Heart Beats

To bury the Past
And shut out ..
The treacherous Future

Or times to come.
The Past .

A.spell to be forgotten
Then resolved
To bury it deep
Bury it deep
And forget.
My doors were barred
To earthly pests
Visitors in the flesh

Were excluded
Who might bring Phantoms
From the tomb
Of my most reckless age.
Yet
Despite all precautions

With bars and bolts
And resolutions
Great congregations
Thronged my frail
Thought chambers
And thousand vivid memories
Terrorized my soul.
The Past
With all its fight
And fire
And foolish notions
Recklessness and restless
Wild desire
Storm troops of troubles
Charged
And broke the line
OF self defense
Reinforced by throngs
OF vain regrets
Until MY head
Whirled round and round
In chaos
Frantically struggling
For some sure way out.

Into the Future
For solace and new hope

On Genius.

Genius gets the worlds praise
because its work is a tangible prod
uct, to be bought, or to be had for
nothing. 1t brides the common
voice to praise it by presents OF
speeches, poems, statues, pictures,
or whatever it can please with.
Character evolves its best products

you, it takes a great deal more to
feed a family for 80 years than to
make a holiday feast for our neigh

Needs Advice.

NCCuS fNuNiSC.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
I'm writing to you for advice. Is
1t right to accept gifts from a boy
friend when you are not engaged to
him? Is IL all right for a boy to
kiss you when leaving after a show
or dance? l have often wondered IL
this was right, and II l have boy
friends come from out of town Is 1t
all right for them to stay at my
home all night or for a day or two?
Is 1t wrong for girls and boys to
dance on Sunday when they are
spending the evening at my home?
] go to dances, and Is 1t wrong for
me to dance with boys that / do not
know II they can dance well and
they look nice on the floor? l am
Is. Should / go with boy friend
more than once a month?
Hoping to see my answer soon In
the advice to Lovelorn."
A DANCER.
inexpensive gifts may be ex-
changed between unengaged young
men and women with propriety. but
kisses, no. A kiss seems harmless
in itself, but 1t leads to further lib
critics ON the part of the young man;
it deadens a girls finer sensibilities:
1t cheapens her In her own and 9TH
ers' eyes. Did you ever tear open a
rosebud, pulling off one petal after
another, until only the stem and
center remained? That is the pic
ture that comes into my mind when
| think Of girl allowing one liberty
after another to the young men as
sociates. A sweet petal'is given here
and taken there, until finally all the
perfume and all the color are gone.
Your boy friends who come out
from town should by no means re-
main at your home unless in case of
a real emergency. Your mother
ought to be able to advise you on
this point. 1t isn't so much the
dancing on Sunday that is wrong
as it is the crowds who dance ON
Sunday.

SURVEYS WANTED

Now that the eyes of America are
turned on Alaska, and Southeastern
Alaska in particular, for paper, every
thing possible should be done by the
territory and the federal government
to furnish prospective investors with
the information which will induce
them to settle, build factories and
establish large logging camps.
Nothing in the way of industry
means more to every town in South
eastern Alaska now than the devel
opment of the paper industry. With
it will come workers homes, new
cities and larger cities, bringing in
their wake the means of livelihood
for thousands of people. This will
come in time, but it can be made to
come almost Immediately by some
good systematic work.
Every piece Of timber land in
Southeastern Alaska should be sur
veyed, cruised and plated, and every
stream in it should be surveyed, as
to the waterpower If such streams
we're surveyed and all the timber
plated and cruised, it would be an
easy matter to furnish prospective
investors with the information which
would bring them to the country.
Everyone in Southeastern Alaska
knows that it has wonderful power
sites that would furnish sufficient
electricity for all the paper mills that
could be built, as we'll as for smelters
using the new Swedish process OF
electricity, but the investors don't
know that.
Therefore, as it would be to the in
terest Of all the country, city councils
commercial bodies and citizens in a
private capacity should communicate
with Delegate George Grigsby, ask
him to introduce a bill appropriating
not less than 100000 to have a
thorough and complete survey made
of all the waterways in the South
eastern part of the territory. Such
an appropriation would be a good in
vestment for Uncle Sam, for that is
one on which he would get good in
terest on his money.-Ketchika1

THE JOYS OF AN EDITOR

One half Of the world doesn't know
how the other half lives, but the
chances are they don't care a hang,
anyway. There are tricks in all
trades but ours, and as result the
life of a country editor is just one
glad sweet song from early morn till
deWy eve. The chances are that al
most every man in our town envies
the editor the easy life he has and
the joys of living which are his at all
times and places. Nobody expects
the editor to work, and ANYBODY
could get out a (better) paper in our
town, and we ought to be happy
though poor and are-bOth. But,
once in a while comes day when all
does not go merry as a marriage bell
