TO THE BOY.

TO THE BOY.
: have no wish, my little lad, =
m climb the towering heights tof
fame.
T am content to be your dad s
And share with you each pleasant
game.
T am content to hold your hand
And walk along life's path with
you,
And talk of things we understand.
The birds and tees and SKIES OF
blue.
Though some may seek the smiles Of
kings,
For me your laughter's joy enough;
T have no wish to claim the things
Which lure men into pathways
rough.
Tn happiest when you ana l.,
Unmindful of life's bitter cares
Or follow boyhood's thoroughfaxes.
T GRAY no more of life than thfUe
continuance of such a trust!
your smile, whate'er the morning 10,
Until nv clay returns to dust.
r. but this c~onlradeship may last
Until I end my earthly task
Your hand and mine by love held
fast,
Fame has no charm for which I'd
ask.
I would not trade one day with you
To wear the purple robes of power,
Nor drop your hand from mine to do
Some great deed in a selfish hour.
For YOU have brought me Joy serene
And made my soul supremely glad.
For life rewarded i have been
Twas all worth while to be your
dad.

do not want what is, German or

condition BY wholesale at the Pfuhier
Camp, near Romorantin. The cars, it
was alleged, were destroyed to avoid
transporting them back to the United
States ana because the French Govern

and obtained a denial of the report Be-
fore this came, however the French I'm
der Secretary of State for the sale of
war material assured the commission
that the report had not come from
French Official sources.
Junius G. Adams, executive secretary,
told the correspondent of THE SUN that
all the machines destroyed were beyond
repair and, were burned to obtain the
iron, which would be salvaged. all the
useful parts having been removed. It
was admitted that many complaints had
been received of the intentional destruc-
ton Of cars, but It was Insisted that only
junk had been burned.

Government had forbidden the purchase
