Night and day
To prevent the need of dying,
And they may
In some way
Find the secret they endeavor
TO uncover. SO that never

Will there come to man or woman
Ills that erstwhile have been human,
So that no one need be faring/
TO that shore
Where the sainted ones are wearing
Crowns that they have won by daring
TO be free
From the sins that are so biighting
And are still. alas, delighting
You and me,
They may find some way of making
Youth endure
And for ills that leave us aching
Learn the cure,
But be sure
That. however they endeavor,
They need never. never, never
Hope 10 find
Any way whereby vulture
May DC taught to strive for culture
And be kind
And though death may lose its terror,
You, my friend. will be in error
If you hope
There will ever come a season
When a man devoid OF reason
May be set among the scholars
Through the mere use of IA dollars
Worth of dope.

MAGAZINES Wanted.

Circle One of st. Marks church

cal work in collecting and sending
good magazines and other reading
matter to the Charity Hospital Tor
distribution in the wards as wanted.
When We think of the long weary
hours of convalescence away from
home and friends, in the ward OF the
hospital, we should try to relieve
that lineliness and WEAKNESS by
bringing something from the outside
to interest and brighten the tire
some monotony of the dragging
hours. Even if too weak to read, the
patient can find diversion in turning
the pages and looking at the pic
lures. The magazine hospital COM
mittee is Mrs. Deadly and Mrs. Pogue
who ask that the magazines be left
at Mrs. Deady's residence, No. 172s

Where have you been the long day

Little brothers of mine?
Soon the world shall belong to you,
Yours to mar or to build anew,
Have you been to learn what the
world shall do,
Little brothers going home.
We have been to learn through the
livelOng day
Where the great looms echo and
crash and sway,
The world has willed it and we obey,
Elder brother.
What did you learn till set of sun,
Little brother of mine?
Down where the great looms Wove
and spun,
You who are many where we are
one,
We whose day is so nearly done,
Little brothers, pacing home.
We have learned the things that the
mill folk said,
That man is cruel and God is dead
And how toNweave with an even
thread,
Elder brother.
What did you win with the things
they taught,
Little brothers of mine,
You whose sons shall have strength
you brought,
Fashion their lives of the faith you
brought,
Follow afar the ways you sought,
Little brothers toiling home?
Shattered body end stunted BRAIN
Hearts made hard with the need O
gain,
These we won and must give again
Elder brother.
How shall the world fare in you
hand,
Little brothers of mine?
When you shall stand where now w
stand,
Shall you lift a light in the darkeneC
land,
Or fire its ways with a burnin:
brand,
Little brothers stealing home?
What if the way the world shall
fare?
