to get into trouble spending it.
Work is the thing that KEEPS
youth straight; work is the one medi-
cine that cures youth of its vast and
stupendous folly. If a young man has
fifty thousand year to spend, he has
no more chance of being decent than
a N onkey.
In South Africa, in the interior, the
native custom provides that all the
young negroes shall GO to bed at dusk
in tree houses reached by ladders, and
the smart old men come and take the
ladders down.
But give young man fifty thousar d
dollars to spend, let him sit up nights,
and give him access 10 the ladder at
all hours of the night and he will go
to the Bad Place sure. Can it be that
the African savages know more of
life than we do?

Or of some hard earned victory won;

But leaving things that are behind

To make the star of hopes bright ray

DediCQfeS
II Poem to
His friends

The following poem is from the pen
of George E. Herrick of Three Mile
Bay, New York. Mr.. HerIick has
visited here, is an uncle of Mrs. Charles
Beardsley of Fairfield and brother
Of the late Hiram Herrick who resided
at Barsboo many years ago. The
poem was written by Mr.. Eerrick
on arriving at the age of rs years and
is the reflections on human life after
reaching that period. He dedicate d
the poem to his friends.
The sun had reached the Western sky,
Andlthe shades Of night were drawing
nigh;
And as [ watched it sink from sight
In fading tints of glimmering light,
My thoughts in retrospection ran
Upon the rising and setting sun of
man.
From days of youth to manhood's
prime
How slowly ran the sands of time;
And then alas with quickening pace,
Swifter the years each other chase,
And as unused L thought how soon
Times dial points to life's high moon
The bright home life of early days
Came back to cheer with golden rays;
Ere the ties around that dear hearth
stone
Were severedsand left us here alone;
Home ties that bound with cords Of
love
Will be reunited in the home above.
When fully grown to mans estate,
No undertaking seemed too great;
And with fond ideals sought control
OF events to reach some cherished
goal;
But alas the plans that man pro-
poses
A higher power oft disposes.
Like the echoing rhapsody of song
Too soon our allotted days are gone;
AS the morning mists beyond recall
And On memory only their she'd
ows fall.
TO bring back from those long slum-
bering years
Successes, fai ures, JOY or tears.
Soon on the wings of borrowed tone
We catch glimpses of the border line;
Five added years in mercy lent;
Alas, how have those years been spent?
When the books are opened shall we
find
Aught we have done to help mankind?
Each day we made some new3resolve
Which worthy acts and deeds in
volved;
Something that called for self denied,
And still we were not satisfied.
But hoping further time 10 borrow,
Resolved TO make amends tomorrow.
The problems of human life suggest,
w LIEU VIC AZ lCDk Gn 10 Tie maj
test,
That ambitious aims and acts of men
May leave regrets of what might have
been,
And in place of making life sublime,
Mistakes and failures ottenest find.
And still from out those bygone years,
An oasis here and there appears;
Blessed benedictions on old age
To hide the b OTIS on memory's page;
Green spots of verdure without blight,
To relieve the past with mellowing
light.
Those five and severity years of life,
Bear scars from many battle strife,

a result. 1t IL said, of graft, those

highly.
Then the remarks we have chroni-

in the eyes Of the young man usually
so calm and smiling, and he walked
straight to the office of the manager
Robert Wilson.
Lewis had charge of a department
and no one had ever eXcelled him in
his position. He was valuable man
in his place and the manager fully
appreciated the fact. They were quite
close friends.
