(Tertius Van Dyke.)
Heroic heart that dares to face the
rage
OF fierce, impetuous word and
headstrong will,
Thou knowest that by patience of
the sage
Is won the truth that sets men S
hearts athrill.
Thou darest curb the Hotspur-cast
aside
The Establishments of those that
that seek for gain
The thwarted politicians may deride;
Wrath, Establishments and mock
cry are vain.
Lo! thou dost stand beset but not
dismayed
While raucous voices stridently
declaim;
Thou ,eazest at the future unafraid
Needless of threats and caring not
for fame.
In the worlds night of death ant
wild surprise,
Though dust and smoke of con-
flict round thee roll,
Yet canst thou read with sad, pro-
phetic eyes
The glorious vision of thy Nations
soul.

OPPORTUNITY

With doubt and dismay you are
smitten;
You think there's no chance for
you, son?
why, the best books haven't been
written,
The best race hasn't been run,
The best score hasn't been made yet,
The best song hasn't been sung.
The best tune hasn't been played
yet;
Cheer up, the world is young
No chance? Why the world is just
eager
For things that you ought to Gre
ate;
Its store of true wealth is still mea-
ger,
Its needs are incessant and great.
1t yearns for more power and beauty,
More laughter and love and ro-
nance,
More loyalty, labor and duty;
No chance? Why there's nothing
but chance!
For the best verse hasn't been
ryhmed yet,
The best house hasn't been
planned,
The highest peak hasn't been
climbed yet,
The mightiest rivers aren't span
ned.
Don't worry and fret, faint-hearted.
The chances have just begun,
For the best jobs haven't been
started,
The best work hasn't been done

MOVEMENT TO ACQUAINT
LAYMEN WITH THE HAND
LING OF A MILITARY RIFLE

Pittsburg, Pa, March IA The
| first regiment of American Riflemen
has been organized in this city. The
movement is forwarded by the Young
| Mems Business Clubs of which there
| is one in most of the large cities of
the country and the sole object is to
acquaint laymen with the handling
of a military rifle. The movement is
said to have originated in Cleveland
and the idea was disseminated from
there, but the Pittsburg regiment is
the first to complete organization.
Col. r. j. keenan, of this city
took up the matter and presented it
to the Young Mems Business Clubs,
| with the result that these bodies
pledged support to it throughout the
country. In this city almost 600 men
have enrolled for the movement. 1t
is not to be uniformed or drilled
| body, according to the promoters.
All expense will be borne by the in
viduals, and the time required for
qualification as member of the or
ganization is not more than one
hour week on rifle range that is
at the disposal of the organization
| Among the members of the local
body are number of National
J Guardsmen, who have been sharp
shooters and first class marksmen for
years. and several retired army Off
GERS who have offered their services
in coaching and instruction with the
military rifle.
1t is planned to have a camp at
the range, which is a few miles from
the city, which will be established
throughout the summer. At this
camp members may go and come as
they desire, being under no rigid
discipline, beyond being required tc
qualify as an expert marksman.
Employers of men DESTROYS of par
ticipating in this movement have ex-
pressed a willingness to give en-
ployes an opportunity to take advan.
tage of the rifle range, and offers OF
assistance from regular service men
have been abundant.
Col. keenan, expresses the opinion
that one million men would be par
ticipating in this training during the
summer, laying a foundation for q
trained citizen soldiery, against
times of need.
The Pittsburg Regiment has been
offered to President Wilson in this
telegram which Col. Keenan, sent to
Washington:
81 am authorized to offer you, in
case Of national need, the services oil
the first battalion of the first regi
ment of American Riflemen. All the
members of the organization are OF
military age, and have pledged them
selves to qualify at once, and at theil
own expense, as marksmen with the
regulation rifle of the United State:
army. If million Americans will
so qualify during the next few
months your plea for national pre-
paredness will, experimenting con
gressional action. have met with g
practical popular response that will
help to insure our country against
enforced participation either in TIL,
present or in any future war.

THE TIDE OF TRAVEL TO
FLORIDIAN RESORTS

In the resorts of Florida on both
the East Coast and the West Coast
and in the interior of the state are
gathered fully 100000 visitors from
other states Of the Union and from
Canada.
Railway and steamship companies
report that the greatest number of
tourists and other visitors to Florida
that have ever been transported by
them have been carried into Florida
this winter.
The travel for the last two weeks
| has been especially heavy, many of
| the popular trains being run in four
section. daily during that period,
and it is thought that the travel from
the north to Florida will continue
very heavy until March Is.
All along the East Coast below ST.
Augustine, the hotels have been I'M
able to provide steering accommoda-
tions for the numerous persons ap-
/ plying, and hundreds of rooms in
private dwellings have been utilized
to accommodate those whom the
hotels were compelled to turn away
for lack of space.
Florida has never before enjoyed
such business prosperity as it now
witnessed throughout the state in
every section of it.
Automobiles by the thousands
from the states to the north of the
Peninsula are carrying their full ca
pacity of tourists over the splendid
roads which the state now possesses,
while houseboats, cruisers and other
motor boats are laden with pas
sengers and traversing every nook
and corner of the states beautiful
and delightful waterways.
Real estate dealers report numer-
Gus sales of lands to actual settlers,
and the entire business atmosphere
of the state is now that of the brist-
ling, busy north and west and east.
There is not a trace of the imam
ana" OF the Spaniards left now in
Florida, and there is not a state in
the Union that can show for this
present decade such a large percent
age of gain in population as can the
State of Florida, which Ponce de
Leon made known to the world.
The stoppage of travel to Europe,
asia and Africa has concentrated in
Florida the birds of passage" and
combined with those who each win
ter seek mild climate, the state is
fairly swarming with visitors who
are greatly enjoying the delights of
the semi-tropical state. The major
ity of the industries of the state were
never so active as now, and the pro-
ductiGns of the state never so diver
sitied as at the present time
TIL soil of the greater part of the
state has proved marvelously fertile,
and the extensive and systematic
drainage operations carried on for so
many years have reached stage
that has proved their immense utility
and have redeemed and made val
liable millions of acres of land use
less for agricultural purposes even
| five years ago.
Florida is making such progress
in agriculture, manufacturing and
| commerce that it is even exceeding
in actual financial results the word
painting and the imagery of the blue
sky artists who twenty years ago
were SO active in it's praises and so
exuberant in their hopes-Cincin-
natl Enquirer.

We gather from the Orlando pa
pers that people are objecting to the
drinking water because of the fact
that "Algea" Is in the lake from
which the water supply is obtained
That looks like a valid objection,
and Algea should either be made to
stay cut of the lake or else be bathed
thoroughly before he goes into it.

The suggestion is made by a Geor-
gia educator that public schools be
keptO pen every day in the year for
an eight-hour period of instruction
and recitation, all lessons being pre-
pared in school hours, the child's
mind thus being left entirely free
from thoughts of tasks during the
time il is outside the school room.
The advantages of such system are
obvious, and the idea is we'll worth
the consideration of educators every
where. The one great flaw in our
educational plan, as we view it, is
the necessity for little children hav-
ing their minds burdened with the
preparation of lessons during the
hours which should be theirs in
which to grow and play.
