TO HER.

I'm glad God let me live to hear your
voice,
1t routs the pangs which sometimes
fill my heart,
It's tenderness has blessed my twilight
hours,
1t lights my path when shadows fore
me start.
I'm glad God let me live to see your
eyes,
So fraught with love and trust and
purity.
They've given me faith in self, in man
and God,
They are the beacon lights of life to
me.
I'm glad Godl ct me hear and see and
love you,
To know you're in the world makes
life worth while,
l have no fairer view of Joy in
heaven
Than just to hear your voice and see
you smile.

follows:
There is no honor in getting into
a free-for-all fight, but there Is a
whole basketful of honor in staying
out.
IF score of men were fighting in
front of my house, fighting furiously
with knives, clubs and guns, strik-
ing wildly, and all fighting madly for
their lives, l would not think OF
standing around continuously prod
ding the fighters about my rights.
If l did, l would expect to get a
broken nose or nasty lick over my
eye. Even if they staggered onto
my radish patch / would not at once
challenge the whole bunch for a
fight. No; l would slip away and
come back and see them at their
homes when the fight was over and
they were reasonable and cool; and
/ would ask them If they did not
think they owed me something for
tearing up my garden at the time
they had the scrap, and SIS against
a. coon skin they would pay all /
asked, and would go away without
even a broken nose or battered eye.

gress to stop talking about war, and
l would tell the travelling public to
stay at home; but If they must go
abroad, to travel on ships that bear
our flag, and would let them know
If they did not honor my request
and met. with an accident or got kill
ed / would further give everybody
to understand that all disputes in
regard to commerce would be settled
after the war when the heads of
men, now hot with anger and wild
with rage, are cool.
ut is not time to be exacting when

fight, and one time | was bitten thru

I was trying to referee his scrap
That, however, was long time ago

tice to do my talking the day after

PROVED TWO
IN ONE

Preparedness came home to Black
foot last week in school debate
1t was resolved that preparedness was
the proper thing, and the affirmative
speakers was not well prepared. They
were in the same position now oc-
cupied by the United States; they
let the time of the contest approach
thinking they had the best of it and
had only to meet the enemy with
their strong side of the question and
their natural ability and the victory
would be theirs.
Now it happened that it is we'll
known in Blackfoot that the school
debaters generally go into battle
without weapons, the negative
speakers on this occasion, knowing
they had the weak side of the ques-
ton, decided that their only hope
lay in the lack of preparedness of
their opponents and they gathered up
a few arguments and went into bat
tie and won. In winning against
preparedness they demonstrated that
it was preparedness that did it.

HOW TO KEEP
NEUTRAL

What we as nation should do
to keep out of war and promote
peace and at the same time uphold
the civic rights of mankind and our
nation. First: We are a peace low
ing nation. Second: We have no
quarrel with any nation, nor do we
want any.
1t is self-evident fact that if we
do not ship munitions Of war to any
nation at war that they can have no
quarrel with us. That being a fact
we should not consider the monetary
profit or benefit that we receive from
same, which does SO few of us any
good, as all good, peace loving,
Americans will agree.
Now we should give them ninety
days or less to get what they have
contracted for out of the country
and then see that there is no more
munitions Of war sent to any nation
at war. Then let the president ap-
point a commission to confer with a
commission from England and Ger
many as to what they will allow to
go to each other. And If there is
any article that one won't allow
shipped to the other, then we will
not SLIP same to them. Now as soon
as they find out that one can't get
an article without the other getting
1t also, they will soon reach an agree
ment as to what they will allow to
pass without being molested; and we
can remain neutral to all nations and
our flag will meet with cheers wher-
ever SEEM Contributed.

HELEN KELLER HEARS"
Famous Woman Well Known in Mex
leo, Missouri.

Atlanta, Ca, May L.. Miss Helen
Keller, the worlds most famous deaf
and blind woman, placed her fingers
on the lips and throat of Enrico Ca
russo, in his rooms in the Georgian
Terrace Hotel, yesterday, and heard
him sing 1.-THE Lament of Sampson"
blinded and in chains, grinding corn
for the Philistines"
Thru the medium of her sensitive
fingers the melodious voice of the
great tenor thrilled her and as she
sat and listened her blind eyes wet
with tears and she gasped over and
over and over again: wonderful!
Wonderful!
Caruso sang the aria in the first
scene of the last act of Samson and
Delilah," and as he sang his eyes
filled with tears and his voice grew
husky with the pathos of the song.
"Oh, wonderful, wonderful" 4"
breathed Miss Keller. "Tho 1 cannot
see your face 1 can feel the pathos of
your song"
And with his lips against her hands
| Caruso said:
"In your fingers l can feel your
soul. In your blue eyes your soul is
shining"
Miss Keller almost collapsed so
powerfully had the voice of the tenor
and his kindly words stirred her.
