badly needed. Considerable new equip

it is quite certain that the changes
will be completed before the holiday
rush in the Office begins.

SOMETIME!

Sometime we'll start achieving
The things we want to do
Sometime we'll start weaving
Of friendships that are true
Sometime We'll write the letter
To cheer the lonely heart
Sometime we'll break the fetter
That binds us to the mart.
Sometime we'll pause to listen
To songs our heartwould sing,
Sometime a tear will glisten
AT some quaint human thing,
Sometime we'll pause for giving
Joy to our fellow men
Sometime begin our living
If life is not dead then.

MEMORIAL DAY, 1914
With hand upon the harp we walt in Freedoms

To welcome back our brayest and our best
But no. not all; some come not with the rest,
And harp strings throb in minor tones OF woe.
For in the ranks only see the gaps q
And think of loved one dreary earth now wraps.
Let other voices greet the living;
To me the past is unforgtying,
And TO the scared dead
In grief bow my head.
why weep and mourn we then. for that which
must enrich
Usy 10 the wiser and the saner mind
We rather seem the dead who stayed behind.
Blow trumpets. all your exultations blow,
Boom. cannon boom to all the winds and waves,
Resound through darkest cayerns, woods and
caves
Ring out glad bells. from every rock and steeple;
Praise, sing their deeds to every land and people.
That souls may from the touch divine
OF noble natures gone grow fine
BY many Truth is loved by others sighed for,
sought;
But these. our brothers higher natures, knew
He loves Truth best who TO himself is true,
And what he dares TO dream or dares to risS.
They followed Truth and found her piumed
and mailed
With dangers raging round, yet no man failed
To answer her clear call and yield
His sacred life on battlefield,
That deed TO faith might lend reviving breath,
And Truth smiled proudly on each face in death.
Thy life TO country may in many ways be given;
And loyalty TO truth as brayely sealed
In works of peace, as those OF cleaning shield
Brave youth. though called not TO a bloody war,
A strife of will now RACES fierce and strong.
Keep watch and save thy nation from all wrong.
What were our lives Of freedoms sweetness
shorn:
Protect this land where liberty was born.
Where peace and justice kissed and still hold
sway,
Where truth and mercy met and reign today,
Bow down. dear land in prayer and sing thy
Makers praise
For God has shown to thee the wisdom of His
ways.
