DID YOU EVER

Did you ever wish to see beyond
The stars that shine so bright?
To hold the fragrance Of a flower,
The dew exhales at night?
Did you ever watch little bud,
As IL opened, day by day,
And wondorh. when you saw II droop
And fade and pass away?
Did you ever watch a tree in Spring,
Put on its leaves and bOughs,
And hear IL SILVER in the breeze.
And i'm the stOrm-wind thought
How restful was its shade 90 ala
When summer suns were here
But when the frost OF autumn came,
Its leaves were brown and sere.
Did YOU ever watch a little child,
The idol Of all hearts.
So carefully twas shielded that
You did not fear deaths darts;
But an at once YOU realize.
How slender was your hold.
And It quickly passed away from all,
Just like a tale that's told2
Did YOU ever turn aside TO pray,
I'm agony, grow pale.
When prayer seemed not 20 rise at all,
And am things seemed TO fail
Because the one you loved so we'll
Was writing In deaths hand
And God, He seemed so far away
You could not understand?
MID vou ovar flllv roalizc
The fraility Of carth's ties.
That every loved thing w adore,
Just stays a while. then dies?
We cannot claim a bud or flower,
There's nothing that we own;
We love. we pray, we suffer on,
And then our life is done.

 It is declared illegal to send any mail matter into Rhode Island con- tronage or sale. Official notice has been received that the entire state comes within the federal law, through ruling made by Herbert A. Rice. attorney general of the state. AL though only a few towns voted mo- license. MT. Rice has ruled that the solicitation of liquors, at any place except the particular establishment Rhode Island law. Section 63 of chapter 123 of the general laws, upon which the state attorney general based his opinion. is as follows:
 Every person who shall personally or through agent solicit any order for the sale of any ale, wine, rum or other strong or malt liquors, or any mixed liquors, a part of which is ale. wine, rum or other strong or malt li quors except at the particular loca- tions where persons are authorized by license to sell the same, either at wholesale or retail shall be fined s2o with all costs of prosecution and con- viction, and be imprisoned in the county ail for 10 days"
 When the department asked Mir Rice about the law relating to solici
 
 answer to a further request stated that in his opinion the law meant that solicitation was prohibited in all mo- license places, and at every place in a license community except at the particular establishments which held licenses to sell intoxicating liquors.
 The post office department has, therefore, construed the law as pro hibiting the general solicitation of li- quor patronage and sale and has des- ignated Rhode Island as one of the so-called "bone-dry" states in so far as the new federal law concerning ad- vertising and mails, is concerned.
 Under the new federal law which became operative last Sunday, no let ter, postal card, circular newspaper. pamphlet, or publication of any kind, containing liquor advertiseme or solicitation for orders for liquors. shall be deposited in or carried by the United States mails in the territory affected, nor shall they be delivered by any letter carrier. The penalties for violation of the law are heavy. including a fine of S1,000 or six months imprisonment. or both.
 The ruling which Attorney General Rice has given to the post office de- partment concerning solicitation in Rhode Island, explains why the fed eral government has designated this state az one of the wholly dry terri tories, although only a small number of it's towns have voted no-1icense.
 When the section of the Rhode Isl- and law dealing with solicitation was considered by the federal authorities. Mir. Rice was asked if the words particular locations" referred to the municipalities. or to the exact loca- tion of the license. He replied that called upon to rule on that question, but that in his opinion the words re- fer to the exact location of the license and not to the municipality.
