WORK
A Song of Triumph.

n oOft& vi ifiuh'pH'
Thank God for the might of it,
The ardor, the urge, the delight OF 1t
Work that springs from the hearts desire,
Setting the soul and the brain on fire
Oh, what is good as the heat of 1t,
And what is glad as the beat OF It,,
And what is SO kind as the stern command
Challenging brain and heart and hand?
Work!
Thank God for the pride of il,
Fer the beautiful, conquering tide Of it,
Sweeping the life in its furious food
Thrilling the arteries, cleansing the blood,
Mastering stupor and dull despair,
Moving the dreamer to do and dare.
Oh, what is so good the urge of it,
And what is so glad the surge of 1t.
And what is so strong as the summons deep
Rousing the torpid soul from sleep?
Work!
Thank God for the pace OF II,
For the terrible. keen, swift race of II;
Fiery steeds in full control
Nostrils a-quiver to greet the goal.
Work. the power that drives behind.
Guiding the purposes, tanning the mind
Holding the runaway wishes back
Refining the will to one steady track,
Speeding the energies faster, faster,
Triumphing over disaster.
Oh what is so good as the pain of it,
And what is so great the gain of 1t,
And what is so kind the cruel goad
Forcing US on through the rugged road?
Work!
Thank God for the swing Of il,
For the clamoring, hammering ring OF it;
Passion of labor daily hurled
On the mighty anyils of the world.
Oh what is so fierce as the fame Of il,
And what is so huge as .he aim of it,
laundering on through dearth and doubt,
Calling the plan Of the Maker out;
Work, the Titan; Work, the friend,
Shaping the earth to a glorious end;
Draining The swamps and blasting the hills,
Doing whatever the spirit wills,
Rending continent apart
To answer the dream Of the Master heart.
Thank God for a world where none may shrl
Thank God for the spleEdor of work,

TWILIGHT SLEEP
Extravaganza of Claims in Its Behalf
Is Criticised.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Your issue of Wednesday con-
tains an article in which woman
physician of Flushing is said to have
discovered the twilight sleep" form
ula. Now, | very much doubt If the
lady would personally make that
claim, and | think that she is mis-
quoted. According to my own expert
ence, the scopolamin-morphine anas-
thesia is nine or ten years old, and
have personally used the twilight
sleep" method at intervals for several
years. and know that others all over
the country also have done so for
probably seven or eight years. Form
ulas vary, but all contain morphine;
leave that out and you have whiskcy
punch without the whiskey.
The general public seems 10 have
gone absolutely crazy and nysterical
over the lay exploitation Of n method
which has been advocated by many
physicians for long time. The
method has its uses, but also its dan
gers and limitations. According to my
experience, the lay journals which are
the opponents of the so-called
method" are unwilling to publish any
criticism upon il. AS ! stated before,
the morphine is the essential element
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1914-12-06

in the method" The other drugs may
modify it somewhat favorably, but 1t
is the same old dope" and the same
forming drug. Now, do not nine
cut of ten morphine fiends refer their
downfall to some doctor who first ad-
ministersd the drug to them? And at
the present time, when this rage and
hysteria is rampant, | desire to bear
witness that it is the lay advocacy
of habit-forming drugs that is impel-
ling physicians and hospitals to their
indiscriminate use.
am not condemning the method as
2 whole, but the extravaganza of its
claims and the minimizing Of its dan
gers seem to call for halt and a
little calm consideration.

perfectly possible, however to keep track OF these
gangs by ordinarily astute detective work, and to
police them relentlessly, so that their occupations
of robbery and murder should become really dan

The only favor they should receive is to be put

At the close of his talk before a Sunday school the bishop invited questions.
 A tiny boy. with a white eager face, at once held up his hand.

Etta Clifford Young, one of the contributed to the club department of The Republican with one of her famous "Mirandy'' stories, written exclusively for this issue. Mrs. Young is newspaper woman of experience, having been associated with various papers in the south and southwest, and before accepting the position as associate editor of The Arizona Magazine was connected with the editorial department of The Republican,. She is persistent Arizona booster and her articles dealing with interesting mountain resorts in this state have done much to promote their popularity Mrs. Young's ambition, however, is to be- come known by her "Mirandy' stories. which she hopes will occupy the same place in western literature that Samantha Allen" holds in the east. The idea seems quite possible, for Mrs. Young has a large following devoted to the philosophy of "Mirandy.' She teaches a lesson without preaching and has inter- esting views on every subject of importance. Today she regrets the lack of personal touch'' in the af fairs of the modern woman. This is a subject that has been discussed frequently by club women, but never quite expressed in Mrs. Young's unique style. The author is club woman, and this is what she has to say to other club women this morning:
