Persevere.

Long, long some souls have stayed
away
And dwelt in sin afar,
From all the teachings which proclaim
Where joy and glory are.
The path was dark, the way was steep
Wherein their footsteps strayed,
Their hearts were weakened meath
the strain
While they so long delayed.
l saw some go all radiant
With glad and beaming eyes:
How long they had stranger been
No one could realize.
Fer since their childhood they had
roamed,
Indifferent to all
The teachings of their early youth,
Nor rose from any fall.
"O'er three score years." one sadly
said,
my habits seemed so chained
That I could scarce return tonight
To grace SO long disdained.
But once within those sacred walls
My heart-beats we're so wild,
That l leapt DER the years of sin
And stood once more a child,
I bent my head upon my hands;
I knelt contritely there,
But so long had been estranged
l could not frame a prayer.
AT last" he said, "the tears came
forth
While there on Bonded knee.
I suppliantly prayed to God,
Have pity Thou on me-
Then came a little prayer l learned
From mother long ago,
The peace that gently fell on me
None but the erring know;
1t soon recalled the dying prayer,
Mixed with parting sigh,
Was that her wandering boy might
Ere he was called to de-
O, heed awakened conscience now,
Which tells when dangers near.
To use the grace which God bestows
And you shall persevere.
Its call re-echoes once again,
The ever-urgent plea,
That you may daily lift to God
A heart of constancy.
Yes, persevere, be brave, nor heed
Your comrades who may jeer:
Your courage yet may bring to them
The penitentital tear.
Then let your pole-star ever be
The Light that leads you on
Der storm-tossed waves. and starless
nights,
To everlasting dawn.
Where no more pillows shall arise
To thwart the drifting sail;
Where no more sorrow can exist,
Where grief cannot prevail;
Where Gods own face shall be the
source
OF unrestrained delight,
Where souls shall evermore remain
Clad in eternal light.

1t was Gladstone's performances in
the days of committee on the Bill that
stirred the wonder and admiration of
the House. If he had been fifty they
would have been astonishing; at
eighty-four they were indeed mar

argument, of high constitutional rea-
soning, of trenchant debating force.
No emergency arose for which he was
not ready, no demand that his versa
tility was not adequate to meet. His
energy never tagged. When the Bill

COUNCILS DELAY MAY LOSE
STREET EXTENSION WORK
FEARED CONTRACTORS WILL BE
AWAY BEFORE WORK BEGINS
Matter Had Been Left in the Hands of
John p. Hudson Chairman of Street
Committee But Nothing is Doing

Smyrna Town Council met in short
session last Friday evening with
president S. J. Reynolds, secretary
H. B. Grieves, S. A. Fortner and j.
N. Lloyd in attendance. Owing to
the absepce of Councilman Hudson
chairman of the street committee, no
report was received as what the
street committee intended to do in
the matter of extending Commerce
street out along by the Depot to Join
up with the new Smyrna-Clayton
stone road at town limits. At
meeting sometime ago it was tenta-
lively agreed to and left in the hands
of the street committee with power
to act, to make such road construction
as was necessary ito not only macadam
Commerce street up to town limits
but Mt. Vernon street as well, the
feeling of Council being that steps
should be taken at this time while
the contracting firm of Pugh & Hub
bard was laying the new stone road
for the county, so an exchange could
be made for use of the heavy steam
roller for the town sprinkler. So
far as is known Councilman Hudson,
chairman of the street committee
has done nothing. No stone for the
town has been ordered and no deal
has been made with the contracting
engineers for use of their steam
roller. AS the contractors expect,
weather permitting, to finish the
Smyrna-Clayton road this week, it is
feared, unless the street committee
acts soon, the contractors will be
away with their paraphernalia before
council can have the use of them.
Members of council gave more or less
discussion to the matter Friday night
but since Mr.. Hudson was not present
to consult with the extra street work
was held in allegiance until it was
learned what the street committee
had done. Outside of passing bills to
the amount of S650.OO no other
business was transacted.
