Y. M. C.. A. NOTES

The organization of. mock United
States Congress by the junior depart
ment of the Y. NJ. c. A. Tuesday eve
ming was a marked success. A spirited
session lasted from 7.30 until O'Clock
The, Office of speaker was held by Will
fred Hall and that of clerk was filled
by F. B. Sprague. About 20 of The
boys drew coupons designating the
state which they will represent in the
sessions of the Congress. Three bills
We're presented over which lively de-
bate and eloquent oratory waxed fer
vently. This feature of the associa-
ton should prove one of the most
valuable of the Junior department.
Generally such a thing is of tremen-
dous value because of the common
community of interests which it ere
ates and individually it's value cannot
be over-estimated for the many Incl
dentals, such as rules of order, par
liamentary law, extemporaneous
speaking and debate, in their bulk,
that constitute the most important
factor in this activity. The enthusiasm
with which the organization of the
congress is accepted and carried for
ward by the boy members has given
the movement a sound foundation.

SONGS OF NIGHT

The moon swings low in the sky
above,
And the twinkling stars shine
bright,
And a mother sings to her baby love,
Those wonderful songs of night;
Those wonderful songs of sugar plum
trees,
And fields where the fairies play,
OF cockle-shell boats on golden seas
That never are seen by day.
1t is by-low time and she sweetly
huns
Those wonderful songs of night:
OF the blare of trumpets and sounds
of drums
When the little tin soldiers fight;
She sings of comical candy dog
And the gingerbread man who
stands
BY the side of blinking crooky frog,
without any arms or hands.
And the moonbeams dance on the
parlor floor,
And a ship sets out at sea,
And baby sails for the golden shore
In search of the sugar plum tree;
She's off to the cave of the Teddy
Bear,
And the haunts of the fairies kind
No thoughts of tomorrow's worries
Shall trouble her baby mind.
Oh, sweet is the smile on the baby
face
And if ever song can reach the
| skies,
| The angels must find delight
In hearing a mothers lullabies-
Those wonderful songs of night.
