SORROW
Written for The Evening Journal
By JAMES T. CRoZIER-

II sorrow, my friend. comes. into your
home.
Try to look upon it for the best,
To the rich and the poor, It some day
will come,
And is always a terrible test
To part with one who for years and
years,
Has been with us night and day,
It is natural, / know, and will bring
tears,
But God knows best and it is His WILL
And with it, shall come much pain,
But If we are faithful and wait until
Some sweet day, wen meet them
again
No good-byes ever are said up there,
And all through eternity,
We shall be with Jesus in safety
where,
With our loved ones, shall happy be.
Gods ways are not ours, that is surely
true.
And life is uncertain, we know,
Death is sure to come, friend, to me
and you,
But II right, we know where we
shall go.
II we accept Jesus and trust in HIS
word,
While we have time here 10 prepare.
Some TIME we will be with our blessed
Lord,
And happiness with Him shall share.
A.
God bless what I'm writing to some
poor soul,
Who is living today without Him,
For lie gave HIS dear life. to make all
such whole,
And TO cleanse them from every sin.
These words / write, with a prayer
from me,
That they may reach some poor
heart,
Help them to find Jesus and happy be.
And for Heaven have made a start.

WHITMAN TALKS
Executive BlameS Men Conducting
 Sports Rather Than Pugidsts in His Stand For Repeal of Frawley Law.

New York, Feb. 3.-Governor Whit man, while in this city yesterday, was asked to express his opinion on the boxing situation. The import of the governors comment, which may be taken as at least in part the reason for his move to have the Frawley law repealed, was that he had no objection to boxing but to the men who have been conducting the game. The gov ernor said: G3#
 s'The boxing situation has not been what 1t should have been for a y ar. It is my personal opinion that the fault has not been so much with those who have been in the ring as those who have been sitting in chairs. To my mind there has been more brur tality in the chairs than in the ring. While there may be some decent peo-, pie attending the bouts at present I believe the majority are not In the capital the other night a boy was killed and the entire show was per- mitted to go on. I am not against boxing, but I am certainly against exhibitions of that kind. I have made my recommendaeipn and it is up to the legislature to' take the course 1t sees f1t.''
 Asked what he thought of the at- tempt to put into effect legalized bet ting on the race tracks by means of pari-mutuel system, the governor said: r
 "I cannot understand the talk about that in view of the fact that gambling IS prohibited by our constitution, md any bill such as the suggested oie would be unconstitutional Tn order to have it legalized there would nave to be a special amendment, which would have to go before the people,"

New Brunswick, Feb. 3.-The Rut- gers football season of 1917 has been underwritten by Leonor F. Loree, president of the Delaware & Hudson railroad, and John W. Mettler, presi- dent of the 1nterwoven Hosiery com- pany, for $6,000. This is somewhat less than the estimated receipts for the season.
 There will be no increase in the budget for 1917 over that of the pre- vious season. In past years it has been impossible to raise such a sum
