A RELIGIOUS RITE.

There is a solemnity in this break
ing up of winter, this gradual pre-
paration by nature of the fields of
this continent for the spring sowing.
Never before in the history of the
world has so much depended on the
spring sowing. Never before has
there been such solemnity about
it, such deep consciousness that in
the sowing of the fields there lies the
strength or the weakness of the
nations says the st. Paul Pioneer
Press. But, it is with a difference
that the sewers will go forth to- SOW
in the spring of nineteen fifteen, in
this northern hemisphere Of the
Americas. For exactly on the pow
er of the fields to yield their in
crease, and to increase that increase
over anything they have rendered
mankind before, hangs the welfare
of the world. From the Peace river,
TO the Rio Grande, every square inch
of field is important, every seed is
pregnant, every blade of green will be
significant. The farmers who go
forth to scatter the seeds may not
be conscious of the tremendous i'm
rortance of their work; they may
only be hoping that wheat at a dol
lar-siXty will be as possible in the
autumn as in this winter. But nev-
lare performing. For the world
will require bread next winter,
whether in camp or in town. And
the wheat fields of North America,
Or Canada and the United States.
must feed the world.

Someone has written that it's a
long way to "Tipperary'' in any walk
of life, and we all find it so. It's a
long way to an ideal. We have to go
a long way before we realize any lof-
ty, noble sentiment. It's long way
for the boy who is leaving school to
60 before he finds himself establish
ed in life, influential, leader, in his
community or state or nation. It's
a long way for the boy who leaves the
farm and goes to town. Eventually,
he may be a power in business, Or
leader of men, but Its long way
to CO." It's long way for the boy
with nothing but his hands and his
brains, who hopes some time to have
a home of his own, with the sweet
est girl he knows as his life part
ner. Then Its long way to 60 be-
fore his children are educated and
we'll settled in life; and by that time
he is pretty nearly ready to go. Its
long way to go" for young man TO
obtain complete mastery over his ap-
petites and his passions, to train his
mind to work smoothly at will, and
his hands to turn out satisfactory
product. It's long way to the reali-
zation of any good thing.
We all have our Tipperaries, where
we hope for happiness and satisfac-
ton insofar as what can be reached
in this world of ours. The only way
to get to any Tipperary is to Keep
