 The sooner interest is shown in the subject by the mothers of the land the sooner will reform take place.

Nobility Of Labor

(ByJohn Poole in The Labor Leader.)
! We hear these canting days about
the nobility OF labor. This is a favor
tie theme for lawyers, preachers and
editorial writer's. In fact the preacher
who never does a day of real, produc-
tive labor makes a regular practice OF
fishing from his barrel that little
thumb4worn sermon on ''The laborer
is worthy of his hire"
But are these men sinceer? Are
they honest with themselves? 10 -
really believe that labor is. such L ,
bile thing? If so, why don't they get
out and do some of this noble work
and ennoble themselves? No, in their
heart of hearts, they know that labor
is an ignoble thing and they don't
practice their preaching in their own
lives.
Take the lawyer for instance. He
has a big case in court. He charges a
fee of several hundred dollars. He w
then take his money that he mad in g
few days and hire some pobless man
to NOW his lawn, milk his COW ano
do his other hard work for an entire

Let me i've, o Mighty Master.
Such a life as men should know.
Tasting triumph and isaster,
Joy-and not too much of woe.
Let me run the gamut over,
Let me fight and love and laugh,
And when Inn beneath the clover,
Let this be my epitaph:
Here lies one who took his chances
In the busy world of men,
Battled luck and circumstances,
Fought and fell, and fought again.
Won sometinmes-but did no Growing
Lost sometimes didn't wall,
Took his beating hut kept going,
Never let his courage fail.
'tHe was fallible and human,
Therefore loved and understood
Both his fellow men and women, T.
Whether good or-not so good!
Kept his spirit undiminished,
Never lay down on friend.
Played the game till it was finished,
Lived sportsman to the end.
