THIS is LIFE.

To give the day such a service that
may go to my home weary and con-
tent and undishonored"; To mirele my
soul with the joy of my loved ones i'm
song, story, reminiscence, or the sa-
cred silence of the open page.
To laugh and romp with the irno-
cent babe; to drink i'm the sweet mu-
sic of his laughter-and then TO hear
his "Now / Lay Me-" and stand by
while the mother tucks him in, and
the baby lids are kissed down for the
night.
To pay homage to the mother OF my
babe i'm words of cheer and sympathy;
and then, as the hour of bed time APP
proaches, to mingle our common soul
with the soul of some great man or
woman, through reading their written
words in book or pamphlet.
Then, with this fragrant memory of
another 10 close off the thoughts of
myself and my work-with one last
glance at the waxen face of the sleep
ing babe; the wife's good night kiss,
and then to my rest.
To rise early. To exercise battle
md shave. To breakfast frugally--
and then out into Gods good world OF
sunshine, and the song of birds. Then
IN to the hum of traffic where lies my
work-the altar on which burns the
incense of my life.
To serve: To give something OF
10
whole to extract Peace, Love. Wisdom
and Sweet Content-this is life

promptu address that was indicative
of the good times that are ahead of
the city in the next few years, In the
way of boosting and It's development
and growth. President Hardy was also
guest at the dinner.
Following the dinner the meeting
proper was held when the paper of
w. A. Bailey Of the twin cities on
Retail Advertising was read. 1t was
to be regretted that Mr.. Bailey himself
was not able to be present, but his
paper was much enjoyed.
After the main feature of the even
ing, the usual criticism of newspaper
ads followed. Last nights criticism
concerned the advertisement of the
department store. Then followed a
discussion on fake and graft adver-
tisements, which were frequently In
troduced into cities OF this size. The
members of the club decided to place
the ban on such advertisers and TO
warn the general public and the bust
ness men about them in case of future
attempts of such men to practice their
games here.
During the business session OF the
club which came at the close of the
meeting, Sidney t. Adams resigned
from the vice presidency Of the club
on account of his membership on
the executive committee of the COM
mercial club with that affiliated body.
J. A. Pierce was chosen to fill his
place until the December election of
the club and Frank Scott was elected
to fill Mr.. Pierce's place as treasurer
during the unexpired term.

$4,000 NAMES
ON PENSION ROLL
BUT THERE WERE NEVER so

DEPARTMENT - CANNOT BE
SAID PUBLIC IS MIGRATE
Full.

Washington Herald Although there
are stin $4,000 names on the pension
roll the announcement IL made that
this Is the smallest number since 1892.
The net decrease In the number Of
pensioners last year was $4,000 This
indicates that the time lis at last APP

high tide OF pension disbursements Is
at hand unless. indeed, congress finds
some way In which to appropriate
more money to present beneficiaries
or enacts laws which will add many
who do not now receive any support
from the government
When 1t is known that the United
States has paid out considerably over
$4,000, 100000 In pensions it cannot
be said that this republic, at least, Id
ungrateful, There are still nearly
100000 soldiers and sailors upon the
rolls, to say nothing Of widows, de-
pendents, army nurses and others.
Every effort is being made, accord
Ing to the assurance of Commissioner
Davenport. to purge the rolls of
fraud. II is stated, for instance, that
or 47,1S1 pensioners seen and ques-
toned, only 26 cases of improper
pensioning were revealed. This is
certainly very small proportion,
and II the same ratio obtains through
out the entire list. 1t cannot truth
fully be said that the pension list is
honeycombed with fraud.
No one who remembers the great
service rendered to the union by the
men who fought from 1851 to 1868
or who gave their lives for their
country during that period, begrudges
them or their families the provision
which the government has made for
them. All that is asked is that PEN
sion legislation shall not be passed
for political purposes and that those
who receive government aid shall be
honestly entitled to consideration.
