COURAGE
By Edgar A. Guest.

You'll find it in the ,ullabies that pa
ticnt mothers sing,
It's in the humble cottage where the
shouts of children RIG
1t fills thew cary toiler's breast, it
lights the pillow boys eye,
It's like the beauty of the sun, the
glory of the sky;
1t glows above the mountain top, IT
rides the stormy sea,
It's in the dream of every man who
fights for joys to be.
You read it in the faces of the toilers
homeward bound;
1t spurs the sturdy pioneer who clears
a patch of ground
II stands beside awhirring lathe and
delves within mine,
1t swings the axe in forests wild anc
fells the mighty pine;
It's stamped on every mothers face
who brings a babe to birth;
1t is the seed of every good that bios
some on the earth.
l. It's not alone in facing death, when
that grim duty asks;
It's facing life from day to day with
all its dreary tasks;
It's keeping faith with those you
love, it's standing firm and true
And bearing all life's bitterness fol
those who trust in you;
It's clinging to your glorious dreams
when doubts and grief assail,
It's trying for a splendid goal anc
| smiling though you fail.
The soldier shares it with his king
the toiler with his chief;
The self-same courage all must owr
who feel the touch of grief,
Rich towards shall be towards still
despite their sums of gold,
For courage is the gift of God anc
can't be bought and sold.
And all who tread the path of life
and scorn to stoop to sin
Have earned the glory of the great
for courage makes them kin.

against eveil but impel to good.
Tomorrow's subject is: God, our
Heavenly Father" Every merhc,

Prof. Robert D. Malone, of Carson
Newman College, is stopping in the
city en- route to johnson City. Prof.
Malone has been favorably spoken of
for the superintendency of our City
Schools for another year; but, since
he has been offered positions at the
head of high schools both in Louis
vile and Birmingham, it is doubtful
if he could be secured for the place
here. Mr.. Malone is Greene coun-
ty boy, and a great booster for
Greeneville and the public schools.
We are glad that he is making good.

Among those to carry out the peace treaty are the reparations military, naval, air financial and economic commissions the international high court and military tribunals to fix responsibilities and a series of bodies for the control of in- ternational rivers
 Certain problems are left for solu- tion between the allied and associated powers, notably details of the disposi- tion of the German fleet and cables, the former German colonies, and the values paid in reparation. Certain other prob- lems such as the laws of the air and the opium, arms and liquor traffic are either agreed to in detail or set for early international action

Members resorting to war in disregard ol the covenant will immediately be de- barred from all intercourse with other members.
