ring Tyre pours forth his sweet love-
laden message, revealing to us the Won
derful beauty and bloom of the world
And this it will continue to spread
from generation to generation, because
he was baptized of the spirit as every

spoke from his own heart to the heart

discerned its kind and because of that
Robert Burns lives and tonight all over
the world people meet to honor the inn
mortal memory OF the beloved poet of
human sympathy.
Let us consider briefly few of the
moods of him we desire to honor.
Did you ever observe that under
some circumstances Burns felt as IL
nature was an oppressor? That she
laughed merrily while he wept bitterly.
Just listen and exlain what he means
by this address:
"Ye bank and braes o'Bonnle Doom
How can ye bloom sac fresh and fair?
How can ye chant ye little birds
And l sac weary full o. care2

cause her mood Is at extreme variance
with his own thoughts? Again listen to
how Sweet Alton is being wooed and

gurglings and flow gently - for
my soul is burned with a great
sorrow-I desire absolute stiffness be-
cause my Mary is asleep.
This, indeed, is an appeal of the most
plaintive and heartbreaking kind-an ap-
peal that never misses the mark because
1t is so intensely human, and we are
beautiful Mary and his Sweet Alton,
but also to take them all into our hearts
forever and ever.
To Mountain Daisy
did you ever read his address to a
Mountain Daisy? 1t begins thus:
Wee, modest crimson-t tipped flower
Thou's met me in an evil hour
For | maun crush among the stour
Thy slender stem;
To spare thee now Is past my power,
Thou bonnie gem
This poem Is in itself a bonnie gem, 1t
| is a heartfelt lament for the daisy, which
| he looked upon as living thing. Why
| does he pour out his grief for the death
| of such seemingly Insignificant wild
| flower? The poem itself gives the an
swer. 1t is because he likens the daisy
to himself, crushed by the ploughshare
| of cold and selfish materialism There
| is not a single chord in the human heart
| but Robert Burns touches as If by magic

Although a fair audience heard the con-
cert given by the r. G. |. male chorus
at the Ensley High school auditorium
meritorious enough to have been greeted
with a packed house.
The choral numbers were magnfcently
rendered and Director Stephen Alsopp
and his chorus were repeatedly encored.
De Rifles great masterpiece. the descrip-
tive chorus, Martyrs of the Arena a
most difficult number, could not have
been more effectively handled.
No amateur concert from a musical
standpoint has ever been more successful
than that of last night The solo mum
bers by Miss Basenburg and Miss Berti
Hutchings were most ingeniously selected
so as to serve as beautiful contrast
to the numbers by the male chorus, Both
the young ladies were warmly encored
The Thomas brothers, Arthur, Idris and

and trio numbers.

DESIGN OF CATHEDRAL
LEFT TO CHOICE: Of

Fail to A9re. OH Exterior Model

Differences OF opinion have arisen
among the trustees of the Cathedral OF
st. John the Divine over the new de.
sisn for the Cathedral exterior Find
Ing themselves unable TO agree. they
have voted to call in the judgment of
the public.
Duplicate designs are at once to be
placed on exhibition in the new synod
Hall OF the Cathedral grounds, and at
the Architectural League Building In
Fifty-seventh street near Broadway.
Some favor the old design, saying II Is
dlgnifed. while the new one Is the op-
posite. Bishop Greer likes the new
design. lie said:
1T is inspirational. as the old was
not"
The Rev. Or. Henry Lubbock said:
The great tower OF the old design
was impressive. II Is lost In the many
spires and towers of the new"
1t will be recalled that the original
design. adopted some years ago, was
made by Helms & La Fargo, and select.
cd after sharp competition from four
other designs.
Recently. Mr.. Helms tho surviving z
architect Of the firm. was suppianted
by Ralph A. Cram OF Cram, Goodhu,

the ownership. II was given by the

MEN OF HARDIN
COUNTY ACTIVE
THE PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO
DO THEIR PART TO GET A
RAILROAD.

SAVANNAH, Tenn, April 49,
There was he'd in the court house
Tuesday evening railroad mass
meeting Much enthusiasm was
shown and several speeches made in
behalf of the proposed railroad.
Those making speeches were Judge
Barham, ]. E. DeFord, E. w. Ross, d.
w. Broyles and A. M. Patterson. A
temporary organization was effected
and D. A. WEIGH, Sr.. was chairman
and P NJ. HARRIET secretary A com
mittee was selected by districts as a
permanent organization, of which Z.
]. WEIGH is chairman and A. NJ. Pat
terson secretary.
1t seems from the sentiment of the
people present, about 1900, that Har-
did is ready for the railroad and TO
vote its pro rata share of the bonds
which would be at least 100000, and
would perhaps vote more if the cir
cumstances demanded it.

ARE VICTIMS OF
FLOOD AND FIRE
THE MEMBERS OF A LAUNCH
PARTY TAKE REFUGE IN
TREES.

