Good Reading for Sunday


Evolution.
A first-mist and a planet.
A crystal and a cell,
A jelly-fish and saurian,
And caves where the cave-men
dwell,
Then a sense of law and beauty
And a face turned from the clod-
Some call II evolution,
And others call II God.
A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite, tender sky,
The ripe. rich, tint of the cornfelds,
And the wild geese sailing high;
And all owe upland and lowland
The charm of the golden rod
Some Of us call 1t autumn,
And others call II God.
Like tides on a crescent sea beach,
When the moon Is new and thin,
Into our hearts high warnings
Come yelling and surging in;
Come from the mystic ocean,
Whose rim no foot has trod-
Some of us call 1t longing,
And others call il God.
A picket frozen on duty,
A mother starved for her brood,
Socrates drinking the hemlock,
And Jesus on the rood,
And millions, who. humble and name
less,
The straight, hard pathway plod-
Some call it conservation,
And others call IL God.

cities.
The fact that five-sevenths of the
bartenders intend leaving the city is
indicated by pol! which just has been

ments to take up farming. Some OF
them have leased land near Sioux City
ard the others will raise crops on

open cigar store, and two will &C
behind the soda fountain and dispense
temperance drinks.
OF the retail dealers most Of them
have made their plans. The whole

nearby territory in Nebraska and

DEARTH OF RURAL TEACHERS.

Rockwell City. Dec. 1.-THE Calhoun

fact that the other counties We're no

have to close If teachers can not be
found. The cause is hard to deter

Either the matrimonial state has be-
come more alluring or salaries may be
the cause But most likely the reason
wi! be found IN the fact that the state
has passed such rigid rules as far as
preparedness goes, and the examina-
tions required are 50 severe that many
can not pass them. And. too, salaries

to the requirements demanded. Some
plan will have to be adopted to make
