Then, prompted by the spirit men call

When first the intrepid friars. a-thirst for

Upheld on San Diegan hills the cross
To California, the laughter-land;
And in the book found this legend told
And briefly, as BELTS simple tale:
Chief builder of their first and lowly fame,

Named Urselino kinless, and, like One,
A carpenter Cne night the Indians came,
Set flame to hut and church, and killed a
friar.
Now Urselino lay too i'll to rise,
Whom, helpless there, the dusky warriors
pinned
To that sad couch with arrows, ere the
day
Broke, and the Spanish soldiers came:
lis writ
That as the weapons paRg he cried
Alas
die May God forgive you, Indians !
And die he did, after lapse of days,
In number few, but ah how long in pain
But ere he found, this humble man and
great,
The final sleep, still loving he devised
That his poor savings, boarded for old age
In that old home he never was to see,
Should go to these same men that gave
him death
Then Urselino praised his God, and slept.
Upon the darkness dreadful 18th ou

Upon the midnight given to revenge.

BENEFITS OF BOYS
AND GIRLS CLUB WORK
Miss BOggess Cites Many Benefits
Of This Movement.

l wish to take this opp ortunlty IN
expressing to the Fiscal Court,
Miss Longest, Lowell Brothers and
many other good people my heart
felt thanks for help and support
in the home work in Muhlenberg
County. May God bless the effort
that has been put forth.
There is nothing like country life
or being situated so one can have
poultry, fruits, vegetables and all
things which go to make pure food,
good health and happy home.
There is peculiar delight in see
ing and having all these things
around US and it is the utilizing all
Of these things that enables a family
to fully appreciate the sentiment of
vHome Sweet Home"
A home like this is ideal, the
mother and daughter living as
chummy as school girls.
The girl has no thought of taking
up life in the city, but is planning
a constructive future on the farm.
Many people, however, do not
appreciate what Uncle Sam is do
ing for their girls and boys along a
practical education line. They will
say to me: III think all of this new
move the government has made is
just an extra expense for the State
and county for nothing" Appar-
emily they have not thought how
much more unframed girls and boys
cost, not only in dollars and cents,
but also in the position of life they
shall occupy for which one can
make no definite calculation.
Work might brown their skins
and soil their hands, but it would
help them to do something and to
know something. 1t would aid the
family pocketbook and help the
family character.
A country home, be it ever so
plain, with a father and mother of
sense and gentle culture, Is natures
university, and is more richly en-
dowed for the training of youth
than Yale or Harvard.
Uncle Sam makes an urgent ap-
peal to all parents to encourage
their children in the constructive
work they are undertaking in the
clubs, and | beg of the merchants,
bankers, ministers, doctors and the
good club women who stand for
the improvement of the home life
of Muhlenberg county in better
health and happiness, for their
hearty cooperation, which l feel
will be gladly extended another
year.
We want the best of results in as
many homes as we can leach, and
feel the course agents are urged to
t Ike at Peabody college in January
and February will furnish 1nstruc-
ton IN exactly those things which
are really worth while.
Best wishes to each club and
member. My heart is with the dear
girls and boys in the work.
