HOMES

A home is an institution that fam
lies maintain as a sort of head
quarters for meals and lodging.
Most families think a great deal Of
their home and, to prevent wearing
it out, use it no more than is abso-
lutely necessary. We suppose there
are both men and women who really
enjoy living at home, but these par
ticular characters seem never to
meet before they establish a home
Of their own-and it's dangerous for
hem to meet afterward.

CURED at his home in Washington
ID. c., Monday, at the age Of
seventy-two years. He attended
school at Spencer, this county
and many old schoolmates still
live in this section. Early in
life he showed an aptitude for writ
ing and was a great student.
Col. Joyce was born in Shraugh,
Ireland, July 4, 1910. Besides be-
ing the author of several books of
verses mostly eulogistic of famous
men, he had written numerous other
well-known lines. A warm contro-
versy over the authorship of the
sentimental poem, "The Way of the
World" better known by its first
lines, Laugh and the World Laughs
With You," with Ella Wheeler VIII
cox held the spotlight for a number
Of years. Col. Joyce's claim that
the, piece had been slightly revised
from lines he had written was given
credence by one circle Of literary
critics, while another circle cham
pioned the cause of Ella Wheeler
Wilcox.
Col. Joyce was the son Of Michael
and Catherine Joyce, who brought
him to Kentucky when a child. Two
years before entering the Union ar
my he stndicd law in Owingsville. |
He enlisted as private in the Tween.
ty-fourth Kentucky Regiment in |
September, 1861, was appointed q
Second Lieutenant in March, 1862,
and an Adjutant in September of
the same year. Two years later
he was honorably discharged from
service on account of wounds.
After the war Col. Joyce entered
the practice of law. His first work
was published in 1888, "Checkered
Life" From then the Colonel con-
tributed regularly to the literary
world. Some of his works included
Peculiar Poems," published in
1885; "Zig-Zag," 1888; "Jewels of
1896; Complete Poems,"
1899; "Oliver Goldsmith" 1901;
Edgar Allen Poe" 1901; Brick
bats and Bouquets" 1902; 'Beauti-
'ul Washington" personal Recol-
ections of Shakespeare" Bullets Of
TRUTH" Robert Burns" and 'Life
# Lincoln" published during the
asst few years Of his life.
He studied law under the late
senator Allison, of Iowa, and was a =
lose friend Of President Lincoln. r
;ol. Joyce was first an employee of y
he Post-ofice Department and lat
erly of the Treasury Department.
'efore his death he had prepared 4,
