OTHERS"

Lord help me live from day TO day
In such a seif-forgetful way
That even when kneel to pray,
My prayer shall be for-OTHERS.
Help me in all the work i do
To ever be sincere and true
And know that all I'd do for you,
Must needs be done for--OTHERS
Let SELF be crucified and slain,
And buried deep and all in vain
May efforts be to rise again,
Unless to live foryoTHERs.
And when my Xbrk on earth is done,
And my neN Dirk in Heavens begun,
May l forget the crown I've won.
While thinking still of-oTHERs.
Others Lord, yes others, Z
Let this my m@to be,
Help me to liTe for others,
That NAV &c IKE Thee.

Holland-American Liner Unable to

The government has definitely refused
license for bunker coal to the Holland

President Tucker said the executive
committee had refrained from recon-
mending to the Commissioners the
streets in the northeast that should be
paved because of the Borland amend
ment requiring property owners to pay
one-half the cost, and on his motion
the association adopted resolution
favoring the repeal of that amend

eral items in the appropriation bill for
next year, among them being one for
grading New York avenue from Florida

To Reduce Living Cost.

DIR. L. D. Walter inaugurated move
having in view an increase of the sup
ply of pork in the local market in an
effort to reduce the high cost of living.
He said:
You all probably we'll know that
pork products that were purchased at
two pounds for a quarter not many
years ago are now selling all the way
from quarter to so cents pound.
The price of such products can be re-
duced by reducing the price of feed for
hogs. Let the District Commissioners
adopt a regulation that will permit the
hauling of garbage to farms, under
proper regulation. and farmers in near
by Maryland and Virginia will be able
to add millions of pounds of meat to
the supply for local consumption.
II have been told that hog raiser In
nearby Maryland says it is possible for
him to produce from 1000 to 5000
pounds of pork a year on one barrel
of garbage day, the amount of meat
depending upon the quality of the gar
bage.
