played with Gilmore and with Sousa's
band. He is assisted by fifty other
picked soloists.

built, yet it has been crowded at every

SONG OF A GLOVULE

am but a drop Of moisture
To be found most anywhere;
In the shadow of the midnight
Or the brazen MONDAY glare;
My tale, the merest babhle--
Throughout the centuries long,
When set to rhyme and metre
Presents the globule's song.
While hid beneath the surface
OF a mountain fastness, where
Winds sang a mournful requiem,
was free from thought or care
OF the story of the springlet,
The brook. the river, wide
OF the grand. old rolling ocean,
Or its rising, falling tide.
Y knew nothing of the gladness
That comes with childhood's years
OF the lover and his sweetheart,
OF their smiles or falling tears;
OF King Solar, In his ferceness,
As he seers the blooming plain,
OF bright. old smiling Luna,
OF the summers falling rain.
But since then I've Travelled some.

Down the hillside. cross the plain
Rolled along a mighty river,
Drifted far across the main;
Sailed in grandeur through blue ether
Till the thunders changed my
course,
Brought wealth TO toiling husbandmer
And in torrents caused them loss.
rs soothed the brow of labor,
AS I heard its weary Sigh,
Dimned the sight Of weeping maider
As ] trembled in her eye;
Quenched the thirst OF wayworr

In the desert oasis, fair,
Floated the germ Of disease in tbs
gutter,
Spreading illness everywhere.
But on each of these occasions

The force that knows no faltering,
The die that's never late;
In MAPPING out the actions
OF a globule. man OF nation,
