IowA's POPULATION.
Monticello Express,1

Those who bemoaned the act that
Iowa lost in population between 1900
and 1910. and who urged that fact as
uncomplimentary to the state, lost
sight Of the most important element
in the measure Of a states material
prosperity; that was our unprecedent-
ed increase OF wealth. Our prosperity
is not to be measured by the number
OF people we have. But the possessions
of those people-their material re-
sources. their ability to live in high
degree Of comfort-these are the things
that have pushed Iowa high. During
these years OF stagnant population
Iowa has not been idle. We seem to
have had population enough Of saw
ing disposition to land the state next
to the very top Of all the states in the
per capita wealth Of its inhabitants.
The average wealth OF the American
citizen is 31,965, according to the latest
census statistics. whereas the average
Iowan is worth $3.50 The only state
that exceeds this is the mining state Of
Nevada. We already hold the palm for
literacy. Isn't it worth more to be
the richest and most literate state than
to have the densest population with
the trouble that comes with congested
centers of population? Iowa Is all
right he would rather be contented in
the material welfare Of her people than
to be great in numbers.

baseball and basketball coach, has
contract with the Ithacan institution

iron to the teaching of Sharpe Cor

FROM THE GOLDEN BOOKS.
Where the Noble Have Their Coun-
try ...

Try,
Above the grandeur of the sunsets
Which delight this earthly cline
And the splendors of the dawnings
Break Ter the hills of time,
Is the richness of the radiance
Of the land beyond the sun,
Where the noble have their country
When the work Of life is done.
There is the mysterious problem
OF their earthly life made plain;
All the bitter turned to sweetness,
All the losses turned to gain.
There the rapture of the new life
Far exceeds the griefs of this,
And earth's toiling is forgotten
In the restfulness of bliss.
And the music of their welcome
From angelic Tyres of gold
Shall full often be repeated,
Yet it never shall grow old;
Music grander than earth S noblest,
Than all eloquence of words,
And the sweetest of the carols
OF the gladdest of the birds.
Far removed and freed forever
From the artifice of time,
Shall the noble of that country
In the real of that cline
Read the wisdom of the Father,
From whose alternating hand
Are the beauties and the glories
And the people of that land.
There they rightly read the visions
| OF the ancient seers, that give
| Higher good than urban splendors
! Where the saints at last shall live;
Where they surely find heaven
Not conventional or made,
And inhabitants deighting
In the hillside, brook and shade.
Fer magnificent with forests
Is that country of the skies,
Far exceling in their birdsongs
All the earthly minstrelsies;
And that country hath It's mountains
And is resonant with streams
That are sweeter in their music
Than the rivers of our dreams.
Blooms Of finest form and luster,
Fragrant on the eternal hills,
With their odors bless the Zephyrs,
That, harmonious with the rills,
Sing, to give the angels pleasure
Who were fit to sing the birth
Of the Savior of the sorrowing
And the sinful of the earth.
And his mission there completed
He shall reign with them above
And instruct them in the wonders
OF the country of his love
Where he giveth them an entrance
And that higher work to do
That shall keep them ever growing
And the charm of living new.
And his name throughout the ages,
As the aeons circle by
To the trend and the cadence
Of their own eternity.
Shall be theme and inspiration
In the land beyond the sun.
Where the noble have their country
When the work of life is done.
