Recently there has appeared in this
paper several articles dealing with
the railroad conditions in the United
States. The articles were properly
credited as advertisements so there
was no purpose or attempt to deceive
the people. They were, however, so
eminently fair that We believe much
good was accomplished in giving the
railroad situation better understand
ing and conclusively showed that the
relations between these indispensable
carriers and the public are SO closely
allied that the harm to one affects the
other There is a conviction all over
the country that the railroads should
be given more support and less oppo-
sition.

The citizens and especially the par

pose of entertaining, educating and
strengthening the children OF our

anxious attention.
The ladies OF the Carthage Chapter
of Py e. o., have undertaken to fur
nish the grounds of the primary and

ment for popular and profitable play
grounds. This will consist Of slides,
swings, hanging rings, ETC., which can
be used in preparation for higher
gymnasium work. Here is some
thing that will interest all of the
children as well as the older ones. :
These women will furnish the
equipment as they have funds and
will ask the hearty support Of the
men and women and children of Car
thage as they come before the public
from time to time in unpretentious
ways.
The first effort toward securing
means will be made next Wednesday

WHEN MY SHIP COMES IN.

WHEN MY SHIP COMES IN.
Somewhere out on the blue seas sail
ing,
Where the wild waves dance and
go spin;
Beyond the reach Of my eager hail
ing
Over the breakers din,
Out where the dark storm clouds are
drifting,
Out where the binding fog is lifting,
Out where the treacherous sand is
shifting,
My ship is coming in.
Oh, have watched It'll my eyes were
aching,
Day after weary day,
Oh, ! have hoped til my heart was
breaking,
While the long night ebbed away
Could / but know where the storms
have tossed her.
Gould / but know where the winds
had lost her,
Out in the twilight gray.
But though the storms her course
have altered,
Surely the port she'll win,
Never my faith in my ship has fall
tered,
know she is coming in.
For through the restless ways of her
roaming,
Through the mad rush of the wild
waves foaming,
Through the white crest of the bill
lows combing,
My ship is coming in.
Breasting the tides where the gulls
are flying,
Swiftly she's coming in;
Shadows and deeps and rocks defy
Bravely she's coming in.
Precious the love she will bring to
bless me,
Strong the arm she will bring to
caress me,
In the proud purple OF kings she will
dress me,
My ship that Is coming in.
White in the sunshine her sails will
be cleaning:
See, where my ship comes in,
at masthead and peak her colors
streaming,
Proudly she's coming in!
Love, Hope and Joy on her decks are
cheering,
Music will welcome her glad appear
ing,
And my heart will sing at her state
ly nearing,
When my ship comes sailing In.
Robert Burdette.
