THE FIRING LINE

For glory? for good? For fortune
or fame?
Why, he for the front when the bat
tie is on!
Leave the rear to the dolt, the lazy,
the lame;
Go forward as ever the valiant have
gone;
Whether city or field, whether noun
tain or mine,
Go forward, right on the Firing Line.
Whether newsboy or plowboy, cow
boy or clerk,
Fight forward, be ready, be steady,
be first;
Be fairest, be bravest, be best at
work;
Exalt and be glad; dare to hunger,
to thirst,
AS David, as Alfred-Let dogs sulk
and whine
There is room but for men on the
Firing Line.
Aye, the place to fight and the place
to fall
AS fall we must, all in Gods good
1t is where the manifest man the wall,
Where boys are as men in their
PRIDE and prime.
Where glory CLEANS brightest; where
!; brightest eyes shine,
Far out on the roaring red Firing
Line.

REPAIR FARM MACHINERY

Now is a good time to repair the
farm machinery, so as to have it in
readiness for next spring and sum-
mer. Better results are usually Sc
cured when the spring work and har-
vesting is done promptly and it saves
labor. The day or more spent in.
waiting for extras or in having a ma
chine repaired when it should be in
use causes considerable loss in crop
as we'll as time. H..

SOME READABLE VERSE
ROOFS


The road is wide and the stars are out
and the breath Of the night is sweet,
And this is the time when wanderlust
should seize upon my feet.
But Pm glad to turn from the open
road and the starlight in my face,
And to leave the splendor of out-of-
doors for a human dwelling place.
l have never seen a vagabond who
really liked to roam 81.
All up and down the streets of the
world and not to have home: g.
The tramp who slept in your barn
last night and left at break of day
Will wander only until he finds an
other place to stay.
A gypsy man will sleep in his cart
with canvas overhead;
Or else he'll 90 into his tent when it
is time for bed.
He'll sit on the grass and take his
ease so long as the sun is high,
But when it is dark he wants a roof
to keep away the sky.
If you call a gypsy a vagabond, l
think you do him wrong,
For he never goes a-traveling but he
takes his home along,
And the only reason road is good,
as every wanderer knows,
Is Just because of the homes, the
homes, the homes to which it goes.
They say that life is a highway and
its milestones are the years,
And now and then there's tollgate
where you buy your way with tears.
It's a rough road and a steep road,
and it stretches broad and far,
But at last it leads to a golden Town
where golden Houses are.
