Recollection.
From the Boston Transcrtpf.
God did not make this morning
That I should soon forget
The way the sun lit up the grass
When days come dark and wet.
He did not make the hillside
Reach out into the wind
That should breathe its courage
And leave II all behind.
He did not make this pine grove
That should solely lie
And revel IN Its odors
And lay the memory by.
An orioie, n tanager--
Such Hastings overhead
Some night closed eyes will yield me bach
This lore of gold and red!

Channel Lights.
From, the Edison Monthly.
From Sandy Hook to Rockaway,
When night sits black on the Lower Bay,
Fast thinning lights to east and west,
Past the beacons twain on the Highlands
crest
Waits the battled wrath of a vague un-
rest.
The sea OF a sunless meaning.
But clear TO the heart Of the hostile deep
Where darkness wakes from Its day-lons
sleep,
Burning In reaches the shs dows through
With glintinss of amber and red and clue.
Fair to the verge of the farthest view
The channel lights lie cleaning.
Rocking upon the wayward tide
These teweied lamps of the channel ride.
Yet never from out the guarded way
That leads secure through the Lower Bay
A flash or glimmer is seen to stray,
A spark of their welcome beamins.
Now through the dark a dusky sail
Steals to the main DER the twlnklihe
trail.
Now deserted with a furtive light
transport heads for the outer night.
Threading along the fading sight
From Sandy Hook to Rockaway
When night eits black on the Lower Bay,
However the dark of the war swept sea
With its lurking dread and its mystery,
The channel lights with a lustre free
Guide with a Quenchless beaminE.

FRENCH MINISTER
PAYS TRIBUTE To
NATIONS Chef TAIN

Washington, Feb. 22-The MEM
DRY of Washington was extolled by
M. Jusserand, French ambassador in
an address delivered at commem-
| orative mass meeting held here to-
day under the auspices of the Sons
and Daughters of the American Rev
olution.
Everybody" said NJ. Jusserand.
"knows the unanimity of feelings of
all French people who ever met
Washington; how, during our revo-
luton French citizenship was be-
slowed on him as being 'one of the
benefactors of humanity and how
when he died the French nation went
into mourning, officers wore crepe
and our flags flown at half mast.
"To conduct ones self well is a
harder task in davs of gloom and
anxiety. In both, Washington stands
a model. He knew all the trouble
which may result from delays, mis-
haps and mismanagement, but never
thought of patched up peace"
The ambassador said that Freder-
ick the Great, while entertaining
American evoys sent during the rev.
olution to arrange a commercial
treaty, wrote his brother, Prince
Henry that he intended "to drag out
negotiations so as to take the side
for which fortune shall declare her
self" He declared as a German in
vention the story that Frederick had
presented Washington with a sword
bearing the inscription from the
oldest general in Europe to the greas-
est in the world"
Referring to the present war. VI.
Jusserand declared "the fight is on.
AS we shall no more desist than
Washington did even at his most
perilous hour, the result liz certain.
The work must be done so that it
may not have to be done again.

will not injure US IN the least. Tor
we are now eating much more meat
and fats than we need and we can
easily use corn and other cereals to
a considerable extent in place of
wheat, So, beginning right now. the
food administration asks the Amer
lean people to save more food than
tley have been saving, by faithfully
following the new program outlined
in the home card of 1918.
Not all of our people can eat less
than they now eat, for many are
unable to buy more food than they
actually need. But if all who can
save will save there will be enough
for all of US, our associates in this
war, friendly neutrals and ourselves
Do not hoard food, for the govern
ment will keep in this country enough
of every essential kind of foodstuff
to supply all of the people. The
government has no intention of ever
taking an ounce of homemade pre-
serves of of the home grown pro-
ducts kept in pantry or cellar. Any
one who tells you otherwise is work
ing for the enemy, either intention
ally or unintentionaliy.

PLAYING SCHEDULE
OF THE SOUT HERN
NOT READY YE 7

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 22-Considera
ton of the proposed playing sched-
ule of the 1918 season was delayed
at the opening session of the an
nual spring meeting of the Southern
Association of Baseball Clubs here
today by I, the absence of President
Robert Allen, of the Little Rock
club. Only routine details We're
taken up at the morning meeting.
Some of the club owners today ex-
pressed dissatisfaction with the pro-
posed schedule and a lively argu-
ment over changes which will be de-
manded was expected at the after
noon session It was stated the
schedule hardly would be completed
before tonight.
A prosperous season for a majority
of the clubs was predicted by Pres
ident Heineman, of the New Orleans
club and Frank of Atlanta. The
great influx of population to most of
the southern cities because of the
army camps was bound to materially
increase the attendance, it was
stated.

with the regular monthly meeting of
the Parent-Teachers Association.
Community singing, led by the High
School Glee Club, formed a large
was very prettily executed. The
girls, each with a small American
flag, knelt and formed a double line
after much beautiful manoeuvering
about the stage. The tableau, a py-
ramid of seven girls in appropriate
costumes, was probably the mast eff
fective of the numbers. Some of the
Allies were represented as seeing
afar off. dimly but surely, the Free
dom and Liberty for all of them are
fighting.
One of the principal features of
the evening was the patriotic address
by Judge A. C. Blount. He said that
the definition of patriotism was not
confined to any certain boundary,
and illustrative of the point he show
ed the loyalty of Germany to her
"Fatherland" as one good point
amidst her barbarism and gave
clearer definition of patriotism,
thoughts of which are exemplified in
all our national songs.

2. Community singing.
3. Flag drill.
