MOTHER PUNcTuRE
some time I shall fold my
hands

some time l shall fold my
hands
From their life work; my soul shall
burst its prison bands;
Ny feet shall stand by Jordan, shall
catch the gleam.
I shall go hand in hand with Jesus
throught the tide,
And in the home prepared for me
upon the other side,
Never grow tired.
After long and useful life she died
as she had lived-honored, trusted
and loved. She reared her own mon
ument while she lived, in the hearts
of all who knew her. Her life was
complete, if work all done and well
done constitutes completion. Her
Christian life was beautiful from its
beginning to it's close, and through all
the vicissitudes and sorrows that she
met in the way, her faith in God
never faltered.

MONDAY Club Talks
Boulevard to Lake

The time Of the MONDAY Club atl
the Lincoln Monday was almost en-
tirely taken up with a discussion of
the good roads" proposition between
here and Lake Kampeska. Chairman
Southwick of the road to the lake
committee" reported it to be the
opinion of the committee that the
most feasible route for boulevard
to the lake would be to cross the In
diana avenue bridge, thence northwest
to the Thomas grove, thence west to
the quarter line, thence north to the
section line, and then west to the
lake. He thought that one rod on
either side of the present road could
be secured from the present owners
at little or no expense, making a nine
ty-nine foot boulevard all the way to
the lake. In this way the city would
have a right of way all the way TO
the lake to offer to any company which
would undertake to construct an elec-
trio line. This route has several ad-
vantages, the committee thought, over
any other existing road, for an cleo
tric road. The principal one is that
practically level grade could be main
tanned all the way, with very little cut
ting or filling. Another is that gravel
for surfacing could be secured prac-
tically every foot of the way, few
feet from the surface. This would
make the surfacing of the boulevard
very inexpensive, comparatively. In
the judgment of the committee, this
would make an ideal proposition for
an electric line. The electric line
could be run in the center Of the
ninety-nine foot boulevard, and a wa
gon road on one side and automobile
! road on the other.
The committee was continued with
instructions to work out the PROPOSE.
tion along the lines suggested.
