HE WAS A DECENT GUY.
By Edgar A. Guest.


I'd rather have It said of me,
When this old journeys through,
That on my way I'd tried tobe,
A friend to all | knew,
Than have it said ! gathered gold
And then have voices fall
Because they knew when that was told
They'd really said 1t all.
I'll gladly pass along my way,
When comes my time 10 die,
If all who knew me here shall say:
HE was decent guyg'
I've heard men speak beside their
dead,
I've stood In many room
And noted what is often said,
BY mourners in the gloom.
I've heard high sounding words Of
grief
From many a polished tongue,
And stammered phrases of belief
Which from the heart were wrung.
And shall gladly journey on
To where mems spirits fly,
II some shall say when ! am gone:
He was decent guyw
It's hard to think up things to say
When death is at the door,
And speechless many turn away
Whose tongues were glib before.
Yet in the homely words Of men
True meaning may be found,
While phrases which the master pen
May be but empty sound.
SO / shall feel my life worth while
If friends shall testify
And say Of me in simple style:
He was a decent guyr'

CTS go at politics like the American tank corps goes at the German army on the treat-em rough principle, sa!d Daly. Flights are not common, be- cause nine-tenths of the men in that country will fight at the drop of the hat, anyway, and everybody lays off starting something. But when they do fight, they do it earnestly.
 At the recent election, for in- stance, one of the candidates in the Far Northern districts was shot twice the day before election. They had to carry him about 300 miles or so on a sled to get doctor. Naturally every body expected he would die, and what was the use of voting for a dead man" l am happy to say, however that tho candidate recovered. When an Alas kan does anything he doesn't go about it in a half-hearted way. He plays the game for all it is worth"
 Daily says that Alaska's population has declined rapidly since the United States entered the war. The principal industries just now, he said, are cop per mining and fishing. Gold mining is going out of fashion in the North it costs. too much to operate. He be- lieves that several pulp mills may he erected in the near future in South eastern Alaska.

IN THE CORN FIELD.

ATOW little William, who was hid
" den in the long grass beside the
lowest rail, thought it was funny
sight to see those two friends Peter
Rabbit and Jimmy Coon rubbing nos
es and to see the clever way that Jim
my Coon pulled off an ear of corn
and picked off the little kernels and
ate them. Little Peter was sitting
up watching, his two little ears
twitching back and forth. Little Will
liam thought, swell, Peter Rabbit is
a cunning youngster and if he isn't
as smart as Jimmy Coon, he is so
soft and pretty, that it doesn't make
any difference if he is a little stu
pid.
But when that clever Jimmy Coon
began to pull off one ear after an
other, little William thought that he
had gone far enough. He stood up

"You forgot to take the pictures of

talked, and was frightened when l
had been watching him closely as
saw how dreadfully white he be
came. He was livid. With an awful
effort he seemed to pull himself to-
gether, as he asked in voice that
took away what little courage l had
left.
"You did what?"

tumbling of words, l could scarcely
drag the reply from my lips.
The stern look already had learn
ed to dread came in Everett's face,
only it was more stern than ever l
had seen it before.
81 absolutely forbid you to touch
anything in this house without my
permission"
Where the courage came from do
not know, but asked:
cam l not mistress Of the house?
Don't have anything to say?"
"No" he thundered, "You do not?'
He touched the bell.

Richard never raised his eyes to
me, yet l had caught look upon
his face something very like pity.

very minute, what do you thing hap
pened? Why there was cracking
sound in the bushes, and soft foot
step heard not very far away. Who
do you suppose it was? Why, that
dear Cousin ,Bruin came right out of
the woods and into that corn field.
Little Peter Rabbit scuttled away
as fast as he could, for he was scared
to death Every thing frightens him,
and so, of course, Cousin Bruin al
ways frightened him.
Now Cousin Bruin likes corn just
as we'll as anybody. He came up
right beside Jimmy Coon and he
ate corn as fast as he could, ard that
was pretty fast. He and Jimmy Coon
seemed to be the best of friends.
Cousin Bruin ate many more ears of
corn than Jimmy Coon ever thought
of eating. Little William was now
kneeling down in the grass, and he
never even thought of shouting to
scare Cousin Bruin at all
That was strange of little William.
But all little William thought of
was that Cousin Bruin might eat up
all the corn in the whole field, and
besides, he felt sure his mother
wanted him; so he crept softly away,
step by step on his tip toes, for he
thought it might injure Cousin
Bruins appetite to be disturbed at
mis- evening meal!
Little William ran home every
step of the way. He rushed into the
house shouting "a big bear is eat
ing up all our cornl Come and get
your gun and, this time, we will
catch him and-Mother, believe he
is your berry picker; and he has a
cunning little coon to help him, too!
Hurry quick, and we will get both or
those rascaIs." No do you think
they caught those two friends in the
corn field?
