed her in across the rolling foam
The cruel, crawling foam,
The cruel hungry foam,
To her grave beside the sea
But still the boatmen hear her call the cattle home
Across the sands of Dee.

the man who is unfortunate. who has
sickness or anything of that kind to
contend with, but what is the reason
in the same neighborhood for so great
a difference? 1t is not always an ac-
c1dent or sickness. but because one
man is the farmer and the other is
not farmer. I think we can do no
better work than help speed the day
when we may educate our farmers
in our public schools so that they can
read the agricultural papers and bulle-
tins intelligently. The trouble is not
that farmers do not read the agricul-
tural books, papers and bulletins. but
that their early education has been
neglected and thew are unfamiliar with
the terms that we are compelled to
use in writing upon agricultural top
les. There is no greater need in our
education today than something that
will assist in connecting, our expert
ment station workers, our agricultural
press and our agricultural writer's

Really Poor Penmna.

There is a certain Philadelphia phv-

is renowned among his friends as me
worst penman in the Quaker city. He
used to write them letters and then
feel hurt when they could not read
them. When he wrote to persons vino
were not familiar with his scrawi they
frequently would not know whom the
letters were from. Some time aeo
he introduced typewriter into his
office, and this rendered the body of
the letter Ineligible, but did not clear
up the difficulty over the signature.
Now, however, says the Record. he
has had made rubber stamp bearing
his name and address in printing. He
signs his name in the usual scrawl. but
alongside he impresses his stalup. Il
is little humiliating, he says. but he
no longer has any trouble about per.
