EUROPEAN WAR.


What Of the war in Europe!
Can anybody tell
What shall the final outcome
OF that thunder storm of hell?
And lands and seas OF carnage
We daily read and hear.
Though the promised down Millenlal
Pastor Russell thought was near.
What of the war in Europe?
When backwards the centuries rec
And a continent trembles with thunder
OF cannon and crashing steel
And the prayers and tears of women
And children are in vain,
And only a heap of ashes left
OF the beautiful Louvain.,
What of the German Kaiser
Who defies international Jaw,
And marches his army to Belgium
Without declaring war;
To burn and pillage and plumber
And get at the throat Of France
And threatens to wollop Uncle Sam
AS soon as he gets chance.
Our army and our navy
Are not so very slim,
The sour krout and busmernoel
They'll soon knock out of him
If he comes across the ocean
All the Yankee Doodles to kill
They'll give him Hail Columbia"

He prays to his God to help him
Pile high the Belgian slain,
And call it glorious victory
More empire to obtain;
Twas God defeated Napoleon

Before the war is through
A holy war the Kings proclaim
But all for greed and gain,

With wild thirst Cor vengeance

This past spring and summe-
Harvey not only worked throug:,
two grades out of school and
studied music. but, incidentally
cleaned up 5000 in real money.
He did it by growing first class
radishes. roasting ears and toma-
toes for the city market. and by
getting the market price.
Harvey leased from his father
a patch of truck farm "a little
smaller than an acre. paying full
rental: bought his own tools and
seed. kept accurate books and
ended the season a net winner
by a few cents over 5000.
1t would be just like him to
lease two or three acres next
year and hire help.
He probably won't go to col
lege. because the studying he has
been doing to learn the secrets
Of seed cultivation. soil strength
and plant life forms in itself a
pretty good college education.
Of course Harvey was lucky Ia
being right next door to a big
market. That helped. Sill,
most any boy, if full of pep, could
do about as well, provided he
made equal good use of his chan
ces.
