THE GOSSIP CREW

They rattle on with much 10 say

But help TO spread from door 70 door.
The gossips whisper at their tea

Then when the juicy bit Is told
And on their eager tongues Is rolled,
They sample IL and ind Il good
And tell IL 10 the neighborhood.
Thus harmless things are magnihed.
Though not a gossip thinks she he'd
And often lives are ruined. too.

THE NATIVITY.
Ono Of Three Poems From the "Echoes
of Bethlehem

of Bethlehem.
The Irish Standard this week pre-
sents it's readers with THE Nativity"
the second and shortest Of the three
beautiful poems that make up Echoes
of Bethlehem" by A. Washington
ing "The Annunciation" and The
Flight into Egypt"
These three poems on heavy, high
quality, deckle edge paper, handsome
ly bound in blues, with artistic cover
design by Adrian Louis Brewer, and
frontispiece by Edward Vincent Brew
er, make up a book to treasure. The
frontispiece shows the family on the
night before Christmas, assembling
around the hearthstone of the home,
the children expectant and eager for
the telling of the wonderful story
Although Mr.. Morse is not a Catho-
lie, the note of the reverence is strong
and true throughout 1t is particular
ly gratifying to see in The Annunci
atom a fine appreciation of our Bless
ed Mothers part in the Divine plan of
redemption, too, often, among our sep
arated brethren, minimized or lost
sight of altogether !
By the wisdom of the Church Catho-
lies are from earliest childhood made
familiar with the great Christmas sto-
ry in all it's details, which will height
en- for them the pleasure to be had in
reading Echoes of Bethlehem" since
1t adheres as strictly as the demands
of verse permit, to the gospel narra-
tive, which is, of course, the basis of
all the Church says and does on the
subject The basis of dogma, devotions
and ceremony.
Mr.. Morse has long been resident
among us, and the illustration is don.
by gifted sons of Mr.. and Mrs, Nicho-
las Brewer, whose home is in st, Paul,
just across the Father of Waters. Mr.
Brewer himself being a well known ar
tist.
These facts add local interest to
book which on it's merits, deserves
a place in every home wherein the
Babe of Bethlehem is revered.

THE NATIVITY.

THE NATIVITY.
The orb Of day has passed from view
Beyond the western hills;
The shepherds call their bleating f1ocks
To rest, as nature Wills.
The day is done; the night Is come;
The campfire, burning low,
Betokens quietude and peace
Within Its circling glow.
The evening air is crisp and clear;
The sparkling stars above
Down on the sleeping shepherds there
Shed forth their light of love.
No sound disturbs the deep repose,
While DER the camp and sheep
One trusted herdsman. at the gate,
Doth faithful vigil keep.
The midnight hour now draweth nigh;
The moon hath ceased to shine;
The tWinkling stars are lost to view,
Outshone by power divine:
While slowly DER the field there falls
A soft. celestial sheen,
The Waterman looks toward the sky,
Where wondrous light is seen.
It's dazzling brightness blinds his eye
He looks. and looks again;
No man had seen the like before.
None such since seen by men.

HOW ONE COLLEGE HAS HELPED
NEGROES.

In certain county in Mississippi,
says a writer in the Southern Work.
man, a college for white boys has in
spired and positively helped the Ne
groes of the county. "A spirit of
sympathy and good will has shown
itslf in conduct. The college en-
plays a number Of Negroes to work
on the college farm. Working as
they must under the direction OF a
trained agriculturist, these men learn,
through doing, many vital principles
OF effective farming. They eventual
ly start up farms OF their own and
thus carry with them the experience
gained under trained oversight.
Their success in the community
where they live becomes an object
lesson to the neighbors around.
Again, the college experiments in
taxing the productive capacity under
certain conditions of an acre Of cot
ton or corn in full view Of the peds-
TRANS 10 ana from Town. IhlS eX-
pertinent is watched with the keenest
interest by those who are aware OF
what Is being done, and this has
proven to be very effective kind OF
object lesson. The college further
sends out men to hold farmers in
stitutes for Negroes in various parts
Of the county. Such questions as
deep blowing, crop rotation, green
manuring, diversity of crops, stock
raising with reference to the breed
ing and care Of stock, have been
presented at different times. These
institutes furnish experiences to the
illiterate Negroes for the intelligent
observation Of work done on the col
lege farm"
