TO THE MAN ON THE "oUTsIDE'

Say, friend-wherever you may be-
If you these lines should read
Remember that I'm giving you
Some information held by few.
And though you may not need
Suggestions now along this line,
From one whom locks and bars contine,
1t will not hurt you in the least
If my advice you heed.
If you, through any qurk of Fate.
Should ever chance to be
Behind steel bars for months years,
Know this: IT'S best to shed your tears
Where other men can't see
And that friendly smiling face
Will help to win the choicest place
In prison. just the same as in
The world where men are free
Here is truth: All those in Jail
But reap what they have sown.
(Tnis sweeping statement would hold true
Were we by chance to speak of you).
And men with whom you're thrown
From day to day will not believe
You're lnnocent-nor will they grieve
With you about your own sad case
They We troubles of their own.
While you're in Jail or out on bond,
OF course you'll make play
At innocence; but when your fate
Is sealed by some state prison gate,
First. to your own self bay:
You've bucked losing game. you ass!
It's brought you to pretty pass!"
Then, fgurativey. JUST KICK
YoURsEL for one whole day.
But let the kicking stop right there;
Then settle down to plan,
And think, and act-and in way
Whereby you might from day to day
Do all the GOOD you can
For others and yourself And when
You're out again 'mongst honest men,
DON'T whine about pass that's dead
Brace up-W ork-BE MAN.

True Riches

IT'S not the gold which we secure;
Nor that we win while others fall
Nor the success and glory gained,
That weighs the most in life's true scale
These riches come and 60 too fast;
They crumble oft within the hand
That holds them; or they take their fight
And leaves us poor on sea and land.
The wealth that counts comes from the heart
OF him who gives his truest self,
To help and cheer our fellowmen,
Cause he loves them, and not their pelf.
IT'S loving deeds and kindness wrought
IT'S friendship shown and help we've giv'n,
That Constitutes the test of wealth,
Aud brings to us a touch of Heav'n.

PRAYER

Europe is all one tomb The awful words
Make the most hardened among sigh;
And still the soldier multitudes by,
Cold egons with their life blood turned to curds.
For they have their fellows desperate herds
Stumble upon the striker plain and die;
And they have known the buzzard's long, harsh cry
And they have missed the music of the BIRDS
God send US healing pity of green grass
And heartenng flowers and help of trees,
To bury The Red Shane forever more;
And they whose bodies perish, they who pass
Out of the World and unknown
Send them forgetfulness of Death and War.

Ought To Be Doing Time
The clock methinks, is a disgrace,
Although it seldom shirks,
1t holds it's hands before it's face,
And then runs down good works.

And has shameful trick
Of showing impudence sublime
While running on on tick!

THE BUGGY RIDE

Despite the changing times, l cher
ish the conviction that if there is any,
one within sound of this typewriter
who has missed taking his girl out
riding with the old hoss and buggy
of fame, he has missed something.
When grandma wore that bonnet,
An grandpa wore this hat,
They took a horse m buggy
An 'loped-jes' think O. that!
He said, "You're awful pretty"
She said, "You're brave and true"
An then, beneath that bonnet,
think they kissed, don't you?
The long summer afternoon on the
country roads is pleasant but if it
is evening and there is moonlight
thrown in, it becomes dream. You
drive up to her home with some tre-
pidation, put in the clutch and the
brake and the hoss anchors.
She is ready with surprising quick
ness. She must have expected you.
That bit of ribbon on her hair and
that flower!
"Where are we going?" she asks
casually, with the warm blood in her
cheek, and, as you work the self
starter on the boss, release the clutch
and he shows signs of forward move
ment, you reply: ITO the end of the
world" and she makes no objection.
Can you beat il?
You have Youth and day, and you
know as well as anything can be
known that the pomp of emperors
in comparison is as 30 cents. Down
the long, winding road to heaven,
through the cool, shady, woodland
places, by the shores of still lakes
and along the dusty and flower
bordered highways of this life, the
boss and buggy move.
Slowly the talk drifts towards i'm
perishable condolences, to little low
ing "asides", to the touches of friend
ly hands and feet, till someone says:
81 could ride so forever" The word
has been said, the old story is told
again-and the troubles of long life
time together have begun.
! Will no one stop them? Will nc
one shout aloud to them: "Youne
folks, the rapids are before you! STOP
now, before it is everlastingly toe
late!" No. No one shouts thus
and so they go to their doom and are
marRied and live happily ever after
] or, at least, for some time, and thu
tide rises and the tide falls. And no
II body tries to stop it.-Minneapoli'
Journal.
The Glasgow courier., 1916-07-28

One of the very first classes of
business men to organize thmselves
into a national trade body was the
Carriage Builders National Associa-
tion, which held it's first meeting in
New York City in 1872. Every year
since that time the carriage builders
have gathered together in some city,
alternately in the East and West, for
discussion of business matters and a
good social time.
At their annual banquets the car
riage builders have had the honor of
listening to such men as Gen. William
Tecumseh Sherman, the late Presi-
dent Mckinley, Oliver Wendell
Holmes, Edward Everett Hale and
many others equally distinguished.
DR.. Holmes, the author of the famous
poem "The One-Hoss Shay" accepted
an honorary membership in the asso-
citation, which he held until his death.
His letter of acceptance to the secre-
tary of carriage builders organiza-
tion is one of the treasures of the
archives of the association.
This year the Carriage Builders
National Association will hold it's for
ty-fourth consecutive annual conven-
ton at Cincinnati, Ohio, during the
week of September 25-29, and an un-
usually good attendance is anticipat-
ed.
Naturally the competition of the
automobile has had its effet on the
carriage trade. There are not 50
many firms engaged in the manufac-
ture of buggies and surreys as there
were in former years. Neither are
so many of these vehicles being built
as formerly.
Nevertheless, the production, ac-
cording to census report made pub
lie in June of this year, gives the num-
ber of horse-drawn vehicles produced
in 1914 as in excess Of 1887, 900 of all
classes. Of this number 1884, re-
presented the output of buggy fact
ories, the remainder, including wag-
ons, hearses, omnibuses, hacks, and
other varieties of horse-drawn We
hicles. The total value was $685.
792,357. In all, $500 manufacturing
establishments were included in the
enumeration.
From these official statistics it is
clear that the horse-drawn vehicle in
dustry is still thriving business in
the United States, and that although
the production has fallen off during
the last few years, those who have re-
mained in the business are still en-.
joying their old-time prosperity.
There is every indication that the
i 1915 census, when made public, will
show a considerable increase in botl
production and value, as there ha:
been quite a revival in the use O
the horse-drawn buggy during tn
last twelve months. Statistics OBJ
tanned from manufacturers of wheels
axles and other parts, indicate a larg
er buggy production during 1915 a.
compared with the year on which tn
governments recently published fig
ures are based.

VENTION IN CINCINNA1

Nowadays almost every line of in
i, dustry has it's trade organization and
its annual convention, where ideas are
exchanged, papers read and members
have the opportunity of making the
acquaintance of other men interest
ed in their own particular line.
Forty-four years ago such business
organizations and conventions were
almost unheard of. They could, in
the United States, be counted on less
than the fingers of one hand.
