MARCH OF THE MOTHERS.

Do you hear the fall Of their gentle
feet
~ - they gather from far and wide
Fl village and city and country
seat.
Out OF homes they have glorified!
Oh. some are aged and some are
young.
And some are In middle years:
They each have listened when Joy
has sung.
And many have tasted tears.
For living is darkness as we'll as
light.
And no one can journey far
Ger the way that weadeth from
night to night.
From morning to evening star.
But sooner or later the weary heart
Must learn where the shadows lie.
Although from its sadness hope will
sing,
And beckon beyond the sky
o. listen and welcome. for 10. they
rise.
These mothers from all our land.
To look upon us with happy eyes
Or touch US with tender hand.
But some lie sleepins-have gone to
rest
In the silent acres of God.
We will gather the blossoms they
loved the best
And sprinkle the shielding sod.
God bless them and keep them
asleep or awake
Our mothers so tried. so true.
And We. their children. for their fine
sake
VIII conquer the world for you.

THIS IS APRIL FIRST
 THE DAY OF ALL FOOLS
Custom Of Playing Practical Jokes Is Out of Vogue, But Small Boy
 Recognizes No Reform.
April Fool

AltIll ttoL
 This is il. and although the custom If playing practical jokes upon an nsuspectinG public or friends has gone more or less out of vogue along with the comic valentine. all fools day is still a live issue with many small boy who will do his best to lead the unwary into humuiiating traps by r-ason of the license which ;he date is suv0oSed to confer.
 Not SD very long ago it was con sidered the height Of cleverness 10 serve candy loaded with red pepper, and other burning ingredients, or send the victim on long trips of the goose chase variety, or even to cause telegrams to be delivered an- nouncing the death of a friend or relative This idea or humor has fortunately been eliminated from the day which still retains possibilities enough to cause the innocent one to be on guard so long as it lasts.
 A search for something upon the origination of the curious custom de- veloped the fact that three standard reference works ignore the important day altogether while the louIth IlS- misses il in the following enigmatic fashion leaving the researcher as much in the dark as he was before:
 All fools day The first of April; so called from the custom of mak- ing fools Of as many as possible on that day"
