The Stream That Is Never Crossed.
There's many sorrow know,

There's many a sorrow l know,
AS we tread the path of life;
There's many grief and lasting woe,
And the way is toll and strife.
But the hardest load we have to bear
Is the labor and strength that's
In building the bridge with toilsome
care
Ger the stream that is never
crossed
We have fretting and worry from
morn till night
And anguish weighs on the heart;
The thorny way seems hard to right,
And life is bitter part
But there is burden greater vet,
Much peace of the soul it has cost,
1t is building a bridge with toll and
sweat
Ger the stream that is never
crossed.
There's looking for crossings all the
day
And searching along the shore
For a bridge or a ford along the way
We shall never travel DER.
There's signing for useless toys in
vain,
And dreaming of chances lost:
But it's hardest to bridge with might
AID main,
The stream that is never crossed.
Then gather the roses along the way;
And treasure the fragrance rare:
Rejoice in the bright and joyous day.
Refusing to borrow care.
For sorrow and pain will surely come,
And your soul be tried and tossed:
But don't be bridging to reach your
home
Der the stream that is never
crossed.

St. Patrick a Protestant.

The Reverend Niles in Baltimore
this year claimed st. Patrick for tho
Presbyterians. So the following poem
by a Poor Puzzled Irishman in the
Dublin Irish Catholic is most timely:
The Baptists claim st. Patrick now,
The Methodists assert he's theirs,
The Congregationalists avow
His creed with theirs exactly
squares.
The High Church wants him for its
own,
The Low Church. too. our saint
would win,
But what want to know is this:
Where do we Catholics come in?
For years he has been ours alone
For Patrick and his honored name
We've faced the tyrant on the throne
We've borne the burden and the
blame
But now that he's become the rage
With folks Of every creed and kin,
cannot keep from wond'ring where
Do we poor Catholics come in?
All, sweet st. Patrick saint of ours!
Full we'll you know your own, ween!
We did not wait for sunny hours
To wear your own beloved green.
This sudden admiration-sure
Twill die away like every din,
But Irish love will still endure
That's where we Catholics come in!
In April.
All in the April evening
April airs were abroad;
The sheep with their little lambs
Passed by me on the road.
The sheep with their little lambs
Passed by me on the road;
All in an April evening
thought on the Lamb Of God.
The lambs were weary, and crying
With weak human cry;
thought on the Lamb Of God
Going meekly to die.
Up in the blue, blue mountains
Dewy pastures are sweet;
Rest for the little bodies,
Rest for the little feet
But for the Lamb Of God
Up on the hill top green,
Only a cross Of shame
Two stark crosses between.
All in the April evening
April airs were abroad,
/ saw the sheep with their lambs
And thought on the Lamb Of God.

William ]. Bryan on Education.

What would we do if we should
see a father deliberately cut off one
of his boys arms?" asked William
j. Bryan in a speech in Raleigh last
week. And yet, the great Nebras-
kan rightly went on to say, in this
day, when no illiterate man can
successfully compete with an edu-
Gated one in anything, a father who
cuts off one Of his bow S arms, send
ing him into life with only one arm
instead of two, would be doing his
his child no more serious an INJURY
than the father who deliberately
neglects togive his boy an educa-
ton. The smile is a good one in
deed, and one that we wish to en-
phasize in connection with our cam
paign for "A Six-Months' School
Term for Every Country Boy and
Girl A mans physical strength
is not even half his strength in the
world today; an education counts
for more than half in every line Of
work-in farming andin everything
else. In the fierce industrial strug-
gle Of today, q ssiong weli-trained
body may be compared to ones left
hand, but a strong, well-trained
mind isone's right hand. In cutting
off your boys chance for an educa-
ton, therefore, it is almost asif you
were cutting off his right hand.
It's a mighty poor sort of law
and civilization, Mr.. Bryan con-
cluded, that will go out after a man
and compel him to pay back 50 he
borrowed, but viii let him send his
own flesh and blood out into life
hopelessly handicapped for want Of
schooling they might have had. !"
And in our opinion MIR. Bryan was
right. Progressive Farmer.

Keep The Corn Club Growing,

Probably little sluggishness has
crept into the Lee County Boys Corn
Club members. Probably the year
with them, as the first year Of the
organization, has not been as good
as the members hoped it would be.
They should remember, however,
that it was very good for start
There is no reason why the Lee
County Boys Corn Club should not
as good as any in the state in COM
parison with the size 81 the county.
Every citizen Of the county should
encourage this good work and aid
in every way possible to make it
permanent.
Nothing means more to the agri-
cultural interests Of the county than
to interest the boys who are to be
the farmers Of the future in the work
that is being done everywhere over
the state now in'the way Of raising
corn. Lee county must not lag be-
hind in its duty to its young farmers,
who are the very backbone of its
citizenry.
If vital and lasting interest can
once be aroused in the Corn Club,
it will prove a factor Of the greatest
advantage in advancing interests
Of the county. Mr.. G. V. Cunning
ham, who is organizer for the boys
corn clubs for this district, is anx-
ious to aid in every way possible to
gain larger enrolment still for the
club this year and to make it still
more helpful to the county.
In helping farmers to get rid Of
the one-crop idea that has ham,
pered them 50 long nothing can be
made of more use than the boys
corn clubs. They have a vital part
in the life Of the farmers Of the
county. And the girls canning
clubs, let one Of them be organized,
too. These clubs will do a great
part toward reducing the high cost
of living and Of stimulating a more
vital interest among young people
to stay on the farm.
