My Enemy.
/ have an enemy. And shall he be
A useless thorn to vex and worry
me?
A dominant discord In life's perfect
strain
Marring my dreams, turning my
Joy to pain,
Molding my life to his malicious
whims?
Shall he be lord of me, or of him?
A bitter stream may turn the mill
wheel round,
A thorny tree may burn to heat
and light,
And out of shameful wrong may
spring
The flower Of perfect right
So from my enemy I may demand
A priceless tribute of perpetual
good;
And lead him captive at my chariot
wheels
In royal mood.
Because my enemy hath cunning ears
That listen hourly for my idle
speech,
My words shall flow in wise and
measured way
Beyond his carping reach
Because my enemy has eyes that
watch
With sleepless malice while I
come and go,
My days shall own no act would
not wish
The world to know.
Because my enemy doth hourly WELD
Some subtle snare to trip me every
day
My feet shall never for one moment
leave
The straight and narrow way.
Because my enemy doth hate me sore
fix my gaze beyond him and above
And lift as shield to all his fiery darts
A heart of love.
And of my enemy thus shall make
A beacon light to light me to my
goal,
A faithful guardian of my house of
life,
A spur and whip to urge my lag
gard soul;
And though our strife may never
have an end
I yet might call this enemy my

Tit meeting was called to order
by Mr.. Rush, the president being alb

members. Then the minutes of the
last meeting were read.
| The first question on the program
was, do you Think Seed Corn Rails
e. in Central Wisconsin Would Ma
tire here?"
| 1t was thought to do all right hero
that the difference in climate wo lid
help to mature it. Mr.. Hammond had
never had good luck in sending away
Tor seed corn. That some kilds il
would take ninety days after he enrg
had set before it would mature and
thought If We could have farmers
exchange 1t would be all right.
do the Women in This Club Wan.
to Vote at all Elections, or on Cues
items of Taxation?"
Mrs. Hammond said If I vote Mt all
would want to vote on everything,
want equal suffrage. Others -houg,lt
they We're interested at home and
would not care to vote, and some
would like to vote to see if that would
have an effect on local option. Mrs.
Giles thought we would not be any
better off as there are just as many
to vote on the wrong side.
Are all Politicians Honest, Good
Mcn?"
1t was thought not and that there
are dishonest people everywhere
and that If the people would stand by
the politicians they would be more
honest. That not only the politicians
get dishonest but the ministers as
we'll as others get dishonest.
Mrs. Hammond read Uncle Zee
be's Cemetery"
The hostess announced that dinner
was ready and all adjourned to par
take OF the good things prepared by
the hostess. After the social hour
the club was called to order and all
joined in singing favorite songs.
"Does. 1t pay to buy Cream Sepa-
rator for Four or Five Cows?"
Mrs. Post thought it pays all right
IL there were only three cows.
State how you can Best Apply
Phosphate to Corn and Does it Ben
eft the Succeeding Crop?"
1t was thought by some of the
farmers the best way was to SOW
broadcast and also thinks it benefits
the next crop.
A select reading by Mrs. G.. Potter
was much enjoyed, also a recitation
by Russell Potter.
(Which in Your Opinion is the
Best way to Prepare Seed bed and
Seed Alfalfa?"
Get the seed bed ready in the fall,
seed in March and NOW twice a year.
NOW first time, let lay on the ground
and after it gets well started, can
NOW twice a year. 1t does well on
sandy soil. 1t is good to raise in an
orchard for fattening hogs.
We now listened to a talk from

subject, Farmers Clubs