HICKMAN, KY, April 21.-About
the narrowest escape that has been
experienced during this flood in this
vicinity was that of a party on a
launch that burned at Medley, Mo-,
ten miles above Hickman. Lee Sal
mon and A. N. Wallace of near this
city, who have been operating the
launch, were bringing negro man,
a negro women and two little chill
dren from Medley to Hickman. and
when just in front of where the
break occurred in the Medley levee
something got wrong with the rudder
of the boat, and the current at that
point carried the boat through the
break from the river and on back in
to the woods. The boat ran into .
tree so hard that the gasoline supply
pipe and one of the electric wires
were Jared loose, and by the rocking
of the boat the wire came in contact
with the carbureter, making spark,
which ignited the leaking gasoline
and in a few minutes the boat was
"a mass of flames.
The white men made desperate
attempt to extinguish the flames, but
soon saw it was impossible. Ia the
mean time the boat had been tied to
a small tree. The negro man made
his escape hurriedly and got up into
a tree, when the white men told the
negro woman and children to make a
dash back through the flames to the
rear of the boat and get in trees, and
when they had finally gotten in trees
Salmon cut the boat loose and it
foated away mass Of flames.

CHANCE FOR SCHOOL
BOY OR GIRL TO GET
MEDAL FOR AN ESSAY
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
AT WASHINGTON OFFERS
PRIZE FOR ROAD LETTER.
MUST NOT EXCEED 800 WORDS
Composition Must Be Based on
knowledgs Received From Books,
From Personal Observation or 9th
er Sources-No Quotations.

A gold medal to the school boy or
girl between the ages of 10 and is
who writes the best composition, not
to exceed 800 words, on the repair
and maintenance of earth roads, is to
be awarded by Logan Waller Page,
director Office public roads, United
States department of agriculture. at
Washington, D. G.. All compositions
must be submitted to Mr.. Page be-
fore May Is, 1913, and the medals
will be awarded as soon thereafter
as the compositions can be graded
The composition may be based on
knowledge gained from books or 9TH
er sources, but no quotations should
be made
After many years experience in
dealing with the public road situation
of the country, it is Mr.. Pages belief
that ignorance on the subject of re-
pair and maintenance of roads is as
much the cause of their bad condi-
ton as any other one factor. It is
expected that the competition will
bring about better understanding
|of the subject of repair and mainte-
nance in the rural districts.
Many children living in the rural
districts have experienced the dis
advantages of roads made impassa-
BILE through lack of proper mantle
nance and it is expected that their
interest in the competition will slim
ulate greater interest among the par
ents. Bad roads have prevented
many children from obtaining crop
er education and have even prevent
ed doctors from reaching the side of
rural patients in time to save their
lives.
Any child between the ages men
toned, attending a country school,
may compete. Only one side of the
paper must be written on; each page
should be numbered; the name, age
land address of the writer, and the
name and location of the school
which he or she is attending must
be plainly written at the top of the
first page. The announcements OF
the competition has been sent t. SUI
perintendents of schools in the rural
districts. No further information
can be obtained from the Office OF
public roads. This announcement
should be plain to every one, aud all
children will thus start of basis of
equality. #

AUDITING PROPERTY
CLAUSE INCLUDED IN
new CHARTER CHANGE
NO QUESTION ABOUT THE REG
ulARiTY OF ITS PASSAGE
BY LEGISLATURE.
WILL use OIL ON STREETS
Other Street Material May be Used
and Some Paving May Be Done on
Seventh and Main Streets by Co
Operation.

Chairman Akin, of the street COM
mittee, is making preparations for
the ase of oil on the streets again
this summer, in view of the satisfac-
tory results of last year.
The changes asked for in the char
ter at the, hands of the present legis-
lature contains an abutting property
clause, and this act was passed in
proper form before a quorum was
broken, and there is no question
about it's regularity. This clause
places one-third of the street main
tainance on the property owners on
each side of the street, and the other
one-third on the city, making the
whole The provisions of the eener-
al abutting property act, which has
cloud over its regularity by having
been passed with a questionable quo
rum, should not be confused with the
charter clause
In using the oil on the streets Of
the city during the summer it will
be the disposition of the manage
ment of the street department to 60
where there is the most cooperation
and the most travel. While the
board has the right to direct and en-
force the expenses from the proper
ty owners, it is stated that this will
mot be done. There is no desire to
put these improvements where the
citizens do not cheerfully cooperate,
and it will not be done unless abso-
htely necessary.
In connection with the oil there
may be also used some other street
preserving methods, and it is not al
together a matter of beyond proba-
bility that Seventh street to High
from the Square, and Main street to
Eighth and maybe Ninth from the
Square, will be paved This i'm
proyement will also depend largely
on the encouragement and co-opera-
ton Of the property owners.
This work is now under consider
alton and will be taken up as soon
as it is thought that the weather has
sufficiently setted for the summer,
which will not be long of.
