A TIMELY POEM

The following poem, written by a
British soldier in Flanders, and pub

thousands Of men. It wa srecently re-

request that its readers will pass it
On to some soldier or sailor in whom
they are interested.
CHRIST IN FLANDERS.
We had forgotten You-or very near
ly-
You did not seem TO touch us very
nearly;
OF course we thought about You
now and then.
Especially in any time of trouble,
We knew that You were good in time
of trouble,
But we are very ordinary men.
And all the while, in street or lane or
by-way,
You walked among us and we did
not see;
Your feet were bleeding as You walk
ed our pavements;
How did we miss Your footprints on
our pavements?
Can there be other folks as blind
as we?
Now we remember over here in
Flanders
ct isn't strange to think of You in
Flanders-l
This hideous warfare seems to make
things clear;
We never thought about You much in
England,
But now that we are far away from
England, -
We have no doubt-we know that
You are here
You helped us pass the jest along the
trenches
(Where, in cold blood, we waited in
the trenches)
You touched its ribaldry and made
it fine.
You stood beside us in our pain and
weakness;
We're glad to think You understand
our weakness
Somehow it seems to help us not
to whine
We think about You kneeling in the
garden
Oh, God! The agony of that dread
garden.
We know You prayed for us upon
the cross;
If anything could make us glad to
bear it
'Twould be the knowledge that You
willed to bear it,
Pain, death--the uttermost of hui
man loss.
Though we forgot You-You will not
forget US
We feel so sure that You will not for
get us
But stay with us until this dream
is past.
And so we ask for courage, strength
and pardon
Especially. l think, we ask for par
DON
And that You'll stand beside rs to

"You think that you stand A No. l

out of the running" So says Frank
Case, the cashier of the First National
Bank of which Edward Manley is
president.
II refuse to discuss any lady with

Miss Manley," answers Morgan Green,
the teller, turning away from the
threatening countenance of the
cashier.
Morgan Green, teller, and Frank
Case, cashier, are both in love with
Lillian, the daughter of the bank
president, Edward Manley. She loves
Morgan and promises to marry MN,
and while Manley is in favor OF him,
still he counsels them to wait until
Morgan has better position. Frank
thinks there is a chance for INN. See

The Need of Music For the Public Schools

(Friends Of Miss Vera Keller, who
graduates from Converse College,
Spartanburg, S. c., in June, will read
with much interest the following arti-
Gle, IN a recent issue of the Concept,
published monthly by the Carlisle and
Philosophian Literary Societies of the

When we stop to consider how the
study Of good music, the appreciation
of good music, broadens the mind and
enables person to get more out of
life than he or she ordinarily could,
it seems pity that more people,
children especially, who are to be
moulders of the coming generation,
are not able to have some musical
advantage. Nowadays. when music
has such a hold on the public, and
America especially has in her heart
the seed of music to keep alive, it
seems necessary to let the children
share in the work and thereby be
benefited.
