A Friend Personifed

Last Sunday was Sunday that will. long
be remembered by the intra- mural inmates
who attended Chapel.
! Through the Courtesy of Rev. G.. E.
Benson, our Chaplain, we were permitted
to enjoy three vocal selections by choir of
thirty voices from the Norwegian Emmanuel
Church of St. Paul, under the leadership of
Professor Anderson.
A solo by Professor Anderson was out of
the ordinary and left nothing to be desired
along these lines.
A fitting climax to this program was the
introduction of Chas. Brandon Booth, son
of Mrs. Maud Ballington Booth-"The
Little Mother" Mr.. Booth in brief, per-
spicuous manner, did not waste any time
on preliminaries, but went into his subject
in way that gained for him the attention
of his critical audience; straight from the
shoulder, he hewed away, letting the chips
lay wherever they fell, with mode and
style of speaking that was not assumed. and
leLt uO uOuUl III Tic luAuuS VI tuOS0 WIZ
were listening as TO their meaning.
His methods are the height of perfection
and it is pleasure and inspiration to listen
to such one, who is sincere and lives up
to the teachings of his mother, who by her
acts of the past twenty three years needs no
commentator from US, as her services
speak for themselves.
1t is very seldom that speaker will
travel thousand miles in order to address
an audience of this description, but Mr..
Booth demonstrated to our satisfaction,
that, had the distance been twice that far
he would have been on hand to greet us.
His method and mode is one that will
help any man, who once hears him. And
it is predicted that much good will come
from his visit. His discourse was interspers-
ed with stories and witty sayings that hit
the spot, and the closing story of "The
Little Cross" carried sermon in itself.

Irish Love Poem
The Flower of Finae

Bright red is the sun on the waves of Tough
Sheelin,
A cool gentle breeze from the mountain is
stealing,
While fair round its islets the small ripples
play,
But fairer than all is the Flower of Finae.
Her hair is like night, and her eyes like
gray morning,
She trips on the heather as if its touch
scorning,
Yet her heart and her lips are as mild as
May day,
Sweet Ely MacMahon, the Flower of Fanae.
But who down the hillside than red deer
runs Aeeteri
And who on the lakeside is fastening to
greet her?
Who but Fergus O'Farrel, the fiery and
gay,
The darling and pride of the Flower of Finae.
One kiss and one clasp, and one wild look
of gladness;
All! why do they change on a sudden to
sadness
He has told his hard fortune, no more he
can stay,
He must leave his poor Ely to pine at Finae.
For Fergus O'Farrel was true to his SIRE
land,
And the dark hand of tyranny drove him
from Ireland;
He Joined the Brigade in the wars far away,
But he vows he'll come back to the Flower
of Finae.
He fought at Cremona-she hears of his
story:
He fought at Cassano-she's proud of hi.
glory,
Yet sadly she sings ''Shule Aroon'' all the
day,
ooh, come, come, my darling, come home
to Finae.''
Eight long years have pass'd till she's nigh
broken-hearted,
Her reel, and her rock, and her fax, she
has parted;
She sails with the Wild Geese to Flanders
away,
And leaves her sad parents alone in Finae.
Lord Clare on the field of Families is
charging
Before him the Sassenach squadrons enlarg-
Behind him the Cravats their sections dis
play
Behind him rides Fergus and shouts fol-
Finae.
On the slopes of La Judoigne the French
men are flying,
Lord Clare and his squadrons the foe still
defying,
Outnumbered, and wounded, retreat in array,
And bleeding rides Fergus and thinks Of
Finae.
In the cloisters of Ypres banner is sway
ing,
And by it apale weeping maiden is praying,
The flags the sole trophy of Families fray,
This nun is poor Ely, the Flower of Finae

The Patrol

Five men over the parapet, with a one-star
loot in charge,
Stumbling along through the litter and muck
and cursing blind and large,
Hooking their gear in the clutching wire as
they wriggle through the gap, i
For an hours patrol in No-Man' s-Land,
and take what chance may hap.
Over the sodden parapet and through the
rusty wire,
Out of touch with all good things, fellow
ship, light and fire;
Every Gathering bully-tin Judas as we pass,
At every star-shell, face to earth upon the
sodden grass.
From Misery Farm to Seven Trees it's safe
enough to 60,
But it's belly-crawl down Dead Mans
Ditch, half choked with grimy snow.
When back beside the grass-grown road!-
Watch Quit They've got it sell
To where B Company's listening post lies
shivering in the wet.

Except the flares and the riAe-Aash and the

And 1 have failed at many task, but this
one thing I've learned:
It's little things make Paradise-like three
hours doss we'll earned,
A fire of coke in battered pail, and q
gulp of ration rum,
Or gobbled meal of bully and mud, with
the guns for moment dumb.
And horrors not from terrible things
men torn to rags by shell,
And the whole trench swimming in blood
and slush, like butchers shop in hell;
It's silence and night and the smell of tine
dead that shake a man to the soul,
From Misery Farm to Dead Mans Ditch
on emil report" patrol.
Five men back to the trench again, with a
one-star loot in charge.
Stumbling over the rusty tins and cursing
blind and large.

Leaves From Orr Posts.
True Manhood

1t is not always the coat that tells,
Nor the collar your friend may wear;
1t is not only the shine of his shoe,
Nor the finished touch of his hair.
1t is not all in silken hat,
Nor the fitting neat of his gloves;
1t is not merely his cultured air,
Nor the circle in which he moves.
All, no! after all, tbs the man himself,
As he stands with his God alone;
, It's the heart that beats beneath the coat,
The life that points to the throne.
The eye that cheers with its kindly glance,
IT'S the arm around brother cast;
The hand that points to hope beyond
IT'S love that endures to the last.

Work. the Reward of Work

When have touched the end of days
And waved farewell to earthly ways,
have one thing to ask of him
Who leads the tolls of Seraphim-
The gift of work-more work to DO
To let his glory glimmer through.
For we'll know. that in the Lord
More work will be our works reward.
Oh, may the Master Artist say:
''He touched one heart upon the way,
So give some further work to him;
But he must draw that line less dim
This time must not so bungle there,
But give his sketch nobler air.
He must put action in that curve;
Give to this feature more reserve;
Light it with touches more divine,
And let the inner spirit shine.
His early colors were too thin;
Now he must dash the beauty in
With holder stroke This is the plal
More work: by work we build the man

excellent acting was beyond criticism. The

That's All

When persons just tired of being tired;
When they don't even care if they get fired;
When they take short cuts in, and slight

When the care of their personal appearance

They're sick, that's all, just sick.
When they 60 through their duties all day

Listless, careless and as spiritless as bean,
When they voice their complaints before the
whole crowd,
When they're touchy, spit6rey and look
at you out loud
They're sick, that's all, Just sick.
If you have any of these symptoms and want
sure cure,
Go take a long walk by yourself on a
Find fault with yourself as much as you can,
If that doesn't work, here's another plan;
If when you get back you are still in haze,
Quit your job or lay off for few days;
Take note of all the people, not as fortunate
as you,
Blind, crippled, poor and there are q ute
a few,
Then if you are not out of that rut you
were in,
And are not ready to cooperate with
your fellow men,
If your smiles are not spontaneous and
without imposition
Hasten away and see the physician
Because you're sick, that's all, just sick.
