Wealth.

I'd like to be rich-there is pleasure in
money,
It's good stuff to have and it's good
stuff to spend;
1t helps you to pay for your milk and
your honey
I'd like to be rich, but I'd never be
willing
To pay such price as some men do
for gold;
The cost is too high and the pace is too
killing,
And too many things must be barter
ed and sold.
I'd like to be rich-and 1 wonder who
wouldn't;
And yet if it cost me what some peo-
pie pay,
I'd try 70 be rich and I'd find that l
couldn't.
There is too much worth while that is
lost by the way
To sacrifice friends and ideals to render
My heart and my conscience, my soul
and my mind,
And sell all my dreams for a dollar
marked splendor
Would leave me too poor for the rich
es I'd find
I'd like to have wealth If made it by
toiling
Or keenness and cleverness canny-
but fair,
But never by cheating and spelling;
I'd like to be rich-but I'd rather be
square.

ments, and If exhaustive trials prove
the movies" to be satisfactory they
probably will replace the present Ber-
tillon finger print system Of identify
ing criminals
BY the system a criminal may be
identified by some popularity in his
actions. A notorious criminal will be
made to walk before the picture cam
era so that 81 good view Of him can be
had from all angles. Five feet of film
will be used for each subject.
After the film is developed it will be
placed in a motion picture machine in
the detectives roll room. and the as
sembled sleuths will see on the white
screen before them the man who 'act-
ed for the machine.
Criminal identification by means Of
motion pictures also is being consid-
cred by the New York police depart
ment. The suggestion Of such a meth
cd was made to Commissioner Waldo
by man prominent in the motion pic
ture world.
1t is said that five feet of film, cost
ing 70 cents, will suffice as means OF
identifying criminals in the future.
With photographs, finger prints and
motion pictures, together with the Ber-
tillon measurements, it was suggested
that it would be next to impossible for
criminals to escape.

Dedicated at Topeka.

The last great state wide reunion of

next year. The occasion will be the
dedication of Memorial hall, a mag
nificent marble structure which the
state of Kansas Is building at cost
Of almost $5OO,O00 in commemoration
Of the Union soldiers Of 1861 and 1865.
The hall will be finished, 1t Is expect
ed, by April or May, 1914. 1t has
been under construction two years,
former President Taft having laid the
cornerstone year ago last September.
'1t Is the idea," said Commander
Harrison, that all old soldiers in Kan
sas who are physically able to make
the trip attend the reunion next year.
If they cannot afford the expense we
will find some way to bring them"
There are probably $1,000 old SOL
diers now living in Kansas. Death is
thinning the ranks rapidly. The aver
age age Of old soldiers in the state Is
seventy-three years. Thousands Of
them settled in Kansas following the
civil war. In the later seventies, about
fifteen years after the close of the war,
there were 145,000 in the state.
