A VERNAL MORNING.

7 have in mind a morn in May
/ Fit for a rhymers holiday;
A morning with no cloud to 1nar
A climbing hill s'cpe near ard far;
One sweet smile with the ailLrins spell
OF dawn distilled EydromeI
On such morn, I'll take my scrip
And staff, and for companionship
TIL have a brook of friendly tone
Until l wish to be alone;
Yet solitude where may one find
When there is company in the wind,
In the clear piping of the quail
In whispering grass or galingale.
Or any living, growing thing.
In this serene high tide of Spring.
Then, latterIy, a path I'll choose
Still dedicated to the dews
That CLINT on leaf and thin rush blade
Like tiny globules cut in jade.
And so at last, for my reward
I'll find a strip of sunny sward
Within glade deep hidden where
A boulder offers me chair;
And there I'll sit and wait for Pan,
With all his coven footed clan,
To come and laugh and shout and sing.
And dance about me in a ring.
Ay there I'll rest, a rover free
And dream I'm back in Already.

Eject Idea Found Successful
In Larger Cities.

i. H. C. Petersen's Sons company
Of Davenport this week inaugurated
in the tri-cities the first social well
fare department for its employees,
following the policy which recently
has been adopted by the big depart
ment stores and other large cor
porations in the larger cities Of the
country.
The idea Of the department Is to
make the store the business home
of the employees and to give them
such personal attention and help as
will benefit them individually as
well as to increase the efficiency Of
the large corps Of clerks and other
employees.
The store has been exceedingly
fortunate in obtaining the services
of Mrs. E<W. Keller, GOT West Sew
enteenth street, Davenport, to d.
rect the. social welfare work. Mrs.
Keller, a native of Davenport, for
merly Miss Anna Mann, was at one
time teacher at Taylor school. old
No. II, and more recently has been
soloist and choir director for the
Calvary Baptist church.
Mrs. Keller shows high enthu-
siasm over the prospects Of develop
ing the department to bring about
the results that are being obtained
in the bigger cities in the same line
She prepared for welfare work in
one of the larger cities, visiting the

I'VE have planned big things
