REPENTANCE
e. d. Koontz
We err and sin;--and Their the SO

We err and sin,--and Their the sor-
row
Win break our hearts upon the NOR
row,
The head be bowed, the heart be sad
Man by intent is seldom bad,
1t is only God who is ever kind
Mans foreiving heart is hard to find,
He only sees the fault in you,
The one in self he viii not view,
The remorse Of sin is hard to bear
Temptation whispers everywhere,
LIES loaded dice the tempter's
bowl
Flow in and drown noble soul
It's fault was one besetting sin
To another's sinful past akin,
Ten-thousand years Of sleeping dust
Reborn again to sin and lust,
Heredity from grim deaths long
sleep,
Win dream and stir aud watch you
reap
That which was sown in years agone,
Must that ones fault be called your
own?
I'll bear the pain, the curse, the rod,
My soul will answer only God.
What is the soul from som esad star
Falls in my life to main and mar?
Can I by dint of heart or brain
Erase the curse and mark of Cain ?
God, / tried to do my best,
Ny spirit broke beneath the test
Temptation wins-my soul has lost
Remorse's sting must count the cost
The loaded dice again are thrown
Temptations seeds again have grown
IT'S now / need my truest friend,
With, Love and Faith and Hope to
lend,
God give me strength to stem the
tide
In which million souls have died,
God give me power to fight and win
Against my own besetting sin,
Withhold mans judgement curse and
rod
Ny soul shall answer only God.
Only those who have a fault know
the power Of temptation; only those
who have been tempted and fallen
know the bitterness Of repentance
Many people spend lot of time pray
ing for others, that is much need for
themselves.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS

Selected by R. L. Tallman from the
Successful Farming, E. 7. Meredith
Editor. April 2Sth 1919.
Some distinguished men are copy
ing the idea that nations can league
together to prevent future wars. The
very existence Of the United States
is our answer to that. So is the
United Kingdom of Great Britain
which is league of nations each with
its own government.
The colonies came together for mu-
tual protection. They have succeed
ed even in putting down rebellion.
Once the rebellious ones were shown
the advisabilty of staying hitched,
we have no further trouble. So with
the league of nations, prompt punish
ment of the offender would settle the
question. 1t ought to be, it must be
made impossible for any nation to
massacre another nation as did the
Turks in their endeavor to blot out
the Armenians with Kaiser Wilhelm's
consent and assistance, or the exter-
mination of race as was attempted
by the Germans in the case of Poland
and Alsace-L Lorraine. Never again
should the nations of the world stand
by and let such things occur. They
will not if leagued together. They
will if they resume their old indepen-
dent existence.
We muse concede that some will
look with disfavor upon scrapping all
| the war equipment we have on hand
They want to perpetuate the military
camps. They seem unable to learn
that nations without preparation
have whipped nations that had beer
preparing for war for long time
The preparedness argument has beer
knocked to pieces by recent events
The most of us want to abolish
war. We want peace--an unarmec
peace the world over. We want te
pay our war debts and quit. VIZ

again. A league of nations seems
to be the only answer. We have suct
league in actual operation now. i
would be foolish to go back to con
ditions of national independence ant
suspicion which brought on the war
Let us cultivate the brotherhood o.
man, which can best be done by re
moving the barriers between nations
by expressing confidence in on'
another by unfortified borders.
This is one of the great principles
for which President wilson has stood
and has already won the approval o
some of the leading nations. But on
own Congress should know that tn
people Of the United States are for
league of nations to enforc peace
When the time comes, let the farmers
wishes be made known.

Motives.

Mr. Gladstone was once heard to
remark that if all the wits of men
were to be united in one brain, that
man would be unable to appraise
with perfect justice any single moral
action. 1.-THE shades of the rainbow"
he wrote, "are not so nice, the sands
of the seashore are not such a multi
tude, as are the subtle, shifting,
blending forms of thought and of cir
cumstances that go to determine the
character of one act But there is one
that seeth plainly and juISeih
righteously."

live AT HOME
AND FEED YOURSELF

Columbia, May 3.--A gigantic "Live
at Home" and Feed Yourself" move
ment those behind it claim will rcvo-
lutlonize the farming industry in the
South is being launched among the
tarmcres of the cotton belt. The
South Carolina Cotton Association is
planning to father the movement in
this State.

