The Postman
BY walt Mason

I wonder if the pOstman knows how
he distributes joys and woes with every
trip he makes? He plods along from
door to door, makes one heart glad, an
other sore, and ties of friendship break.
He brings a grist of urgent duns to
those distressed and sad-eyed ones
whose tailors business mean; he trudges
to the poets home and brings him a
rejected pOme from naughty magazine.
Oh, all there is of grief and wrath he
scatters as he takes his path along the
village street; and heartaches, troubles
and despair, and things that change to
white the hair, attend his toiling feet.
And all there is of hope and bliss, the
plighted vow, the written kiss, he carries
as he wends; the letter from a roaming
boy, that fills a mothers heart with Joy,
the greetings from old friends. The
rapture of the glowing bride, the requiem
of those who died, he carries in his pack;
the whole long tale of human things to
every village door he brings as he pur.
sues his track. I wonder if the pOstman
dreams of ali the futile hopes and
schemes he carries as he walks? Of all
the yearnings and the fears, of all the
torture and the tears, the solaces and
shocks

By GEORGE FITCH,
Author of 4At Good Old SiwaBh.7

THIS is the birthday of William
the Silent, a man who liberated
his country before he was . years
old without the aid Of OratOry or press
agents.
William the Silent was a Dutchman
who was born in Nassau IN 1858. He
was born a prince, which was hard luck
in those days, for the poor Dutch boys
could grow up in peace, accommodating
gold and trousers, while the princes had
to get out at an early age and hustle to
hold their jobs.
William was a prince, but he didn't
have any time to waste with the other
boys. When he was Is the king Of
Spain decided to exterminate all the
Protestants in Holland, and young
William had to buckle on his armOr and
save his province.
This was considerable Of a task for
boy of that size, but soon William got

work in Nassau that he had to under
take the job of saving all Holland and

with gridirons, thumbscrews and hot
lead, he doubtless wondered why the
prince Job had been wished on him. But
he never faltered OF tried to pass it on
to a personal enemy.
When William was p years old the
Spaniards got so pestiferous that he cut
al the dikes in Holland and flooded the
country. The Dutch, having webbed feet,
did not mind this in the least, but the
Spanish were drowned IN great numbers
and gave up William as a bad Job. He
then united his country, established
government and at the age of 81 was
preparing to sit down and smoke his
first peaceful pipe when he was assassin
ated under the auspices of the king of
Spain, assassination being as popular
feature of craftsmanship in those days
as gavel rule is today.
William was nicxnamed @The Silent

he managed to make himself understood
