 "Yes, I orter," was the sullen reply
 You have the land, I suppose, and can get the seed.'
 "Yes, I guess so.''
 Then why don't you go into the specu- lation?'
 No use, stranger" sadly replied the cracker, ''the old woman is too lazy to do the ploughin and plantin'."

EARLHAM COLLEGE
FALL TERM OPENED

The opening of work at Earlham col
lege officially commenced Thursday
when the students gathered in the
chapel on the school grounds for the
regular exercises. President Robert l..
Kelly delivered the principal address
OF the occasion. and devoted most of
his time talking about the opportuni-
ties at the start of the term. During
his speech he brought out the four
points that the students should aim to
achieve: That they should learn how
to think, how to feel, how to will, and
how to do. The president also spoke
of the splendid spirit of cooperation
that existed between the various ele-
ments of the college last year, and
hoped that this same spirit would be
in evidence now. His address was en-
Enthusiastically received by the students,
and furnished an excellent beginning
for the new year.
After the chapel services, the pupils
went to their several classes, and the
regular schedule was followed. At
fairs began smoothly, and hardly a
hitch in the program was noticed. No
time was allowed the students to get
acquainted with the place, as the reel
tations commenced at once, and occu.
pied the usual time.

A WEALTHY WIFE

He used to hate the idle rich,
And often spoke with dread
About the fearful dangers which
Were looming up ahead;
He saw q time when blood would
flow,
And anarchy be rife;
But that was when his funds were
low.
To get a wealthy wife.
He used to say the millionaires
Were blinded by their greed;
He thought the world and its az
fairs
Were managed wrong, indeed.
He saw the time when class and
Would wage q bloody strife.
When chaos would prevail Alas!
Since then a change has come to
pass,
He has a wealthy wife.
He cannot understand today &.
Why those who toll complain;
The ills he feared are cleared away,
No signs of strife remain.
Content to let things drift along,
He lives an easy life,
Forgetting, II sometimes the strong
Expresses the weak. that 1t is
wrong:

proved. AT first he was worried over
the lack of attention given in the

results. He found nothing seriously
wrong, and he, particularly noted the
progress that has been made in the
New Garden territory. The township
trustee has there provided individual
