while playing with the cutter, Charles
| had the first two fingers on his left
hand severed nearly back to the second
joint. A doctor was called at once and
dressed the hand and Charles with a
brave smile is recovering from the

advance at the piano.
The wind storm of Sunday night

TEARS, IDLE TEARS.

TEARS, IDLE TEARS.
Tears, idle tears, I know not
what they mean.
Tears from the depth Of some
divine despair
Rise in the heart and gather in
the eyes,
In looking on the happy au-
tumn fields
And thinking Of the days that
are no more.
Fresh as the first beam glittering
on sail
That brings our friends up from
the underworld.
Sad as the last which reddens
over one
That sinks with all we love be-
low the verge;
So sad, SO fresh, the days. that
are no more.
All, sad and strange as in dark
summer dawns
The earliest pipe of half awak-
ened birds
To dying ears, when unto dying
eyes
The easement slowly grows
glimmering square;
So sad, SO strange, the days that
are no more.
Dear as remembered kisses aft
ter death
And sweet as those by hopeless
fancy feigned,
On lips that are for others; deep
as love.
Deep as first love and wild with
all regret.
Oh, death in life, the days that
are no more!
Alfred Tennyson.

and methods, both individual and national, to such an extent as to recognize the just rights and pro- per desires of others,
 To discourage the military spirit in our men and boys, the growth of a military class, the development of military and naval equipment in our nation.
 To base our moral ideals upon the New Testament and have faith that they will carry us through even when we can not clearly see the flu ture way.
 To nourish within ourselves and our neighbors the christian spirit, so that as far as in us lies there can be no war;to do our full duty by moral methods and then trust to the care and providence of God.

MUCH CORN NEEDED

Before this year ends Europe s likely to learn more than 1t has ever known about the use of corn +or human food, Americans understand much better than the old world does how good a sub stitute corn bread can be for wheat bread and how excellent corn cakes and corn meal mush ere when rightly prepared.
 Meanwhile the demand for corn for seeding domestic animals is certain to be very strong, in this country and in Europe. Fodder is scarce in the countries at war and growing more difficult to ob- tain. The price of meat is sui ficiaut evidence of the demand for corn-led beef and pork.
 All of which is proof that Ameri- can farmers can count with entire confidence upon a good market for au ne corn they will have to sell next fall. The greatest cereal crop of the United states certainly will rot be too big this year. It is likely to fall short of meeting the urgent needs of consumers.
 Farmers who have land which is well adapted to corn do not have to look for good crop to grow on such fields. It is indicated very clearly this season by the conditions which exist in Flu rope as well as America and are quite certain to outlaSt the war.

WHY WE SHOULD NOT
 INCREASE OUR APARTMENTS

This article written by Isaac sharpless of Haverford college, ap- peared in this months issue of Present Day Papers" and was en- dorsed by the Representative Meet ing of the Society of Friends held at Fourth and Arch streets, Phila- 1elpnia, 1st month, 18th, 1915.
 There are various reasons why the United States should not con- tract the disease of large arma- ments, It is a contagious disease and one with which the news of the present day infects certain classes of our citizens.
 These classes are composed of ID those who are connected with the army and navy, who give their time and scientific knowledge 10 the study of the past and future of war; (2) those who directly, or at secondhand, expect to profit com mercially by a war or an armed Ieace, and (3) those honest patriots who really believe the various stories of expected attacks upon our national integrity or prosperity in duced by the hate or avarice of ether nations.
 The first class is happily small, due to our peaceful traditions. Its members are, however, active and, in proportion to their numbers, influ- ential. They have developed their subject into one of considerable in terest and scientific expansion. They are intelligent and mostly sincere and patriotic The second class need have little consideration. They are, as many Americans, after busi- ness profits, and if the preaching of The doctrines of war pays they will use their influence upon public opin ion, through the press, to fill their private coffers. There are more of them in the aggregate than one gen erally recognizes.
 The third class is made up of me who are open to conviction and will ultimately determine the question. The following consideration may ap- peal to some of them:
 It is not likely that any of the nations now at war in Europe will be ready to attack the United States for several decades. In the mean time any guns or gunboats we choose to make will be antiquated and a dead loss. These nations, let the war eventuate as it will, will be burdened with fearful taxes, with crippled industries, with abundant memories of the horrors of the bat uefield and the suffering of the part of the popula- tion.
