Forgotten servants-The River James

The river side the city lay
And on It's BOSOM carried;
The flour and meat. the corn and hay
While on It's way It hurried.
It's waters flowing DER the rocks.
Went on it's way a singing.
And turned the wheels Of Industry,
While cargos 1t kept bringing.
Its onward flow taught all TO 60
Through sunshine and through night
1t drove the wheels Of dynamos
To furnish homes with light
II washed the banks and wet the flowers,
That grew along its shores
While on It's waves the boys bathed,
The fishes played; the stream kept up It's sing
ing.
All see the steamers on its face;
All eat It's FISH and use its grace
All Use the lights and smell the flowers
But notice not its busy hours.
NV friend like this forgotten stream
You may be serving all day long,
Y4oeing. writing sewing on--food to others bring

Don't lose your heart quit your song out

Perhaps the most important
feature in the $4,000 prize offer
of the Texas Industrial Congress
contest this year is that provid-
ing for competition by schools
in the four crop model farm class.
The Congress desires to have as
many of the schools as we'll en-
ter this class and teachers and
trustees everywhere are urged
to provide a suitable tract Of land
to cultivated by the pupils of the
school in corn, cotton, cOwpeas
and either kaffir corn or milo
maze.
This is a practical course in
in agriculture that every school
is advised to try. The cultiva-
ton of the model farm is to be
directed by the teacher aud teus-
tees, the pupils Of the school do,
ing the work. Any of the cash
prizes that might be awarded to
SCnOOl ana the proceeds OF the
crop could be used for a school
library or otherwise as the school
officials and the pupils might
decide.
Any land owner who permits
the use of four acres of ground
for this demonstration farm will
be amply repaid in the added
fertility Of his land that will re.
suit from blowing under the
vines on the acre planted in COW
peas.
The schools everywhere should
take advantage of this opportuni-
ty. Full PARTICULARS may be had
by writing to the Congress a,