yesterday the first gun in the big
drive was fired when letter went to

ing orders TO the West for grain hav
ana foods tufts after this season. Each
cltiIen who signs the pledge also
pledges himself to use every effort
TO get all other farmers to sign it.
Regarding the movement a state
ment given out by J. Skottows Wan
namaker, chairman of the central
committee of the South Carolina Cot
ton Association, says:
In the various sections of the cot
ton belt, farmers are signing pledpos
so'cmnly binding themselves to dis
continue sending orders to the West
for grain hay and foodstuffs after
thlS season, to use every effort to dis
continue this practice and urging all
formers to enlist in the movement
w" have asked the cnarmcn Of the
various county cotton associations in
this State if they will have such
pledges circulated among the farmers
OF their respective counties.
I'VE believe that this movement,

try in the South and will mean more
for the South than any movement that
has been lnunched in this section in
a decade. There is no reason WHY the
south should plant all of its land in
cotton, sell same at small profit, if
indeed it is sold at a profit. and then
turn around and send all Of it's money
out West, for foodstuffs, right at
home.
'ff the farmer raises his own food
stuffs, he will have to curtaiI his cot
ton acreage. This means very hirh
price for cotton. The high price will
mean that he will get as much for

Londoners Opposed Bridge.

When the population of London was
well ever a million and its houses lay
for miles on each side of the river it
was apparently well content with one
London bridge. At length, In 1874,
Westminster was seized with the de-
sire to have a bridge of its own. Ap-
plication was made to parliament for
powers, only to encounter the fiercest
opposition from the city, the 10000
watermen, the inhabitants of South
wark, and the west country bargemen.
all of whom implored the commons TO
protect them against this new enemy.
The result was that the bridge was NOT
built till 1850. Blackfriars, at first
called Pitts bridge, was finished I'm
1869, at a cost of 100000, betrayed
by tolls. Waterloo was opened on the
second anniversary of the great battle.

in person, accompanied by his royal
brother, the duke of York, the dixie OF
Wellington and many other distin-

In the Balkan war, EpiruS again
was a bone of contention, and with

turned to Greece, while another secs

istenca unde" Prince William of Wied.
it again lapsed into anarchy and since
then no men;ber of European royalty
has sought the job of governing thS
turbulent tribes.
Again, in ne world, war, it came
into prominence, and it is cOnsidered
probable that the Greek claim t0
northern Epirus will be allowed. OF
the same race anC the same tradf
lions, there appears to be a general
concession on the part of other na-
lions, that Apirus again should be a
part of Greece.

QUAINT OLD CORNISH TOWN
Picturesque St. Ives Graphically De.
scribed by Writer In Chi
cago Newspaper.

Built close by the side of its tiny
bay the little fishing town of Saint
Ives huddles over the water, blend
ing into the rough gray Cornish land
scape. The tiny cottages jumbleG
along the narrow, crooked streets are
built of rough stone hewn from ma
tive rocks. The quaint old streets
themselves are paved with huge ir~
regular slabs of the same stone.
In the tiny, crescent-shaped harbor
the fishing boats rest at anchor dur
ing the day, their tall bare masts.
stripped of canvas, reaching upward
to the sky. Huge white gulls, Saint
Ives own birds, hover and flutter
among the boats and over the water,
the murmur of their hundreds of
wings like the voice of the sleepy old
town.
By the side of their cottage doors or
down by the piers the gruff, brown
fishermen sit and smoke, mending
their nets and telling tales of the old
days when the pirates of. Saint Ives
were the terror of the seas; old yarns
that their grandfathers told them, the
grandchildren will tell again. They
themselves are bits of the scenery and
quaint Cornish atmosphere, gruff and
weather beaten, but kindly and gener-
Gus. AT night their tiny boats put out
to sea like a flock of birds, and the
fisherman's working day begins.
The little town smells of the salt
sea and of the fish drying in each
spotless kitchen. Above each door
hang wet oilskins and huge sea boots
the fisherman uniform. The air.
often heavy with mists and fog, is new
ertheless sweet and clean.
Above the old town built on orderly
modern terraces, the new st. Ives
perches in arrogant disdain of it's hum
bic sister at it's feet. But the little
town itself, supremely unconscious OF
disdain or interest, works on and COS
sips as it has done for centuries.-Nik-
