Don't Drift
j. f. B., IN Good Words.

J. f.. B., in Good Words
Oh why should we pull against the stream
So easy to drift with the tide
The spring of the stream may be but dream
Where broken illusions abide.
But the tide flows to the blue seas deep
With it's storms and it's days of calm,
Where the song of the may rock us to sleep.
And the hearts may find their balm.
1t may tempting, bated snare,
So easy to fall for indeed,
When souls weary and filed with despair,
And rest is the one thing need.
Perhaps we shall find there's naught at the source,
But how shall we know it for
Unlese we keep pulling against the
Of the stream and stoutly endure2
The things that are gained without fight
We never can fully enjoy
What easily takes quickly flight
Like the tov of rich mans boy.
But the things fight our best to win,
Are the things that remain to the last
We've bought them with sweat in the battle din
They credit marks of the past.
And if We seek them and if we try,
The Lord has taught we shall find,
He meant not what gold or glitter could buy
But peace in the heart and mind
The peace and content can only gain
by accomplishing things worth while,
And cen though the efforts may be in vain
Keep pulling up stream with smile?

ed Through Snow
Storms,

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.I
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Thousands
of miles of storm swept tracks today
hanlpered the work. of smashing
freight jams in the east. Heavy snow
tested its strength against Director
General McAdoo's order to clear
tracks for coal shipments. At most
points the government engines were
victorious. Long trains of heavily
laden coal cars are running into Jer-
sey terminals today with fuel for
New England and for ships lying idle
in American ports.
Floats and barges are being used
to expedite shipments into New York
and passenger traffic is yielding to
coal.
Stacker cars" and locomotives
sidetracked or held indefinitely in
yards awaiting unloading or repairs
are being drafted into continuous
service. Movement OF motive power
from the south and west into the
congested eastern territory continues.
The railway wage question was
slated for attention today when
brotherhood chiefs will confer with
McAdoo. A tentative schedule of in
creases has been prepared for Nc
Adoo by the United States board of
