THE RED EAR.

Crow

Croy)
Romance is gone from the husk-
ing bee since the days when the
laughter rang out free and the neigh
bors came in merry crowd and the
fun was fast and the voices lound as
we ripped each husk from its yellow
ear in the golden days OF yesteryear.
How the young eyes glowed and the
young hearts leapt in the big old
barn where the corn was kept, how
the evening flew and the labor sped
as we watched for an ear "all red. g"
and how sweet the lips of the girl
we kissed when a red ear cleaned
in our lucky fist.
oh. the husking bee was a task OF
joy. a festal frolic for girl and boy.
a job well done in a way Of mirth and
a sacred rite to the good brown earth.
BY flying fingers the task was done
and the job was only an evenings
fun.
But where's the frolic a. fun to-
day? All dead and done =, r and
passed away. The job is done by a
cold machine that husks the ears
adm 1t husks 'em clean-but a soulless
pieces Of wood and steel that cannot
chuckle or laugh or feel.
The red ears come and the red
ears go, but the patent husker"
doesn't know, and who would think,
In hundred years. of kissing a thing
all belts mad gears? It's a dull,
bleak world, for man see romance is
gone from the husking bee

practically completed. The imperial

the first and second tlOOrs of the Ho-

England.
Tomorrow's royal wedding will be a
great event in more than one respect.
The loyal Germans are delighted with
the prospective union. The princess
has always been extremely popular
and as it is well understood that hcr
marriage to Prince Ernest is genu-
inc love match and not a union plan
ned and arranged for state reasons,
the whole country rejoices over the
event The fact that the marriage
has also great historical Importance,
in that II will end the tifty.year feud
between the houses of Hohenzollern'
and Cumberland, is an additional rca-
son for general rejoicing.
